9 R's of FREEDOM
1. Recognize your
sin, behavior or attitude problem. (Hebrews 5:14)
2. Take
Responsibility for it - stop blaming
others. (Luke 15:21; Psalm 51:2-4)
3. Repent. By
an act of the will and decide to turn away
permanently from it with God's strengthening
power.“Reckon yourself to be dead
indeed to sin but alive to God in Christ
Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 6:11)
4. Receive
pardon for your sins through the atoning
sacrifice of Jesus and His cleansing blood. “The
blood of Jesus Christ His son goes on
cleansing us form all sin” (1 John 4:7)
Receive the life of the Spirit to overcome
all problems. “Greater is He
that is in us that he that is in the
world” (1 John 4:4)
5. Renounce.
Face the sin you have recognized e.g. fear,
harshness etc. and say: “I renounce
everything you represent in my life and in
the generations before me. I command all evil
spirits associated with these to leave in
Jesus’ Name.”
6. Remove.
Remove, Destroy, Burn, and Bury. That which I
remove does not exist. “But now also
put off all these things: anger wrath, malice
blasphemy, shameful speech out of your mouth.
Do not lie to one another, having put off the
old man with his deed.” (Colossians
3:8-9) “ For you ought to put off the
old man (according to your way of living
before) who is corrupt according to the
deceitful lusts.” (Ephesians 4:22)
7. Resist.
Power to resist is in direct relationship
with your obedience. “Submit yourself
to God resist the
devil and he will flee.” (James 4:7)
Appropriate all He has done on the cross and
take control! “Pulling down
imaginations and every high thing that exalts
itself against the knowledge of God, and
bringing into captivity every thought to the
obedience of Christ.” (2 Cor. 10:5)
8. Rebuke any
evil spirit that seeks to reinforce the sin
and sickness in your life. Cancel agreement
with the thoughts from the ‘Father of
lies’ and spirits doing his bidding and
command the spirits behind those negative,
fearful, sinful thoughts to leave in
Jesus’ name.
9. Rejoice
that you are cleansed and restored and stand
in your freedom. “Rejoice in the Lord
always and again I say, rejoice” (Phil
4:4) “For freedom Christ has set us
free; stand fast therefore and do not submit
again to a yoke of slavery.” (Gal. 5:1)
“ And the ransomed of the Lord shall
return and come to Zion with songs and
everlasting joy shall be upon their heads:
they shall obtain joy and gladness and sorrow
and sighing shall flee away.” (Isaiah
35:10)
