WHAT IS DELIVERANCE?

Deliverance also called exorcism in the mainstream culture, is rescue from spiritual and emotional captivity, hardship, or domination by evil forces. It is the return to stillness, wholeness, and unity of mind, body and spirit. Deliverance is usually used by Christians who pray intensely on behalf of the person needing deliverance and the Holy Spirit and/or angels comes and does the work on behalf of the person.

There is solid scriptural backing for the ministry of deliverance in the Christian world.

- Jesus commanded it.

(Mark 6:7, Mark 16:15-18, Matt. 10:1-8)

-Jesus practiced it.

(Mk. 2:2-20, Matt. 8:28-34, Matt.9:32-33, Matt. 12:22, Lk. 11:14, Matt. 15:22-29, Mk. 7:25-30, Matt. 17:14-18, Mk. 9:17-27, Lk. 9: 37-42, Mk. 1:23-26, Lk. 4:33-35, Mk. 16:9, Lk. 8:2-3, Matt. 8:30-32, Matt. 4:24, Matt. 8:16, Mk. 3:22, Lk. 4:41)

From these many scriptures and the many more unrecorded instances Jn 21:25, it is obvious that Jesus spent a great deal of time ministering deliverance to the possessed. Lk. 4:18 and Acts 10:38

-What He did, He expects us to do also!
(John 14:12)

-The disciples practiced it. (Mk. 9:38, Lk. 10:17)

-Peter practiced it (Acts 5:16)

-Paul practiced it (Acts 16:16-18, Acts 19:12)

-Philip practiced it (Acts 8:7)

With these multitudes of precepts, practices and patterns concerning deliverance in the scriptures any one who gets involved in deliverance ministry today has solid scriptural backing.  How Exorcism Works.
