What Are You in Agreement With?

MELISSA GABLER—Here is an example of how the Holy Spirit began to reveal how I had been in agreement with certain things in my life. He showed me that my fear and unbelief was rooted in a demon doctrine I was acquainted with years and years ago, and that is the belief that everything will be better when we get to heaven. Now, that is not something that I keep in my conscious mind at this point in my life. I made a decision a while back not to dwell on going to heaven but rather to spend the rest of my life being focused on what He has me on this earth to do. However, the teaching of things having to get worse so we can get to heaven for things to be better created a filter in me that resulted in unbelief and fear when faced with challenges. It even filtered the way I read the Bible. It made me look at most of the Bible as poetry or metaphor and I realize now there is very little of that and a whole lot of literal. For instance. I didn’t realize that I was navigating current challenges in my life and body through that filter. I was falling into the demon doctrines of aging and what that looks like until I started reading passages like this WITHOUT THAT FILTER: Philippians 3:20-21 “But our citizenship is in heaven, and it is from there that we are expecting a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. He will transform the body of our humiliation that it may be conformed to the body of his glory, by the power that also enables him to make all things subject to himself.” Before the filter got dealt with I would have seen this scripture as saying ‘we are citizens of heaven so we’re expecting the Savior, WHEN HE RETURNS, to transform our bodies.’ Here’s how I see it now: Our citizenship is in heaven RIGHT NOW because this scripture says it out right in a present tense not a future tense and Ephesians 2:6 says “and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places, in Christ Jesus:” This is not poetry it’s a literal, right now statement.
