SPIRIT OF VICTIMISATION: HOW TO GET RID OF IT

Here are 3 steps to get rid of the spirit of victimisation and a verse to carry with you for the rest of your life. Apply and see the results achieved.

We are talking about the “spirit of victimisation”, which accompanies many people and is characterised by the habit of blaming people for their problems, failures, and inability to overcome obstacles. It stops the person from moving forward. This spirit manipulates them and also makes them manipulative. They end up turning people against each other and end up becoming unbearable.

We talked previously about how to identify a person who has the spirit of victimisation. And today, we will talk about how you should get rid of the spirit of victimisation.

There are 3 steps to get rid of the spirit of victimisation.

The first step is to recognise that you have the spirit of victimisation and understand that this problem is spiritual. The expression “spirit of victimisation” is not mere words. Literally, the person is being controlled by an evil spirit. Many people who heard the previous message said: “I didn’t know I had the spirit of victimisation”. It’s because it blinds the person. You will not overcome a spiritual problem with physical weapons. You have to strengthen your spirit, which is hostage to the spirit of victimisation. You must strengthen yourself in God, with His Word, seeking His Spirit to cast out this spirit of victimisation from your life.

The second step is to refuse to think that you are a victim. Refuse this idea: “I am unlucky”. Refuse variations of this type of thinking. Think about it: If we assess the human condition closely, we would conclude that we have all been victims of other people. Perhaps you have already been a victim only because of the family you were born in, which did not provide you with the conditions, or you suffered abuse. So, everyone is a victim in one way or another. But this is the secret: if I act like I’m not, I’ve already put myself above most people because I’m not giving in to this weakness, this blockage in my mind that tells me I can’t. I’ll already be on top. And isn’t that what you see with successful stories? People who had all reasons to give up but didn’t. I’m going to worry about what I can do; I’m not going to worry about what I can’t do. I can’t change the outside world, but I can change my world.

The third step is to read this every day:

“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written: “For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us” (Romans 8:31-37).

Paul, very familiar with injustice, thought this. You must read this passage daily to free yourself from the spirit of victimisation. That has to be your mindset. Assume your stance as “more than a conqueror”. And you will never again be a victim, a failure; you will never again use your mouth to make excuses.
