The Deliverance aspect of Integrated Healing Prayer Ministry,
The Ministry where the integration of Exorcism, Deliverance, Healing and Inner-healing operate to bring healing to the Spirit, Soul and Body.
Jesus came to this world not only to save us from hell and death, but also to rescue us from evil on this earth.
Galatians 1:4
Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:
Deliverance is the Will of God for today –
" deliverance from this present evil world".
The word deliver, according to Merriam-Webster, means to set free.
The word rescue is a synonym, and it means "to free from confinement, danger, or evil". Thus, the word deliverance, as used in Christian ministry, is the act of setting someone free from something or someone or some being that is causing harm.
Jesus came to this world not only to save us from hell and death, but also to rescue us from evil on this earth. (Luke 11:4) And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us, And lead us not into temptation
But Deliver us from evil.
All throughout the Old Testament historical writings of all the battles that Israel had to fight, the word deliver is used over and over again - either the Lord was delivering Israel from an enemy, or He was delivering an enemy into Israel's hand to slay or overcome it, or He was delivering Israel into the hands of the enemy because of their sin and rebelliousness.
Deliverance is clearly a battle--it is a war against Satan, his demons, evil and his kingdom.
We are the warriors and Jesus is the leader of our army.
Much of the Old Testament is a metaphor for the deliverance process.
There are almost 600 references to the word deliver or a derivative of that word in the Bible.
If you don't think the deliverance ministry is for today, think again.
David's Psalms are full of references of deliverance from enemies.
Who is our enemy today?
Satan, Demons, Evil, Unclean Spirits, and Humans doing and yielding to the will of evil.
The Psalms also make many mentions of the Lord delivering our souls.
The soul and the body are probably the biggest areas that deliverance ministers work in.
The soul is defined as the heart, the mind, the will, the intellect and the emotions. The Body our physical body of course.
Here are a few selected scriptures with some commentaries.
Genesis 45:7
And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
This scripture is Joseph talking to his brothers when there was famine in Egypt.
The point here is that deliverance is about saving lives yours.
If you don't recognize your need for deliverance and subsequently submit to ministry to obtain it, your very life during your time on this earth is in jeopardy.
This is not referring to just the end of your life, but Deliverance affects every facet of your life that is of any importance: your marriage, your children, your prosperity, your money, your health and -the list goes on and on.
There is something that is very important that you should understand Submitting to prayers of deliverance, including the breaking of curses, can make a difference as to how you spend your time on this earth, and perhaps even how much time you have on this earth.
Exodus 18:8-10
And Moses told his father in law all that the LORD had done unto Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel's sake, and all the travail that had come upon them by the way, and how the LORD delivered them. And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which the LORD had done to Israel, whom he had delivered out of the hand of the Egyptians. And Jethro said, Blessed be the LORD, who hath delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh, who hath delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.
Deliverance is nothing to hide or be ashamed off, we are to tell people of God's great power and His wonderous works. Deliverance from any type of Sin, Oppression, sickness or disease is a miracle and we are to rejoice and bless His name for his goodness and mercy that he has extended toward us.
Samuel 7:3
And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do return unto the LORD with all your hearts, then put away the strange gods and Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts unto the LORD, and serve him only: and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.
The Philistines are a metaphor for demons.
Notice that the Lord says that IF we return to Him with all our hearts, forsake our other gods, prepare our hearts and serve the Lord only, and THEN He will deliver us.
Chronicles 12:7
And when the LORD saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves; therefore I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance; and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
The key word in this scripture is humbled. Deliverance is a humbling experience, and you must be humble in order to receive it. The word humble means "not proud or haughty: not arrogant or assertive; reflecting, expressing, or offered in a spirit of deference or submission". Jesus was humble.
Ezra 9:12-14
Now therefore give not your daughters unto their sons, neither take their daughters unto your sons, nor seek their peace or their wealth for ever: that ye may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children for ever. And after all that is come upon us for our evil deeds, and for our great trespass, seeing that thou our God hast punished us less than our iniquities deserve, and hast given us such deliverance as this; Should we again break thy commandments, and join in affinity with the people of these abominations? wouldest not thou be angry with us till thou hadst consumed us, so that there should be no remnant nor escaping?
Ezra warned the children of Israel NOT to fall back into sin again after God delivered them out of captivity when they did not deserve it.
These scriptures warn Christians who have received deliverance not to fall back into sin again.
After Jesus delivered certain people of demons, He occasionally said, "Go, and sin no more" due to the fact that apparently, the demon entered the person due to his own sin.
Psalm 18 - various verses
I will love thee, O LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies. The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid. The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me. In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears. .... He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me. (Demons) They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my stay. He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
The following verses show why the Lord delighted in him, and thus delivered him. The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me. For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
For all his judgments were before me, and I did not put away his statutes from me. I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity. Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.... He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms. (You see, God teaches us to war against the enemy)... I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn again till they were consumed. I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen under my feet. For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me. Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me. They cried, but there was none to save them: even unto the LORD, but he answered them not. Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets. (Notice in these previous scriptures that we are to pursue our enemy and utterly destroy them - that is what we do in the deliverance ministry.)... He delivereth me from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up above those that rise up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and sing praises unto thy name. Great deliverance giveth he to his king (we are now kings and priests in Jesus - Rev. 1:6); and sheweth mercy to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.
Psalm 69:14
Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
You need deliverance!
Psalm 91
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night (aliens, incubus, succubus, nightmares, etc.); nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways (we always ask the Lord to send His angels to work for us when we minister). They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
Proverbs 11:9
An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.
The key word here is knowledge. Paul says in 2 Corinthians 2:11 that we should not be ignorant of Satan's devices. Hosea 4:6 says that God's people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Put all this together and you quickly realize how important knowledge about deliverance is.
Proverbs 28:26
He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.
Luke 4:17-19
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
Jesus came "to preach deliverance to the captives", and then He gave US the authority to tread on serpents and scorpions (Luke 10:19), a metaphor for demons.
Put these scriptures together with these scriptures: And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. (Matthew 7:26-28)
In other words, if you know Jesus' will-in this case, to preach, receive and minister deliverance-and do not do His will, you will be likened to a foolish person, and great will be your fall.
Meditate on this.
Galatians 1:4
Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:
Deliverance is the Will of God for today –
" deliverance from this present evil world".
Is the Will of God!
Jesus came to deliver us from evil today,
not when we die.
The Great Commission
Matthew 28:19-20 "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always even unto the end of the world."
"Jesus"
Mark 16: 15-20
"Go ye, into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved, but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils, they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents
and if they drink any deadly thing it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover."
"Jesus"
So then, after the Lord had spoken unto them, He was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached everywhere,
The Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen






