Termites In Our Foundations

What Doctors say about Unforgiveness and Anger

Even secular doctors acknowledge that patients who are BITTER, and who's hearts are full of unforgiveness have a MAJOR problem with arthritis, bursitis and tendonistis. While they are not sure HOW it works, even though they have a few speculations, they know the problem is there. It 'settles in the bones.'

When I visited rest homes in the early part of my ministry, I often led the elderly people through a prayer FORGIVING THEIR CHILDREN for locking them up, abandoning them, failing to visit them/call or write them, taking everything they own and all the other things that 'EAT AWAY AT THEM ON THE INSIDE'. Then I'd lay hands and pray for healing and bind/cast out arthritis, bursitis, tendonitis and other related spirits. Next thing you know they'd be swinging their arms around in circles like a wind-mill which they hadn't been able to do for years.

Of course the problem was, that by the time I returned the next month, they'd gotten upset/angry/bitter because nobody visited them or whatever and all those tormenting spirits came back to afflict them. Most would be stiff and unable to move their arms, just like they were before.

This same example is seen in many areas of health. IF you smoke cigarettes (another sin under the strongman BONDAGE) then you open doors for demons of infirmities such as Asthma, Emphysema, lung cancer, mouth cancer, cancer of the esophagus and other infirmities to enter and do their damage. If you drink a lot of liquor then there is a good chance it will destroy your liver, as well as you getting to enjoy gout, high blood pressure and the other things that come with it like divorce, losing your job and possibly your sanity. GOD has many times shown me HE will not HEAL someone of a disease caused by a 'lust of the flesh' if the person will not quit the abuse to themselves which caused it in the first place!!

Here are some scriptures that discuss issues of the heart (anger/unforgivness) causing problems:

There is a PRICE TO PAY for sin. You can be forgiven by GOD for your sins, in JESUS' name, but the demons will STILL use that right to torment you, make you sick and in the long run a good chance the sickness/disease will lead to your death.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23 (NKJV)Bible quoteFor the wages of sin [is] death; but the gift of God [is] eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.Romans 6 (KJV) verse 23

What God has to say about Anger and Unforgiveness

Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience, in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them. But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth. Colossians 3:6-8 (NKJV)Bible quote(verse 6) For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:

(verse 7) In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.

(verse 8) But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.Colossians 3 (KJV) verses 6-8

"Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Luke 6:37 (NKJV)Bible quote Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:Luke 6 (KJV) verse 37

"Repent therefore of this your wickedness, and pray God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you. "For I see that you are poisoned by bitterness and bound by iniquity." Acts 8:22-23 (NKJV)Bible quote(verse 22) Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.

(verse 23) For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and [in] the bond of iniquity.Acts 8 (KJV) verses 22-23

Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you. Ephesians 4:29-32 (NKJV)Bible quote(verse 29) Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

(verse 30) And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

(verse 31) Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

(verse 32) And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.Ephesians 4 (KJV) verses 29-32

"And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. "But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses (sins)." Mark 11:25-26 (NKJV)Bible quote(verse 25) And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.

(verse 26) But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.Mark 11 (KJV) verses 25-26

The scriptures above were NOT to sinners, but to THOSE who call themselves 'followers of CHRIST' which were the CHRISTIANS. So, by NOT forgiving others WE CANNOT BE FORGIVEN!!! So much for the 'once saved, always saved' doctrine.

Before I sat down to do this teaching GOD spoke to me 'TELL THEM ANGER, BITTERNESS, UNFORGIVENESS AND ANGER AT GOD ARE ALL SINS AND IF THEY DIE IN THEIR UNREPENTED SINS I MUST PERFORM MY WORD AND THEY WILL BE JUDGED!

The Hidden Sin... Anger at God

Even though I deal with this in my prayers when helping people break legal rights if GOD shows me that this is a MAJOR doorway for attack against someone then I discuss this MAJOR hidden root before ministry proceeds. With some people it doesn't take a 'great revelation' from GOD to see this problem. You can tell when you read the letters they send. All you can read in some letters is blaming GOD for everything and they are FULL of 'Anger At GOD' THEN THEY ask a dumb question like "WHY DOESN'T GOD BLESS ME??" If I try to answer these people who are EATEN UP with bitterness then they defend themselves by quoting scriptures which promise GOD will bless them and then accusing GOD of lying in HIS word.

They think GOD OWES it to them but ALL GOD's promises are conditional. I point out that they need to read ALL THE SCRIPTURES surrounding his 'PROMISES' and discover the 'CONDITIONS' which need to be 'in-line' to receive that blessing/promise. Usually people EATEN up with bitterness/ unforgivenss and anger at GOD don't want to see the truth or THEIR accountability. See how people can be SELECTIVE on what scriptures they want to 'claim'?? They claim the part they like and toss out the part that THEY are responsible for.
