Cutting off the root by the energy of faith

This is an unusually long post — but shortening it would mean making it shallow. Can you invest 10 minutes in yourself?
No root develops without a seed. And no seed comes to life untilit is dropped into and cared for in good soil. A seed has to be planted andembraced by the soil. Then the roots come.
So, there is a source and a receiver. The source is the seed, the receiveris the soil, and the result is the root, which gives rise to a tree and itsfruit.
Without a transmitter and a receiver, nothinghappens.
The light of the sun illuminates the planets and the stars, but spaceitself remains dark. Why is that? Because it has no physical body to act as a receiverof the sun’s light. Not that there is no light in space. In fact, the sun’slight reaches every corner of the galaxy — but it is only seen when the body ofa receiver reflects it.
The same thing occurs with electricity, with radio waves, theInternet, a telephone, the wind, and every other form of energy andcommunication that exists. In order for them to work, there needs to be a receiver.
Right now, you can read this text only because a piece of paper ora computer screen produces an image with letters on it, and your eyes transmitthis to your brain — which is the receiver of this message, and which gives youunderstanding.
If I speak, you only hear me because my vocal cords produce asound. Your ears hear it and transmit it to your brain — which is the receiverof my voice and which makes sense of those sounds.
Energy is present all the time in every place— but it only has an effect when there is a connection between transmitter andreceiver.
It’s no different in the spiritual world.
But the devil knows this. Sadly, he knows only too well how to sowhis bad seed in human hearts — which, we might as well admit, are easy andwilling receivers of all that is bad, and normally resistant to what is good.
Because of this, the devil has directed all types of negativeenergy toward mankind. He does this all the time — with you, with me, witheveryone. Only those who learn to “unplug the receiver” and reject the negativeenergy of evil, are unaffected by it.
On one hand, evil emits its negative waves in the hope thatsomeone will receive them, but on the other hand, Good also emits its positiveenergy. Faith is the receiver of the energy of God, transmitted by way of His Word.When His Word is spoken, those who believe (receive it) are blessed.
Look at this wonderful example:
And the apostles said to the Lord, “Increase ourfaith.”
So the Lord said, “If you havefaith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be pulled up bythe roots and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.”
Luke 17.5,6
When a blessing does not come, or when a prayer is notanswered, we normally think it is because our faith was too small. But that’swrong. The size of our faith does not affect anything. What does have an effect is whether or not our faith accepts the Wordof God 100%!
This faith without doubt, 100% receiver of the Word ofGod, gives us authority to say to any problem, “Be pulled up by the roots andbe planted in the depths of hell!” — and it will be done!
Any and all bad roots in your life can be cut off bythis faith. This energy of God penetrates where psychology cannot, wheremedicines cannot reach, and where human intelligence is not enough. It can doanything, because all things are possible for those who believe — to those whoreceive the Word of God without doubt!
Right now, there where you are, you can receive thisenergy that I am talking about!
From now on, you must be aware of this battle between these twosources of energy that are constantly being directed at you: the source of Goodand the source of evil.
So, whenever a source of evil is sent your way by means of atransmitter ¾ be it a friend, a doubt in your mind, a voice,bad news, a letter, an e-mail, a religious person, an angel, a demon, or evenme ¾ do not be a receiver of that negativeenergy!
Refuse it and order it to be planted in the depths of hell — far,far away from you.
This is how you should deal with your bad roots from now on ¾ grudges, pride, fear, and all the rest.
If you do you will see huge breakthroughs!
Next Sunday, we will start teaching you how to put down new roots. Don’t miss it.You will only be safe when there are new and good roots in your life.
