She had a disabling spirit (Luke 13:11).
And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour. (Matthew 9:20-22).).
This woman Walked everyday with her head down. That’s what people who are disabled do, they walk with their head down, signifying defeat and hopelessness. Literally she was bowing down (giving in) and allowing her situation to rule her life, mind and ultimate destiny.
A disabling spirit blinds you the hope that is set before you
A disabling spirit magnifies the problem and blinds us to the solution
A disabling spirit makes you feel less than competent and never good enough
A disabling spirit causes your ministry to be focused on issues, stuff around you and in you
A disabling spirit causes you to question the very thing God has in store for you
A disabling spirit blinds you to possibility
… why because you’ve TOUCHED the wrong things.
like teachings that are of the law rather than that which is of Faith in Christ Jesus. By that I mean we have taken ‘issues’ and Made them ‘doctrine’ Like the:
The Deacon issue
The woman preacher issue
The tything issue
The long hair issue
The beard issue
The prophecy issue
The eldership issueThings that are DISABLING our witness and weaking our testimony of the true apostolic witness that was demonstrated by the apostles. the WOMAN the church, is bound and found begging for healing for things that have caused the very ISSUE in the body. ISSUES
The issues of these things are crippling our walk and testimony, when we are truly called to manifest the life of Christ ion this mortal body. we are called top preach higher things. The Word of LIFE. and the very reason why many cannot preach LIFE is because they are bound with the very ISSUES that they claim others indeed, have! What Is immobilising our faith are the very teachings that put up barriers between us and others.
While itinerating in America. I too the trouble to visit a Pentecostal church in the sticks, the journey too me and hour away form my home at at the time. I knew the church was small but nevertheless My heart was to go and encourage those who many never have had a stranger from Wales come into their place of worship. I opened the door and was immediately approached by the Pastor who gazed down at my left hand, which I thought was rather strange and before even shaking my hand or asking me who I was or where I was from began and twenty minit lecture on why I should not wear a ring! Needless to say i never went back. their holiness is a barrier to salvation and connecting to the believers let alone the lost.
Friend we have to take our issues to Jesus
We have to make Jesus our Issue!
This woman touched Jesus. That’s what you have to do today, touch Jesus.
How do you get rid of a disabling spirit?
Press through the clutter, the chatter, the crowd and the circumstances and ….. Touch Jesus!

Much of Facebook is in a rut. a big rut. Apostolic’s speak of two things the end of the world and debate with others regarding he trinity, neither of such are purely defending the faith. There is more to our faith than end times which always takes on a negative tone and the wrongfulness of the trinity. I think about the many things we don’t speak about. Faith, miracles, divine healing, deliverance, the kingdom here and now, dominion, success in life and ministry and a host of other topics that would keep our faith fresh and interesting.
The secret of the early apostles was that they could do just that. Keep their faith fresh and interesting! Signs and wonders accompanied the word and they won cities and nations to the faith. Their faith impacted the lives of countless souls, why we today fail to impact our neighborhoods let alone cites and nations and we have technology and global access too.
It’s not that we are not focused it’s more than that. Many are focused on the wrong things, debates on what to wear and what we ought not to wear, women preaching, yes or no! So these guys spin their wheels and wag their tails. For me I say, stick to your mission, winning souls. and when that’s your focus your mind, spirit and message will turn accordingly to be an influencer not a debater, a pastor not a self righteous prophet, an influencer not a sole gospel trader, a winner of men not a ostracis0r of them.
It’s time to turn a corner and do better work.
That is why I blog.
Paul
Every winner finds a barrier between him and the finish line. The barrier be it a wall or mountain exists to present to you the requirement’s for greatness. The requirements have to be discovered, you have to hit a brick wall, you have to get writers block, you have to experience the point of quitting. Only then can we see what is required of a winner. Its at this point you have to educate yourself with information others know not of, then you can do what others cannot do. You have to disciover what separates you from failure and connects you to success.
Jesus was at the finish line, he had to fight a battle no one else could fight and no one else could win, a fist of its kind, no one else had arrived at this point before, no one else could, take on this task, yet he could and the scriptures tells us that “he went one step further’ matthew 26:39)
Ask yourself what’s my limit today, what’s my brick wall?
Whats my next step?
What steps have I yet to take that have not taken before?
Maybe you’ll have to pray like Jabez, ‘God enlarge my steps!’.
Maybe you have to be enlarged before God enlarges your steps. enlarges to work with folks you would not normally work with. Enlarged to associate and keep company with those of different doctrine yet they too, like you, have a heart after God. It could be that the Lord wants you to set aside your preconceived prejudices to those of other denominations and start touching them with your heart and soul. Peer had to be enlarged before the Lord could use him to be an apostle to the gentiles, what he thought was untouchable and unholy God had to show him that it was he who had to reach them. (Acts 10;28)….the things commanded to him by God (v33). Could it be that our own prejudice is hindering the favor of God on our own lives? Could it be that our own unwillingness to work with brethren outside of your denomination is hindering your greatest day in ministry? God looks for humility and if its not to be found then we ourselves hinder the work of the Lord done first in us.No amount of praying for enlargement can make God promote us unless we first have the humility to obey him. Don’t hinder your prayers! Obey the Lord, not man.
Being brought up as an AOG in UK I have had the privilege of working and ministering in many different denominations preaching revivals and speaking on many topics yet my conviction which i have always made known is my faith in the one true Lord and the apostolic message, I even know some apostolic’s who think this is not possible yet i tell them I have credentials with charismatic and well as apostolic organisations and the Lord has granted me favor for which I’m eternally grateful to cross these walls and do his will.
Every occupation has its barriers. what you know about them separates you from those who trade in mediocrity and those who trade in greatness. Now take that one step more that is required to being yourself salvation and maybe others too. 2022 is dependent on you. If God finds you ready, he will choose you. you’re the candidate for enlargement and engage meant on another level with great men and big nations. There’s so much more for you to do. quit limiting yourself and obey God first
