When any thing or some one reminds you of your past in a manner which would prevent you from moving out of it and into the new creature you are in Christ, know with out a doubt it is functioning as a messenger of Satan. It is serving the darkness of this world while you are trying to bring light to those who thirst!
Pray for the death of your enemies. The same death that you and the apostle Paul experienced on the road to Damascus. Pray for the the death of their damaged past, that they may be released into their promising future.
Crucified with Christ we are transformed by the renewing of our minds. The old has passed away.
Behold all things are new. There is now therefore NO CONDEMNATION for those who are in Christ Jesus...
AMEN!
