Detach from Toxic People: A Path to Emotional Freedom

lastwordrecovery
.

“Don’t pay attention to everything people say – you may hear someone insulting you.”

(Ecclesiastes 7:21)

Without judgment, repulsion or excuse, you gently detach from people who exhibit little concern for the pain they cause or the negative impact they have on their fellow humans.

You do not join in with those who belittle or diminish another’s worth.

You remove yourself from environments which are darkened by oppression, hate, disrespect, and intolerance. You do not allow yourself to be impacted by their insults. You choose to ignore their words so you don’t get caught up in defensive arguments or become ensnared by anger and resentment.

You realize these painful experiences often bring emotional results. You don’t understand why people are so awful to each other.

In quiet times, as you vent to God in sorrowful prayers, He hears and understands.

The demeaning and insulting expressions that offend you, are the same ones that offend Him too.

Footprints along the sand being washed by ocean waves during sunset

“There is no one on earth who does what is right all the time and never makes a mistake.”

(Ecclesiastes 7:20)

You are learning to release your mistakes and failings into the safe grace of God.

Regret and guilt are often troubling, but as you share your cringe-worthy memories with God, you find a sense of release. Your thoughts are turned toward His forgiveness and mercy, rather than your own failures and remorse.

You receive clemency from Christ, who wipes the slate clean. You understand this is not a once-in-a-life-time free pass, but it is a gift of grace, providing you with a fresh start whenever you need one, throughout your entire life.

When you talk things out with God, regrets are resolved, and guilt is eliminated.

Knowing that Christ has liberated you from any past mistakes, you are overwhelmed with gratitude rather than guilt.

The Role of Prophecy in Today’s World

lastwordrecovery

“Nathan told David everything that God had revealed to him.”

(2 Samuel 7:17)

Nathan was a prophet who was assigned to be the King’s advisor during David’s reign over Israel. It was a powerful position with great responsibility.

Like Nathan, you have been given a gift of prophecy from the Holy Spirit. You receive messages of hope and encouragement to offer the people and times in which you live. This gift will position you in the presence of powerful people who need to hear what God has revealed to you.

Through specific life events, your spiritual intuition has been fine-tuned. You have insight and awareness which go beyond natural perception. It is quite possible that many of the messages you receive from the Holy Spirit will prove to alter the course of history.

In detailed, methodical steps, the Spirit is bringing you to higher levels of understanding. You comprehend God’s desire for protecting this planet and the precious souls that inhabit it.

God’s intention is that you share His words of restoration and guidance with His precious children who haven’t been able to hear His voice for themselves.

You may be called to write, speak, or both so you will receive opportunities to develop these skills in very ordinary ways.

You may not realize the magnitude of your prophetic messages, but as each word of hope falls into place, the ripple effect expands beyond natural limitations.

“The Lord who sits on the throne will protect them. They will never be hungry again. They will never be thirsty again. The sun will not hurt them. No heat will burn them.”

(Revelation 7:16)

Your physical body is aging, but your spirit is timeless and eternal.

Because of your belief in Jesus and the power of His resurrection, you have been given the Holy Spirit, who lifts you to new waves of enlightenment.

Springing up with living water, your spirit rushes like a river, creating the current which propels your physical form to each new assignment from God.

In partnership with the Spirit, you generate supernatural energy. This effect infuses the atmosphere surrounding you with a positive charge. This is why you are known as one who lights up the room wherever you go.

In this way, you are living inside-out, using the power produced by the Spirit to carry you from your current human experience into your future spiritual existence.

Someday, your human form will fall away, and you will become fully alive in a dimension so dazzling, it is beyond human words or mortal imagination.

In this glorious realm of eternal life, you will no longer experience hunger or thirst. You will never again experience the discomfort of earthly elements or human distress.

Understanding Humility: A Stealth Mission from God

lastwordrecovery

“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and turn from their cruel ways, I will hear from heaven. I will forgive their sin and heal their land.”

(2 Chronicles 7:14)

In a world filled with ambition and competition, you often feel out of sync. There seems to be little value placed on the extraordinary virtue of humility. This causes you deep grief.

You are called to be humble and gentle. Gifted with that anointing, you walk through many of your God-given assignments virtually unnoticed.

Since humility often transforms into pride once it is recognized, truly humble people rarely see it in themselves.

Humility requires a great deal of divine intervention because most humans do not find it very satisfying. There is no humble-meter which measures the level of humility a person has attained.

There is rarely any human praise or worldly reward for your commitment to the virtue of humility.

Your God-given assignments are often stealth missions, guided and monitored by the Spirit of God. It is through your humility and gentleness that His compassion is revealed to those who need it most.

