			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>God is building His kingdom out of all that has been transformed into His likeness. It is the transformed work and character only that can withstand the test of fire (I Corinthians 3:13- 15). Many of us get caught up in ourselves without a conscious awareness because our heart is so desperately wicked until self- evaluation is totally futile (Jeremiah 17:9). In Jeremiah 17:10 it reads, “Lord searches the mind, I try the heart, even to give to every man according the to the fruit of his doing. (Amp.Translation) God is the only one capable of searching into the dark recesses of our human heart and judging its motivation and deep intents.</p>
<p>God’s love will put you in places of testing that will shake the very fiber of your soul and force you into making the choice for victory over the devil because to do otherwise is guaranteed slavery. Man is an expert in rationalizing and making excuses for his compromising actions, decisions and sins. We accepted the humanistic doctrine of cause and effect but because Jesus has come to break the dominion of the Devil and sin in our lives, we now can activate purified free wills. We are now able to make choices for righteousness.</p>
<p>Some of us still prefer to be zapped by God into righteous behavior, habits and godly decisions. Even though the Lord does sometimes choose to sovereignly heal and “woo” some away from destruction, most of the time God prefers us to yield ourselves to the Holy Spirit so we can thereby be washed, cleansed and equipped. This sanctifying process will enable us to make choices for righteousness with empowerment. God’s has designed His love to be as penetrating as the division of bone and marrow and as piercing to the dimensions of the spirit from the soul (Hebrews 12:4). HALLELUJAH!!!!</p>
<p>God’s love will put you in places of testing that will shake the very fiber of your soul and force you into making the choice for victory over the Devil because to do otherwise is guaranteed slavery. His love has its own language and daily compels you to not sit in the Satan’s camp and plot against yourself with demons by getting in agreement with them, but just get up and leave that hell hole. Remember, it is those dark imaginings that give Satan access to your soul as in your mind, will and your emotions.</p>
<p>Jesus came to shake off of you anything that would act as fertile ground for the spawning of devil seed. Satan has one mission, to steal, kill and destroy; and when this cannot be accomplished, he then defaults into <span style="text-decoration: underline;">project contamination</span> to defile your anointing and offsprings. Hebrews 12:27 reads, “Now this expression, yet once more, indicates the final removal and transformation of all (that can be) shaken that is, of that which has been created in order that what cannot be shaken may remain and continue. Let us therefore receiving a kingdom that is firm and stable and cannot be shaken, offer to God pleasing service and acceptable worship, with modesty and pious care and godly fear and awe:” (Amplified Translation)</p>
<p>When we were little children, our mothers or fathers, instead of giving us a good spanking, would sometimes give us a good shaking and say, “Since I can’t spank some sense into you, then I will just shake some sense into you”. The Lord sometimes has to do this same thing by putting us in places where we are so tempted until we can almost smell the enemy nearby, and then God sends along an emissary who gives us that heartrending advice that almost causes us to duck, expecting that lightning bolt to follow. God’s love is so soul-shakingly powerful, until with every temptation, He affords us a way of escape through Jesus. God’s love is so vast until nothing can ever separate you from it not even death. His love is so out of this world dazzling until it cannot be defined because of its supernatural force. Take the time to meditate with thanksgiving in your heart on the love of God that passes all of our “pea brain” human finite understanding.</p>
<p>Because many of us have been “career girlfriends or boyfriends” going from one fornicating or adulterous relationship to another, we desperately need an anointed Blog to shake us up out of our apathy. We might even be a “drugee” of some type whether it’s addictive substances, perverted sex or porn, shopping, gluttony, or anything that is medicating our pain in any way, it ALL separates us from receiving this supernaturally prescribed miraculously soul elixir. My Blog articles are not only to educate you but also to ignite you into loving yourself enough to seek transformation. Your Transformation can begin at Redemptive Christian Counseling (972-478-4340) where we are waiting for you to call us, for we are your Restorative Therapist.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Locked deep within the heart of every Christian man or woman is a place where few people have been given the rite of passage way.  