Shamed into Silence

​"...and anyone coming to Me I will never reject."--John 6:37 (TLV)

Shame robs us our dignity and forces us into silence.  It is the tool that the enemy uses to bring humiliation and dishonor.  As we erect walls of protection around our hearts, darkness mocks and jeers in triumph--as another soul lives in separation from the love of the Father. 

The one thing that the enemy does not want us to experience is relationship with our heavenly Father.  He knows that relationship with the Father is pure love, where there is warmth, acceptance, belonging, rest, and care.  It is the antithesis of what darkness offers.

​There is life and hope beyond shame.  If you have been shamed, now is your opportunity to get your dignity, honor, and voice back.  God is ever present to heal and deliver us from the harmful effects of shame.

Prayer
​Father, in the name of Jesus, I confess that I live in shame.  I have been deeply wounded by words/actions that have resulted in shame.  Shame governs my perceptions, my disposition, my behaviors, and my self-talk.  Shame dictates how I love and interact with others. 

​God, I pray that you would uproot the shame in my heart.  I pray for your peace in my mind.  I thank you for healing and deliverance.  I thank you for your love.  I receive your love.  As your creation, I am worth loving.  I receive the restoration of dignity, honor, and value according to your word.  I thank you for restoring my voice.  You have given me something to say. 

​I release the offender.  I disallow him/her/it to take up residency in my heart.  I come against intrusive thoughts with Your word and the power of the blood of Jesus.  I receive your mercy, grace, and goodness.  I decree inner liberty and freedom in Jesus' name.

​Amen and so be it according to the word of God.
