Private Property

I was speaking with a ministry buddy of mine the other day and we got into a conversational exchange regarding the importance of people purging past relationships before entering into new ones. Unfortunately, this practice doesn’t routinely take place, and modern day relationships are paying the price for our negligence. Both men and women are seeking regular occupants in the secret places of their lives that only God can sufficiently fill. The core of our being and who we are can only be built upon a relationship with God. He is the source of our being and the creator of all. Too many of us (men and women) have ‘unauthorized’ occupants in our lives. This becomes an issue because our past relationships continue to leave traces of people in the secret areas of our lives that are God’s private property. If you experience any of the following symptoms then you are probably suffering from ‘unauthorized occupant syndrome’: 1) Problems with Trust, 2) A Hardened Heart, 3) Lack of Desire for Love and/or 4) Drained Self-esteem.

This entry serves as notice to many who may have experienced some temporary setbacks in life. Please understand that God can resurrect the dead things in your life if you allow Him to reclaim occupancy in the private areas of your life. Stop allowing people access to inner courts of your life because most are unworthy and ill-equipped to accept that responsibility. Get back to the fundamentals of relationships: 1) Focus on your relationship with God, 2) Focus on your relationship with yourself and then 3) Focus on relationships with others. Invite God to come back into your life…even the areas you have tried to keep from Him. He wants to move the ‘stuff’ from the private property He has declared as His and will the post ‘Do Not Enter’ signs warning others to keep out :).
