THE SUFFERING THAT YOU ENDURED WILL HELP LEAD OTHERS OUT OF THEIR SUFFERING No one likes to suffer but the Lord uses it to ultimately strengthen and anoint you to help lead others later out of their suffering. Personal experience with pain is hard but what is learned from it is extremely valuable in helping others overcome their suffering. Joseph suffered at the hands of his jealous older brothers who wanted to kill him but later sold him into slavery to some Egyptians. He worked through that rejection and betrayal and developed a strong character and integrity and ultimately received favor and complete trust from his master Potiphar. Unfortunately he suffered again when Potiphar’s wife tried having sex with him but he did the right thing and ran from her only to have her lie about him and accused him of wanting sex with her. He was unjustly thrown into prison and suffered for at least 2 years and some say it was up to 13 years. He could have been very bitter and angry with God for doing the right thing and yet being falsely accused and imprisoned but stayed in faith. Finally he was brought before the Pharoah…

THE MORE EXTREME YOUR SUFFERING THE MORE EXTREME YOUR ANOINTING People who have been hurt greatly are often the most anointed by the Lord to help others.

But you must first have forgiven all who hurt and wounded you or else demons will have rights to torment you.  Matt 18:21-35 If you suffered from an abusive father or mother and you have been able to forgive then you will be anointed to help others who have abusive fathers and mothers.  If you struggled with drug or alcohol addiction then when you are healed you can help others who struggle with it to get delivered.  If you were sexually abused or exposed to porn and overcame then you will help others who are struggling with sexual addiction or purity.  If you had everyone who hated you and was jealous then you will help others to forgive those who hate them and are jealous.  If you…

Many of God’s strongest warriors are now enduring some of the most painful situations in their lives.  Pressure from all sides, receiving condemning, judgmental and harsh words from people in the church, emotional abuse from their spouse, disrespect from their children, control and manipulation from their employer, city, state and national government and having all their enemies’ gossip, betray and lie about them, dealing with sickness and having hardly any money left in their bank account.  You can do EVERYTHING correct as God has directed you - not thinking that you can endure one more trial - and yet be in God’s perfect will.  All the great warriors for Christ suffered and were persecuted, all the while doing exactly what God wanted them to do. We are all being stretched to our maximum in order to be stronger for the upcoming months of war against the enemy in the world as well as showing God who we really are and what we are made of.  It is always important to ask the Lord if there is anything that needs to be loosed from us (pride, unforgiveness towards someone, sexual impurity, etc.) but sometimes you can be doing everything that the…
