                 For Those Who Feel Disqualified 
                Because of The Sins of Loved Ones


Child of Mine, I do not disqualify you when a family member makes bad 
decisions or choices.  I do not hold you accountable for the sin of
others, but only for the sins that you commit. And even in that, even if 
you sin, you can find forgiveness and cleansing through the blood that 
My Son shed for you on Calvary.  I am not a God that condemns My children 
and pushes them away.  Rather I am a God that loves and forgives and 
draws My children closer to Me.  That is why My Son shed His precious
blood for you on Calvary, to break the power of condemnation and 
disqualification off of your life, to unite you with your Heavenly 
Father and to bring you into the family of God.  So do not think that
the bad choices and sins of your loved ones can take away what Jesus
has accomplished for you on the cross and in His ressurrection.  Again,
I say to you, you are not condemned because of the actions of another,
you are not disqualified when a loved one makes an ungodly or wrong 
choice.

The enemy of your souls wants to disqualfiy you and will try to use 
anything he can against you.   He is a liar, and the father of lies,
and much of what he tries to hold against you is based in lies. He
is an accuser, and many of his accusations are false.  Do you allow
your heart to be comdemned when the assuser of the brothern tries to
a family member's actions against you.  His goal is to lie, cheat, 
steal, falsely accuse and do whatever he can to make you feel disqualfied
so that you will not be effective in advancing My kingdom and doing with
Me what I am doing.

When your child is arrested for commiting a crime, you have not 
sinned -- your child has.  When your spouse is unfaithful to your 
marriage vows -- you are not defiled, your spouse is.  I do not condemn 
you for wrong choices that a family member makes.  I do not hold it 
aginst you when your relative sins.

The accuser of the brothern wants nothing more thant to take you out.
He wants to disqualfiy you at all costs.  He wants you to feel small, 
embarassed, humiliated, unworthy.  He desires to shovel undeserved blame 
and accusation on you.  He knows that if he can convince you that you are
disqualfied, that you will not raise up with Me in My power and anoniting.
He knows that you will not advance the kingdom if you feel ashamed to 
approach Me.  He knows you will struggle to walk in victory, power and
authority if you feel dirty and unclean because of another's actions or
choices.  His desire is to take you out, to make you uneffective, and he
will not hesistate to condemn you for offenses that a loved one commits.

But I will not disqualify you based on the actions or choices of a loved
one.  So shake of the condemnation and accusations of the enemy.  Receive
My love and acceptance, poured out freely opon you.  Know that I am not
easily deceived, that I see and know your heart and your purity before
Me.  Child of Mine, I have not disqualfied you and I will not condemn you
for the wrong choices that a loved one makes.

Instead, I will raise you up with power and authority in prayer and 
intercession and spiritual warfare, that you may march into the enemy's
camp and take back the loved one that was "stolen from you."  I will
give you strategies and plans to advance My kingdom in  that loved one's
life, to break off the blinders that Satan has put over their eyes, that
they might repent and turn to the living and true God.  Child of mine,
your ministry is not destroyed.  Your effectiveness is not lessened, you
are not smaller or of lesser value because a loved one has sinned.  Receive
My truth, receive My acceptance, receive My empowerment and be set free
from the bondages of disqualification tha the enemy has tried to bind you
with.  Break free, rise up, and fulfill your destiny in Me!  I have not
disqualified you.
