Freedom and Release

I currently am an ex-CFS sufferer, praise God! I have known the fear of being curled up in a fetal position, in bed all day with intense muscle pain from head to toe. The strongest dose of pain killer could only take the edge off of the pain. I have known the strain on my marriage, as my wife struggled with the frustration of having to cuddle up to a slimy, sweaty husband for months, who was often too weak to even return a decent hug. My heartfelt desire in sharing this story of how I was released from CFS, is that it may assist others in finding a pathway of healing. I have no desire to be controversial, but I must share the truth of how God set me free.

On Saturday, June 5, 1999, I attended a seminar about cults and the occult, and in particular, on Freemasonry. At the end of that night, there was a time of corporate prayer, specifically renouncing the generational curses that come about as a result of the oaths taken in Masonic rituals. (I have never been a Mason and have rejected becoming involved, however, I understand that at least three generations of my forefathers have been Masons.) At the end of that night, God, through His Holy Spirit, did major surgery in my life. Since that night, all the major symptoms of CFS in my body have ceased! For a day or two after that night, I had a deep "healing pain" in my bones.

Two days later, I went on a four day break with my wife. We walked four to five kilometers per day. I had rarely walked with my wife, for years before that, and would have to turn back early, if I did. I had to be careful and not over do things for a while, as I at times still struggled with tiredness. My muscles were occasionally sore and stiff, due to the shock of extra use after years of inactivity. I still occasionally struggled with digestive problems, but this has now normalized.

It has been over six years since that night. I have had only one relapse when all the symptoms of CFS returned for 2 days which I spent in bed. I received release by prayerfully renouncing Masonic curses in a similar way to the night of my original healing.

Having been out of the workforce for nearly 3 years, I still have some emotional struggles to overcome in the area of self-confidence. My energy levels have now returned. I have completed a primary school teaching degree. I am currently a part-time high school chaplain as well as the primary care giver for my disabled son.

CFS is a very perplexing and multifaceted illness. I believe its causes include environment (pollution, chemical sensitivity), physical influences (viral, dietary), emotional influences (long-term stress, grief), medical influences (vaccinations), and spiritual issues (generational curses through occult involvement). There are many readily accessible resources on these issues except for the last one - spiritual.

Unlike native or indigenous peoples, our "western world, rational thinking mindset," has difficulty accepting that physical harm can result from negative spiritual involvement. We hear much in the medical field about people being genetically predisposed to a certain illness or disease, including CFS. Perhaps not in all, but I believe in many cases, there is a spiritual predisposition, in the form of a generational curse, at the root of that genetic predisposition. Unless these generational curses are renounced and cut off, then there is a "freedom" for diseases to continue to manifest down a generational line.

My challenge to you is to prayerfully consider your spiritual heritage and seek out people and resources to assist you with any issues which may be keeping you in ill health. By all means, continue to pursue all possible issues that may be causing your illness, but don't neglect the spiritual. If in many cases CFS is spiritually rooted, we should not find it surprising that medical science is finding the mysteries of the illness hard to unravel.

Some months after my healing, I met another lady who had been battling CFS for 17 years. She had been president of the local CFS support group in New Zealand. She too was completely set free in a similar way, and for the same reason I was.

Through the hardest months of my illness, I declared I would widely promote and sell anything that gave me sustained release from CFS. Therefore, I promote to you the healing power of Jesus Christ, through the renouncing of generational curses. I can't however sell it to you, because it will not cost you anything!

Please feel free to pass this testimony on to anyone you know struggling with CFS or fibromyalgia. They need all the positive news they can get!
