1.Ministering Deliverance for Leaders
To advance the Kingdom, we must overcome an inferior one, that currently has dominion over people's lives. This doesn't happen by our will power or hope, but by the power of the Holy Spirit, as we depend on Him and grow in God. To be free we need to remove the armour, or belief system, from our lives that have bound us up, so the demon or strongman can be easily cast out.
2.Foundations for Freedom
Explore the different doors of entry into a person's life, from generational curses to inner vows. As you open your heart, and take ownership for your sin, rather than blame others, and then repent and release forgiveness, healing and freedom will flow into our lives.
3.Bondages of the Heart
Ungodly soul ties, inner vows and word curses are three entry points into our lives, where we can open ourselves to bitterness, jealousy, anger, complaining, addictions, etc, which then become strongholds in our lives, that the enemy can come in and take hold of. As we recognise these traits in our lives, we can take ownership of them, renouncing and releasing them from our lives in Jesus Name.
4.Legal Right of Entry
Explains three main legal grounds, upon which demons can gain access to your life: generational curses; the occult; and sexual sin.
5.The Two Kingdoms
Humans are very unique - not only living in the natural world, but can also connect to the spiritual world. Jesus came to tell us about the Kingdom of God, which is full of light, peace and joy; but there is another Kingdom which we are all born into - the Kingdom of Darkness - which rules by tormenting people, and using sin to control them.
6.Traumatic Experiences
The effect of traumatic experiences can be overcome and healed through prayer; by exchanging old memory pictures with scripture memorisation; and by inviting the Holy Spirit and the truth into the situation - for total restoration in Jesus name!
7.Called to be a Minister of the Holy Spirit
We are called to pray for people, and to be a minister of the Spirit of God. Come spiritually prepared, and believe that God is with you - guide people's attention to the Lord, not the prayer! There will be conflict before, during, and after ministry, and the battles will be within you. Believe God is with you, take risks, and reach out in prayer.
8.Ministry of Jesus
Jesus made it clear we would have difficulties and problems, but He has overcome all evil with good - on the Cross, and through His ministry to us. As we face the reality that we are hurting and suffering, and allow the Lord to help us repent and forgive, He will always respond. God is committed to our character and growth, not our comfort.
