WHAT IS INNER HEALING AND DELIVERANCE?
Inner healing and deliverance (IH&D) is biblical, and it is not like Hollywood! It is not something to be scared or ashamed of. IH&D is a part of the promise and the power of the cross. It is something that every single one of us can benefit from, and that does not diminish the power of the cross. It magnifies it!
We all carry hurts and baggage with us, whether from our own bad choices, through ignorance, or often through no fault of our own. Whatever the reason, it means we ALL need inner healing. We believe that those who are saved, who have made Jesus Christ their personal Savior, cannot be controlled by demons, but demonic oppression and harassment can come to reinforce our hurts and mistakes, to isolate us, and to use those hurts and mistakes to negatively shape how we see and interact with the world. Jesus came so we could be set free.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Gates of Freedom's style of IH&D does not promote yelling or screaming. We do not believe we need to embarrass you or make a scene in order to see you set free. We believe that using discretion and love is far more effective and lasting.
Our Gates of Freedom sessions of IH&D that are a combination of group and individual settings. These are IH&D sessions not services. Questions and interaction are appropriate as long as they are on topic and do not cause distraction for the group. In the group setting, we will explain the process and lead the group through a series of simple prayers. In the individual setting, we pair you up with a team (usually of 2, but can be 3 for training) in a more private and confidential area to minister directly and prophetically to you and your specific needs.
Sessions can last 1.5 to 3 hours depending on the number of participants and ministers in attendance.
HOWEVER
Inner healing and deliverance is not counseling. Gates of Freedom is overseen by ordained ministers and trained team members not licensed medical professionals. We believe that IH&D can be a major step towards freedom, however it should not be viewed/used as an alternative to doctors and/or counselors. For those with medical/mental health concerns, we strongly recommend you seek the assistance of related medical professionals alongside IH&D.
