A Call to Deliver

Brethren, If a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual RESTORE such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.    Gal 6:1 

This scripture is addressed to the Body of Christ.  If we are filled with the Holy Spirit then we are qualified to be able to minister restoration to our fellow believers who have backslidden or have been trapped or bound by sin. 

A demonstration of restoration can be found in the life of Lazarus being raised from the dead but he was still bound head to foot with his linen graveclothes.   If you notice in John 11:44 it says " And when He who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth.  Jesus said to them,  LOOSE HIM, AND LET HIM GO." 

It was not Jesus's responsibility to unwrap and untie these graveclothes from Lazarus but instead he commanded the disciples to do it.  How many people do you know that are suffering from bondages and are bound by sin?   You have been entrusted with a ministry of deliverance.   Since you are spiritual you are qualified to set the captives free so go forth my friend and bring the deliverance that people are searching for.
