The Father's Love

This teaching is essential to have a better relationship with God as our Father. It has been a huge help to many people we minister to for healing and deliverance. Satan wants us to stay in a place of hurt and denial about our hurts, but God want to help us to have a great relationship with Himself, ourself, and others. This teaching helps to break down one of the first hurts in our lives, rejection.

Welcome to the presentation of 'The Father's Love.' In this presentation, we will explore the power and beauty of The Father's Love and what it means to have this in our lives.

WHEN PRAYING WE ADDRESS GOD AS OUR FATHER

Luke 11:1-2 - And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples. And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.

JESUS SHOWED US GOD BECAUSE HE WAS GOD - This is so profound!

John 14:8-10 - Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

Jesus came to show us the Father. When you saw Jesus, you saw the very nature of who God is. Jesus was a perfect representation of the Father.

COMPROMISED IMMUNE SYSTEM

Colossians 3:21 - Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

The Father's love from God is an unconditional, selfless, and compassionate love that strengthens us.

We see many people whose immune system is compromised because of a broken heart. Many associate God as a father with the failure of their earthly father.

• Many of us grew up with fathers that did not represent what God thinks towards us.
• Men are supposed to represent our Heavenly Father God to their wife first and then to their children. If a man does not represent God correctly, then the wife and the children are not sure that God as their father can even be trusted.
• It’s important to resolve our problems with our earthly father. I’m going to challenge you to resolve any problems or issues with your earthly father at end of this teaching. God will start to show you.

BROKENNESS

Proverbs 17:22 - A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.

The failure of an earthly father can cause a broken heart. A broken heart will lead to a compromised and hurt immune system. This will lead to a lot of sickness and disease.

I pray that our Father, in the name of the Lord Jesus, will come by His Holy Spirit today and begin the healing of your broken Heart.

****Even as we go through this teaching, you know, the Holy Spirit can come and work with you, right where you're sitting.

• Being separated from yourself can also be a route to many diseases. Many people don't like themselves as adults, because they weren't loved as children. They didn't receive the love of a father. Their earthly father may have said hurtful things.
• Hurtful speech can break a person's heart, when they hear this from a parent especially their earthly father.
• A broken heart is when you are damaged, rejected, abandoned, abused, or victimized verbally, physically, or sexually by an earthly father.

A father is supposed to love you. When they don’t, we do not learn how to live without fear. It's important to learn to live our lives and be vulnerable again, without fear.

For some of you, your father's represented a constant source of judgment, and disappointment. Your father had a problem with you. And that really made you feel afraid. If we don't talk about this, the problem gets buried, and you can go into denial. You may even pretend everything is okay. And yet you've still have a broken heart, and you're pretending.

It's time to open up and let the love of God and the love of the saints here, come and minister to you around this today. God wants you to be free from the hurts that you've been hiding because of this problem.

QUESTION

Ok, I want everyone to think about this question. I find a lot of people end up answering No to this question.

Did Your Dad Ever Say This to You:

I LOVE YOU!

Surprisingly, many people have never heard their father say to them, “I Love You!”

Many of you may have heard your father say:

• “I wish you were never born”.
• A daughter may have heard, “I wish you were a boy”.
• A son may have heard, “I wish you were a girl”.
• Or: “Why can’t you be more like your brother or sister”?
• Maybe you did not hear anything when you needed affirmation or security.

This is a problem in the world and in the church. It's a problem all around the world. It is passed one generation to the next generation.

When a father doesn't share this much needed affirmation with his son, then the son will not know how to be the spiritual head in his home when he has a family.

This is something that we need as men to start to grow into and practice so the next generation will not have these same demonic strongholds that a lot of us grew up in.

SOME MEN DON'T HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH EITHER THEIR EARTHLY OR HEAVENLY FATHER.

A Father's love offers acceptance, stability, security, affirmation, protection, guidance and comfort.

Isaiah 61:4 - And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.

This is God’s prophetic promise to us. This is for those that had a bad representation of an earthly father.

God is going to raise and build up our lives that have been desolate from a father that has hurt us, failed us, or simply been absent when we go to God for healing. But we have to be honest and not be in denial.

God doesn't want to get rid of you and find a new, perfect people. Because there are no new perfect people. He wants to work with you. Yeah, he will reach out into your generations and take what you are, and he will change you into his own image and to the image. You're not expendable to God. None of you are.

You may have had an earthly father that did not represent God the Father to you. Perhaps you've made your heavenly Father guilty of that association with your earthly father. Sometimes we try to pretend that we have it all together. And guess what, none of us really have it all together, do we?