His grace is poured out on you as you walk in humility. Covered by this supernatural protective layer, you are able to complete each assignment without the distraction of people-pleasing or blind ambition.

Set Apart for Significance: The True Meaning of Holy

lastwordrecovery
Glowing footprints light a winding trail through a serene meadow at dusk

Have the people make themselves holy for me. Tell them, ‘Set yourselves apart to the Lord.’

(Joshua 7:13)

The word holy has often been mistakenly used for someone who is grim, dutiful, and devout; one who maintains a high standard of pious behavior and has little patience for those who don’t.

However, in several scriptural passages, the word holy is defined as that which is uncommon or extraordinary.

You have been declared holy by the Creator of the Universe. God has stated that your existence is extraordinary, and your life is far from common.

There is significance in everything that you do. There is nothing ordinary or common about you.

You are holy. You are wisdom. You are free to talk openly with your Creator. Your life in Christ is a spring of living water, making ripple effects on the world around you.

Every place your feet touch becomes sacred ground, because you carry the Creator of Life within you.

The significant impact you make during your years on earth will pale in comparison to the lasting effect imprinted on the planet because you walked here.

God said, “I have been with you everywhere you have gone. I have defeated your enemies for you. I will make you as famous as any of the great people on the earth.”

God’s words that are spoken, written, or sung by you will be a widely recognized proclamation of God’s victory and grace. Because of your fame, there will be many people who will have the opportunity to receive what you deliver.  You, as God’s chosen vessel, will bring healing and harmony to a hurting world during one of its most difficult times in history.

Why Ask God If He Already Knows What You Need?

lastwordrecovery

Yes, everyone who continues asking will receive. He who continues searching will find. And he who continues knocking will have the door opened for him.

(Matthew 7:8)

It may seem puzzling to ask for something that God already knows you need, but the process of asking is neither a waste of time nor an act of redundancy.

Admitting lack is difficult for you. Self-sufficiency is a preferred trait in this current world of self-reliance. The act of asking might be viewed by some as needy or weak.

However, when you ask of God, He is pleased. Your simple request confirms a willing dependence upon Him. It reveals humility and shows that you honor Him as a more reliable resource than yourself. 

This brings you an enormous sense of adventure. Free from the weight of self-sufficiency, you are unrestrained by human limitations. You are empowered to accept any request from God, as He accepts each request from you.

This act of asking creates a partnership between you and your Source. It also reminds you who to thank when the requests are granted.

Your needs are met according to God’s riches, not your own. You do not seek security from a bank balance or a job title.  Your worth and value come from being a child of the King. You have been given the keys to His Kingdom and you are never more than a thought away from His presence.

As you continue your journey, your needs will be met in the right way and at the right time. Whatever you need will be provided; all you have to do is just ask.

Why Success is Not Self-Made but Co-Created

lastwordrecovery

The Lord said, “I don’t want them to brag that they saved themselves.”

(Judges 7:2)

You do not brag of being self-made or self-saved. You have a Maker who adores you and wants the best for you. He empowers you with vision and strength. He saves you from toxic relationships. He surrounds you with people who cheer you on.

You acknowledge you are made by divine design. You rely heavily on this Sacred Source who identifies your worth and maps out your destiny. 

There are times when you do not feel prepared to move forward, yet you push through to the goal anyway.

There are other times when you are sure of your direction and run headlong into success.

In either case, you do not brag that it was your own efforts alone which brought you to the finish line. You believe in giving credit where credit is due.

You recognize your co-workers, your friends, and your family as some of the main contributors to your success.

However, you also know that the primary source of your success is the partnership you enjoy with the Creator of the Universe and that is where you find true security.

Embracing Divine Peace: Your Inner Umpire

lastwordrecovery

“May the Lord look on you with favor and give you peace.” (Numbers 6:26)

The peace of God serves as an umpire in your life.  It is the ruling authority in all your decision-making processes.

You know that if you do not experience a supernatural sense of peace when assessing options, your inner umpire has called it a strike.

Rather than giving up, you wait patiently for the next opportunity to try a different approach. That way, when the next opportunity arises, you are on deck, ready to take another swing.

It may be difficult for you to describe this inner peace to others, since it is so deeply personal between you and your Creator.

While this peace is beyond human reasoning or logic, you are aware when it is present, and you rely on its direction.

As you continue your journey, with peace as your guide, you become more attuned to it. This sense of peace, given by God, is as keen as any of your physical senses.

You recognize and appreciate the peace of God because it is the single, most relevant source of direction that you know.
