Deliverance
At Love of Christ, our desire is to walk alongside people as they seek freedom from spiritual oppression, healing from past hurts, and a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. Our aim is to help each person grow in faith, discover the freedom found in Him, and build a strong foundation in God's Word.
As part of this journey, we believe deliverance is a powerful way to begin your walk with Jesus and experience freedom from the power of darkness. We must deal with the unclean spirits within us, just as Jesus demonstrated after His 40-day fast and throughout His ministry.
Whether you’ve been following Him for a few weeks or many years, it’s never too late to seek deliverance and experience the freedom He offers.
What Is Deliverance?
Deliverance is the ministry of helping people find freedom from spiritual oppression through the power and authority of Jesus Christ. Throughout His ministry, Jesus healed the sick, cast out demons, set the oppressed free and called people to repentance and new life in Him. He calls us his diciples to do the same.
Matthew 4:23-24 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. 24 Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them.
Luke 4: 18-19
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me,
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are oppressed;
19 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.”
Luke 9:1–2 (KJV) "Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick."
Luke 10:17 (KJV) Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.”
Mark 16: 17-18 "And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues... if you lay hands on the sick they shall recover."
John 14:12 (KJV) "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father."
At Love of Christ Deliverance Sessions Include:
Prayer, repentance, renunciation of sin and casting out demons in the name of Jesus Christ. This is done through power of the Holy Spirit that has been gifted to us (His Disciples). We also address areas such as unforgiveness, rejection, spiritual strongholds, past involvement in the occult, trauma, generational sin/curses.
Four Common Ways Unclean Spirits May Gain Access
1. Personal Sin
These are the sins we willingly commit, even when we know it's wrong to do or when we don't realise its wrong..
2. Trauma and Abuse
Painful experiences that were forced upon us such as; abuse, accidents or other traumatic events. These experiences are not your fault, and you are not to blame for what has been done to you. Our ministry seeks to support healing, restoration and freedom through Jesus Christ.
3. Generational Sin
Patterns of sin and spiritual practices within family lines and ancestors - sometimes referred to as intergenerational sin.
4. Involvement in the Occult, New age and False Religions
Participation in practices such as witchcraft, divination, mediumship, tarot readings or attempts to contact spirits.
The goal of a deliverance session is to cleanse you of unclean spirits through the power and authority of the Holy Spirit, commanding them to leave in the name of Jesus Christ. Through repentance, renunciation and turning away from sin, we seek to close any access points that may have allowed spiritual oppression, so that you can experience healing, peace, joy and freedom, walk more freely with God, and grow in your relationship with Jesus.
What to Expect
All our prayer, deliverance and discipleship sessions are offered free of charge. We do encourage donations they are gratefully appreciated and help us continue serving others in Jesus’ name.
1. Introductory Session
Your journey begins with an online introductory meeting where we can get to know you, listen to your story and understand what has brought you to us.
We'll explain how our ministry works, answer your questions and spend time praying together, inviting the Holy Spirit to guide our time according to God's will.
2. Foundations for Freedom
Freedom in Christ is a Journey - not a formula or a quick fix — it begins with surrendering our lives to Jesus Christ. In this stage, we'll explore areas of your life where you may need prayer, repentance, forgiveness, healing or spiritual freedom.
Together, we'll work through repentance, renunciation and forgiveness, and address areas such as unforgiveness, occult involvement, generational influences and other spiritual concerns as appropriate. As we go we will cast out the demons that were let in through each aspect.
If you have not yet been born again, we'll help you understand the Gospel and guide you to be born into Gods Kingdom. It's an important step of your faith - as your journey begins now.
We also encourage believers to seek the fullness of the Holy Spirit and grow in the gifts He gives, including speaking in tongues, healing the sick and casting out demons.
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."
— 1 John 1:9
3. Ongoing Discipleship and Ministry
Once we are born again, our journey of spiritual growth begins. Like a seed planted in Christ, we are called to grow towards spiritual maturity, becoming more like Jesus and learning to be led by the Holy Spirit.
Everyone has a part to play in the Body of Christ. We are all called to be disciples of Jesus and to serve as saints, each with a purpose in God's Kingdom.
We'll encourage you to build a strong foundation in Christ through prayer, reading the Bible, fellowship with other born-again believers and growing in obedience to God's Word. We encourage you to begin reading at the Gospel of John as you develop your understanding of Jesus.
Further sessions may be helpful as you continue to grow in Christ and pursue spiritual freedom.