GOD IS THIS TO US

Psalms 68:5 - A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.

If you want to see the Father's heart, you got to know that the Father's heart is first to the fatherless, and then to the widow.

Who are the fatherless?

Who are the widows?

You know that your father doesn't have to be missing from the home for God to consider you to be fatherless. He can be right there. But he's so busy with his work and busy with sports and doing whatever he's doing, that he doesn't have any time for a son or daughter. And a wife, now, a wife, if her husband is like that, and he doesn't have time for her God as our Father may look down and say, You're really a widow. I mean, I see your husband is living right there. But he is not representing my heart, to the family and I speak specifically to the wife. But honestly, that's the way it is, in many houses today, that the children are fatherless and the women are widows, because of the way their husband represents God to them by not being present.

HOW TO RECONCILE

When someone won't reconcile with you such as your father, that doesn't mean that it has to bind you and hold you as a prisoner.

When we have not had a good father or we have been let down by our earthly father, God is our perfect father to us.

You can reconcile with the person even though they won't talk to you. You can forgive them. Take it to your heavenly father, and you can tell your earthly father, when they're ready to reconcile. Tell God that you want to say the same things to them. There's always reconciliation, even if people don't want to reconcile with you. So today, if you have a breach/brokenness with your earthly father, we want to help you to reconcile that relationship with our heavenly father.

I want to talk little bit about how to reconcile. You know, your earthly father may have done something to you that you know, doesn't match scripture. What I'm asking you to do, is to recognize that something as an evil spirit spoke/manifested through your earthly father that was not him, and you have a right to hate the enemy/evil spirit that spoke that sin through him. But you don't have a right to hate your father. You can forgive your father, and still hate what he said. That is perfectly good with God as our father, but he doesn't want us to go into bitterness about this. He wants us to be reconciled to our fathers. And that's the way he looks at it.

You know, Jesus, when He was on the cross, what did he say? Father, forgive them. They don't even know what they're doing. See, what he was saying was? It was something in the people that they didn't even know was working/manifesting through them. And I want you to look at your earthly father, and separate him from something, a voice/ an emotion/ an action, that may have been speaking/manifesting/working through your earthly father.

The enemy, Satan and his evil spirits, want you to not recognize what they were doing through your earthly father. Satan's kingdom wants you to remember those hurtful words and actions that were spoken/done to you, way back when you were small or growing up, or even last week. And evil spirits will come to you, and they will reinforce those words/actions. There are replay trauma PTSD spirits will speak to your spirit in theta brainwave. And this will bring it over into your soul. And you will hear those words and see those actions over and over and over again.

Maybe we don't feel safe with God as our Father, because of the issues we had with an earthly father. And we want to even avoid talking to the Father because we avoided talking to  our earthly father. If your earthly father did not represent Him to you properly, you don't know your true father.

JESUS CAME TO HEAL THE BROKENHEARTED

Isaiah 61:1 - The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

What has you bound as a prisoner by your earthly father, so that you are not free?

How are we bound?

We can be bound as a prisoner by what our earthly father said, did to you, or was not there for you. But Jesus paid for all of our sins, and we can be free from the pain that our earthly father did to us. Jesus also came to show us the Father.

Jesus only said what the Father told him to say. John 12:49, 50 - For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak. 

Jesus only did what the Father commanded Him to do. John 14:31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.

Jesus only did what He saw the Father doing. John 5:19 - Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

You know, we may refer to our Heavenly Father, sometimes as Daddy or Papa. If you have not been healed from the damage of an earthly father, and I use the word for our heavenly Father, as Papa or Daddy, there's something on the inside of you that may grind because you you are making God, your heavenly Father, guilty by association with your earthly father. But I want to show you Papa or Daddy is found in the Bible in Romans 8:15. 

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again, to fear. But you have received the Spirit of adoption, where we cry, Abba, Father. In the Scripture, Abba means Daddy. So we will see that in the Scripture, we need to call out to our heavenly Father as Papa or Daddy when in times of need. Of course, we do this with total respect not out of disrespect.

GOD DECIDED TO MAKE YOU SONS AND DAUGHTERS

1 John 3:1 - Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

You see, God came and sought us out to be his child and He would be our Father. He came looking for us. I didn't go looking for Him when I was in sin willingly, He came and sought me out even though I was in sin. Aren't you glad that He came looking for you so that you could be His child.

I've accepted His offer to be his child and adopted into His love. You should to. Just accept His offer. He wants you as His child to love and make you feel loved and accepted.

