- Self-deliverance.
Is it possible to deliver yourself
from demons and from curses?
I want to welcome you to my channel.

It's possible to be self-delivered.
But you must understand that the protocol
or the principle for deliverance in the New Testament
as outlined by Jesus and practiced by the Apostles,
is the principle of somebody casting out a demon
out of you.
So that's the general rule
but you can experience self-deliverance.
I'm going to read to you two verses that can indicate
that self-deliverance is possible.
Proverbs 6:3.
"Deliver yourself, son.
"Deliver yourself like a gazelle.
Deliver yourself like a bird."
So now definitely this is not directly speaking of
demonic oppression and demonic attack
but the principles that apply to this story
which in the context it deals with overcoming debt
as well as other pledges or covenants
or things that you came in agreement with,
they can also apply to us
who are dealing with spiritual forces.
Few things I want you to consider in self-deliverance.
Number one is you have to recognize that you have a problem
and that problem is demonic in the root.
Recognizing that you have a demon,
recognizing that you have a demonic attack in your life,
is half of your deliverance already.
Most people cannot receive deliverance because of deception.
The problem with the bondage is that
bondage is extremely deceptive.
When Jesus told His disciples that if you obey My words
and you will be free. If you stay in My truth
and you will be liberated,
people who responded back to Him, they said the following:
in John 8:33.
So, I want you to notice that they are deceived.
So, deception will never lead to deliverance;
desperation leads to deliverance.
And when you recognize that you have a need of deliverance,
that is the first step to self-deliverance.
David says in Psalms 34:4:
When you begin to understand that you are being bound
by something and it's spiritual in nature;
and you cry out to God, you seek Him with all of your heart,
David says "And he delivered me."
And in Proverbs it says, "Deliver yourself,"
meaning through that process of spiritual growth
God can deliver you from demonic spirits.
Number two is you have to repent of any [known] sin.
Confess those sins to God and forsake them.
Release any unforgiveness that you would have towards somebody.
Confess the sins of your ancestors.
Not so they can be forgiven, but so that you can be freed.
Repentance is the key to self-deliverance.
Deep sorrow over your sin.
The ignorance, the deception maybe that you were a part of,
engaging in new age or engaging in witchcraft,
involving yourself making covenants
and making deals with the devil,
or may be stepping into the enemy's territory,
opening your life to the influence of spirit of pornography
or spirit of lust,
when you repent, something happens in the spirit realm:
those doors, they get closed.
When you repent, God opens the window of His mercy.
Number three is renounce.
Renounce all contact with the devil and with the occult.
When you renounce, you break away from the chain.
You break away from the connection that the enemy
might have had toward you.
In 2 Corinthians 4:2, it says:
Renounce the hidden things.
Renounce the secret sins.
Renounce the shame.
Renounce the guilt.
Renounce the covenants.
Renounce the vows.
Renounce the promises.
Renounce the spells.
Renounce witchcraft.
Renounce occult.
Renounce demonic objects.
Renounce what the Lord brings [to mind.]
As you recognize that you have a spiritual problem
as you repent, and as you renounce,
now you are ready to release yourself in Jesus' name.
Release yourself. Where you can verbally say,
"I release myself from the spirit of fear."
"I release myself from the spirit of bondage."
"I release myself from the spirit of depression."
"I release myself from the spirit of suicide."
"I release myself from the spirit of pride and unbelief."
I repent, I renounce and I release.
I release myself in the name of Jesus.
Not through my ability, not through my repentance,
but through the name of Jesus Christ.
There's only one name the can set you free
and that name is Jesus Christ.
When you release yourself, you might feel
something leave your body, you may feel lighter,
you might not feel much.
After that you must continue to resist the enemy.
The Bible says, "Resist the devil and he will flee from you."
Resist the devil means resist the devil who will seek
to regain control over you.
Resist the enemy who will seek to gain mastery over you.
When you repent and you renounce and you release yourself,
the enemy goes on the outside.
But he will still seek to gain the entrance on the inside
and you have to keep keep resisting him by faith.
Keep resisting him by the Word of God.
Do not yield to the doubts and lies of the enemy
that he will penetrate and try to get into your head.
When you have repented, when you have renounced,
and you have released yourself;
as you resist the enemy, you must intentionally, forcefully,
replace whatever the Lord has delivered you from.
