"God’s Word, His Principles"

Final 4-minute read

Beloved, whether you know the Bible well or have never read it before, GOD'S Word alone must be your guide to restore your joy, your lost childhood, and all the relationships you have suffered. Only GOD can heal you from your past and give you a bright future. This book that you are now reading consists of most of the promises that the Lord used to guide me through the fires of trial and adversity in each of my restorations and so much healing without any effort or trying on my part.

Since the first relationship that the Lord restored was my marriage, He faithfully guided me through His Word and showed me that I had violated many of the principles of marriage. He also showed me other sins I was unaware of or had never dealt with (by repenting). All of my sins and violations led to the destruction and fall of my marriage. This was true for my relationship with my siblings, in-laws, and children. Unless we build our lives on His Word, destruction is imminent and sure to come. “Everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house, and it fell—and great was its fall” (Matt. 7:26–27). So chances are your relationships have suffered but need not suffer anymore. Each change will shine more light in your life, and each step will become lighter and feel freer.

Nevertheless, unlike my restorations that were brought on by my ignorance of God's Word, YOU were innocent and were not meant to know or follow most of these principles. Your pain was due to the sins of others, not you. Yet, despite everything, the path to healing will allow you to take control of your life by tapping into the same powerful promises that have helped me, and every day will help you feel washed and clean.

It may be that your lost innocence and childhood resulted in your marriage and other relationships ending up in shambles. Some may have been completely destroyed. You will soon find if you are not aware of it yet, that it is not just the other person who violated God’s principles—and I am not talking about your assailant because you do not share any part of that sin against you no matter what anyone says! You may find, as I did, that if you contributed to the destruction of a relationship as an adult, it was almost always done in ignorance. “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge” (Hos. 4:6). Once you understand and accept this principle, you will experience the first turning point in your relationship and take back the control you felt you lost in your life.

The wisdom that I learned from reading and rereading God's promises in the Bible is what the Lord led me to, and each promise helped me to understand what the Bible really was and that it was what I needed it to be in my life—my ultimate guide. The Bible is filled with the spiritual laws of His creation. When God created the world, He made it with physical laws, like the law of gravity, and with spiritual laws.

Just as violating the physical law of gravity will result in the consequences of us stumbling or an object falling, so will violating the principles in Scripture regarding each relationship result in that relationship falling.

Another amazing discovery is that the world's ways are almost always opposite of the ways of God and His Word. The way most "Christians" deal with what's happened to them is most often exactly the same way that anyone in the world would deal with every aspect of it. What you will find, as I did, is that this is the exact opposite of the way that God intended crises to be dealt with to bring healing . “ . . . This is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith” (1 John 5:4). 

Be sure to ask God for a female prayer partner who will believe God's promises with you for your spiritual, emotional, and physical health. If you want your life, health, and well-being restored, stay away from support groups!! You do not belong there if you desire to have God restore your emotional health! Support groups, by in large, are usually nothing more than “pity parties” or “reliving trauma” that keeps your memories fresh and raw. If you want a fully restored life, you have to choose now whether you want to find hope and true healing or if you want to settle for superficial healing. “They heal the brokenness of the daughter of My people superficially, Saying, ‘Peace, peace,’ But there is no peace”—Jeremiah 8:11. “Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then has not the health of the daughter of my people been restored?” Jeremiah 8:22.

When I began to follow God’s way, which was the opposite of everyone else's, I saw my relationships and life improve. The ways of the world always result in destruction, but the ways of God always bring about healing, restoration, and joy. “For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life” (Gal. 6:8).

If followed diligently with a sincere and humble heart, every one of God's principles will result in an immediate or future restoration—it is guaranteed, not by me, but promised by God in His Word.

No matter how damaged, the more a woman follows God's principles, the more restoration she will see as a direct result of her obedience and faith. All those who stay in crisis or never see their relationship and life restored are those who refuse to believe and obey the spiritual laws of God or foolishly believe that they are above the laws of God.

If you are one of those who believe strongly that you are not “under the law” and are therefore free to violate God’s laws, “may it never be!” “What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be!” (Rom. 6:15).

“Do we then nullify the Law through faith? May it never be! On the contrary, we establish the Law” (Rom. 3:31). “May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it?” (Rom. 6:2).

Those who understood the law of gravity learned to rise above it, resulting in man’s ability to fly. The Believer who studies the Word of God will rise above the world and astonish the unbeliever who wants to seek God for themselves. Any woman, who believes she is above the law of gravity and violates that law by jumping out of a plane without a parachute, will fall to her death. It is the same for the Believer and the answer to why so many Christians live lives full of destruction—they believe they are above the law and choose to violate it.

There Is MORE Help!

When women continued to come to us broken and weary, we were led to create the RMI "RestoreMinistriesInternational.com" to give more help, support, compassion, and guidance to those seeking to restore their relationships and lives. Since then, we have branched out to dozens of websites to deal with the many facets of our lives.

We look forward to the opportunity to help you through our website and to pray for you as you post prayer requests. Until then, let me pray for you now . . .

“Dear Lord, please guide this Beloved Daughter through the despair and pain, leading her away from the ongoing crises in her relationships. And her ears shall hear a word behind her saying, this is the way, walk here, when she turns to her right and when she turns to her left (see Isa. 30:21).

“Please reassure her when she sees a thousand fall on her right side and ten thousand at her left—help her to know that as she follows You, it will not happen to her (see Ps. 91:7). Hide her under your protective wings.

“Help her to find the narrow path that will lead her to life, the abundant life that You have for her and her family and for all those she loves. Lord, I pray for a testimony that You can use for Your glory when she is new and whole! We give You all the honor and the glory through it all. Amen.”
