Why This Message
Because of the increasing reluctance to teach on sin,
repentance and spiritual darkness, most churches do not see
the need for deliverance
Due to New Age Teachings, philosophies, etc. most people are
being taught that they can deliver themselves without God or
the Holy Spirit’s intervention
Because of fanaticism and improper teachings, there are some
misconceptions and beliefs regarding the “process of
deliverance”
There is a need for the believer to understand that God wants
us delivered, free, whole, and blessed

will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and
ever. Amen.
Romans 6:17 - But God be thanked that though you were slaves of sin, yet
you obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were
delivered.
Psalms 40:2 - He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry
clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
Luke 8:35: Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus,
and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the
feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

What Does Deliverance Mean?
To draw to one's self, to rescue, to deliver
The purpose of deliverance is for God to rescue His people unto Himself
to a place of protection, safety, and well being
“To deliver out of the hands of..., to escape." This meaning illustrates God's
rescue of His people from the dominion of Satan and the world system.
Deliverance from sin, rescue from trials, and escape from the influence of a
world in the control of the evil one come only through Christ, the Son of
God
Deliverance: (Hebrew word is Peleytah = pel-ay-taw )- to set free

Deliverance
People often use the term "deliverance" as if it were
synonymous with "the casting out of demons." Indeed,
deliverance may entail casting out demons, but the
term, as used in Scripture, has a much broader
meaning and deeper significance.
Exodus 18:8-11
The meaning of "deliverance" adds the idea not only
of rescue but also of "drawing someone to one's self."
This concept shows that God's motive behind
deliverance is His fervent desire to fellowship with His
people upon whom He has set His unfathomable love.
Colossians 1:13

another
Darkness to light
From a doomed state to a blessed state
From evil (and evil people) to goodness, truth, mercy, and Love
From bondage to freedom
Deliverance is achieved through transmittal or transmission & receiving
The spoken Word = “He spoke the Word and healed them”

Laying on of hands (Mark 16:18; Luke 4:40; Acts 5:12; Matt 8:8)
Receiving of the gospel message/Word of God (Matt 8:8)

Basic Areas Requiring Deliverance
Sin – Leading to Salvation – the power & verdict of sin over one’s life
Ephesians 2:5: even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with
Christ (by grace you have been saved),
People may need to know and need assistance in achieving victory over sin in their life
Healing – Physical, Emotional & Spiritual
“Heal the broken heart” (Luke 4:18)
“Heal the sick” (Mark 16:18)
Dealing with Strongholds - Strongholds are incorrect & negative thinking
patterns that people develop over time, and are often set up and nurtured
by demons through lies and deception.

Areas of Deliverance
Removing Legal Rights - Legal rights are things that give demons permission
to enter and remain in our lives. Before demons can often be cast out, it is
important to address and remove these legal rights (i.e. sin, rebellion,
unforgiveness).
Grants one freedom from oppression, sin, generational curses, past failures, etc.
Casting Out Demons – Requires knowledge of your spiritual authority and
faith in that authority (Luke 10:19)
Mark 16:17 - And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall
they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
Requires a spiritually disciplined lifestyle
Mark 9:28,29: And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately,
Why could not we cast him out? 29 And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by
nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

Deliverance – What is Required?
Reading/Hearing & Receiving God’s Word (Romans 10:17)
Faith & Trust in the Spoken Word/Promise of God (Matt 9:35; Matt 4:23)
Will thou be made whole? A decision must be made to receive God’s Word in
faith and desire to be released from one’s affliction/circumstance/oppression
What Hinders Thee? Repenting, Rejecting, and Renouncing sins, attitudes, &
oppressive spirits that blocks you from receiving your deliverance
“Go and Sin No more, so that nothing worse happens to you.” – Maintain your
deliverance through a redeemed and transformed lifestyle (John 5:14)

God Has Called You to Set the
Captives Free
Luke 4:18,19 - 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
2nd Timothy 2:24:26
And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to
teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure
will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who
are taken captive by him at his will.