The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 3:17:
Real freedom is not where there is absence of a demonic spirit;
it's when there is a presence of the Holy Spirit.
So God isn't just interested in delivering you,
He is interested in replacing that which used to torment you
with His Spirit, with new habits,
with new behaviors, new actions.
So for example, if you would be spending evenings
hanging out with wrong crowd,
you will spend evenings hanging out with the right crowd.
If you would spend maybe mornings getting drunk,
you spend morning reading the Word.
So you replace what you have renounced.
Don't just remove the enemy; replace the enemy.
Self-deliverance will not work if you only pray the prayer
confess your sins,
renounce the witchcraft, renounce the curses,
and then begin to resist it yet live your life empty
and void of the presence of God's Word,
presence of prayer,
Christian discipline, Christian community,
and Christian support.
It just won't work.
Number seven is you have to renew your mind
to your identity in Jesus Christ.
It's one thing to remove the enemy, the devil, the entity.
But the Lord also wants to renew your mind.
A lot of times people get truly delivered
but they're not truly changed
because transformation according to Romans 12:2,
hinges on the renewal of your mind.
The renewing of the mind is like the remodeling of your mind.
It's when you're taking the lies out
and replace them with the truth.
This is where the strongholds are broken.
So you can get the demon out,
but still have the strongholds living inside of you
that needs to be dealt with and combated with the Word of God.
And this renewal of the mind solidifies your self-deliverance.
Be rooted
or I call it, remain rooted in the house of God.
Community and being close to other believers
is the missing component in so many people's freedom.
When you live by yourself, when you isolate yourself,
you're playing right into the hand of the enemy.
Wolves attack, lions attack
animals there are lagging behind.
Amalek attacked the outskirts, the strugglers of Israel.
Be an organ in the body of Jesus.
Don't be an organ in the bank.
You know like, there is organs in the bank
where they hold that organ either frozen
or in a particular temperature
hoping to find a body for that organ?
So many Christians are organs in the bank.
They're members just online, not connected to anybody.
Not connected to a local church.
"Oh, the Church are hypocrites.
"Oh, the Church are not spiritual enough.
I'm not being fed."
Whatever the excuse is, overcome that excuse.
Go into a local church.
Deliverance is supposed to make the demons homeless, not you.
You should not lose your spiritual home.
The Bible says, "The righteous man is like a tree planted."
He is rooted and planted
and he's flourishing in the courts of his God.
David says, "I would rather be a gatekeeper."
I'd rather park cars in God's house
than to be in a tent of wickedness.
So if you want to walk in self-deliverance,
recognize that you have a problem.
Number two is repent of any known sins
the Lord brings to your mind.
Number three is renounce anything that you need to renounce.
Number four is release yourself in the name of Jesus.
Number five is resist the devil
when he tries to come back and regain entry.
Number six is replace whatever the Lord
has been removing from your life.
Number seven is begin to renew your mind
by confessing God's Word.
Number eight is remain planted in God's house.
And the last one is number nine,
remove any objects from your house, computer, your phone
or your life that connects you to your past sin
or that are accursed in nature, detestable before God.
And you know what those objects are.
They are questionable things.
They're things that don't glorify God.
They're occultic objects.
They are occultic books.
Maybe particular charms.
You are burning sage at home to clear the atmosphere
from spirits.
Maybe you still have objects from your ex-boyfriend
or your ex-girlfriend as gifts that gives that tie you to them
and create emotional ties,
or you have other things like Ouija boards.
But the moment you begin to you know,
wear all kinds of clothing with skulls and everything,
death and suicide;
all of that stuff is going to bring you back to the bondage.
So I want to encourage you,
remove anything that's questionable.
Remove anything that you're in doubt about.
Keep your house pure.
Keep your life holy and dedicated to God.
I want to encourage you to keep growing in Jesus Christ
because the Bible says, "Perfect love casts out fear."
The word "perfect" there means mature.
As you grow in the Lord as it says in Exodus,
little by little I will deliver you.
"Little by little I will drive them out,
until you have increased, and then you will inherit the land."
And then you will step into your full dominion,
full victory over that issue in Jesus' Name.
Thank you for watching this video.
I hope it brought encouragement, some clarity,
and some practical steps you can take today
to walk in self-deliverance.
