Hello, brothers, sisters, and Heartdwellers family,
This is a follow-up teaching from the messages Jesus gave about Spiritual Husbands and Wives. He truly is taking Heartdwellers into deeper levels of prayer and deliverance.
You see the Lord is revealing this because many of you are suffering from different assignments in your life, in your family, and in your marriage that may be a result of this very spirit and demonic covenant. You may have listened to the message thinking—well I am not married it doesn’t affect me—or I am single and still a virgin this message doesn’t affect me—or I was a virgin or both my husband and I were virgins before we got married it doesn’t affect me. However, with any of these rebuttals, it still can. If before you came to Jesus you lived a life of sin in sexual immorality of any kind, then you have one or some.
If you have had a succubus or incubus dream where someone male or female or something comes and defiles you—wants to get intimate with you via kiss or touch—or sleeps with you in a dream, then you definitely have one. Like Jesus said, in His mercy, He can take on this battle for some of us and He doesn’t make us aware of what is going on spiritually. So, you may have had that but never experienced anything. I never experienced any of these things until I gave my life to Jesus. I had only one dream like that in my adolescence but beyond that, I didn’t. I would have never known if it wasn’t for the mercy of God to reveal those things in the spirit that have been hidden from me by the demons.
You see, demons love to stay hidden. If they can oppress, possess, and influence a soul without being recognized that is their ultimate goal. Just like Satan’s desire that all the world would see him as a figment of imagination—not a real creature who is a fallen angel with wicked intentions fighting humanity for its soul to be dammed along with him. Of course, he wouldn’t want that to be revealed, why? Revelation brings a person the power to do something about what they have received. When Satan, his minions, and his influence in your life stay hidden then he has full reign to do with you as he pleases—continue to steal from you, frustrate you, oppress you, your happiness and joy, and keep you in bondage. Furthermore, you become his prisoner. If a soldier doesn’t recognize that he is in battle, walks into enemy territory, and gets captured but doesn’t see the bullets flying, doesn’t see his opponent, and doesn’t see the prison walls he is sitting in as a prisoner of war, then you can keep this soldier enslaved and injured with whatever Idea or suggestion as long as he doesn’t know the truth.
I believe that is why the Lord is bringing these tactics of spiritual warfare up in this season. Many of us have been captive for so long, even generationally, to these influences and didn’t know it. Jesus wants us to be set free.
Before we go into giving these demonic spirits a divorce decree and breaking your covenant with them it’s important you know what they are and where they could have come from to gain access into your life. Then you can close any door that is still open and seal it off, even for the next generation—your children, younger siblings, or grandchildren’s lives, and that of your spouse as well.
I would like to first start with soul ties. Many of you may be familiar with hearing about soul ties. Some of you may have heard or done the exercise before, breaking every soul tie you had with people from your past after you gave your life to Jesus. But you are still having symptoms of oppression in your life, not realizing that it comes from a covenant you never broke with a spiritual husband or wife that you have.
Soul Ties can be thought of this way: A soul tie is an invisible chain that binds you to another person spiritually, mentally, and physically. I would like to say sexually, emotionally, and metaphysically.
An example of a soul tie can be found in scripture.
1 Samuel 18:1
And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
It says that Jonathan loved David like his own soul. A soul tie can be divinely appointed, or it can be demonically appointed. Jonathan and David’s relationship was not at all sexual in nature but a platonic, deep, spiritual friendship that God put together. It was a very good soul tie—a metaphysical and an emotional one.
That is what I want to touch on first. You can have an emotional soul tie with chosen souls that God puts in your life on your spiritual journey. I realize, in my own life, the Lord has blessed me to have deep spiritual friendships like this. Truly, where our soul ties are so beautiful and genuine. These persons—the Lord put me on their hearts. They carry my burdens as I carry theirs. He gives us insight into one another lives as to our struggles and what we go through so that we can continually encourage one another and love each other in the purest way, to do God’s will here on earth. That is a good soul tie. We form soul ties through our family—a parent and child soul tie, sibling soul ties, and so forth. Sometimes that can be bad if there is trauma, manipulation, and pain. Once we come to Christ we must sever that soul tie to grow.
Jesus said,” A soul tie deals with the will, mind, and emotions”. If it’s a negative soul tie you are constantly succumbing to that person’s will. You’re constantly manipulated in your mind by their suggestions, or words they have spoken over you, or what they tell you. They can rule your emotions by what they do or don’t do. It’s toxic and sometimes you can have that in your family. Many times, we incur that in relationships with a soul that is wounded. You wound one another’s soul and you walk away more damaged than healed and strengthened.
