How G-d Wounds and Then Heals a Mercy, Part 2

I was going to go with a post on the Teacher, but then something struck me from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and so I had to run with it. So, here goes…

A Bit More On the Mercy From the MCU, and Then, I Promise We Will Get To the Teacher

Of course, I had to go here for a bit, because there is more than I wanted to say about the Mercy, given the material on the gift keeps bubbling up. So, because I analyze the RG’s in pop culture, there is a significant buildup of material that naturally flows. So, here goes…

Yes….the kid is a Mercy….and had the Exhorter for a surrogate/adoptive father…..

And his wound? It’s being presented with the question, “are you enough without the crutches, and the people, and the relationships, and the tricks, and the gifts, and the resources, and everything that is not the L-rd Himself who must alone stand guard over your heart without any additions?”

Because if you aren’t enough without the suit, then you’ll never be enough with the suit.”

When we first meet Peter in the MCU (Captain America: Civil War), we see as a boy with serious confidence deficit. He hides himself from those who love him and blames himself for the bad things that happen around him. In Homecoming and then Far From Home, we come to an individual with not just problems with self-confidence, but also serious legitimacy issues. From Civil War to Homecoming and Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame, there was a deep internal struggle with both his identity, place, and purpose. He did not see himself for what Tony saw in him, even though it took Tony some time to come around to embracing Peter’s inherent value and design, and to father him effectively.

But eventually confidence bloomed and grew in Peter. This deep well took a hit when Tony died. With his father figure gone, he had to develop a different source, and dig a different well.

Unfortunately, this very negative belief about himself that he wasn’t good enough or strong enough to fill Tony’s shoes, led him to give up the resources that Tony gave to him to someone he thought could be trusted. Following that, Beck toyed with him and, because of Beck’s possession of Stark Tech, he was able to fool Peter into questioning the fabric of reality.

Though it was never about filling Tony’s shoes, but filling and walking in his own shoes, and flowing in his design.

Mercies, when their confidence is deeply tested, usually in the area of relationships, may question reality in the worst way. And this will bring them to a crossroads.

They ultimately must come to a place where they rest in the One Thing that will never abandon them, even when everything crumbles around them: the anchoring point of the nature of G-d, Who Is fiercely loving, completely consistent, will not forsake them, and commited to His covenant.

The wounding comes when they are stripped of those things that once brought them confidence, and the healing comes when their internal structure is so aligned with The One Who Is Perfect Reality that the external world deteriorating impacts them in a decreasing fashion. Dependence on the Bridegroom and no one else, not even family, brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers, spouses, close friends, is what stabilizes the Mercy as they grow through the season that threatens to wound them.

As a result of that, the L-rd pushes the Mercy to adopt a capacity to fix their problems piece-by-piece, without crutches, and as a result, they grow to respond to the following challenge.

As a result, they can either grow into what they were made to do, or shrink back, and their legacy be forgotten or picked up by someone else.

Mercies are going to either bloom or crack under pressure, and as a result of staying the course under pressure, something else comes of them. Something really good.

So, if they bloom in adversity, and they respond to the pressure by leaning hard into the L-rd (Proverbs 3:5-6; Isaiah 54:1-16) instead of relationships governing them, they govern their relationships. And to those relationships they add boundaries, which breaks the spirit of codependency.

Biblically speaking, I think about the confidence John got as a Mercy through living on the Island of Patmos, where he wrote the Revelation and then penned his gospel.

Just some thoughts here…..

Now, onto the Teacher….or not really…but that should be the following post…if I can get off my soapbox long enough to execute…

My Review of DID Series 3, Complete With the Cribbed Notes, Comments, Ruminations, and Thoughts from the Weekend

A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son.
O L-rd, how many are my foes!
Many are rising against me;
Many are saying of my soul,
“There is no salvation for him in G-d.”
Selah
But you, O L-rd, are a shield about me,
My glory, and the lifter of my head.
I cried aloud to the L-rd,
And He answered me from His holy hill.
Selah
I lay down and slept;
I woke again, for the L-rd sustained me.
I will not be afraid of many thousands of people
Who have set themselves against me all around.
Psalm 3:1-6 ESV

It was exceptionally appropriate and a touch ironic for me that Arthur led off New Strategies for DID, Part 3, with the first three verses of this passage.
Appropriate because this passage deals with dynamics (rest, sustainment, answers from the L-rd, identifying Him with our glory, and the one who brings us dignity,
Ironic because the first time I heard this psalm preached, it came from someone who ultimately became an adversary and who was originally the picture of safety.
The second time I heard this passage taught and broken down, was at this live event, 17 years later.  Arthur did not know it, but when he began the live event by framing it with this passage, he was ministering a great deal of life and healing to my spirit and soul.
He focused on verse 3, and told us that one of the shades of meaning for the phrase that is translated “the lifter of my head” is “the one who brings us dignity”.
And then from there, he discussed that part of our job and focus as we minister to clients is to bring dignity to not just the people to whom we minister, but also to the parts with whom we interact.  No matter how damaged, or mangled, or raw, or beaten, or bruised, or angry, or vengeful a part is, our job as followers of the L-rd, counselors, and clinicians is to bring dignity to-and spare further harm of-parts.
The lion’s share of the live event covered live demonstrations with individuals who had parts, and each of these was followed by Q and A segments, where we got to pick his brain and interact with each of the demos.
 