Is the Will of God!
Jesus came to deliver us from evil today,
not when we die.

Brothers and Sisters,
Do not allow satan to trick you with the word "Exorcist" God told me to use the
Word Exorcist. 25 years ago I was Demon possessed and I experienced a Paul damacus road experience with God.
I was rebellious, self-seeking, self-serving, educated and rich with a very wealthy husband that fell dead while jogging. There is much more to the story.
When God called and chose me taught me how to Love 'Himself" and other more than I Loved myself. I asked "Jesus" to send me the worst of the worst just like I used to be to "help" when the world sees the word Exorcist and they have a problem they understand that here is someone that can deal with their
own personal ugly, bad, hard to understand issue.
That someone anointed by God is me, anointed with the Power and the Anointing to "War and Win on behalf of another"
A ministry that is a part of the greatest ministry in the World.
An intercessor empowered to "Deliver us" from the "Hidden works of darkness"
An intercessor empowered to "Deliver us" from the unfruitful works of unrighteousness.
An intercessor empowered to "Deliver us" from the Kingdom of Satan and Deliver us into "His" marvelous light.
An intercessor empowered to bring and impart to the Body of Christ the Exorcism, Deliverance, Healing and Inner-healing Ministry of Jesus.

"The Father wanted satan defeated by man - One made in His image. Jesus, who would shed His blood to redeem mankind, emptied Himself of His rights as God and took upon Himself the limitations of man. Satan was defeated by a man - the Son of Man, who was rightly related to God. Now, as people receive the work of Christ on the cross for salvation, they become grafted into that victory. Jesus, defeated the devil with His sinless life, defeated him in His death by paying for our sins with His blood, and again, in the resurrection, rising triumphant with the keys of death and hell.

In redeeming man, Jesus, retrieved what man had given away. From the throne of triumph He declared, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore" In other words: I got it all back. Now go use it and reclaim mankind. In this passage Jesus fulfills the promise He made to the disciples when He said, " I will give you the keys of the kingdom of Heaven." The original plan was never aborted; it was fully realized once and for all in the resurrection and ascension of Jesus. We were then to be completely restored to His plan of ruling as a people made in His image. And as such we would learn how to enforce the victory obtained at Calvary:" The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet." We are born to rule - rule creation, over darkness - to plunder hell and establish the rule of Jesus wherever we go by preaching the gospel of the Kingdom.
Kingdom means: King's domain. In the original purpose of God, mankind ruled over creation. Now that sin has entered the world, creation has been infected by darkness, namely: disease, sickness, afflicting spirits, poverty, natural disasters, demonic influence, etc. Our rule is still over creation, but now it is focused on exposing and undoing the works of the devil. We are to give what we have received to reach that end. If I truly receive power from an encounter with God of power, I am equipped to give it away. The invasion of God into impossible situations comes through a people who have received power from on-high to release it into the circumstances of life.

The gospel of salvation is to touch the whole man: spirit, soul, and body. John G. Lake called this a Triune Salvation. A study on the word evil confirms the intended reach of His redemption. That word is found in Matthew 6:13 (KJV), " Deliver us from evil." The word evil represents the entire curse of sin upon man. Poneros, the Greek word evil, came from the word ponos, meaning pain. And that word came from the root word penes, meaning poor. Look at it: evil-sin, pain-sickness, and poor-poverty. Jesus destroyed the power of sin, sickness, and poverty through His redemptive work on the cross. In Adam and Eve's commission to subdue the earth, they were without sickness, poverty, and sin. Now that we are restored to His original purpose, should we expect anything less? After all, this is called the better covenant. We were given the keys to the kingdom - which in part is the authority to trample over all the powers of hell.

God is revealing purpose, identity and His Kingdom.
Jesus preached the same message in His day. In fact, the first message that Jesus taught after He was baptized and anointed was "Repent, the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand" (Matthew 4:17). Matthew 4:17 (King James Version) 17From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. And in Luke 16:16 Luke 16:16 (King James Version) 16The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
Jesus declared, "Change your thinking. The law and the prophets were until John; since that time the Kingdom of
God is preached, and every man presses into it."
Thinking the Kingdom of God Jesus announced a new order. He declared a new focus. No longer was man to strive to attain to the law and the prophets. The new objective was to press into the Kingdom of God. Pressing into the Kingdom, however, goes beyond being born again. Just as someone can be a citizen of a country and fail to understand or walk in the fullness of citizenship, so too can they be a believer without a revelation of the dominion, authority and government of the Kingdom.
