Inner Work: Uprooting and Planting
Inner work is the idea mentioned in the scripture Jeremiah 1:10. The lies of the enemy must be uprooted, and the truth of God's word must be planted.
This is the process of taking inventory of the fruit (thoughts, feelings, actions) in your life and exploring the roots (relational pathways or connections) of the tree (soul) producing the fruit.
Roots are formed from gravity pressing the seed and causing it to split into roots that poke and grip the ground (this ground is your heart). As soon as the tiny root tip penetrates the soil, the tree is fixed in the ground and can absorb water and mineral nutrients.
Imagine what your heart has absorbed over time because of the pressure (toxic environments/cares of the world) that work to press the seed (lies of the enemy) in the ground of your heart. If this happens, when we encounter relational harm (trauma), how much more powerful and life-giving when we encounter the truth and the love of the Father!
Here is the Strategy for Uprooting and Planting:
As you encounter roots of death and destruction, pull them up, confront them, and declare they will no longer receive nourishment (your or others' thoughts/words/actions).
Ask the Holy Spirit to help, strengthen, and encourage you to lay aside the weight (the gravity/pressure/cares of this world) causing ensnarement (Hebrews 12:1).
We must know that the Father has delivered healing through Jesus - a major truth to be planted. Be patient with yourself during this process because this is the real surgery that allows healing to spring forth.
