The Beginnings of a Deliverance Ministry

I have a professional blogger on standby to help me explain what a deliverance ministry is and how that affects the future of this business The Metalcore Church. The Metalcore Church (MXC) supports radical Christianity that means we don’t get to live stagnate Christian lives in a mundane cycle of repetitive unfruitful behaviors. Church is always Church, but I discovered an entirely new world of Christianity that I have never been exposed to in my church attending routine. A world of spiritual lessons outside of church campus like nothing I’ve ever experienced. I spent many years understanding what it what. A special type of Christianity called Operating in the Prophetic. Now I have read the Bible like a book in most common translations because when I first started to believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, I was told that the Bible wasn’t true because there are so many different translations. So, me with my engineering curiosity on steroids as usual I read through the NIV, NCV, NLT, NASB, ESV, MSG, AMP, KJV, and now I’m diving into the TPT. My current Study Bible is the CSB with major in-depth commentary and the Chain reference. Also, I recently discovered the power of the Jesus Calling devotional, which has helped tremendously improve my daily devotions. I have two alternate translations Bibles that I poke through from time to time one is the New Life Recovery version of the NLT and the Celebrate Recovery Bible. So, I’ve literally spent my whole life, it feels like, studying and learning the Bible in a scholarly perspective and reading the pages as if it were a novel book to be read like a story. I got baptized in the Holy Spirit at Spiritual emphasis after I was baptized in water in the Teen Challenge pool at the Shafter Ranch. I started attending regular worship nights at Grace Assembly where we dive into worshipping the Lord Jesus Christ from 7am-10pm but regularly went as late as 1am because it just was so addicting to block out the world and offer complete focus in worship, prayer, confession, and prostrate surrender to Jesus Christ we opened a whirlwind of God’s presence. We called it Holy Spirit Fire and we learned how to operate in dense presence of the Holy Spirit. In this whirlwind of God’s presence, I was able to do demonic deliverance, receive countless prophetic words from the Lord, see visions, feel the prophetic winds of God, and dive deep into Holiness to encounter God on a very personal level. Strict deliverance ministry is beyond regular church attendance, it’s beyond scripture, it’s beyond the prophetic operations, it is the tangible evidence of the spiritual realm and the physical realm. A deliverance ministry demands stricter moral obligations than the Christian community. To be a radical Christian means a higher standard of obedience. I’m not starting a church for you to attend regularly and live comfortably in your sin. A deliverance ministry will be abrasive, it will be painful, it will bring up all your past dirt until we deal with it completely, and you will need to come to God with all your dirt and make peace to participate in the deliverance ministry. For Example: I support Christian tattoos, but as I draw closer to leading a deliverance ministry, I can feel the desire to have my tattoos removed. The conscience must be clear of guilt in order to encounter demons. Demons have access to everything you’ve done. They will accuse you publicly as you draw them up from inside of someone. You must go through the reconciliation for those sins for God to allow His Spirit to operate in delivering people from this bondage. We need to be radical not complacent. It may very well be a daily deliverance on yourself in order to participate in a Deliverance ministry that means if you must repent 1000 times then we need to go through it together as a ministry. It’s too easy to sit through an hour preaching and go home the same way you came in. Deliverance ministry cuts deep it makes grown men cry it changes your homelife. When people are released from demonic bondages they puke, they shake violently, they bite at you, they will need to be restrained, you cannot have hidden sin during a deliverance, or you could be hurt physically. The host could scratch you or like that verse:

I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him.”

17 “You unbelieving and perverse generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.” 18 Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of the boy, and he was healed at that moment.

19 Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”

20 He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” Matthew 17:16-20

Unbelief in supernatural things is a huge downfall in churches all across America Perversity is even more prevalent, and if you amplify both concepts you lose an entire generation from being able to do a demonic deliverance. Demons run rampant in the lives of believers because they don’t believe in the supernatural. They don’t believe in spirits and when they encounter spiritual blockade the make physical excuses as to why certain things aren’t working in their lives the way the should be. Sometimes not always it is the result of demonic harassment. The forces of evil do not want you to live the blessed high calling that God has for your life. He rejoices in you living stagnate, unfruitful, unbelieving, complacent, not feeling guilty for sin, and living however you want because your adversary understands the rewards you can obtain by absolute obedience to Christ. I want to push you to get the rewards average Christians fail to obtain. We all know the rewards of lawlessness, many of us have had to make ramen without hot water. You know the depth of consequences associated with breaking all the rules, rebelling against everything you’ve ever been taught. Of course, I did it myself out of curiosity my hyper mind tests the limits of everything. What is the debt cap on my own life steep, but I found the bottom? What is the highest you can get without dying? How much alcohol can I consume before I end up destroying my kidneys? People tell me not to do something leave it to me to figure out why. All roads lead to the same path jails, institutions, and death. But let me tell you about this other path. You could stop doing evil and live neutral eat sleep work spend time with your kids repeat or you could push the other boundaries to find out how massive the spiritual reward system really goes. If you continue to plant bad seeds and eat bad harvests, you will eventually die. But what does it look like to plant a good seed? What does it mean to eat a good harvest? Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Galatians 6:9 Doing good seems weird. Planting a good seed is difficult when you plant it but let me assure you: Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Luke 6:38 You must not use me as a measuring stick because I limit myself in doing good based on other people’s actions towards me, but I have faith you can do much better than me. You just take an entire year and do focus giving to people in need around you and I have seen truckloads of cash being dumped into people’s laps. I want you to experience at least one good harvest in your life that way you will finally have tasted the goodness of the Lord. You can make bad decisions your whole life and eat bad crops. Man, I know people who have spent their entire life ripping other people off and every other week they are getting punched and robbed and windows on their car being bashed out and girlfriend cheating and lying. Just a whirlwind of demonic activity and you can see the physical evidence of a house full of demons just damages to the drywall, trash and dirty laundry everywhere. Cleanliness is associated with Godliness isn’t necessarily true when you have the Holy Spirit living inside of you, he often prompts you to take care of things that have been entrusted to you. You guys think my making a spectacle about me you are somehow punishing me for my past sins as if I haven’t already talked to God about everything. The closer I draw near to God the more amplified my own sins become in my personal life. Like you need to dive so deep that you break free from the weight of guilt and begin to live free in Christ. I get it like heavy doses of remorse for the stuff I was involved in during my active addiction. God’s grace is enough for me, but I don’t reciprocate it very well. Grace doesn’t just give me a free pass to do it again it requires some restitution. It requires verbal apologies with sincerity and a remorse for sin. You don’t get to handle prophetic powers without a broken and contrite spirit. I wouldn’t be typing this without prophetic security that I have in Christ my enemies would have already kicked in the apartment door and beat me up for whatever I’m being accused of. But God is very capable of dealing with me for the wrongs that I’ve committed. I am to submit to a member of the International Society of Deliverance Ministers (ISDM) so I have a feeling that will require some work on my part. I am not free to act a fool and continue sinning. I have reobtained my freedom from cigarettes that I didn’t think was possible to do twice. I am currently 75 days cleans from Drugs, Alcohol, Cigarettes and Vape. <script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4333612173011224"
