DR STRANGE

Have you watched the movie 'Dr Strange'? Well, I did some time ago and I learnt so many things from this movie. I had a very powerful revelation about the time loop. There was a part where Dr Strange had the enemy trapped in an endless time loop. He had the gift of controlling time, reversing and fast forwarding time. Even though he was slain many times, he came back again to relive that moment. It came to a point where the devil was weary of reliving this moment, of being stuck in this time loop. So the devil had no choice but to accede to Dr Strange's request.

This thought kept me thinking and I asked the Lord what was it that the devil was most afraid of. Which particular time in history? He showed me that it was the time when the devil thought he defeated Jesus by having the people crucify Jesus only to realise that was the greatest mistake. In three days' time when Jesus resurrected, the devil would suffer his greatest defeat ever in history. I thought so too. The devil must have hated to relive this scene again because it enforced his defeat.

But it was only during a Sunday church service that the Lord showed me the physical act of keeping the devil in a time loop was whenever we take holy communion. Because when we come to the Lord's supper, we remember his death and resurrection. We also enforce His victory on earth through the finished work. The devil hates it when we take communion because it reminds him of his defeat every time we partake. Hence he will do anything to stop us from taking communion. That is why whenever I start taking communion, there will be attacks on my body. This shouldn't be surprising. The key is to continue to persevere in taking communion because we already have the victory in Christ. 

Beyond a certain point the enemy would be wearied and totally worn out. He would be begging to let him go and release him from the time loop like what happened in the movie. As much as he often used this technique to keep us stuck in our past, like reliving the pain of that moment, he was very afraid of being caught in a time loop himself. So all the more we should partake the communion and proclaim the Lord's victory over him. Sooner or later he has to cease his attacks on us because he has limited ammo and resources. He knows his end is coming. 

Besides this powerful revelation, I also have nuggets which I learnt from the movie and I hope these will bless you. 
  • Things in the spirit are more real than you think
  • Battles are won in the spirit realm first before the natural realm
  • What you see in the natural isn't all the reality
  • The mind is more powerful than we think, it can command the cells in your body to heal itself when medical science says it's impossible
  • God has already built in the solution to an increasingly dark world and the answer is in His people
  • He has hidden gifts and talents in us to combat the evil one, just waiting for us to discover and use those gifts
  • While the enemy tries to trap us in a time loop, keeping us stuck in the past, reliving that same moment again and again, he himself is scared of being trapped in a time loop too. 
  • It is not about us. It's always about something greater, bigger than us. Don't be egoistic and proud. It's about Jesus.
  • In order to operate in the spiritual realm, you have to forget everything you learnt in the past. You got to surrender your previous beliefs and ways of doing things. Be open to the new ways of God for He is always doing a new thing.
  • Sometimes in order to do His will, certain natural laws have to be broken or violated. Like time and space continuum. That is called a miracle.
  • What the world sees as the end, God sees as a new beginning
  • The bad thing which happened to you is not necessarily bad. God works all things out for our good.
  • Sometimes God has to allow that bad thing to happen or else you will never come to Him and never discover your true destiny on your own accord. The storm is the answer, bringing you to where you need to be.
  • Just as the relics are there to help you in the fight, so are the spiritual weapons like holy communion, praying in tongues, fasting, anointing oil, declaring the word of God, prophetic acts etc
  • The enemy will always try to cast doubts on the goodness of God but don't believe his lies. Seek to know God intimately so you will be able to defunct what are the lies and you won't be deceived 
  • We will always have the victory in the end because Christ has won it for us

Things in the spirit realm has no time. Hence people sometimes are given a peek into the future which we call a prophetic word. That is reality in God's eyes. God is timeless. To Him, this event has already happened. He has seen it happen. It just hasn't happened in this time line yet. But it is only a matter of time that it will necessarily happen.
