COMPREHENSIVE DELIVERANCE MANUAL
The manual is not intended to:
1. Turn your whole ministry into solely a deliverance ministry.
We live in a day when many ministers claim that God has called them to preach only a specific part of the gospel. We have been called to preach the WHOLE COUNSEL of God [Acts 20:27], be it Salvation or Sanctification or Baptism of the Holy Ghost, Prosperity, Faith, and Deliverance etc. etc. We must be balanced and be careful of not to overemphasize or under-emphasize
2. Make you begin seeing demons under every green tree!
While it is true that demons are behind many problems that people have, it is also true that other reasons may be behind some problems. We must use discernment in all that we do.
3. Make you become suspicious of people.
We must not go on witch hunting trip as a result of this manual. Rather, we must use these teachings in a positive way that translates into helping the needy.
THE MINISTRY OF DELIVERANCE
Defined in simple terms:
The process of casting out demons is called deliverance
The ministry of deliverance MUST go hand in hand with the ministry of evangelism.
The absence of this vital ministry in any church results in spiritually disabled Christians being raised in the church.
SCRIPTURAL BASIS
1. Jesus commanded it. Mark 6:7; Mark 16:15-18; Matt. 10:1-8
2. Jesus practiced it. Mk. 2:2-20 with Mt. 8:28-34; Mat.9:32-33; Matt. 12:22 with Lk. 11:14; Matt. 15:22-29 with Mk. 7:25-30; Matt. 17:14-18 with Mk. 9:17-27 and Lk. 9: 37-42; Mk. 1:23-26 with Lk. 4:33-35; Mk. 16:9 with 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 good 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
3. The disciples practiced it. Mk. 9:38; Lk. 10:17
