What is Spiritual Liberation?

The theme of spiritual liberation is very extensive, but it is something that the people of God have to deal with. It is very sad to know that, today, the children of God are still in spiritual poverty due to their lack of understanding; or even, with strengths in your mind that prevent you from believing in everything your Heavenly Father has for them.

Spiritual Liberation allows you to receive blessings

Just imagine the following: You have just been given a dazzling palace, with all the comforts you have always dreamed of. There are many doors that lead to different places of the palace, places that you would like to enjoy, such as: the pool, the game room, the garden, the gym and others. But you are locked in a room from which you can not get out, either for lack of understanding and revelation, for manners, for strengths established in your mind or for ties. Do not you think you're missing out on that wonderful gift?

In the same way, it happens with the people who receive the Lord as their Savior. First, they received their salvation by grace, because they did nothing to win it, like the palace; and do not go further, because they are locked in a room (call men's customs, strengths, lack of knowledge or doctrines), squandering all the blessings they can receive by simply opening the door to the ministry of spiritual liberation. Observe that the gift is not lost, it simply does not take advantage (this is for the case of people who go to extremes, thought that if there is no spiritual liberation, there is no salvation); for, the fact that a person is wasting the children's bread, which is spiritual liberation, does not mean that he is not saved.

Our Heavenly Father wants his children to be blessed, and that everything that is preventing them from doing so disappears. Just imagine the pain that, as a father, He experiences when he sees his children suffer so many hardships as a result of not believing in his Word. It is time for us to get up and discover the influence of the enemy in our life.

liberation definition: Etymologically this word comes from the Latin "Liberatio" which refers to the fact of freeing something or someone. Speaking of liberation implies the breaking of the corporal and spiritual ties that prevent any individual, animal or natural phenomenon from evolving or evolving in its entirety.

How did the ministry of spiritual liberation begin?
The mystery of spiritual liberation began with John the Baptist, when he began to prepare the people of Israel to receive the Kingdom of God. With the preaching of the Kingdom of God, the ministry of spiritual liberation that Jesus was going to bring began. "In those days John the Baptist appeared preaching in the desert of Judea, and said: Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has been approached. " he proclaimed the arrival of Jesus (Matthew 3,2). What did Jesus say about John the Baptist and the Kingdom of God? "From John the Baptist and today, the Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence, and violent men snatch it by force (as a precious prize, an action in the Kingdom of heaven sought with burning zeal and with intense effort ) ". (Matthew 3.1,2)

The reason why Jesus says that, since the days of John the Baptist, the Kingdom of heaven suffers violence, it is because it was John who began to preach the Kingdom of God, and that was the moment when confrontation began with the Devil. When the Kingdom of God is preached, the visible manifestation is spiritual liberation. In other words, the devil became more enraged when he realized that the days of possessing and oppressing human beings were over.

Jesus begins by preaching the Kingdom saying: 'The time has been fulfilled and the kingdom of God has come closer. Repent and believe in the gospel. " (Mark 1.15), The arrival of Jesus was prepared by John, the Baptist, through his constant preaching about the Kingdom. Likewise, Jesus begins his ministry, teaching and preaching about the Kingdom of God, which is what would bring the spiritual liberation of demons to people.

Jesus confronted the demons; "But there was in the synagogue of them a man with an unclean spirit, who cried out: Mark (1: 249) - iAh! What do you have with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God. Then Jesus rebuked him, saying: "Be quiet and get out of him! (Mark 1:26), And the impure spirit, shaking it with violence and giving a howl, came out of it. "Everyone was amazed, so they argued among themselves, saying," What is this? What new doctrine is this, that with authority commands even the impure spirits, and obey it? (Mark 1:28) Very soon his fame spread throughout the province around Galilee. "

(Mark 1.23-28) Jesus was speaking in the synagogue with authority, and the demons could no longer bear the anointing that was in Him. Suddenly, the man shouted loudly in front of all who were there: "Ah! ! What do you have with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God. " (Mark 1.24). Next, Jesus rebukes him, sends him to silence and orders him to leave him. Now, remember that no person before Jesus had cast out a demon.