This place I have termed the “secret chamber.”  Secret because it is hidden away from the rest of the house and remains invisible to others.  Chamber because it is only one room tucked away within the house or temple of a man.  1 Cor. 3:16 reads &#8220;Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you.&#8221;  Truly we are the human temples of God and He lives within us.  We have a responsibility to take care of every part of this temple because it is a godly habitation in which the Lord dwells.  Rite of passage rights have been given away to people who have had no other plans than to abandon or to reject us after their selfish goals have been accomplished.</p>
<p>This secret chamber is a very delicate or fragile room within the heart that requires certain qualifications to be met before entry.  Out of desperation and a desirous need to be loved and understood, many have given this rite away only to become more deeply wounded and broken.  When unsanctioned passage has been given away, the person entering into this secret place has access to secrets that no one else has ever heard relating to you. Automatically, an emotional bond or soul-tie has been created that should have been founded on a covenant relationship that would last a lifetime.  That is why if this person is of the same sex then it should be a “bosom friend ” relationship or if this person is of the opposite sex then it should be a husband or someone with whom you have definite marital plans.  There are sick people who get perverted pleasure from gathering the keys to someone else’s heart only to control and reject them later because the “thrill is now gone”.  Mission has been accomplished.</p>
<p>We can help ourselves by understanding that this place is truly a holy place within us that belongs to the Lord and it is up to Him to decide who traffics there.  For innately upon entry is a built in responsibility with the help of the Lord to bring healing and restoration within the soul of that person.  Which is why it is important that this person be ordained by God to be able to carry the weight of the responsibility and the godly anointing that comes with it.  The grace of God is given to a husband, fiancée, pastor, or godly counselor.  Wrapped up in this responsibility is the Lord’s power, authority, discernment and wisdom to bring about restoration because everything is this chamber may not be upright.  Sometimes it is too dim in the chamber for one to see properly and that is why the restorer must have the Lord’s anointing to furnish the necessary light to facilitate the healing process.  There are times when darkness completely covers and only the Lord can provide the penetrating light needed for the healing because as it says in Psalms 139:11&#038; 12 “…the darkness shines as bright as the day, the darkness and the light are both alike to You.” The secret chamber should be enveloped in God secret place.  Psalms 91:1</p>
<p>Many problems have arisen from an unsanctioned rite of passage when a married man or woman talks of tender heart issues with someone other than their spouse.  This is spiritual adultery and can be just as devastating to a covenant marriage as physical adultery. Spirits of seduction have many faces and some of them look innocent but are not.  If married men are always talking to you about their problems, lady, you have taken the place of the other woman in his life.   If married women are always talking to you about their problems, Sir, then you have become the other man in her life.  God calls this thing adultery.</p>
<p>Singles will uncover themselves prematurely because maybe the person they are conversing with lacks revelation in this area and was willing to tell them their life story.  Because he or she is “telling it all” doesn’t give you permission to do the same. You take note and understand that access to this place cannot be indiscriminately offered to anyone except the Lord or the person the Lord has given access.</p>
<p>It is time for us to become mature in the ways that we relate to others.  Some of the church is addicted to brokenness and some of us are satisfied to mirror a society that is psychologically dysfunctional &#8211; the world. We must purpose in our hearts to make a decision to grow up seeking the Lord while accepting His complete Lordship.  At Redemptive Christian Counseling, we are so anointed by the Lord to spiritually equip you to move out of those fractured places.  Those places were “X” marks the spot and you are standing to the left or to the right of X and nothing seems or feels right any longer.  Do yourself a favor and give us a call at RCC 972-478-4340 and we do a lot of telephone counseling if you are not local or can’t come into our Offices.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A while ago, my Son Bobby and I were talking about people who had a history or carrying guns for defense.  Our Son presently has 17 years in the Air Force so guns would be very comfortable and natural for him to carry a gun with a Texas License.   We discussed one person we both knew very intimately who had a long history of carrying a gun.  Bobby explained to me that that man “carried dirty”.  I said “what do you mean?” and he explained Texas Gun Laws to me and how many violated those laws. That is where the phrase “Carrying dirty” comes because it refers to those who carry a gun without legal permission or licensure.  That phrase stayed with me and I thought about the Gospel and how so many Christians in the Church of Jesus Christ also “carry dirty”.</p>
