Possessed by Purity

We are all possessed! You're possessed, I'm possessed, your momma is possessed, your daddy is possessed, everyone of us is possessed.

Dictionary.com defines the word possessed as:

1. To have as property; own.
2. To have as a quality, characteristic, or other attribute: possessed great tact.
3. To acquire mastery of or have knowledge of: possess valuable data.
To gain or exert influence or control over; dominate: Fury possessed me.
To control or maintain (one's nature) in a particular condition: I possessed my
temper despite the insult.

4. To cause to own, hold, or master something, such as property or knowledge.
5. To cause to be influenced or controlled, as by an idea or emotion.

We are all possessed by either the flesh or the Father. Either our flesh has property and ownership, it gains or exerts influence or control over our lives and dominates us, or the Father does.

If we are possessed (owned) by the flesh we will fulfill or walk according to the lust of our flesh (Gal 5:16).

If we are possessed (owned) by the Father we will fulfill or walk according to the spirit (Gal 5:16)

It's our choice to be owned by the flesh or the father. Look to Psalm 51:10 for a prayer to begin the shift from flesh to father. (It's not a bad idea to pray the whole thing over your life either.)

To maintain this ownership of the Father pray Psalm 139:23 over your life. Pray these prayers and watch your life become possessed by purity!