INDIVIDUAL WITH AN ANGRY PART
He then modeled this dignity with an individual who had han angry part.  And, get this: he blessed the anger of the angry part, specifically given the fact that anger is a sign of two things:

  1. A sense of justice
  2. An objective.

And when he came to the issue of blessing the angry part, I felt a specific sense of release when it came to my own issues with anger, which are many and varied.  I spent a great deal of my own life being angered at people passively accepting garbage that was not G-d’s purpose or plan, and just acting exceptionally conciliatory to situations that they did not need to accept.
 
INDIVIDUAL WITH A LILLITH
From there, Arthur moved to another few individuals that had varying degrees of sensitivity in their spirit.  He had variously covered some stuff to do with the spirit of Lillith, which, when present, often negatively affects relationships between women and either other women or other men.  In some of the mystic writings, Lillith is associated with feminism and control, and the old legends say that Lillith was Adam’s first wife.  Now, we as followers of Christ know that is a farce, but there is a spirit associated with that legend that has sought to create a name and press for “herself” that looks to infiltrate and damage marriages, close friendships, familial relationships, and relationships within churches.  There is a livestream from the SLG website that I would also recommend on this topic for those that want to dive further in.
As Arthur worked with that issue with his client, I felt a jump in my own spirit, and a grip on that issue.  During this second client, I worked with the L-rd from my spirit, to work through some of those issues that were cited in the work on Lillith.  I have dealt with a number of personal issues that pertain to negative relationships with other women and men, in terms of control, and while I am not a woman myself, there are dynamics of giving and receiving that affect both men and women, and the dynamic of receiving is more of a feminine trait, strange as that sounds, and my receiver had been broken in some ways for quite a while.  I began to feel a sense of relief as I worked through the issues, some which my wife and I have begun working on ourselves together with each other.  The payoff has been pretty substantial.
 
THE INTANGIBLES
Following this, there were a couple of other clients that Arthur worked with, but what really landed with me, beyond these first couple, was the level of camaraderie among the group.  There was that certain intangible quality of new friendship-building in a conference on Dissociative Identity Disorder that one does not typically encounter.  Typically, this is an atmosphere that I would have expected at a marriage and family conference.  This day was so life-altering in terms of the communion and strength of community that happened, that 20 of us went out to dinner at the end, and many new relationships were forged.  I began the process of risking in a way I did not know I was capable of.  And I was able to take part in the beauty of a new expression of G-d the Father’s love of Community.
Certainly, we need to have DID and SRA in the mainstream conversation, and we need fewer people who are intimidated to work with it, and along with ministry to survivors, we need competent people who are trustworthy and gentle to work with those who are divided and surviving,  not merely well-meaning and loving ignoramuses, nor competent jerks.
Principle-wise, another facet of this series that was so critical is the way in which Arthur built out the concept of trust and taking our time when it comes to working with those that are hurting and need us to maintain a spirit of gentleness and humility.
Also, another aspect of the value in this teaching is the way in which Arthur worked with a client who had a number of Alien Human Spirits that affected that client’s journey IN THE CONTEXT OF WORKING WITH PARTS.
Seriously, gang, this series was veritable potpourri, mixed in with some solid anchor points that would benefit any believer who works in the healing/deliverance/counseling/pastoral/friend-of-survivors-and-parts professions and wants to experiment with some different, nimble modalities.  This series will be well worth your time and purchase, if for nothing else than it will carry the fragrance of intimacy and touch on some topics that need convering desperately in the body of Christ.

A part is often caused by a trauma that is too big to bear.
A little kid goes down to use bathroom and gets a one second picture of a light on in parents’ bedroom of Daddy trying to kill Mommy. Causes division.

Prayer for the angry part
Jesus has the sword that can separate anything.
I ask the L-rd to visit the place of your harm, and separate the angry one in all of their humanity, and separate them from the various places on the property from the spirit of abandonment, and restore them to original design.

Separate them from all of the other negative dynamics. Cleanse defilement from SSBBO, Office of Personhood, Daughter/son, man/woman. Apply the Blood of Christ to the situation.
I ask You would extract from the angry one the demonic presence that the part thinks is part of its essence. Remove every unholy spirit form the presence of the angry part.

Enoch’s angry story of judgment:
It was also about these that Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, “Behold, the L-rd comes with ten thousands of his holy ones,
to execute judgment on all and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness that they have committed in such an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things that ungodly sinners have spoken against him.”

Jude 14-15
That is anger and judgment, and G-d can handle and love our anger. Now, we cleanse the angry parts and we equip and release them and they work with Father to deal with the stuff. And do we need jumper cables.
#DID3
24))
We have a whole dynamic of psychology of wounded healers that know all, and dispense all the knowledge to the “stupid” know-little clients, and they are better classed in their discipline as “welfare psychology”. Rather we should give our clients an enviornment of collaboration, treat them as wise and capable, and give them the dignity to do their own work.
It is not my job or the job of any clinician to fix someone. It is our job to work with the clients and their assets.

