question:
Why can't I
get my healing / deliverance / blessing?
probable
answer: There is another god in the way. Have it
stand down. Don't have a witness oppose the Lord. An
opposing testimony is contrary to Romans 10:10.
stand down:
- To leave a
witness stand (Law).
- To withdraw, as
from a political contest.
- To go off
duty.

American Heritage® Dictionary”)
question:
How can I make the adversary stand down?
answer:
Rely on the Lord Jesus Christ wholeheartedly.
For "Anyone who calls on the name
of the Lord will be saved." Romans 10:13 (NLT)
"For
it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and
it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved." (Romans
10:10 [NLT])
One who relies on the Lord will remove the idols
(false
gods) from their land. One who relies on the Lord will have
evidence that they have done so. Additionally, the book of
Philippians teaches
our reliance will be accompanied by prayer, supplication together with
thanksgiving. This action is both manifestation of belief with
one's heart as well as verbal confession.
"Do not be over-anxious about anything, but
by prayer and earnest pleading, together with thanksgiving, let your
request be unreservedly made known in the presence of God."
(Philippians 4:6 [Weymouth New Testament])
question:
Been there, done that. Why am I still bound?
answer:
Love God and love your neighbor wholeheartedly. When one strives
to do
this, they will be empowered by the Spirit of God. The Spirit
will lead you to all truths. Even if one has evidence of receipt
of the Holy Ghost, if one is not loving wholeheartedly, one will ignore
the voice of the Lord.
If you make any request of me in my
name, I will do it. "If you love me, you will obey my
commandments. And I will ask the Father, and He will give you
another Advocate to be for ever with you--the Spirit of truth. (John
14:14-16 [Weymouth New Testament])
Then an expounder of the Law stood
up to test Him with a question. "Rabbi," he asked, "what shall I do to
inherit the Life of the Ages?" "Go to the Law," said Jesus; "what
is written there? how does it read?" "`Thou shalt love the Lord
thy God,'" he replied, "`with thy whole heart, thy whole soul, thy
whole strength, and thy whole mind; and thy fellow man as much as
thyself.'" "A right answer," said Jesus; "do that, and you shall
live." (Luke 10:25-28 [Weymouth New Testament])
question:
What's with the vague answer?
answer:
The Lord does not lie and has given many Dos and Don’ts (which are
based on us loving each other). He does not ambiguously
contradict Himself. Some prayers can’t be answered because there
are various actions that contradict the Lord’s will. (Have
those gods stand down). If
one wants the Lord, one just needs to seek Him sincerely. If one
is confused, the Lord will bring clarity. However, if one
stubbornly is
operating outside the principles of love, one likely will be
confounded. When one seeks the Lord without hypocrisy He will be
found along with His many blessings for those that obey
Him.
