I recently connected with a Sister in Christ who had experienced profound alienation at the hands of a former spouse. She has been collecting her six children from the cloud of confusion that has enveloped them for at least the past 17 years and has continued delivering them into the hands of the Lord. This woman helped me to understand the spiritual nature of pathogenic personality disorders and its effect on relationships. She correctly understands that the battle we are engaged in is one of principalities, not of flesh and blood. I appreciate all of what Dr. Craig Childress has done for the afflicted families of Attachment Based Parental Alienation. His work helps to establish a natural basis for understanding the psychological constructs used to explain the condition. It was the link that allowed me to accept that I am in fact, dealing with the demonic spirit of Jezebel in my life and that I need to humble myself and accept the Word more fully and even completely into my life. Without Him I am nothing and cannot accomplish anything. I am smart but certainly not smarter than Satan. I accept that my Advocate has already defeated the enemy and all I need to do is open my damaged heart for healing for it to be accomplished. Then I will take no credit for the repaired relationships which I desperately miss and desire. Today my blog takes a turn into the spiritual realm where the ultimate battle is being waged. Thanks for visiting.
Parental Alienation is Psychological Child Abuse

Subject: Forgiveness
What we don’t forgive we become or start to exhibit the same traits. The very thing we may hate in others we will do, that is if we do not forgive from the heart. It’s been proven over and over.
Identifying the attack and not the attacker. Forgiveness is about allowing the spirit of forgiveness from Jesus to flow through us. It actually releases ourself from bondage.
When you still see a lot of focus on past pain and hurt from another, then the person has not forgiven. That is the first pivotal step. It’s not about making things right with an abuser or manipulator. It’s about getting your heart right before God.
Forgiveness is supernatural and will take the super natural power of Jesus to overcome. We cannot in and of ourselves forgive without Him. If we don’t forgive from the heart, then we will find ourselves in a place of alienation. Both from God and others whom we love. Because to love like Jesus loved, then we must forgive from the heart and not just mental assent.
The bible talks about sending the tormentors, to those who don’t forgive. Satan can have a field day in all areas of our life, by not forgiving. We will have little or no relationship with people that matter. Any or most of them will be loveless or without real passion on our part, due to our own stubborn hard heart.
We will always think, that it is everyone else. But we’ve become so focused on the problem and what others are doing to us. And the problem itself can become an idol in our heart. Especially if we are not focused on loving God, the brethren and fulfilling our divine purpose. We can make even overcoming Jezebel an idol if we don’t forgive. And we miss showing love to others.
We must remember Jezebel chooses weak and enabling victims. So in exposing Jezebel, then we are also exposing ourselves as weak victims also. People who are cowardly and will not take a stand for truth in their lives. To overcome people must be willing to stand for truth, by their life. And be honest about their own heart. Do not love in word, but in deed.
Men who believe love comes from having sex, then will keep giving into to Jezebel. These men love the empowerment, that they think Jezebel is giving them. It does feed their ego and desire to be masculine. Remember Jezebel chooses her victims. Usually from families where there was not a lot of motherly tender affection and the man craves that. But in the end, that spirit renders you powerless. And these men will find themselves unable to love in real relationships, because they are self focused and not God focused.
To truly overcome you must walk in divine love towards those, that are truly chosen of God. The inability to love God’s children is the inability to truly love God. The only thing that God is really calling us to do is LOVE. You know you have passed from death unto life, when you love the brethren.
You can’t love without the spirit of Christ in you. It is not a form, a religion or a system. It comes from a personal relationship with Him and with those who also have relationship with him. It’s called fellowship with those who love Him. If we alienate those who have His presence, then we will dry up spiritually and have a form of godliness.
It’s not enough to have mental assent. You must have relationship. It’s not reading, singing or praying. It’s not something, that is rote. You can’t just pray Jezebel away. You have to take steps to deal with it and severe all ties socially, personally and in this media age. Any foot hole we give the enemy to be tied to them, then it will be an open door of tolerating it.
It’s about yielding your spirit and will to Him. And allowing His spirit to flow through you and out to others. If not we will be in a continued state of alienation from God and others. We will operate in that same alienation to the people that matter most and that is true brothers and sisters in Christ.