<p>At Redemptive Christian Counseling, we are counseling so many Christians who have or had moral sin in their lives. One lady in particular, I counseled many years ago, who was a wonderful Wife and stay-at-home Mother.  She came to me because she battled a very strong tormenting demon.  After talking to her more and discerning what she was actually battling, I knew that her Husband was “carrying dirty”.  I knew she lived holy and I knew that her Husband had to have been a porn struggler.  The demon she was battling is called an Incubus (means to “lie upon”) who takes advantage of a woman who has either voluntarily been into unclearness or has had it imposed upon her by her mate.  The case in point situation was too pronounced and that Demon had too much power and took too many liberties with her. Her covering was “Dirty”.  When I mentioned my suspicions to her, she was not in agreement because of their “clean” home life.  I just prayed about it and God in His mercy validated and confirmed my suspicions to her Himself.  My Husband likewise, has counsel men who have battled the succubus (means to lie under) spirit and have experienced the same sexual torture in attempting to live righteous lives for Christ.</p>
<p>The Lady mentioned above went to church with her Family and everything seemed appropriate in appearance but there was something dark lurking in her Husband unknown to him that kept her sexually uncovered.  The incubus attacks the female and the succubus attacks the male usually in their sleep.  These demons will give you sexual dream pollution with corresponding sexual climaxes, so it is a spiritual invasion into your soul and body.   These demons are also referred to as your “Spiritual Husband and Spiritual Wife” and they are possessive and destructive to their host.  Their goal is to “marry” you to make you “carry dirty” or destroy your life in every possible way whether relationally, spiritually, physically, mentally or financially. Their goal is the same as their Commander-In-Chief Satan which is to steal, kill and destroy as spoken of in John 10:10.  When these demons grow in power they don’t just attack you when you are in the bed sleeping but will molest you sexually wherever you are.  Whether you are sitting in Church, listening to your pastor’s sermons, or just having lunch with friends or family, these sexual demons will start up their torture.  When you are dirty, you may not even know it until the torment starts.  My Husband has counseled numerous godly men just as I have counseled many godly ladies  who were tormented and  “carrying dirty”.</p>
<p>Satan is a legalist and the same spiritual laws that govern our lives also govern his so he has to get you to sexually violate  in a way that grants him a spiritual passport or access to you.  The international and national epidemic of porn on every media level in our country is one of the grandstand reasons followed by consensual or non-consensual sexual activities.  Sexual dreams and fantasies, fornication, adultery, oral sex, ungodly soul-ties, porn, certain kinds of R-rated movies, evil dedications, sexual molestation, date rape and all kinds of sexual activity spiritually unlawful outside and inside of the marital covenant will give the succubus and incubus spiritual passports .  All of this sexual drama is traveling hard into Churches everywhere.  A lot of Pastors or Preachers are preaching or teaching “carrying dirty”.  A lot of Church Leaders in churches are leading “carrying dirty”.  A lot of people in Churches everywhere are sitting on church pews “carrying dirty”.   A lot of men and women we have counseled whether single or married have at some time experienced this kind of distress but were confused by it or fearful of it, so most just kept it to themselves.</p>
