Brief Summary: Oppression is something that the devil does best. The devils love to oppress with sickness and disease and place burdens on you more than you are able to bare. And he does to keep you from believing in all your riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Oppression does not come from God. Even though He has all the power and authority and can oppress you into His will, it is something God will never do. God wants you to line your will up with His because it is your will and not because you have been forced by the devil. God does not want you to run to Him because you are afraid of the devil. God wants you to take the Power you have in Jesus name and resist the devil, and make him flee. Then come to Him because all He has done for you, and because you believe in Him.

Are you being oppressed by some one in power and authority? Know now that it is not God doing it. He will not force your will. He gave His only begotten Son so that He would not have to oppress you to do what is right. It will be something your will, will want, in the best way.
