About the Whole Person Counseling site
In 1991, God gave me the verse in Isaiah 43:19 concerning a ministry that
I would have out here in west Texas on the edge of the great American desert.
At that time, I am sure that I had not even heard of the internet. In the
first part of December 1996, I got a modem for my home computer to use
for email to cut some long distance phone expenses. Then God spoke through
a friend to suggest that I use the internet to offer the books that I had
written. By March 1997, I was learning to write some HTML's.
Since then, various people who knew nothing about the prophetic word
from God to me, began to email me. They would say that the site was like
an oasis in the desert to one who was thirsty. This word has been confirmed
on several occasions.

Hi, Just a note to tell you that your WEB page was so timely. After
exploring it and reaping wonderful and helpful information, I phoned a
friend who was on her way to pray for a very distraught woman. I
told my friend about your counseling information, your book, etc.
She was so
impressed that she called you. ...

I continue to read and re-read the material on you Web site, and they continue
to be a source of strength and blessing for me. . . . The Lord has also
use your writings to free me from the sins and tendencies to sin. My heart
tells me I'm moving from believer to disciple.

When I read some of your articles on the web I felt like my spirit was
going to jump out of my body. I wanted to be left alone to pray, pray,
pray and pray. Your articles on Spiritual warfare and Angels were
superbly written and practically excellent. I then felt reading this book
(How To Destroy The Evil Tree) your book is not a question of may be but
a must.

About the Evil Tree book
I would like to tell you how much I have been helped
by your book The Evil Tree. God has been doing such a cleansing and deliverance
work in me the last few weeks, I have/had an addictive personality, drug
problems for years, nicotine but never really alcohol. God delivered me
from that and then through my complete surrender to Him he has been gradually
showing me the reasons behind my actions. Looking to other people for reassurance,
stuggling to compete and be better than everybody else, lack of self-esteem
and trust and a feeling of not being worthy to be loved. So
many things I had bottled up inside me. I have
been a Christian for five years and only now do I truly feel born-again
- a new creation in Christ. Praise God!
Yesterday I finally remembered things from my
childhood - my father sexually abusing me, and my mother's seeming lack
of concern. I was shown that this was the root cause of all my problems.
The funny thing is, this all started when I was
doing a University course on Psychology and Film Studies. Jung fascinated
me and reinforced my faith and belief in God. Then all these things from
my unconscious started re-emerging. A sort of individuation process, but
with God as my strength and guide (perhaps)? I'm nearly 42.
It was very difficult, but I believe He led me
to your web page and your book. I drew my evil tree, and following your
steps was released from the generational curses and there were plenty I
have to say. The Holy Spirit just kept bringing them to mind and I didn't
really know my grandparents on either side. Now I'm standing on the word,
increasing my faith, trusting in God's love and every day asking for more
of His Holy Spirit - my comforter and friend.
So thank you and I pray that God continues to
bless you in the great work you are doing in His name.
I am totally released now, it's all over and my
faith is increasing day by day.

Having recently started a "renewed" journey in my walk with God, I
have found you book reassuring and a great benefit in helping me to overcome
my greatest fear - repeating the past.

I was delighted to receive the actual book copy so I could send to
my daughter in Dallas. I told her all about you and your book, and
again, the timing was perfect. She had been going through some tremendous
spiritual oppression to the point that she was exhausted. Her dad
was killed in an airplane crash when she was seven years old, and the Holy
Spirit revealed to us that she needed to forgive her father for "leaving"
her. She also felt rejection and fears that we believe stemmed from
the loss of her father. We prayed through her forgiveness of her
father, and as a result of your Evil Tree diagram and explanation, we both
learned a lot about why we have had some yuck in our lives. Praise
God that his timing is so perfect...And thank you for being so giving on
your web site of all the information readily available. It was so
helpful and will continue to be as we pray in our personal lives, but also
as we minister to others. May God richly bless you for your work
and your obedience.

I have read your book and it has been of significant help to me. The
day I downloaded the manuscript, I suffered from severe chest pains. If
felt that it was not serious, but I felt terrible. Several times, I thought
about going home to bed, but my job was demanding and I "tuffed" it out.
That evening, Juli and I began to a study of your book, but only after
we prayed and I bound the spirit(s) that afflicted me. Less than 20-30
minutes into our study, I realized that I no longer felt the pain or the
physical discomforts that had plagued me. Over the next week I began to
feel much better physically and emotionally. I do not feel that my depression
is over--but I fell that I have a better understanding of my situation.

I can barely see through my tears of joy and relief to write this not of
gratitude to you. "The Evil Tree" is the most practical and extraordinary
example of preaching and teaching that I have experienced in my 56 years,
and the Spirit led me to it when I was at the end of my rope. What an amazing
blessing!
My father died at age 53 of complication of alcoholism. I inherited
his addictive personality. While I could never answer "yes" to enough of
the AA questions to qualify as an alcoholic, I was addicted to the stuff
until this July, when I read--at one sitting--"How To Destroy The Evil
Tree."
There have been times in the past when I have abstained form alcohol
for three or four month through sheer will power. I always gave in. Now
I am not abstaining any longer. There's not a drop of will power involved.
As far as I'm concerned, the Lord has worked a miracle in me. I submitted
my life totally to him, and I no longer have a desire for alcohol.
Back in April, I had asked my your prayer partner, Greg, to pray about
alcohol's grip on me. Of course, I was praying about it too. But it too
the way that you present the Word in your wonderful writing to finally
make me realize that the victory had already been won for me on the Cross
and that I simply had been believing Satan's lie. When I did as your suggested
and read Romans 6 aloud in the first person, the Spirit took over in my
life, and I walked out of the open prison door.
I began on that day to keep the kind of journal you suggest and to memorize
and meditate on the Word. It's a whole new life . . . moving form believer
to disciple.

I just completed reading the evil tree. There was information about generational
curse that I'd not read before. Filling out the diagram was particularly
helpful. I will probably recommend other people to it as well. Your depth
of knowledge and insight is evident in your web site. I can also see that
you have a spiritual depth and stability that not all ministries can claim.

Dear Dr. Frasure, I greatly appreciate your book on the web. The
Lord has been teaching a dear friend of my in Christ about some of these
principals. We have both been believers a long time and have seen
many battles but no sustained victory. The iniquities that
are present in each of us has been the focus of what my friend has been
taught by the Lord. We are now praying and asking the Lord the reveal
and remove these in our lives and our families. We are following the principals
you have laid down in your book. It seems to be working not only
with us but with our families as well. When we experience a situation
instead of reacting to the person we are commiting it to God and praying
about the root that has caused. It has been a blessing to find this
on your site. ....By the way my husband is down stairs reading your
book. I can't think of any book he has ever read. I took the
liberty of sending your site to several friends. We are all tired
of living a life in Christ with little victory.
Bless you, Terry S.
I have not finished the books, but what I have read so
far is a blessing, and I will not send them back (just kidding). The books
will bless anyone reading them. [ref. to How To Destroy The Evil Tree
and Bringing Every Thought Captive].

I obtained one of your books on the "Evil Tree." The ladies from
a friends Church had a Ladies retreat and we used some of your material.
I had some material on the Evil Tree. But we drew a blank tree
and used yours as an example and looked at the different issues we were
dealing with and formed our own tree.
We prayed to break the various strongholds. There was much deliverance.
A pastor was there that was delivered of fear and the stronghold
of fear. Most of the ladies had not read or heard of the
material.
