What Is Deliverance - Docx2
when a man is in Christ, old things are passed away" refers to a spiritual transformation, a new
creation, as described in 2 Corinthians 5:17. It signifies a change in identity and life, moving away
from a former way of living and embracing a new life in Christ.
New Creation:
The verse emphasizes that believers in Christ are "a new creation". This doesn't just mean a change
in actions but a fundamental renewal of one's nature. It's a spiritual rebirth, as seen in the Bible's
concept of "born again" or the theological term "regeneration".
The phrase "old things are passed away" indicates a break from the past, specifically the past life of
sin and separation from God. The "old" refers to the former way of living, characterized by sin and
spiritual death.
New Life:
The verse also emphasizes that a new life has come. This new life is marked by righteousness,
holiness, and a relationship with God. It's a present reality and a foretaste of the ultimate renewal of
all creation.
God's Grace:
This transformation is not something people achieve on their own but is a gift from God through faith
in Christ. It's a reality that is only possible because of God's grace.

ESV Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee
from you.

you.
1Pe 5:6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He
may exalt you in due time,
1Pe 5:7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

1Pe
Jas 2:14 What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no
deeds? Can such faith save him?
Jas 2:15 Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food.
Jas 2:16 If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well
fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it?
Jas 2:17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is
dead.
Jas 2:18 But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds." Show me your
faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.
Jas 2:19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe
that--and shudder.
Jas 2:20 You foolish man, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is
useless ?
Jas 2:21 Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous for what he did
when he offered his son Isaac on the altar?
Jas 2:22 You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his
faith was made complete by what he did.
Jas 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, "Abraham believed God, and
it was credited to him as righteousness," and he was called God's friend.
Jas 2:24 You see that a person is justified by what he does and not by faith
alone.
Jas 2:25 In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered
righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them
off in a different direction?
Jas 2:26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.

comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done
everything, to stand.

with the breastplate of righteousness in place,

wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
1Co 2:5 so that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the
power of God.
1Co 2:6 But, we speak wisdom among those who are perfect; yet not the
wisdom of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, that come to nothing.
1Co 2:7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, which God has hidden,
predetermining it before the world for our glory;
1Co 2:8 which none of the rulers of this world knew (for if they had known,
they would not have crucified the Lord of glory).
1Co 2:9 But as it is written, "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard," nor has it
entered into the heart of man, "the things which God has prepared for those
who love Him."
1Co 2:10 But God has revealed them to us by His Spirit; for the Spirit searches
all things, yea, the deep things of God.
1Co 2:11 For who among men knows the things of a man except the spirit of
man within him? So also no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of
God.

God, so that we might know the things that are freely given to us by God.
1Co 2:13 These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom
teaches, but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with
spiritual.
1Co 2:14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God,
for they are foolishness to him; neither can he know them, because they are
spiritually discerned.

What is deliverance
Obadiah 17-21
17 But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of
Jacob shall possess their possessions.
What is Deliverance: Deliverance: (Hebrew word is Peleytah or Peletah = pel-ay-taw )- to set free: to take and
hand over to or leave for another: to assist in giving birth: to aid in the birth of : to give birth to: to cause oneself
to produce as if by giving birth: to send something aimed or guided to an intended target or destination:
to come through with:
COME THROUGH WITH: to give results that are promised, expected, or desired, the act of delivering, freeing, or
liberating someone or something: the state of being set-free.
Luke 4:18 “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 broken hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering
of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised.”
The Bible says, in 2nd Corinthians 10:4-5 “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty
through God to the pulling down of stronghold; casting down imaginations, and every high thing that
exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience
of Christ.” Our weapons are not carnal; this simply means that humanistic attempts are futile in spiritual
warfare. We cannot defeat the devil with bombs and guns, but the weapons of the word of God will defeat
the devil every time. The weapons are mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.
To be delivered one must change the way they think Proverbs 23:7 “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he.”
Once you change the way you think you do not accept that something is unchangeable because you now believe
that God can and will make a difference. You now posses the key element which is FAITH.
Ø FAITH: Hebrews 11:1 says “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen”. I
like this definition of Faith.
.
” Isaiah 26:3 “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in the”.
Trust is a basis of faith, reliance, and hope. Trust is learning how to lean and depend upon Jesus, trust in him
and he will provide. That is what Job meant when he said though He slay me yet will I trust Him, If you trust Him
He will, not maybe, but he will provide. Staying delivered is trusting in God and keeping your mind on Him.
Never give up, never yield to the temptations of the pride of life, whether it is thinking of yourself as being of
some great importance or worthless, never yield to this weapons of spiritual warfare.
“Be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind”.
Deliverance centers on the destruction of the yoke of the enemy. A yoke is anything that hinders or
sets you back. Whatever sets you back from moving forward in your life is a yoke. God’s will is that
you move forward and attain divine goals set for your life. When the contrary happens, there is a
bondage hanging above your life.
Deliverance is the breaking of satanic chain that has made fruitfulness or prosperity
impossible for people.
There is an invisible chain which has acted as a stubborn barrier between you and your success. A lot
of people have tried their possible best for prosperity but nothing has been experienced that can be
termed real prosperity.
Deliverance is being set free from compulsive evil habits and actions.
There are some people who knowingly or unknowingly often misbehave and cause problems
repeatedly in their own lives. If you fall into this group, you need to undergo deliverance.
Deliverance involves in being completely set free from past occult bondage.
A good number of so-called children of God are yet to experience total deliverance from the occult.
This kind of deliverance is needed for those who have gone very far with the devil.
Deliverance includes being set free from sickness that defies medical diagnosis.
If you have tried every possibilities medically speaking because of sickness and efforts towards
getting the best of medical help has yielded no result, you need serious deliverance. Jesus is the
greatest doctor I’ve ever seen, He can and will heal you.
Deliverance means being set free from restlessness, mental confusion and other malignant
problems.
As a child of God, you must not struggle with restlessness, mind blankness and memory failure. If you
have experienced such conditions, you need deliverance. Don’t wait another day.
Deliverance is being set free from inexplicable family break ups (divorce) and recurrent
squabbles in the family.
You were raised by a single parent; and you also end up being a single parent; you have being
divorced or going through divorce, you have many children with different fathers, there are demonic
activities in your home. When your marriage is suffering attacks from the spirit called “Home
Destroyer”. When your spouse is avoiding his/her responsibilities in marriage/home, you need serious
deliverance. Don’t wait another day, seek and get deliverance today.
Deliverance is being set free from the binding power of an evil trend of recurrent family
troubles and tragedy.
When you count two or three people in your family that have ended up in prison, or suffered from drug
addiction, or untimely death, or unexplainable sickness, or rebellious children, or poverty flow in your
bloodline, or failed at the edge of breakthrough. You need serious deliverance, run without delay and
seek deliverance.
You need to cry unto God for deliverance today. If you have spent your life journey in the wilderness,
you need to run to God as fast as your feet can carry you. If you are contemplating quitting this battle
of life (suicide), you must go for deliverance as soon as possible.
If you have concluded that you have had more than a fair share of life’s problems, you need to visit
the deliverance clinic as soon as possible.
If bad luck has continued to trail your life in spite of the fact that you are a child of God, you need
deliverance. If you have discovered that the same kind of bondage that is found in the life of any
member of your immediate and extended family is visibly present in your life; don’t wait another day,