Give them the dignity to know they are wise, and capable, and bring something to the table.
Stop being a know-it-all, or even a know-it-most.

Crap can get done by religion.
When a demonination or church embraces religion, then one of the evidences of that is people dying before their time. Including premature death through cancer.
One of the fruits is that we are battering people with religion and garbage and formulas only. Also, an OBSSESSION WITH CALLING PEOPLE HERETICS.
There are demoninations that are dying a slow death because of widespread premature death through cancer.
If there are people dying of cancer widespread in your group of institution, you need to ask G-d what is wrong with the context, and you need to look at bringing clarity so the group can repent and work through the issue.

Exhorters are sensitive to rejection. They must come to terms with understanding and engaging deeply with Reality, Sowing and Reaping, and Pain and Suffering first in order to have a right framework. Period. If you are an Exhorter and refuse to hunt for Reality, Sowing and Reaping, and Pain and Suffering, you will not understand how to work with others well.
Secondly, other gifts need be able to determine if an Exhorter has a grip on this threefold principle or not, and if they do have a grip on this principle, the other gifts need to walk gently with Exhorters.

If Exhorters do not have a grip on Reality, Sowing and Reaping, and Pain and Suffering, OR the other six are interacting with a non-Reality-laden Exhorter in a soft fashion, OR the other six are not interacting with a Reality-Embracing Exhorter in anything other than a gentle fashion, then the interactions can be hampered.
Exhorters that are operating non-Reality are going to have a hard time interacting with others in the areas of their non-Reality.
Exhorters that are operating in Reality, parts or no, that are being harshly treated by others who have shelved the Fruit of the spirit, especially Prophets, can flee from the interaction.
If they have desired to embrace the pain, then we need to be willing to walk with them deeply, and even if we say “what are you talking about”, we need to be willing to work with them affectionately.

As far as cancer goes, I am not being metaphorical here.
Further, those cancers that are obtained in toxic environments may also not be getting healed when we visit various churches because they will still return to their cancer cluster, and the cancer is the fruit of a toxic environment, where betrayal or hidden iniquity or other nastiness is allowed to fester while believers walk in denial and lack of discernment when it comes to dealing the the garbage of a defiled portal or defiled time and land.

If you live in a landfill and visit a hospital for a conference and then return to the landfill to dwell and feed on defiled truth, then you are going to still have the negative fruit.
You can go to Bethel for healing and revival all you want, but if you live in a community with a hidden well of poison and people don’t flow in discernment, and they shut you down and stone you for being a Prophet, then the cancer will remain.
Just gonna say it this way, there are denominations that are dying and their missionaries have gotten loaded up with cancer on their first term out.
Cancer is not the fruit of life, but the fragrance of a culture of betrayal.
Kill the betrayal, and repent, or else your church or denomination will continue to reap destruction.

PROVOCATIVE THOUGHTS IN THE MIDST OF THE LIVE EVENT:
Gang, don’t just slow down and read my rants about church, or just my work teaching a dynamic. Rather get to know the whole of what I have to say, a broad bevy of David, and then you can move into understanding fullness. Then you can see a balance and not merely one dynamic.
Our capacity to call out heretics or our capacity to be gentle or our capacity to teach or our capacity to correct a problem, each taken alone apart from the rest, will provide an incomplete picture. We want a whole picture.

Calling out heretics is barely a detail in the kingdom.
A main idea is hunting for design.
You can call out liberal Christians, Evangelical Christians, Catholic Christians, Jewish believers, or Republicans, or Democrats, or, or, or, and completely miss out on the whole.
You can repeat how cursed our President is, or how cursed people are who speak out against the President, or this or that.
I am sorry, I won’t respond much to those who yell about politics on this forum, because none of you who “know the truth” about politics are changing anyone’s mind. Besides, the politics of this season flows from a very small-minded, didactic mentality, both on the left and on the right. I do not know many deep-spirited, large-spirited people who defend or criticize one of the more than two facets of the political reality in the United States.
It is time to move from the shallow end of the kiddie pool to the depths of Wakulla Spring in all arenas. What we have been bantering back and forth the last 18 years have been cups of water, because we have been mesmerized by the majority of the Prophetic Movement, which by and large FLOWS in a mesmerizing spirit and an open psychic door. We need to concern ourselves not with cups of water, but the deeps beyond Leviathan’s realm.
Deepen, widen, broaden, lengthen. This is broader than a demented Exhorter, and the small potatoes of heresy-hunting.
The depths of G-d.
Q, the big five networks, and the rest are the muck on the surface.
The depths are there to discern.
Why are you satisfied with so little?
Jesus did not die for a shallow church.

A lot of times, the authority that we use that we have earned in the church can lead to others becoming divided, especially if there is a controlling or abusive flavor to the behavior. Our authority should be used to love, and often times, in light of the truth that “the gifts and callings of G-d are irrevocable”, we can, walking in our authority, mistreat others.
This sort of unwise behavior must stop, and it contributes to our people becoming less and less integrated and willing to walk with and trust us.