At times I don't even feel like I have acted like I'm His child, but still calls me to Him so He can give me His love.

Our Heavenly Father is always faithful

James 1:27 - Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father i this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

You see that this verse shows what a good representation of your Father God is and how He thinks about you. You may have been fatherless growing up, but God the Father was always there as your real father. You may not have known it. I didn't realize God was there as my real father when my earthly father failed me at times. But God was there. And he was doing many things to make sure that I would become a son of God. And I'm so thankful that my real father in heaven was really taking care of me and looking out after me. I didn't even realize it. You may have not realized this also.

You see, I'm a child of God by faith. It's impossible to please God without faith. Your real father, that is God, wants you to talk to Him about stuff. You know, that's really all prayer is. It's talking to the Father about your stuff, and asking him to work, and God sends the Holy Spirit to lead us into all truth. John 14:16, John 14:26, and John 16:13

GOD IS OUR REFUGE. WHEN THE ENEMY TRIES TO MAKE TROUBLE, GO TO YOUR DAD

Psalm 62:8 - Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.

God is a refuge for you that you can always go. So when, when something happens in your home, and your earthly father doesn't represent God the Father to you, you can go to your real father. You always have a father in heaven that you can rush up to the seat of God. From your real father in heaven you can get your answers, you can get your love that He wants to pour out on you. 

How about this: When the enemy, Satan and his evil spirits, tries to blame and accuse you over about something that you're doing wrong in your life, we need to tell the devil that we're going to take it up with our dad, our real father. We can tell Stan and his kingdom that he can just go to the dry places because we're going to talk to dad about it. And He's gonna help us fix it if there is really a problem. That's how we deal with accusing spirits.

THE REAL HEART OF THE FATHER TELLS US THREE TIMES OUT LOUD WHAT HE WAS THINKING

• Matthew 3:13-17
• Matthew 17:1-5
• John 12:27-28

Matthew 3:13-17 - Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. 

This is how your earthly father should have spoken and acted towards you growing up to represent your heavenly Father.

Matthew 17:1-5 - And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

Again listen to how the Father in heaven speaks towards Jesus. He says it again. So you know this is how He wants to speak to you as a son or daughter.

John 12:27-28 - Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour. Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.

The Father honored the request. We have a promise, too that God gives to us.

WE HAVE THE SAME PROMISES. HE LOVES US.

Romans 8:30 - Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

A father's love is compassionate and kind without limits.

So if you have not been healed from damaged by an earthly father, you can start that process today. You know, we're still just kids. Do you think you are no longer a kid because you're like 30, 50, or 70? In terms of eternity, really, we're barely out of the womb. You are called children of God. And you should be.

How many of you guys, men, boys, would have given anything to hear your father say those words. "I love you." "You're a beloved Son, in who I am well pleased." Some of you girls would have given anything for your father, to come up to you and say those words, "You're my beloved daughter, in whom I am well pleased." Our heavenly Father wants you to hear those words. Jesus needed to hear them. And so do we.

I want to introduce you. To your real father, your heavenly Father is the father of all spirits. He is the Ancient of Days. Some of you may have more of a relationship with God as He is Jesus which is fine, but we also need to experience God as our Father. If you see, Jesus was as a Father when He said when you have seen me, you have seen the Father. We forget that God is our Father and will take care of us as a perfect and good father full of unconditional love.

If you have never repented and surrendered everything over to God, you can do that right now before going into prayer and deliverance for hurts with your Father.

Pray: Lord, Jesus, I am sorry and I repent (Turn away) from all sin. I believe that You died for me and took the punishment I deserve. Thank you for doing this. Thank you for resurrecting and coming back to life because You are God. I now surrender and turn every part over to You.

MINISTRY

We're going to do some ministry, around the father, the Father's love, we're going to ask God as our Heavenly Father to come, and to heal any place in your heart, that may be broken by words that were spoken over you, as someone that should have loved you should have never, ever spoken.

We are to be our brothers’ keepers. We are to bear each other's burdens. And that's what we want to do here today. You know, the Scripture says, when you cry, I want to cry with you. But when you laugh, I want to laugh with you. 

Galatians 6:1,2 -  Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

I choose to give justice and help my brothers and sisters. I want to help. I want to bear your burdens. Actually, I want to lift them up to the Father. You may have never heard your earthly father say to you, I love you. I'm glad you were born. I'm proud of you. You're a good daughter, or you're a good son. You will. You're going to hear these words for your heart today, because I'm going to take responsibility for your heart this day. I'm going to say that to you, because I want to represent God as your Father to you and the way he spoke audibly. You need to hear those words.

