Breaking Free!: Be Loosed to Be Used—Vol Ii

By Latina Teele

If the Son therefore shall make ye free, ye shall be free indeed (John 8:36).

Unfortunately, many of the emancipated people of God live well beneath their freedom and privileges, because they do not understand how to walk in the liberty to which they have been called.

Can you imagine being totally free? Just begin to really imagine all the hurt and bondage gonefree from doubt, fear, and shame. Gods will for his people is to be free. Todays church is filled with people professing that they are free, but the truth of the matter is that they are bound. It is high time to break free from every captivity: to be loosed even from yourself.

Roman 6:22 reveals that, having been set free from sin and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness and everlasting life. This book will lead you into everlasting life and a free life here on earth. It is time to walk in your freedom.

You will discover in this book who or what controls you and enslaves you to the point that you are living in bondage and not freedom in Christ Jesus. Once you identify it, then take action and deal with your pharaoh!

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

To God who is the head of my life. God I thank you for this opportunity to serve you with my whole heart. It took me a long time to realize you will not when it comes to doing your will we must do it wholeheartedly. In my life I found out you must be loose to be used by God. Loosed from people, family, friends and cares of this world and my God sin! I acknowledge you for giving me a second chance.

To Pastor Carmack, thank you for leading me to salvation in March 1990. Thank you for living a holy life before me which taught me holiness. Thank you and Mrs. Carmack who has since gone to be with the Lord. You both have shown me so much kindness and love. Pastor Carmack you are truly a man of God. I know it was hard seeing me take that next step, but you allowed me to move forward into what God has called me unto and as a result of your unselfish love and your desire to see me fulfill God’s will, look what God has done. Thank you for planting me in the kingdom of God. Bless you!

To Minister Beulah Hill, thank you for the home bible studies and the visits at my house that taught and trained me how to love God and to live for Him in my first year of salvation. I really needed it. I was lost and couldn’t find my way. You have been an inspiration to me during the past years. Thank you for believing in me and having so much patience.

To Pastor Ronnie Staton, thank you for teaching me the Word of God like I have never heard it in all my life. You are truly a master teacher of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I pray I will be rooted and grounded in the word like you one day. Thanks for having patience with me when I was so confused. I appreciate everyday that you did not give up on me. Thanks for being that example of pure holiness. Pastor Staton you showed a lot of tough love, but it was for my good. You always told me that you watered me real good. This has enabled me to grow into the Woman of God you saw deep within. There were much chastisement and many spiritual spankings. (Spare the rod, spoil the child). Thank you so much. May God Bless you.

To Co-Pastor Angel Staton, thank you for being a spiritual mother, pastor and a friend. I was able to confide in you many days. Many days of mothering, training and teaching on how to be a submissive wife. The truth hurts sometimes but you always managed to tell me the truth. You give a powerful example of being a holy wife. You are that virtuous woman. Thank you for sowing that in my life and it will be engraved in my heart forever. You are the most patient and joyous person in the Lord. No one ever knows when you are sick or having a bad day because you go on anyhow. How do you do it? It is only through the Lord Jesus Christ. You should be awarded mother, wife and Co-pastor of the year. Thank you for everything.

To Apostle and Elaine Holloway, thank you both for being there for me through the difficult times. Those times I felt like giving up, Apostle you continued to speak life even when I felt like I was dead. You held nothing back, but you always prophesied to my destiny. Thank you and Pastor Elaine for showing so much love and nourishing me in the faith of God’s word. There were times that I would walk in with my spirit bowed down, but you both would embrace me with so much love. Thank you so much.

To Apostle and Pastor Harrell, thank you and your wife for so much encouragement. Sometimes it was just questions like, Have you started on that book? Then I would look like how did you know. Questions like that pushed me into my destiny. I know my CD’s were not the top CDs, but you bragged on them. Those times really lifted my spirit. My God, that day I walked in your church and saw my poster, I was so grateful. Thank you for so many prayers.

To Pastor Renee Pearsall, thank you for adopting me. You have always made me feel like a daughter. I really thank you for being that person to call. Even though it was a few times it seemed like we had been talking for the entire year. You have prayed me through many dark days. Thank you for imparting Holy Ghost Boldness into me!

To Elder Myra Perkins, all I can say about you is you are an undercover weapon against the devil. Thank you for that last push. It was the last you can do it girl in that labor room that bough forth birthing. Thanks!

To Dr. Bridget Newton, thank you so much for your support. I knew you were a guardian angel sent to help lead the way. Even as the angel came to Peter in the book of Acts and smote Him in his side and told Him to arise and follow me. I thank God for using you in this season of my life to birth me into my destiny. Truly like you said, Destiny is Calling! God Bless you always.

Last, but not least, to my husband and children, thank you Mike, you have been the one that caught all the blows from stressful days. Raising our children and obeying God and oh! Running a business has caused many stressful days. I would have to preach and sing and the next day you and the kids have to get preached to again. Thank you for never leaving me in difficult times. Michael, Latilya and Jeremiah I love you and thank you for praying for your mother. Michael you are truly my heart. I couldn’t have done this without your love and support. Thank you and love you so much.

Chapter I

TIED

Can you imagine being tied down for years with no one there to untie you? There are people in this life who are tied, bound and feel like there is no hope of breaking loose. I have good news for you and that is you can be loose to be used. In Luke 19th chapter there was a colt tied where about never a man sat on Him. Jesus told his disciples in the 29th verse "Go into a village over against you in which is called Mount of Olives in Bethany. There you will find a colt tied down, yet no man has sat.

When Jesus calls for you it doesn’t matter what have you tied down, it has to loose you and let you go. They loosed the donkey and released it to the disciples. The disciples threw their garments on the donkey and Jesus sat on it. You see it didn’t matter to Jesus how long the donkey had been tied or bound. All I know is Jesus needed it for a purpose. The purpose was to use it to ride on into Jerusalem. God wants to use you even if you have never been used by Him. It doesn’t matter what your past has been or what society have labeled you. God wants to use you. Jesus could have requested any donkey in that city, but instead he asked for one that had been tied up for life. He asked for one that had no experience in carrying anybody or anything. This is enough to let us know that Jesus can use anybody but we first must be Loosed to be Used.

I can remember almost ten years ago when I preached my first sermon, which was Be loosed to be Used. I felt like I was unqualified and the least one to be chosen. I had a nice little sermon that I had prepared. God woke me early one morning, and said "Latina you must be