Let’s say in your marriage your spouse is always [more] prone to listening to their parents than you. Your husband always runs to his mom for advice and values her advice more than yours. Or your wife always listens to the counsel of her mother [more] than you. If you see your in-laws bringing negative fruit into your marriage because of the connection they have with your spouse, then that soul tie must be severed.
You are called to be one. There is a soul tie in marriage that is necessary—you both, becoming one flesh—that is only reserved for a husband, wife, and God in a marriage. Also, if you grew up in a dysfunctional home and you constantly received negative affirmations, negative words spoken over you that you are worthless, you’re stupid, you wouldn’t amount to anything, you’re not pretty enough and it’s now affecting you in your life as the words replay on autopilot in your mind and that has shaped your identity. You must sever the soul tie of that person from you.
Another emotional soul tie can be an “ex” [prior relationship] you have who keeps showing up in your dreams. Or you find yourself thinking of them from time to time, missing them. If you guys were never intimate this is an emotional soul tie that needs to be severed. It can be in friendships too, that are not fruitful in nature. Maybe there was someone you befriended who always talked down on you, belittled you, and was jealous towards you and your friendship has ended but you find you’re still crippled by the things they said, or their actions. It replays in your mind or even in your dreams. You must sever that soul tie.
Thenthere is the metaphysical soul tie. A metaphysical connection with someone means there is a strong pull toward that person that is beyond physical. Once again there can be Godly divine appointed ones like Jonathan and David. When you meet someone, and the Holy Spirit prompts you to connect with them or naturally it happens and you form a strongly Godly pure bond—that is the work of the Holy Spirit. But for these purposes, we are talking about negative ones.
Jesus, to Mother Clare, said in a message about spiritual warfare that demons can project electromagnetic energy to insight temptation to lust, arousal, and stimulation of any kind. So that is why you can meet someone and immediately be drawn to them. That is how many affairs start. Or you plan on meeting up with someone from your past or you once had a connection with, and you tell yourself that nothing will happen. Then you find yourselves touching one another, or making out because as you sat with that person you had a strong desire and acted on impulse. Hence the word impulse. It was an electromagnetic projection that gave you that impulse, and sensation in your body, from the demons to make you desire that person—so strongly drawn to them to make you fall.
So, this soul tie doesn’t always have to be sexual in nature. But there is an energy exchange between the two of you—when you can meet someone, and you connect with them on a deep level. You have the same energy and desires. You feel something when they are around or your heart jumps when you see them or think of them. You may not have even been physical with this person. However, now in your marriage or even in your single life, you can’t seem to get them off your mind. It could be a co-worker or colleague and there is a strong pull towards them that you know can possibly even turn to lust. It’s important you sever the metaphysical soul tie. You can even do this on behalf of your spouse.
Lastly, there are sexual soul ties with every person you become intimate with or have engaged in any sexually immoral act. You immediately form a soul tie with that person. That is why the Lord says any sin of sexual immorality is a sin against your own body because your body is meant to be for the Lord, 1 Corinthians 6:18, a temple of purity and monogamy, only to God, kept in purity until you are given to marriage. This will lead to the next message about spiritual husbands and wives.
I did the severing of the soul ties exercise a few times before I got married in preparation to give myself completely to God and to my husband. When the Lord was drawing us together before we got married, we discussed our past and through conversation, I was given names of people whom he had a connection with in one way or another, emotionally or otherwise. The Lord had me write down all the names and begin to break the soul ties of these people off my future spouse, as I mentioned them each by name. I was told by Mother Elisabeth the Lord was saying to also break the metaphysical soul ties. So, I broke the emotional, metaphysical, and sexual soul ties of these people and asked the Lord to remove them one by one. And He did! That is how I was able to get married. But even after marriage, I had to say this prayer daily because the enemy will use people from your past to bring temptations to you and your spouse. So, you can do this not only for yourself but even for your spouse. You don’t have to know all the names or even any, but you have authority over your spouse’s body. You guys are one flesh. So, you want to pray and ask the Lord to break every metaphysical, emotional, and sexual soul tie your spouse still has. If you know names mention the names of the people and ask the Lord to knit your souls together like Jonathan and David—that your spouse would love you alone as if your soul was theirs. You can say that—it is powerful and it is scriptural.
I will discuss spiritual husbands and wives in the follow-up message. What are they and where they can come from? —before we say the prayer to get rid of them. The reason is, that I want to ensure that these demons are gone out of your life once and for all. Amen!
