Live Blogging: Bishop Long Says He's "Tired of Looking at the Problem, Just Wants to Be Healed"

Live Blogging New Birth Missionary Baptist Church:  Bishop Long says sometimes you have to go all the way back in the life of a person. He says he gets tired of looking at the problem, when he really wants to be healed. He said he's not just talking about marriage. He's talking about things in life. He is going to pronounce curse, to kill every demon in your history. He said God told him to pronounce some blessings over the congregation. He said he will stand as your daddy and Elder Cage will stand as your Mama. He said he will ask God for forgiveness over everything in your life from your childhood. He said the blood is on your life, every area and nothing can touch you. Communion Sunday.

Bishop Long (Ainsworth Communication)

Isaiah 54:17 -- No weapon formed against you shall prosper and every tongue that rises against you in judgment shall be shown to be wrong. This peace, righteousness, security and triumph over the opposition leads to victory over the enemy.   He chuckled and told the congregation to touch someone and say "it's my heritage." He said this is the righteousness and vindication I have received of the Lord. He said once you understand that, "can't nothing take you down." After doing all that you can do, just stand and behold the salvation of the Lord. He shall cover you, Long barked.

He said we're not having church. What they are about to do so is so. He is hawking some sermons on CDs. He says they are the right thing to get for healing. He said some of you have been under a cloud for so long, that you need to hear these sermons. He said some things God doesn't change until you change. He said his trainer Kevin never lets him short-cut. He said the congregation has major kingdom assignment but they must be strong to get it. Could someone please tell me why Bishop Long likes to wear coats and shirts that can be considered tight around the chest and arms?

He said as Abraham and Isaac got older they would call their sons to their beds to speak blessings to them. He said it doesn't matter how they act, call those things into being for them. He said you always have to honor your parents, those wonderful and those not so wonderful. He said your storm is coming to an end. Are those prophetic words for him too? Since he is asking Jamal Parris, Spencer LeGrande and Centino Kemp to repay $900,000 of the settlement money they received as part of the settlement for the gay coercion lawsuit? He's speaking in tongues or some variation (like Juanita Bynum).

He's sealing blessings over the congregation: "For the events of childhood can shape our lives. If in your childhood you did not receive the blessings from your father, I as your father have now proclaimed these blessings. I council every negative word spoken over you. I am sorry for not accepting you just the way God made. I am sorry for not listening to you more attentively. I am sorry for not being as loving and caring for you and your mother as I should have been. Please know that I love you and always wanted to affirm you. I want you to remove the hurt and wounds my actions have caused you. I bless you with physical health for long life to serve your father. I bless you with self-confidence to counteract all negative in your life. I bless with you knowledge so that you may teach others....I bless you with the spirit of purity so you may walk clean and pure before others. I bless with you the sense of family so you will never be lonely. " He said your life has been switched and changed. He said you will not live as you used to live. You are more than a conqueror in Christ.

Elder Gage:  "First as your mother, I cancel every negative word spoken over you. I am sorry from pushing you away whenever you wanted a kiss or hug. I am sorry for not listening, not helping you with your homework and for not taking you shopping with me. I am sorry for not telling you how good a job you did. I am glad that you are my beloved child. You are loved, wanted and affirmed. Bless all your days with righteousness with peace and joy. I bless you with the heart of a good son or daughter. I bless you with great prosperity. I bless you with integrity and a heart of honor. I bless you with an obedient, humble and merciful heart. I bless you with wisdom, discernment... May you be quick to forgive and slow to anger. May your life be a delight to others as they are drawn to God within you."

He told the congregation to mark on their calendars when something starts happening in their lives because change will start coming since he blessed them today. The blessing of your mother and father is so important and so of God, that they 9the congregation) lack nothing now. He said they are going to start discerning things now. He said God told him the people are now going to catch up what He has been holding. Open up the heavens! He said tell somebody "I'm free." He said the congregation shouldn't leave until they benediction is proclaimed because that's when God seals them.

I find it very, very interesting that Bishop Long is proclaiming a blessing on the congregation as their father, since he's about to start squabbling with his "spiritual sons" over money. We will be watching how what he has preached today will manifest itself during the course of the week with Jamal Parris, Spencer LeGrande and Centino Kemp.
