Have you ever been falsely
accused, but instantly the word “crap”
came to your mind and was spoken through your mouth? Have you ever been scolded for using the word
“crap”? It seems nowadays that some Christians feel
comfortable saying any and every vulgar word that comes to their mind. After watching most action packed movies and
TV programs today, it is easy to understand why vulgar words are so readily
available for use, even by Christians.
How can sweet and bitter words come out of the same source?
The Bible says that the words we
speak come out of the abundance of our heart.
If we profess to be a Christian, then vulgar expressions are not in our
heart, unless we only take in such things, instead of taking in the Word of
God.
This word is described as vulgar in dictionaries, which speaks of body excrement or something that is nonsense or rubbish. It is a word that
has popped into my mind, not into my heart, in the middle of difficult times of
false accusations. Each time I immediately
felt condemned for having such a thought come to my mind until one day I
realized what that word really means. I
knew that the accusations were coming from the enemy and this word also was
shot into my mind.
It was December 22, 2004 when I
was under a very strong spiritual attack and that word came to my mind. I kept trying to put it out of my mind, but
it seemed very strong. I asked the Lord
to forgive me for the times I had even said it.
Finally I was able to get alone to pray and I felt so condemned, but
condemnation does not come from God. As
I was focusing on that small word, an acronym for “crap” came to my mind. I thought, “Lord, this can’t be from You,
because this is a word that Christians should not say.” I struggled for a couple more minutes and
then knew that it was not my imagination.
That day in December, I learned
the true meaning of the little word that is used by most as vulgar. I realized that when God’s children are
falsely accused and lied on, the accusers’ words go up before God smelling
worse than a body’s excrement. God sees
those words of accusations as dung. They
are spoken by people with much pride, authority, self-confidence, in defiance
of Who God is, and especially proclaiming what and who the accused is.
The word “crap” really means “C=arnal R=epetitive
A=ccusatory P=roclamations.
I am not encouraging any
Christian to begin using this word daily, but I am saying that when the enemy
begins to accuse you directly or through someone, KNOW and RECOGNIZE what is
really happening to you. Carnal is
referring to the physical body, which is further explained as manifestation of
a person’s lower nature. Repetitive just
means that something is repeated again and again. Accusatory is when someone strongly blames
another person, whether right or wrong.
Proclamations are those accusations which are made publicly, as if they
are official.
There is nothing that is
official, EXCEPT the Word of God. When
the Word of God says that you are saved, then you are saved if you have
accepted Jesus Christ into your heart.
When the Word of God says that you are healed by His stripes, then
healing belongs to you. When the Word of
God says that you are free indeed because Jesus came to set you free, then you
are free. When the Word of God says that
“God created man in His own image, in the image and likeness of God He created
him; male and female He created them,” THEN you were created in God’s image.
When the enemy comes against your
mind with false accusations and lies, don’t accept any of them. Just stand up,
raise your foot and then in the Name of Jesus Christ, CRUSH IT!!! Take authority over those words which make
you feel so bad, and smell very, very, very bad in the nostrils of God
Almighty. Those words may be about your
past, BUT DON’T ACCEPT THEM. Remind the
enemy of Jesus’ blood that has washed your sins away. Speak the words of LIFE that are in you from
the Word of God.
It is time for you to stop
listening to those words which are considered Carnal Repetitive Accusatory
Proclamations and begin stomping them out of your life. God told Joshua, “Every place that the sole
of your foot shall tread upon, that
have I given unto you.” (Joshua 1:3 KJV)
Joshua could not possess the land by sitting down, lying down, or by
standing still. He had to begin to take aggressive
steps.
King David wrote “Through You
shall we push down our enemies: through Your name shall we tread them under who rise up against us.” (Psalm 44:5 AMP) “Through God we shall do valiantly, for He it
is Who shall tread down our
adversaries.” (Psalm 60:12 AMP) “Through
and with God we shall do valiantly, for He it is Who shall tread down our adversaries.” (Psalm 108:13 AMP)
The verse that makes it so clear
and easy to understand is in Luke 10:19, “Behold! I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions,
and [physical and mental strength and ability] over all the power that the
enemy [possesses]; and nothing shall in any way harm you.” (AMP)
In the King James Version verse
19 states, “Behold, I have given you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the
enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”
In Amplified it says you have
been given authority and power to “trample upon” the enemy. King James says that you have been given
power to “tread on” the enemy. It
is time for each of us to begin to trample
and tread on the enemy. Instead of accepting the accusations and lies
of the enemy, begin to stomp on the
enemy. When you decide that you are not
going to put up with those carnal repetitive accusatory proclamations of the
enemy any longer, then become a STOMPER
and remember what it means to be a STOMPER:
S-trongly T-ramping O-n M-indless P-ersuasions (of the) E-nemy’s R-egime
