And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. - Matthew 16:19 (KJV).

The keys to the Kingdom are left in our hands.  The hands of people who don't know how to use them or don't know what they are for.

Instead of worrying about what to bind in heaven, let's think about it this way: whatever is not acceptable in Heaven should not be acceptable on Earth, such as sickness, disease, poverty, condemnation and all the other things that Jesus died to give us.  

Remember what is prayed in the prayer that Jesus taught His disciples?  On Earth as it is in Heaven (Luke 11:2).  

So whatever is not acceptable in Heaven is not acceptable here on Earth.  These are the things we are to bind here on Earth because Jesus has give us the authority to do so.

Have you received Jesus as your Lord and Saviour?  Do you believe Jesus died to pay the price for your sin?  That He was raised from the dead?  Then just pray aloud, "Lord Jesus, I repent of all my sins.  Come into my heart and be my Lord and Saviour."  If you believed in your heart and confessed with your mouth, you are Born-again.  Let us know if you prayed this prayer.
