*Difficulties Can Be A Sign Of Something New*
We are in a time of uncertainty and people need healing on several levels—physical, emotional, relational and spiritual. With the pandemic, superstorms and violence, the spirit of fear is trying to dominate.
The Lord revealed several keys about how to find the root of the attacks that people are experiencing.
A few years ago, I was suffering from chronic illnesses that almost took my life. It took time for me to get healed!
Sometimes healing is instant and many times it is a process!
*Getting The New Strategy*
There are a lot of healing methods that might not be completely biblical, and some might have a mixture of psychology, New Age and ways of the world.
I live my life through a biblical foundation and the Word of Faith. This helps me stay healed.
I am a firm believer in the finished work of the cross and have also done years of deliverance ministry.
The word teaches that you get prayer and then stand on the Word of God for your healing.
The finished work of the cross teaches that what was done by Jesus on the cross is all we need.
*New Revelation For Healing Breakthrough*
The Lord showed me that you can live in the finished work of the cross and stand on the word of God, but if you have symptoms of being sick or if you are being attacked, then it is okay to pursue inner healing and deliverance.
I encourage people to get healed, get back on the frontlines and not live in the “spiritual deliverance room.”
I am totally healed now and have never felt better. But I had to contend for my healing and battle through belief systems that stood in the way.
*My Healing Testimony*
Over 20 years ago I was diagnosed with Huntington’s, an incurable genetic disease. It killed many of my family members including my mom, her siblings, my sister and brother. It is a tragic, rare disease that has no remission and no known cure.
The Lord gave me a healing strategy and I hit it from many different angles—generational deliverance and utilizing the Word of Faith to stay healed.
I got healed of the early symptoms at age 42 and now I’m 63. I have been placed in a UCLA study because I am still not showing any symptoms.
The doctors told me I was an anomaly, which is a medical term for a walking miracle. They said, “We don’t know what you’re doing, but just keep doing it!”
*Multiple Chemical Sensitivity And Chronic Illness*
Several years ago, I was so sick and the doctors didn't know what was wrong. I had a strange autoimmune disorder. No matter how hard I prayed, I never got better. I had an acute case of multiple chemical sensitivity.
It was so bad that I couldn't even stay in my house. Then I discovered several strategies that allowed me to get healed!
I used a hybrid of several healing methods to discover and heal the spiritual root!
*Season Of New Healing Revelation*
*When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.* Isaiah 59:19 NKJV
The Lord wants to take us to new levels in healing!
*What Are Cisterns?*
*My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water.* Jeremiah 2:13 NIV
A cistern is a tank for storing water. It can supply taps or be part of a toilet.
The two sins of Jeremiah 2:13 are forsaking God and building our own systems.
We need to have the water of the Holy Spirit and the ability to flush away our grievances!
Some healing methods are “man made cisterns” and based on worldly wisdom and not the Lord, such as heavy psychology-based inner healing.
Some of these can be redeemed, but some are very dangerous.
*Removing The Ways Of The World*
*What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us.* 1 Corinthians 2:12 NIV
We can go to doctors, but be careful if they are into New Age practices such as using pendulums, energy healing, etc.
Ask the Lord for healing first!
You can get emotional healing, but choose your methods wisely and get counsel from others.
Pray to cut off any connections to false or bad healing practices.
*Key To Healing*
The key to healing is to get through:
- disappointments
- hope deferred
- unloving spirits—self-hatred, self-rejection and low self-esteem
- a broken heart
- the spirit of fear
Believe it or not, these are the roots that are causing sickness, disconnecting us from the Lord and bringing doubts!
We can break through this!
Blessings,

A Season of Harvest, Multiplication and Fruitfulness
April 19, 2024 • Doug Addison
In this special excerpt, Tony Kim shares some insight on the end-times harvest and the year of the open door. Below are some notes from our Partners-only Monthly Mentoring Session. These sessions have been recorded and you can access them by becoming a Partner today! Find out more at https://dougaddison.com/timeoff/ Tony started out the session by saying that we are in the new Hebrew calendar year 5784, which is the year of the open door based on the meaning of the 4th letter of the Hebrew alphabet (alef-bet). This is a season for the great harvest. The 4th miracle of Jesus is Him feeding the 5000, so the 4th letter of the Hebrew number system also represents multiplication. The Church in the Book of Acts experienced addition first, and then after chapter 5 they went into multiplication. So Tony believes we're moving from addition into multiplication. He went on to say that he believes—this year—we’re going to see God multiply the works of our hands and the seeds we've sown. Multiplication will come through thanksgiving. Tony also believes we're stepping into a season of God's fullness. It's a “fullness of time” time … in terms of what's happening within God's timetable. In that kind of season, thanksgiving and gratitude are key. One of the sins that kept the Israelites out of the Promised Land was their grumbling. Let's shift from grumbling into gratitude! When Jesus received the fish and the bread, He looked up and broke it. Many people feel broken in this season, but remember that after Jesus gave thanks, there was multiplication. Remember the 4th miracle of Jesus and be encouraged. In Genesis chapter 2, there is a mention that out of Eden flowed 4 rivers. Eden means “his desire.” So out of His desire, there are 4 rivers. The 1st river was called Pishon and that means “increase.” The 2ndd river, Gihon, means “to burst forth” or “break through.” Tigris, the 3rd river, means “rapid or “acceleration.” Euphrates, the 4th river, means “fruitfulness.” So, get ready because the places where you thought you were breaking, Tony believes you are going to bear much fruit! You're going from barrenness to fruitfulness … because of your faithfulness! Perhaps you thought that no one has seen your faithfulness. Tony mentioned that he felt like the Lord is saying, “Get ready because we are in the 4th river of Euphrates, and you are going to step into it by His grace … by His Spirit … not by might nor by power, but by His Spirit … into a great season of fruitfulness!” Tony mentioned that this word personally encouraged him, and he has seen this happen in his own life. Their church attendance has quadrupled! And if it’s happened for him (the multiplication), it will happen for you too! InLight Connection thanks Tony Kim for sharing his heart with us. P.S.

