What We Believe
“If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.”
Psalms 91:9-12 NIV
In Freedom. RESTORATION.
A New Life in Christ.
What is Deliverance?
Biblical Perspective:
In the Bible, deliverance refers to being rescued or freed from evil and oppression. Examples include God delivering the Israelites from slavery in Egypt and David calling upon God to deliver him from his enemies.
Spiritual Warfare:
Deliverance is often seen as a part of spiritual warfare, where individuals are helped to overcome negative influences and behaviors through prayer, faith, and the power of the Holy Spirit.
Overcoming Bondage:
Deliverance aims to break free from spiritual bondage, which can manifest as negative behaviors, feelings, and experiences.
What is the difference between curses and demons?
Curses:
Curses are often seen as a form of spiritual judgment or negative influence that can affect an individual's life.
Demons:
Demons are evil spirits that can influence or oppress individuals, leading to negative behaviors and experiences.
Interconnectedness:
While different, curses and demons can be interconnected, with curses potentially opening doors for demonic influence.
Can a Christian have a demon?
While some believe that Christians can be possessed by demons, others argue that Christians are sealed with the Holy Spirit and cannot be possessed.
However, it's widely accepted that Christians can be oppressed or influenced by evil spirits, leading to negative behaviors and experiences.
The focus is on identifying and overcoming these influences through deliverance.
What's the difference between a character flaw and demonic oppression?
Character Flaws:
These are personal weaknesses or shortcomings that are part of an individual's personality.
Demonic Oppression:
This refers to the influence or control of evil spirits, leading to behaviors and experiences that are beyond an individual's control.
Distinguishing the Two:
While both can lead to negative behaviors, demonic oppression often involves a deeper level of influence and control than a character flaw.
How can you know if you have a demon?
Signs of Demonic Influence:

Why do people manifest during deliverance?
Manifestations:
During deliverance, some individuals may experience physical or emotional reactions, such as shaking, crying, or speaking in tongues.
Purpose of Manifestations:
These manifestations can be seen as a sign of the presence and power of the Holy Spirit, as well as a way for the individual to be freed from demonic influence.
