Set Apart or Exiled and Isolated?

By Phyllis Tarbox

Exiled or isolated?There is a big difference between being set apart and being isolated! If your temperament leans toward being a type of loner then all too often the enemy will seduce your emotions with spirits of rejection and isolation in order to separate you from the body of Christ.

There are seasons when God will set you apart in a wilderness place because he wants that one on one time of intimacy with you. These seasons are specific times of refreshing that are meant to give you a new perspective while you are walking through the trial. When the season is over you are prepared to launch. [Read more…]

Deliverance or Counseling? How To Choose?

By Don Ibbitson

deliverance or counseling

There are truisms that we adhere to our ministry: you cannot counsel demons out of people and there are not demons behind every problem! Many people spend years in counseling with minimal lasting growth because they need deliverance. Others see deliverance as a “quick fix” and refuse to walk it out afterwards.

They have little growth and maturity in the Lord and get stay stuck in their circumstances and do not gain sustaining victory. For those people, and many others, solid biblical counseling and discipleship is what serves them best! [Read more…]

Post-Deliverance Deliverance – Really?

By Don Ibbitson

post deliveranceGod delivers his people  (sets them free from demonic spirits) in at least three different ways:

  1. He does it sovereignly without human intervention,
  2. He uses his people to drive out demons (Mark 16:17) and
  3. People drive demons out of themselves!

We have heard about and seen all three methods during our years of counseling and deliverance ministry and the first two methods are fairly common. We know of many people, who at the time of salvation or some subsequent time, become aware of the fact that “something” has left them even if they did not have the theology to understand what it was!

Almost Overpowered: When Demons Behave Badly

By Don Ibbitson

demons behave

Christians should not be afraid of demons. We are called to discern, resist and also drive them out during deliverance ministry. Although we take safeguards, occasionally one will manifest in physical strength against us and it can be disconcerting. This is one such account during one of my sessions many years ago. [Read more…]

The Worst Word Curses Aren’t From Witches and Satanists

By Don Ibbitson

word curses

One of the open doors for demonic torment in a person’s life is the realm of word curses. This is a very broad topic and little understood by most in the Body of Christ. These curses need to be broken in a person’s life so that the associated spirits can be called out with minimal drama and manifestation.

The bible educates us in many places about the power of words (Prov. 18:21, Matt 12:21, James 3 to mention only a few instances). The tongue can be used to bless or curse. Blessings (declarations spoken in agreement with God’s word) activate the Holy Spirit to perform that work. Curses on the other hand, whatever the source, activate the demonic kingdom to carry out that which was spoken. [Read more…]
