Do I need Inner Healing and Deliverance?

When Christ died on the cross, he said “It is finished” (John 19:30). What did he mean? He paid the price in full for our sins, through His blood, body, death, and resurrection. He became the curse of the law for us. A Mosaic law perfectly made by God, that man showed time and time again in the bible that he could not uphold due to sin, was made right through a perfect lamb (Jesus). Jesus became the curse of the law and he died for our sins. When we accept Christ as our Lord and savior as the son of the living God, and invite Him to be Lord of our life, our spirit is “reborn.” It is our spirit that is made new. Getting baptized is symbolic of this. These spiritual acts are the beginning stages of our personal relationship and walk with Christ. However, it doesn’t end there.

Inviting Jesus into your heart as your Lord and savior, getting baptized, reading your bible, prayer, and attending church are very important parts of the Christian walk. There’s something that happens though for some believers after they invite the Holy Spirit in. There’s something that happens when they come out of the baptism water, and are told that they are “raised to walk in the fullness of life.” Often times, believers will begin to recognize the “spiritual resistance” around them. Interference in reading the bible, praise and worship, or conversations about God may occur through brain fog, confusion, mental pains, sudden difficulty keeping their eyes open, or maybe what even feels like a blocked mind. Individuals may find themselves in repeated cycles of abuse (sexual, physical, spiritual), disfunction, financial challenges, relationship division, and loss (job, home, child custody etc.). Despite ones best efforts, a believer may find themselves in cycles of sin and addiction that they just can’t seem to break free of (gambling, alcoholism, drug addiction, sexual immorality). Or, perhaps despite prayer and fasting, there are still medical challenges and certain ungodly struggles that “just don’t seem to go away.” This is where Inner Healing & Deliverance comes in.

The Holy Spirit is the greater spirit. Authority is given to believers once the Holy Spirit enters them. However, Holy Spirit filled believers must go through Inner Healing and Deliverance in order to truly walk freely in the fullness of life. This is because at the moment of Holy Spirit entry, our spirit is reborn. Our spirit is then made perfect and new. It is the spirit that is the temple and dwelling place of the Lord in our being. However, there are two other parts of our being: our body (the flesh) and the soul (mind, will, thoughts, emotions, heart). When the Holy Spirit enters, it doesn’t enter our body or soul. This is why the salvation prayer and baptism doesn’t immediately rid us of every ailment, ungodly thought pattern, habit we want to break, or life problem. The enemy cannot dwell in, nor could they ever reside in our spirit. The enemy attacks our soul and our body, which houses the parts of our temple that need sanctification.

Inner Healing and Deliverance allows individuals to begin the process of healing, identifying, “breaking off,” and pulling out at the “root,” what has been trying to hide in and operate in their lives, lineages, bloodlines, for however many generations. In order to truly “resist the devil” and actually see him flee from you, one must stay in a lifestyle of repentance, renouncing, and mindfully not entering into ungodly agreements with the enemy. One must daily surrender to Christ what isn’t of the Lord in their life, and be transformed in the renewal of their mind. One must want a genuine relationship with their Heavenly Father and desire to grow in Godly obedience. Deliverance and healing is a process! This ministry is here to help you on that walk.
