Curse Breaking:
Scripture: Galatians 3:13
Explanation: "Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, 'Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree.'" In deliverance ministry, curse breaking refers to the act of breaking free from the negative effects of curses or generational sins through the power of Christ's sacrifice.
Repentance:
Scripture: Acts 3:19
Explanation: "Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord." Repentance is a crucial aspect of deliverance ministry. It involves acknowledging and turning away from sinful behaviors, paving the way for God's forgiveness and healing.
Spiritual Authority:
Scripture: Luke 10:19
Explanation: "Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you." Spiritual authority is the power and dominion granted to believers by Jesus Christ over demonic forces in deliverance ministry.
Inner Healing:
Scripture: Psalm 147:3
Explanation: "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Inner healing addresses emotional and psychological wounds, bringing wholeness and restoration through God's love and grace.
Generational Curse:
Scripture: Exodus 20:5
Explanation: "You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me." Generational curses refer to negative consequences that affect descendants due to the sins or patterns of their ancestors. Deliverance ministry seeks to break these generational curses through repentance and the application of Christ's redemptive work.
Stronghold:
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10:4
Explanation: "The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds." Strongholds are deeply rooted patterns of thought or behavior influenced by demonic forces. In deliverance ministry, believers use spiritual weapons to tear down these strongholds and set captives free.
Binding & Loosing:
Scripture: Matthew 18:18
Explanation: "Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." Binding refers to restricting the power of demonic forces and loosing means replacing spiritual bondage, through prayer and spiritual authority, with blessings.
Spiritual Warfare:
Scripture: Ephesians 6:12
Explanation: "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." Spiritual warfare involves engaging in battles against the forces of darkness through prayer, intercession, and reliance on God's power.
Demon:
Scripture: Mark 1:34
Explanation: "And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. And he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him." Demons are evil spirits that seek to oppress and influence human beings negatively. Deliverance ministry addresses the expulsion of these demons through spiritual authority in the name of Jesus.
Deliverance:
Scripture: Psalm 34:17
Explanation: "The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles." Deliverance refers to being set free from spiritual bondage, oppression, and demonic influences through God's intervention and power.
Intercession:
Scripture: 1 Timothy 2:1
Explanation: "I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession, and thanksgiving be made for all people." Intercession is the act of praying on behalf of others, which is essential in deliverance ministry to seek God's freedom and protection for individuals in need.
Manifestation:
Scripture: Mark 9:25
Explanation: "When Jesus saw that a crowd was running to the scene, he rebuked the impure spirit. 'You deaf and mute spirit,' he said, 'I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.'" Demonic manifestation refers to visible or audible signs of the presence and activity of evil spirits. Deliverance ministry involves confronting these manifestations and driving out the demonic presence.
Discernment:
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12:10
Explanation: "To another, the working of miracles, to another, prophecy, to another, discerning of spirits, to another, different kinds of tongues, to another, and the interpretation of tongues." Discernment is a spiritual gift that allows believers to distinguish between the influences of the Holy Spirit and evil spirits during deliverance ministry.
Anointing:
Scripture: Exodus 40:9
Explanation: "Then you shall take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it, and consecrate it and all its furniture, so that it may become holy.” Anointing refers to the empowering and equipping of believers with the Holy Spirit to carry out God's work.
Deliverance Ministry:
Scripture: Luke 4:18-19
Explanation: "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor." Deliverance ministry is modeled by Jesus, who came to bring freedom and deliverance to those who are bound by spiritual and physical oppression.