<p>Many lies that single women and men hear of never getting married and never having children may be the spiritual torment of these evil agents (incubus or succubus).  When any of the above sexual activities are performed, this gives them spiritual passports (rights) into your lives and their goal is always to “marry” you and to keep us from receiving the abundant life Jesus Christ, our Lord has promised us.  All of us want our divine inheritance and none of us would get any pleasure from “carrying dirty” in any way. I know that this has been a lot of heavy and rich information I have just presented to you but at Redemptive Christian Counseling we are on your side.  We want you walking in freedom with a firm foundation in Christ receiving all of your spiritual inheritances.  Please pray the prayer below and give us a call at 972-478-4340 and ask for Pastors Jerry or Jessye Ruffin and we can help you break through and move you away from “carrying dirty”.</p>
<p>Lord Jesus, I am ready to repair and restore my soul and body in any area that has been in captivity or bondage to the evil agents of the succubus or incubus spirits.  I ask you now to give me the courage and boldness to take a stand against the evil spiritual environment these spirits are creating in my life and I will call Redemptive Christian Counseling to make this become my reality.  AMEN</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://redemptivechristiancounseling.org/new/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/JessyeRuffinHEADSHOT_008soft_5x7.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-100 alignleft" title="JessyeRuffinHEADSHOT_008soft_5x7" src="http://redemptivechristiancounseling.org/new/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/JessyeRuffinHEADSHOT_008soft_5x7-214x300.jpg" alt="" width="214" height="300" /></a><em>This Blog is a very tiny taste of a much larger Seminar Teaching called <strong>Soul Healing.</strong></em></p>
<p>The American culture may be looked at as sexually abusive.  From the time you wake up to the time you go to bed, how many possible sexual stimulation have you encountered?  Now, you may just overlook that kind of brainwashing, but how many people are as strong as you are?  The commercials on television are always spawning tons of questions to parents from their children.  I know because when our children were young, we were asked those same kinds of questions.  Yes, children are bombarded with movies, music, internet porn and TV shows that are designed to be sexually stimulating.</p>
<p>Children don’t have the emotional development to deal with these sexual stimuli.  They can grow up before their time.  National sexual brokenness multiplies with every upcoming generation.  All of this comes out of living in a sexually broken society where childhood is lost and identity is stolen by sexual chaos on some level.  Sexual brokenness has escalated because when I was young, plastic surgery in children by choice was unheard of and there were no eating disorders in children because of the unspoken sexual demands for acceptance in being “pretty”.  Even though there has been an incredible progression of societal sexual brokenness, one sexual crime has been consistent and continuous with that being sexual molestation.  I know because I was sexually violated at 4 and 6 yrs old by an elder cousin.</p>
<p>I have been a Faith Based Biblical Counselor for almost 30 yrs and early on, I wondered why I was so good at counseling those who had been sexually violated.  One day in prayer, the Lord Himself reminded me of my own suffered abuse while I was thanking Him for the incredible counseling skill He had given me in that area and the multiple successes achieved in counseling victims of the crime.  It has been estimated that almost half of any church’s women attendees have been sexually molested and one third of all of the men attending have.  Those numbers hold true even in the clients that come in to see my Husband and I in Redemptive Christian Counseling.  Pastors across America are preaching to congregations where a great many sitting have been sexually damaged on some level.  How many of those sermons have been received in the purity in which the pastors received it from the Lord?  Even marriages have broken up because of the lasting residual effects of sexual abuse unbeknown to either of their spouses.  I know because we have been privileged to provide counseling in a lot of 2nd marriages.</p>
<p>At Redemptive Christian Counseling, you will find the needed help you have longed for in this area and in many more areas.  In my blogs, I plan on highlighting systemic problematic issues that are daily encountered in women. By me using the term “systemic”, it makes allowances for the generation sins and curses that affect us as women, but the sexual abuse issue is only one of our familial systematic problems.  That term also allows you to know how broad spectrum this issue can be affected in your life.  I have gone into churches, done seminars, and taught classes to educate women on sexual brokenness along with other systematic problems.  These blogs will give you only a taste of what you will receive if you make an appointment with us at RCC because then you will be placed on a divine pathway to wholeness.  I look so forward to hearing from you.
