wHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE MAN OR WOMAN OF GOD WHO IS TRYING TO FAITHFULLY SERVE GOD BECOMES CONFRONTED WITH THE DEVASTATION OF A FAILED MARRIAGE? Brothers and sisters within the Body of Christ have been wounded, broken and left hopeless as a result of a failed marriage. With the rise in christian separation and divorce it is needful for the church to recognize the seriousness of this issue. It is time for the church to provide healing and restore hope to those who have been made to feel like damaged goods because their marriages failed. We debate biblically whether divorce is considered a sin, while we watch the our brothers and sisters dry up and loose their annointing and joy. The truth of the matter is that while God hates divorce, he loves his children. God wants His children to be healed and whole. In order to be healed the child of God must get over your hurts,fears, other people's attitudes, lack of forgiveness,feelings of rejection and a host of other emotions and issues. You must move on with your life. God will turn your pain into power, you tears into joy, your defeat into victory...

Thank you for adding both context and content to the previous message. Would not want a hurting soul to read and get the wrong message. And yes the adulterous woman was an actual event.

I almost let this go by without remark. However there are too many bound christians to not respond. The reason I don't debate doctrine on this issue is that few people who offer their opinion and quote scripture take the tme to "Study to show themselves approved unto God...." The Word of God is life and can not be taken lightly. The topic of divorce is mentioned three times in the bible. Moses gave laws for divorce in the Old Testament. Jesus addressed divorce when he was being tested and challenged about the law in the New Testament when man was still living under the old covenant. Paul addressed divorce in his epistle to the church at Corith. He addressed the New Testament church that was now living under the new covenant. He had to address problems such as what to do when the christian was married to a worshiper of the Greek Gods; He addressed a church comprised of Jews and Gentiles. Therefore I agree that the words of man don't heal. But the annointed teachings as they are inspired by the Holy Ghost brings liberty. Otherwise there would be no need for preachers and teachers. I agree that marriage was created and ordained by God. God allowed divorce during the days of Moses because of the hardness of man's hearts(Stated by Jesus Christ) God does hate divorce it was not part of God's original plan.However God loves his children. Yes the sin of Adam and Eve resulted in the fall of mankind. Yes because of man's ability to make choices, divorce now exists. Yes divorce can be a result of sin in an individual's life .HOWEVER TO STATE THAT DIVORCE IS SIN and just stop sinning is a response based upon man's interpretation and not revelation. And it only partially addresses the issue of divorce. You can not tell the woman of God or the man of God whose spouse left them to "Go and Sin No More." Are we going to tell the woman who left her husband because she was being abused to "Go and SIn No More". The message of Get Over It does not fight marriage. Neither is it the words of man. It is a message of hope for those who are separated or divorced. It does not justify sin neither does it label people sinners who were victims or a failed marriage. There are many reasons why people have married; not all of them because God joined them together. Marriage is honorable and the bed undefiled. But for those who have become stuck; for those who have given up hope and are failing to become who God ordained you to be; the message is still Get Over It. You have to be able to move on with your lives. You must allow God to heal you. You must ignore your negative emotions and turn a deaf ear to those who would judge you because of your circumstances. God is your source and your strength.
BE HEALED; BE WHOLE; BE FREE!
Contrary to the above comment, I don't justify sin. I have been commissioned by God to speak words of life. Lives have been changed. People have been restored. Not because of me but because God has healed, delivered and set free through the message of Get Over It; the book and the conferences.
By the way the woman caught in adultry was not a parable. It was an actual event. She was brought before Jesus but the man was allowed to go free. Jesus was being tested on how he would handle this point of law.

Not Doctrine but Truth. God Hates Divorce.

We stand boldly and arrogantly in the face of God and violate his command and break covenant. Then we expect carte blanc acceptance of or at the very least tolerance of our sin. NOT!!!!

Let God be true and every man a LIAR! God is not mocked. He has instituted the covenant of marriage and he said let no man put asunder what he has joined. The covenant of marriage is a mystery knitted together by God in the Spirit. We don’t understand the depth of that knitting and is why God said no to divorce. He understood the magnitude of trying to sever what can’t be severed by a piece of paper. He understood the devastation, soul death, depth of the pain, destruction and the impact on the many lives caused by man taking upon himself to undo what the Sovereign God the Creator has done. And in the church we have a string of shattered lives, broken hearts and poor examples of the love relationship between Christ and the Church.

Marriages are not failed. We are just in blatant sin. No sugar coat.

Solution: The parable of the adulteress.

There was a woman caught in adultery surrounded by her accusers who wanted to stone her to death. Many threats, accusations and insults were hurled at her. Thank God Jesus was in the midst. Jesus writes in the sand and says “he who is without sin cast the first stone”. All slowly walked away and only He and she were left standing.

Now in these very words is the solution to man’s ills caused by divorce. GO AND SIN NO MORE. There is something in the words of Jesus that always brings salvation, healing and deliverance. What is that? When you have found what it is you will have found the solution and the Pearl of Great Price. It is not obvious, it is given only be revelation.

It is and will always be the answer to the healing of the soul and not GET OVER IT. One is never healed from the words of man.
