Pressure Applied to Remove Pain

From the heart of Dr. Kristi:

One day in November during my prayer time, I felt prompted to go sit in my massage chair. I thought it strange in the middle of praying but I was obedient.

Here is what the Lord spoke to me- as the massager moved over a knot in my shoulder He stated- “people have knots in their lives. (Old wounds, fears, worries, unforgiveness, guilt, perfectionism, on and on- you get the point) They try to avoid dealing with the knot or attempt to pray it away. It causes them pain but they live with it. I want to heal it at the source. But they must allow me to touch it. I need to press on it to release the tension and pain it causes. Sometimes pressing on a knot can be painful and uncomfortable but the removal of the knot is well worth it.”

The Lord then reminded me that after a massage, a person is to drink lots of water to flush out the toxins released during the pressure on the knots. After we allow the Lord to touch our knot/pain, we need the residue from it to be released from our lives. This is where the Spirit comes in and washes away the negative aspects of it.

So, give the Lord permission to go to places of pain in your life and then allow the Spirit to wash away all residue. He is ready, able, and willing!
