The Spirit of Trauma

Who here is the “Strongman”?

Is it the sower or that which is being sown?

There is a farmer working in his field. He is sowing seeds of many different plants. Corn, wheat, tomatoes, carrots and the like, good seed that would feed and provide for the health and well being of his family. Let me ask you. Who here is the “strongman” Is it the farmer or the seeds? Is it the sower or that which is being sown. Obviously, the farmer is the “strongman”. He determines what seeds are sown and how or where.

The farmer has a wife and three children. Tragically the farmer falls under a piece of equipment and is horribly killed. This traumatic event seriously affects each one in his family. It deeply wounds each of their souls. In his wife, this trauma sows the seeds of sadness and despair. In his son, it sows the seeds of bitterness and fear and in his two daughters it sows the seeds of anxiety and hopelessness. Let me ask you again, who here is the “strongman”. Is it the“trauma” that brought the soul wounds or is it the afflictions received by the family?Is it the sower or that which is being sown. Again, obviously the trauma is the “Strongman”.This “strongman”, the “spirit of trauma” has been around since the very beginning with Adam and Eve. It is the tool that Satan has used to bring havoc to all of humanity. Every person who has ever lived has been touched by this spirit.

Since the farmer has died, there is no one to tend to the crops. No one to water, cultivate or harvest. When the sower perishes, that which is sown also perishes. When the “spirit of trauma” perishes (is pulled down), all the bad seeds that he has sown, the bad roots he has put down will also perish. When the soul wounds are healed, there is wholeness and deliverance. It is so important that we recognize how devastating this “strongman” has been to all of us. To understand that the “sower” is the strongman and that which he “sows” are strongholds. It is vital to understand the difference between the two.

This is the focus of Revealing Light Healing Centres. For every individual, family, people group and nation, we pray to pull down the “spirit of trauma”. When we understand who the enemy is we can effectively pray specific, focused prayer against it. This is the prayer that will set the nations free.

When a person experiences a severe emotional traumatic event, it creates a wounding of the soul (soul wound). This wound provides fertile ground for the “spirit of trauma” to sow seeds of affliction. He puts down destructive emotional roots that when fully developed will produce harmful physical fruit.

This physical fruit is harmful to the individual and can often cause trauma to those who are in close relationship with that person.

It is not enough to cut a root or pick off the fruit. The entire tree (strongman) must be uprooted(pulled down). Remember, the roots and the fruits are the strongholds that are established by the body of the “Tree” which is the “strongman”, Trauma. This is the only way that the soul wound can be healed, for the person to be made whole and delivered.

For the unbeliever, this soul wound will never heal as the enemy will continuously pick at their wounds to keep them open. For it is only the blood of Christ that can bring healing to the soul wound. For the believer however, it is an ongoing process, we must continue to apply the blood of Christ to our wounds to receive healing. Even as our wounds are healed, the enemy will always attempt to find an opportunity to sneak in and aggravate the scar, reopen the wound.This is why we continue to pray, continue to plead the blood and continue to put on the full armor of God.

May God use this to direct your prayers against this devastating spirit.

Grace and peace to you all...