The Bride of Christ and Holy Matrimony
April 12, 2024 • Doug Addison
In this special excerpt, Bonnie Jones shares her insight about the Bride of Christ, intimacy with the Lord and going behind the veil. Below are some notes from our Partners-only Monthly Mentoring Session. These sessions have been recorded, and you can access them by becoming a Partner today! Find out more at https://dougaddison.com/timeoff/. Bonnie started out by saying the time has come for the Bride of Christ to enter into the holiness of God. This is where the Bride is seated behind the veil. Behind the veil, the enemy is not going to touch you and it’s where the Lord will teach His Bride. There’s no struggle or striving because you’re in the presence of the Lord. Bonnie mentioned that a lot of times, the Lord teaches her in the night season. During the day people are busy, and at night He takes you to this place which is behind the veil. It’s here that your mind is given over to Him. The bridal veil represents the purity of the bride. There’s a lot of carnality in the Church worldwide, and some people just attend because it’s the right thing to do. But the Bride needs to press in. Bonnie talked about Isaac and Rebecca and about how the first thing Rebecca did when she got off the camel was put a veil on her face. She knew she was Isaac’s bride, but he wouldn’t be able to see her until he removed the veil. In the Jewish tradition, the bride covers her face completely until the end of the wedding ceremony. When the bride and groom are legally married, the groom lifts the veil as a way of finalizing their marriage. Two years ago, the Lord told Bonnie that He’s coming to lift the veil off His Bride. That’s why she started her ministry, Daughters of the Dawn. The Lord is coming to lift the veil off the face of His Bride (His beloved who has been faithful to Him, preparing herself for His return). He’s been faithful to continuously intercede for her while she prepares herself in holiness, faithfulness, truth and love. Bonnie said she thinks the Lord has a real expectation about this. He’s as excited for us as we are for Him. The Lord wants that face-to-face encounter with His beloved as He lifts the veil. There’s a dimension we have not yet attained, and Bonnie believes like Moses met with God face to face and the glory rested upon him, that is what the Lord is wanting us to do. Bonnie said that when she goes to bed at night, there’s such anticipation in her and an expectation of a visitation from the Lord … For Him to show her something in a dream or give her a “knowing” or an understanding. The Lord is going to breathe new life into His Bride. Bonnie said we’re going to see new life and it’s going to be something we haven’t seen before. Bonnie told the Partners how her husband, Bob Jones, said there were seven years when he walked in a “Samuel anointing.” He said every word he spoke came to pass right then, and he saw many people get saved and healed. Bonnie mentioned again that that’s why we need to get rid of all our fleshly stuff … Because when the Lord speaks, He needs a vessel to work through … and then we can release His word in power. So, we really need to have clean vessels … pure, only unto the Lord. Bonnie closed by saying that the Lord is unveiling the Bride to take her by the hand into holy matrimony. InLight Connection thanks Bonnie Jones for sharing her heart with us! P.S. Thank you to all of those who partner with InLight Connection and give on a regular basis.

Knowing Holy Spirit as a Person
April 5, 2024 • Doug Addison
In this special excerpt, Sean Smith shares some practical ways we can begin to view Holy Spirit as a Person and not an impersonal force. Below are some notes from our Partners-only Monthly Mentoring Session. These sessions have been recorded and you can access them by becoming a Partner today! Find out more at https://dougaddison.com/timeoff/. Sean started off by saying that the first imperative for intimacy with God is that you have to have a revelation of God as your Father. Secondly, you must recognize the Holy Spirit as a Person. Holy Spirit is not “junior God.” Sometimes people treat Holy Spirit like He's a junior partner in the Trinity. Jesus told His disciples that it was good for Him to go away because He would send another helper. The Greek word used there means “another of the same kind.” Sean mentioned how he thinks about what Peter would have thought . . . that no one could replace Jesus because He’d done all sorts of miracles. But Jesus knew His mission was to bear our sins upon Himself, to pay the price to release the Kingdom of God, etc … Sean said Jesus was telling them, “You’re ready for this and as real as I’ve been to you, that’s how real Holy Spirit wants to be.” So, is your relationship with Holy Spirit as real as the disciples walking with Jesus? To feel that, bring Holy Spirit into your situations and get His perspective, wisdom and narrative. Sean then mentioned how when Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone, he did not say, “the iPhone.” He only said, “iPhone,” making it more personal. In the same way, we can drop the “the” and say, “Holy Spirit.” This can give us a better sense of intimacy. Holy Spirit is not chill bumps. He's not goosebumps. He's not warm flashes. He's not even power alone, those things are impersonal. Holy Spirit is a Person! He has feelings and He can be grieved. He's not moody but He has moods. He’s in the mood to heal. He’s in the mood to restore! He’s in the mood to convict … Sean said, “I'm not saying He's moody, I'm saying He has moods.” Holy Spirit talks and He has a will! It's all proved in Scripture that He is a Person! InLight Connection thanks Sean Smith for sharing his heart with us!
