In the realm of spiritual warfare, deliverance and exorcism play a crucial role in breaking free from the chains of darkness and gaining victory over spiritual oppression. Deliverance involves the process of being set free from demonic influences and bondages, while exorcism specifically deals with casting out demons from individuals who are possessed. These practices are essential for believers to experience freedom and walk in the fullness of their spiritual authority.

Through deliverance and exorcism, individuals can experience inner healing, spiritual renewal, and restoration. It is important to understand that spiritual warfare is a real battle that requires spiritual weapons and strategies. By engaging in these practices, believers can effectively combat the forces of evil, overcome spiritual attacks, and live victorious lives. Deliverance and exorcism are not only beneficial for individuals but also for communities and regions that may be under spiritual oppression.

Spiritual warfare is very important to the local church. The Bible tells us that Satan is the prince of the power of the air. That means that we are trying to dislocate Satan from the atmosphere of our city. But not just our city but also our the regions in which we occupy and have churches. 

In Joshua 6:9, we see spiritual warfare going before the ark, which represents the Glory of the Lord in our church services.

Joshua 6:9

New King James Version

The armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets, and the rear guard came after the ark, while the priests continued blowing the trumpets.

Spiritual warfare is a guard to the presence of God in our service. Without this spiritual warfare, we will not properly be able to host and carry the ark. The glory Glory will be attacked and through spiritual warfare, we protect the Glory, and through spiritual warfare, we protect it. By the power of spiritual warfare, we guard our churches from outside invaders like a house. Through the power of spiritual warfare, we break through the spiritual resistance over our region that is in the air. These Satanic agents that are over our cities are broken through and understand that we have been given authority over them as the local church. The church is also an embassy in a region that brings heaven into the region. One of the reasons this is foreign to most is because we look at the church as a hospital and not as an embassy. 

The Church as An Embassy 

As I was writing this book, the Holy Spirit began to talk to me about the purpose of the church in the context of spiritual warfare. The church is meant to be an embassy, not just a hospital. Many church leaders have taught us with good intentions that the church is a hospital. This is bad theology because hospital churches produce weak Christians who are constantly going to church to get medicated. 

Many times, in a hospital peoplepeople in a hospital never get well, t. They are medicated until they die. This is what is happening in churches across the United States. Every week, believers are being medicated when, in reality, the church is supposed to be a place for the broken. But we are not supposed to stay broken, we must be trained for war against the kingdom of darkness.

What is the Purpose of an Embassy? 

The purpose of an embassy is to assist citizens of its home country living, working, or traveling overseas. Embassy offices are typically located in capital cities and can offer multiple services to its residents abroad, including:

• Issuing emergency passports (if yours got lost or stolen). 
• Replacing/renewing your passport. 
• Issuing birth reports for children born abroad. 
• Issuing death reports for residents who pass away abroad. 
• Accepting ballots for elections in a person’s home country. 
• Filing taxes in a person’s home country. 
• Navigating foreign policy, legal, and medical systems. 
• Assisting residents who get arrested or detained abroad. 
• Notarizing certain documents for use in a foreign country or your home country. 
• Assisting with emergency/evacuation situations. 
• Embassies can help citizens from the foreign country they reside in become citizens of the country the embassy represents.
• Embassies also collaborate with local governments, businesses, and other organizations, and work with local citizens interested in traveling to the US. 

So much was covered that I may be mixing this up, but I think when the Apostle talked about the way we view our warfare. Is it God causing the warfare, the devil, or us? If we are in a wilderness season, then no matter how many devils, we bind, we will stay at that pace. 

We must understand the source of our warfare. There are seasons that we enter into, which are Job seasons. These are seasons in which we have been ordained or called to a certain trial. God might not have sent the trial as He did not send the trial in the case of Job. 

Though God did not cause the trial, he allowed it to produce something in Jobs’ life. Other times, it is us who cause warfare through our own bad choices. I have certainly been there, in bondage to my own choices. In this season, we must allow warfare to make us more into God’s image or the image of Christ.

Welcome to the School of Exorcism and Deliverance! In this lesson, we will explore the fundamentals of exorcism and deliverance as essential spiritual practices. These practices involve the removal of evil spirits or negative energies from individuals or spaces. It is crucial to approach exorcism and deliverance with compassion, faith, and a deep understanding of spiritual realms. As aspiring practitioners, it is essential to cultivate a strong connection to the divine and develop the necessary skills to perform these sacred rituals effectively.

One key aspect of exorcism and deliverance is discernment. Discernment is the ability to distinguish between different types of spiritual influences and accurately identify the presence of negative energies or entities. Practitioners must develop keen spiritual discernment through prayer, meditation, and spiritual practices. It is important to approach each situation with humility and a willingness to seek guidance from higher spiritual authorities, such as angels, saints, or spiritual guides. Developing discernment is a continuous journey that requires dedication and a deep sense of spiritual awareness.

Effective exorcism and deliverance also require a strong foundation in spiritual warfare. Spiritual warfare involves engaging in battles against dark forces or negative energies that seek to harm individuals or disrupt divine order. Practitioners must arm themselves with spiritual weapons such as prayer, fasting, sacred symbols, and divine authority to confront and overcome these malevolent forces. It is essential to approach spiritual warfare with courage, faith, and a steadfast belief in the power of light to triumph over darkness. By cultivating a vibrant spiritual life and deepening their connection to the divine, practitioners can effectively engage in spiritual warfare and deliverance with strength and conviction.

Welcome to the School of Exorcism and Deliverance! In this lesson, we will delve into the foundational principles of exorcism and deliverance. It is crucial to understand that exorcism is the act of casting out evil spirits, while deliverance involves the process of being set free from bondage or oppression. These practices have been prevalent in various cultures and religions around the world, each with its own unique methods and beliefs. As aspiring exorcists and deliverance ministers, it is essential to approach these practices with wisdom, discernment, and a deep understanding of spiritual warfare.

One key aspect of exorcism and deliverance is the importance of discernment. Not all unusual behaviors or manifestations are necessarily due to demonic influence. It is crucial to assess each situation carefully, relying on prayer, spiritual discernment, and, if necessary, seeking the guidance of experienced mentors or spiritual leaders. Moreover, understanding the root causes of oppression or possession is paramount in effectively carrying out exorcisms and deliverance. This may involve delving into past trauma, generational curses, or open doors to demonic influence through sin or occult practices.
