God is passionate about you fulfilling your purpose! In fact, there are books in Heaven that record your destiny and purpose. Their pages describe the very reason you were placed on the Earth.
And yet, there is a war against your destiny being fulfilled. Your archenemy, the devil, knows that as you occupy your divine assignment, by default, the powers of darkness are demolished. Heaven comes to Earth as God's people fulfill their Kingdom callings!
In Unlocking Destinies from the Courts of Heaven, Robert Henderson offers a prophetic prayer strategy that shows you how to dissolve the delays and hindrances to your destiny being fulfilled.
What does the enemy use most often to delay destinies from being fulfilled? Curses. By using the Courts of Heaven strategy, you will: Recognize the signs of curses operating in your life. Identify the origins of curses that war against your destiny. Revoke the rights of demonic principalities from operating in your life. Learn the secrets to cleansing your bloodline from generational curses. Discover how to legally unlock divine destiny over your life and even, your nation. Bring your appeals before the Courtroom of Heaven!
I've read both of Henderson's books about the Courts of Heaven and am still quite confused about their value. Perhaps I'm befuddled because I have many years of background in prayer ministry and, in reading them, I've been looking for something to augment 'my toolbox' of ministry skills and knowledge. (I have no problem with knowledge because Peter wrote: '...add to your faith goodness, and to your goodness, knowledge...' 2 Peter 1:5) However from my viewpoint, this teaching complicates what is generally simple. And while I have no doubt of its validity, I sense that in many instances it's being used in the wrong way.
On a purely practical and pragmatic level, I would love to see some transcripts of a case brought before the Court of Heaven because I don't get how it is different to ordinary everyday prayer ministry which is not conducted in a courtroom setting.
I suspect for believers who have no background in other ways of repentance and justice-bringing, this would be an invaluable resource - but for people like me, trained in a different way, it simply seems to make matters more complex than they need be. So I'd love to see actual court cases spelled out so that I can clarify what is said.
This critique aside, however, the book contains some superb thoughts on different topics. I loved the insights into Elisha's healing of the town of Jericho. Some brilliant stuff.
The editors seem to have nodded off during a couple of chapters before walking up again. Every so often the book becomes hard to understand because a wrong word is used or a sentence is so awkwardly constructed it takes real effort to get what is being said.
Robert Henderson is the expert on this subject. His writing style is very clear and concise and he makes what could be a challenging subject very accessible.
Found so many scriptural answers to things about which I was confused, unclear, questioned… just had not connected spiritual dots together.
IMPORTANT things that have kept me “stuck” for decades! I can tell when I have entered a “new room in the Kingdom.” I feel a bit overwhelmed cuz my physical brain struggles to wrap around it, while my spirit is rejoicing saying, “YES!!! THIS is it! Just be patient, ask HolySpirit to unpack it for you, walk you through it, guide your thoughts and steps. THIS has been a locked door into a place that FEELS ‘foreign’ because it has been locked down - NOT because you have not BEEN here.”
Hard to describe and put into words, but this book is an answer to 2yrs of prayer!
It is a “sequel,” of sorts to “Operating in the Courts of Heaven.” If you do not have that one yet, you’ll want to get it with this one because the actual PROCESS is not REPEATED here.
This smaller book focuses specifically on what curses may be blocking your way you have not recognized, from where they may be rooted, how to recognize curses may be a root problem - particularly “iniquities” and blood line sources, etc.
I am sometimes annoyed to purchase books from the same author only to discover SAME material in a book from them I already and have read. THIS is not that. It is more like a “vein” of information touched on but not drilled down as deeply in the first one.
I have to be honest. I have a LOT of his books but haven’t made time to READ them. It is one of those things your spirit is saying, “you NEED this information,” but the enemy throws out those snares and detours so your flesh says, ‘nah. I am good. I can do that later.’”… and I did not jump in where HolySpirit has been pointing. ::sigh:: I hate when I do that!
Having a family background w/much “fertile” soil for such things and even though I have addressed different aspects of them in a variety of ways through the years, this book brought some things to light scripturally I have not seen before.
I am rereading this and then will jump into “Operating in the Courts of Heaven” to begin PROCESSING what HolySpirit shows me and speaks to me about.
If you have “tried everything” but still find yourself “circling the same drains” and issues, maybe HolySpirit will highlight some things for you as well. 🙏 Blessings
All of Robert Henderson's points are backed up by scripture and personal experiences. I can personally say I believe these books he has written from revelation given him to by God are so important that every Christian regardless of denomination should study them, check them out in light of the Scriptures and Gods Spirit and learn how to go into the Courts of Heaven. People spend years studying to be lawyers, Assistant District Attorneys (or Crown Prosecutors in Australia) spend months of preparation before they try a case, they study, get all the facts, ignore TV & the trappings of this world as they are so focused on this case, I've realised I spend everyday I'll and in pain, hours seeing Specialists etc. I've spent thousands of hours studying to get my Bachelor of Nursing and post grads BUT now I can't work due to sickness, yet how much time have I spent preparing my case and going before the Judge the Creator of the Universe to plead my case? The Holy Spirit was given to us for many reasons & I believe one to direct us how to pray & show us when we seek God just what iniquity in our bloodline or sin we are committing is robbing us of our calling our destiny. By God's grace, I plan to study His Word, read and reread these books, listen to podcasts and watch YouTube messages by Robert Henderson, not because of the man but the revelation God has given him, as I know my life depends on it and the life of the children God has promised me that may never get to live if I don't get my deliverance and healing.
Don't just read this book but believe God will speak to you through it, read it with expectancy and I highly recommend you watch Sid Roth's Its Supernatural episode on the author. Shalom.
Book 1 and book 2 both are very important and I recommend reading applying and living both books. This book teaches you more about the courts of Heaven I especially like the last chapter last two chapters were very good. This book will open up your eyes to have an understanding of the course of heaven and how it is the right and something every Christian should be doing.
This book brought more clarity to the first book. I was especially excited by the final chapters on the prophetic and intercession and travailing. I felt like lots of puzzle pieces were finally put together for me after a long tough season. Ready to unlock my destiny.
Having heard Robert Henderson speak at a weekend seminar, many of my reservations about this book were answered. But I wonder if that means the book didn't communicate well or if I culturally misread it.
Robert Henderson Shares personal experiences on his own struggles with spiritual warfare. He talks about how we can overcome our own struggles as well . The book was eye opening to prayer in the spirit.
The book has great explanations, with scriptures to back. The author gives you the tools to come into the throne room of God and break the generational curses from your bloodline and your nations to unlock destinies. Good teachings.
I am not convinced that there are "courts" in Heaven. Only God Almighty is qualified to be our Heavenly Judge & Jesus, will be our Heavenly Advocate who says "Father this one is under my blood! And there sins are forgiven!" It is only one "Court" & only one Judge & one Advocate!
