Mutiple partners trouble
Yep, it's those pesky Rephaim again
Hi,
Dear beloved of the LORD.
New Year, new partner?
Er...
No!
Definitely not.
Quick heads up before we start...
This article may offend some. If so, my apologies.
I share this because I want to help as many saints as possible get ready to see Jesus face to face in the rapture very soon.
If I can't, at least I tried.
That said,
Let's go there and confront our past sexual congress.*
Meaning,
Our past relationships with others (sexually).
Not every one of us were blessed to have been brought up in loving, chaste Christian circles. Then to marry and only have one spouse.
(If you were, then you are blessed indeed. Praise GOD!).
For the rest of us...
Not having such a Godly upbringing often means baggage.
Especially sexual.
Remember this passage of scripture?
It's key...
"The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 14 And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power.
15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ?
Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never!
16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, “The two will become one flesh.”
17 But he who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him.
18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.
19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,
20 For you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body. "
1 Corinthians 6:13-18 ESV
Okay from the above it's clear...
When sexual union takes place the man and woman are physically joined. Yet they are also joined in other ways too.
Curious ways.
An invisible (spirit-soul) bond or seal is instantly created too.
The original Greek in the passage above describes this as a 'cementing' or 'yoking' of two people together.
Plus,
Mysteriously, an exchange of a piece of personality appears also to take place both ways. Something of each passes each to the other.
These invisible human pathways or ‘gateways’ are called soul ties.
Important because...
If as Paul says in 1 Corinthians 6:17 above that someone "Joined to the LORD" thereby becomes "ONE SPIRIT with Him"...
The reverse can happen both with a humans spirit (or soul) and sadly also... with demons (unclean spirits) on certain levels too if sexual activity is outside God's divine sanctions for it.
For example...
Because fornication and adultery are not sanctioned by the LORD, demons work to stir up peoples carnal nature to get them to commit sin.
They try to drive people into (simply put)...
Fornication (sex before marriage).
Adultery (sex outside of marriage).
They exploit these powerful, invisible pathways between couples. And use such soul ties to pass from one partner to the other.
This sketch below may make it clearer…
Of course during such times of deep intimacy our defences are down which means...
If our sexual activity is outside of God's divinely protected environment for intimacy we risk all sorts of danger.
Which is how the enemy gains access.
Looking again at this scripture (V16,17 while ignoring the reference to prostitute).
We see something which is a big deal in the spirit...
16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, “The two will become one flesh.”
It's vital to realise what is actually at stake here.
Proverbs 2:16-18 makes it clearer...
"Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman, from the wayward woman with her seductive words, 17 who has left the partner of her youth and ignored the covenant she made before God.
18 Surely her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the dead.
19 None who go to her return or attain the paths of life."
Proverbs 2:18 NIV
(Ignore the reference to 'woman' above. Obviously the scripture also applies the other way round. Men allure women the same way).
Here's what's essential...
Verse 18:
"Surely her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the dead. "
Proverbs 2: 18 NIV
Yet what does the phrase... 'The spirits of the dead' mean exactly?
Well, the original Hebrew reveals something extraordinary.
It says...
"Her path leads down to death... and to the REPHAIM הָרְפָאַים [Literal Hebrew].
Who are the Rephaim?
The disembodied spirits of the 'Nephilim.' ְפַילַים
The Rephaim or Nephilim were beings that the Bible reveals came from the sin the angels engaged in when they went after women as recorded in Genesis six.
Their offspring the giants the Bible speaks so much about.
(See Genesis 6:1-4, Deuteromy 2:20, 3:11. Numbers 13:32, Joshua 12:4, 13:12, 17:15. See Septuangint renderings too).
Proverbs 2:18 is speaking of demons here - unclean spirits.
These are the same spirits who Peter says fell because of lust in 2 Peter 1:4 NKJV so their activities are ancient.
As an aside…
Therefore from the above it becomes clear that engaging in sexual sin means you come into direct contact/connection with ‘giants’ in the spirit.
(Now for some you understand why your warfare has been so fierce!
Don’t be afraid though.
Jesus is LORD. He is supreme over any giant.
He WON forever for us :)
Anyway…
These 'Rephaim'
Unable to rest in death, they roam the earth seeking an human 'earth suit' to inhabit. Or 'houses' as Jesus puts it (Matthew 12:43-45).
Now to finish,
Here's the uncomfortable truth but I'm going there...
In the light of all above if someone had twenty partners in the past they're likely still attached to them (and those and their partners spirits too!) now.
Their...
Soul attachments to humans.
Soul/spirit attachments to spirits.
Will be still be live, (Christian or not),
And they need to be removed.
Why?
Because even though they may be way in the past...
If a saint has not renounced, repented and is released from them, these 'pathways' or soul ties will still be active in their life.
Which means...
1. The 'souls' of past partners can still interfere with their life.
2. Spirits transferred over to them in the past, are likely still there.
3. Demons can keep driving them into sexual sins they can't resist.
So...
These bullies need to be got rid of.
Don't worry though...
Jesus defeated every last one by the Blood of His Cross!
Now here is a prayer to pray out loud…
NOTE: This prayer is more to prepare you before you get ministry in these areas if any of this article has resonated with you.
This is your best course of action.
Sharing and praying with wise counsellors to deal with this sort of stuff (not just praying on your own) is way better than struggling by yourself.
Okay that clear, to conclude here's the prayer...
"Dear LORD GOD,
Thank you for loving me unconditionally.
I realise my past affairs and sexual activity joined me in certain ways, spiritually through my soul as well as physically with past partners.
This formed soul ties between them and I.
I renounce all such activities and repent of them with all my heart in the Name of Jesus Christ.
Specifically I renounce all sexual activity with [A,B,C name past partners]. And I ask that all soul ties between them and I be cut, broken and severed forever in the Name of Jesus Christ.
In the Name of Jesus Christ, King of Kings and Lord of Lords I break, cut and sever every soul tie between [A,B,C name past partners one by one] forever.
And I also speak to every demon associated with those past sexual partners which crossed from them to me and refuse you permission to access any aspect of my being - spirit, soul or body... mind, emotions or feelings included from this moment on in Jesus Christs Name.
I thank you Father that the "Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the Law of Sin and Death." (Romans 8:2 NKJV).
As such these unclean spirits associated with death as Proverbs 2:18 says have NO JURISDICTION over any aspect of my being or life.
So...
I reject, refute and refuse every claim these demons have had over me in the past.
I bind you and all of your work against, in and through me both now and forever in Jesus Christ's Name.
Dear Father in heaven, now please send your mighty angels to bind these spirits now in Jesus Christs Name. I ask that they will chain them with chains which can't be broken in Jesus Name.
And keep them chained...
Until
You lead me to wise counsellors who can pray with me about these things more deeply. Then together we will command those spirits to leave in agreement with one another before you.
That's because Father your word says if two of us here on earth agree on anything that they ask of you in heaven, you will give what we ask in agreement to us.
I also ask dear LORD, that you hold and take care of me in these important areas until these things are completed in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ your Son.
Thank you so much LORD!
Amen.
This article is super long, so let’s finish here today.
Bless you dear one.
Remember Jesus loves you and will bring you through all things victoriously no matter what giants you may or not face.
Praying for you.
Dave.

Plus see also this great little PDF (just a few pages) which discusses in depth soul ties and how to deal with them. It does not cover the Rephaim connection yet it gives you good foundation on the subject.
And it also has great testimonies of those set free after ministry into what we've covered today. There is no cost for the PDF.
