Ponder some thoughts with me this morning. I know you just woke up, I know it is early and you have a list of things to do today, but take a moment and consider something the Lord just showed me.

Our frustration with people is not because we hate people, but because we have such a deep love for people. Our love for them sees in them things they cannot see in themselves and we want them to know who they really are, but when they don’t see it we get frustrated. Want to know a secret, they get frustrated with you for the same reasons.

The Lord gave me a chiropractic adjustment in the spirit yesterday morning and it lifted burdens off of me yesterday and unlocked revelation in me today. I was praying for four people and as I began to pray for them, the Lord began to speak to me about them. Listen to what the Lord said.

“There has been a deviation of original design, but I am the God who brings about the restoration of their original creation.” The Holy Spirit went on to say, “Remove deviation from them in prayer and restore to them original creation.” Restoration trumps deviation; creation trumps devastation. Everyone is redeemable.

Here are the four deviations that God is going to restore to original creation. One is those who are addicted to alcohol. The deviation is they are filled with wine and spirits, but the Lord says I created them to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Two, the deviation is sexual perversion, adultery specifically, but their original design was to be a covenant keeper, a defender of covenants. Three, the deviation is love of money, but their original creation was to be a lover of God. Fourth, the deviation is extreme selfishness, but original design was to be servant of all.

The Lord showed me the deviation and then the original creation. When we see a deviation in someone, we are seeing the counterfeit of original design. Rebuke, bind, cast out the deviation from them in prayer and plant, loose, decree into them their original design. God is about to restore people to their original design and it will be shocking to those who saw them spend so many years in deviation. Remember what happened when Saul became Paul.
