Introduction

Section I: Healing
|
1
|
"I Will Give You Rest"
- This rest has escaped many.
|
|

|
Why You Are Stuck
- We all make a huge mistake in thinking we can obey God in our own
strength.
- Your will power cannot succeed in producing obedience.
- But God is big enough, and He provided a way whereby you can obey Him.
|

|
Remove All The Bad Roots
- We all have many roots of sin
- We continually plant new ones
- When Jesus removes these roots, we can obey Him
|
|
4
|
Judging Causes Problems
- We all have a tendency to judge negatively.
- Such judging causes great difficulty in our lives.
|
|
5
|
Forgiving Ends These Problems
- Forgiving from your heart brings forgiveness by Jesus.
- His forgiveness reverses the damage caused by your judging.
- How can you forgive when it is hard?
|
|

|
God Is On Your Side
- God is protecting you.
- He is desiring to change you into His image.
|
|

|
Decisions That Bind Us
- Inner Vows are bitter decisions we make.
- These decisions lock us into rigid behavior.
- Jesus provided the way to set us free from bondage to this rigid behavior.

"That It May Go Well With You"
God said, "Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God
has commanded you, that your days may be long, and that it may be
will with you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you"
(Deuteronomy 5:16). God was describing reality. If we do not honor
father and mother, life will not go well for us, and God mentioned
no exceptions. But, how can a person honor dishonorable
parents? You need to know what God meant when He said to
honor them, so that life will go well for you.

There Is Buried Treasure
- You may have judged yourself as "bad," so you think you need to "die to
self."
- But God sees the "treasure" inside you, which is the part of you made in His
image.
- God wants to set free this "treasure" you buried.

Your Worst Trauma
Many people are mystified as to why they struggle in life, even
though they came from a "normal" family. Your worst trauma was
not the bad things that happened to you, as bad as they may be.
What really hurt you was the "absence of the good."
If this sounds strange, you need to gain an understanding of what
scientific research on "bonding" has uncovered regarding how
very devastating it is for a child to not receive all the nurture they
needed. Did this happen to you? It happened to most people!

|
Emotions Are Your Friend
- Emotions are not sinful or fickle.
- Your emotions give you important information.
- Your emotions reliably tell you what is going on inside you.
|
|
12
|
The Good Part Of You
- You are not "all bad", because part of you is made in God's image.
- That "good part" still exists in you.
- God wants to set free that "good part".
|
|
13
|
The Bad Part Of You
In the prior chapter I described the part of you made in the image of
God. However, there is also a "bad part." It is sometimes
described as "the flesh," but it may surprise you what it really is.
The good news is that it is not our entire self. However, it does
make the mess in our lives that results in our pain. You must learn
what this bad part is, and how it operates.

Section II: Fullness of Life
|
14
|
Face To Face With Jesus
The most powerful healing happens when a person meets Jesus
face to face. This chapter describes the power to change us that
happens in an encounter with Him.
|
|
15
|
A "New And Living Way"
Here I describe how a face to face encounter with Jesus can
happen. Many testimonies are included as examples.
|
|
16
|
Deliverance And Inner Healing
Satan and his demons are real and can oppress Christians. Jesus
can set you free, but Inner Healing must precede deliverance. In
Luke 11:20-26, Jesus clearly describes this problem. It may be
vitally important that you know how to go about this so that
permanent freedom results in your life.
|
|
17
|
It Is A Journey
Inner Healing is not a one-shot deal. It must be walked out moment
by moment. If you don’t understand why this is true, you will be in
danger of losing your healing.
|
|
18
|
Love, An Essential Ingredient
God loves you. Jesus told us to love ourselves (Mathew 22:39).
Again, He was simply describing spiritual reality. It is absolutely
essential to know what this means, and how to have a loving
relationship with ourselves on a daily basis.
|
|
19
|
The Big Picture
This chapter summarizes the whole journey to wholeness. It helps
you to integrate the various aspects of what you have learned, so
that you can effectively apply all of it.