And fathers, if you have not said to your wives, to your daughters and sons, “I love you.” “You're a good daughter and son.”, it's not too late to start. It's never too late to start. So, you can start today. We’re going to pray right now, and pray to our Father in the name of Jesus. And then we're going to go into a time of ministry.

Father, in Jesus Name, only you really can heal the broken heart. As I minister today, Father, I ask you to come in the name of Jesus, and to drive out all the fears in these people. I ask, Father that You drive out the psychosis. To drive out the paranoia. I ask, Father, that you drive out the guilt and shame. Father, begin to drive out the infirmity, and the death and the diseases that are in your people. Come heal and deliver, father. Today, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Now I want to read and talk to you to bring great healing. Do you know what the great commandment is? What's the first thing we should do? We need to love God, but if you're going to love God, you're going to have to have a relationship with God as the Father. You are also to love yourself and love others. Some of us have made our Heavenly Father guilty by association with our earthly fathers. 

YOU CAN PRAY THIS OVER YOURSELF - It is meant to be prayed from one minister to a person or group of people, but you ask God as your Father to pray over yourself with His help.

I’m going to ask you, to forgive your father. To separate him from his sin, forgive him, you have a right to hate his sin. Forgiveness is not just for him, but it's mainly for you. You know, one of the things in forgiveness, the Scripture says, If you don't forgive, then God as our Father can not forgive you. And we all need forgiveness, don't we?

So I'm going to ask you to forgive today. I’m not going to stop when I ask you, but in your heart, I'm going to ask you to say,

Father, God, I'm giving this up. Yes, he did wrong. I have a right to hate the sin that he did. That was wrong of my earthly father. But I'm not going to make him one with the sin. I'm going to forgive him, today. And I’m going to move on, and you're going to heal my broken heart. And I'm not going to let unforgiveness stand in the way of what you want to do. So I'm going to read this to you right now. 

So on the behalf of your father that did not, could not, would not, or maybe he just didn't know how to tell you that he loved you. As your brother, Matt, I'll take responsibility for your heart this day. On behalf of that Father, will you forgive him for not telling you, I love you? I am so sorry for the silence and the junk and hardness that may have confused you, injured you, and left you stranded on the inside when you needed him so much. So in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I release you from the fear, the confusion, and the broken heart. Now you're going to hear these words for your heart today, that you really should have heard practically every day of your life.

I love you. I'm so glad you were born. I'm proud of you. And you're really a good son, and you're really a good daughter. And I am so proud of each and every one of you.

In Jesus name, I bind, break the curses, cut off ungodly soul ties on the mothers' side and the father's sides of all generations back to Adam and Eve, and close all the doors to all evils spirits and hurts that came in from every fathers' wrong-doing. I command all these evil spirits to be cast out, to go to Jesus, and to not be allowed to come back in again. I tell all lies, emotions, thoughts, and actions connected to these hurts from their earthly father to be cast down and replaced with God's truth from the Bible of God the Father's perfect love for each of us.

I cast out and tell all spirits of rejection, unforgiveness, rebellion, abandonment, pain, sickness and infirmity of all kinds, all mental illnesses, learning disabilities, performance to be loved, perfection, unloving spirits, perversion, fear, false comforts, addiction, anger, self-hate, depression, sadness, discouragement, suicide, sibling rivalry, guilt, shame, and all other evil spirits and problems connected to the failure of earthly fathers to show God the Father's perfect love to be cast out and go to Jesus never to return again. Get out now.

Father, in Jesus name, I ask that you would seal up this deliverance. Cover and protect all the people that listened to and participated in this teaching. Bind and destroy all avenger spirits and destroyer spirits. Let nothing be from the enemy hurt everyone here as it says in Luke 10:19. I also ask, Father that you would bring back all the parts of everyones' soul that has been hurt and broken from an earth father's failure and to restore and heal them. Give them your joy unspeakable from 1st Peter 1:8.

So, I want to thank you God as our Father, for coming here today and healing the broken hearts, not only here in this room, but also to those who are listening, and have forgiven their fathers, and they're moving on. And they're receiving the love of their real father. And they are receiving that perfect love. And it is casting out the fears that come with not being loved. I ask our father to give you peace, and to replace the void with your senses of belonging with God the Father, who has accepted us and who does love us perfectly.

Remember this: God's not guilty, just because someone else you know, missed the mark. God's not guilty. He's always loved you and will remain loving you for eternity. That's just the nature of God. God is love. So you really have to understand that that is really the truth.
