JEBUSITES
The Jebusites were a nation who were motivated by the exploitation of others. Their name means “to trample down”.
What does this look like in your life? This looks like:
- exploiting others
- immorality
- humiliating others to make them feel small
To overcome the Jebusites and remove the power of immorality from our lives we can Repent, Remove and Replace. We repent to turn away from wrong thinking and false belief, we ask God to remove by His Holy Spirit and we replace with God’s Truth as found in scripture. This freedom can be accessed by surrendering again to the Lord and setting aside your body, soul and mind as the temple of God.
SCRIPTURES
Here are key scriptures you can declare over your life;
1 Corinthians 6:9-10(NLT)
Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.
Romans 12:2(NLT)
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
PRAYER
Here is a prayer that will help you to move into freedom from the weakness of the past life;
Prayer Guide: Father thank you for your redeeming love, love that extends beyond sin, love that releases light in the darkness, love that disables shame and fear. I ask that you enter my heart fully, no door closed off to you, would you dwell in me that I may walk in fullness of freedom and goodness that you desire for me. I ask that you would keep my heart accountable to those things that are not of your heart or of your Kingdom, that you would give me courage and boldness to share in my sin that I may be set free from it. Father I ask that you give me a heart that would carry and release life and a spirit that would remain steadfast in your truth and promises.