In the Old Testament, the closest or closest thing to this, we see it when David played the harp, and the evil spirit that was on Saul, moved away. That had been the closest thing to casting out demons before Jesus arrived. No person, prophet, priest or king had the authority to cast out demons. Before Jesus, no one had commanded a demon to come out of a person. Jesus was the first to do it when he began his ministry preaching the Kingdom of God. This caused the two kingdoms to collide violently, causing the astonishment of all those present.

The spiritual liberation of demons in people is a visible demonstration that the Kingdom of heaven has reached a region or a place. There are many ministries that do not believe in spiritual liberation; therefore, there is no deliverance from demons in their midst. The sad thing is that, if there is no spiritual liberation of demons, it is because they are not preaching the Kingdom of God.

to Spiritual Liberation and the Ministry of Jesus
What was the ministry of Jesus? Wherever Jesus went, the Lord displayed the four main aspects of his ministry: he preached, he taught, he healed, he cast out devils. "Jesus went throughout Galilee. Teaching in their synagogues. Preaching the gospel of the Kingdom and healing every sickness and disease in the people. He spread his fame throughout Syria, and brought to him all those who had ailments. Those afflicted by various diseases and torments. The demoniacs. Lunatics and paralytics. And healed them. " (Matthew 4.23.24) "And he preached in their synagogues throughout Galilee. And cast out the demons. " Mark 1.39.

Through all the gospels, we see Jesus doing these four things: preaching, teaching, healing the sick and casting out demons. Today, there are many pastors, ministers and believers who practice the first three, but do not dare to cast out demons, because the ministry of spiritual liberation is very controversial and persecuted. When it is preached and taught about the Kingdom, demons begin to manifest and people begin to be free.

Why does not this happen in some ministries and churches? Because it has opted more for the psychology and psychiatry of the world than for what Jesus taught with his example. We have gone looking for world methods to help people who are depressed and tied down. We are giving them carnal and human weapons to solve problems that are mostly spiritual; and for that reason, we see people who remain as oppressed as when they arrived at the church. Instead of giving them the solutions of God and of believing in the power of the cross, in the Blood, in the Word and in the anointing of the Holy Spirit of God, we are giving them advice and remedies from men.

Why does a believer need liberation?

When a person comes to Christ, he has a new birth in his spirit, he is made a new creature. But, your soul (will, emotions and mind) remains intact, in the sense that there is no new birth in it. Therefore, the soul of the believer needs to be transformed, renewed and liberated. "So if anyone is in Christ, a new creature is: old things have passed away; all are made new ", 2 Corinthians 5.17.

The word is very clear, we are a new creature. That means that in our spirit, we are new, we are free, we are holy, we are justified; but as we mentioned earlier, there is another part of our being called soul, which needs to be liberated, healed and transformed. "Be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God." (Romans 2.1, 2)

In the soul, it is where the believers have wounds, ties, lack of forgiveness, feelings of rejection and low self-esteem. It is from all this that they need to be released and healed. Then you will be ready to receive the Word, grow and mature. " "Certainly oppression makes the wise go mad, and gifts corrupt the heart." (Ecclesiastes 7.7), When there is a demon influencing people, it does not let them think, since it oppresses them with illnesses and depression; therefore, it is necessary to minister to them first spiritual liberation, so that they may receive the word in their hearts.

Why has the Church not understood the ministry of spiritual liberation?
The primary reason is the influence of the spirit of Greece that has been introduced into the church. This spirit has cut off all that is supernatural in the church.

Some characteristics of the spirit of Greece, which is influencing the Church of Christ:
• Humanism: the exaltation of man.
• Intellectualism: the exaltation of human intelligence. The recognition and achievement of goals and their symbols, such as diplomas, titles and riches. All these things replace the anointing and the power of God.
• Denies everything that can not be explained.
• Denies the existence of demons, thus preventing the release of believers.
• Resists everything supernatural, such as gifts, healings, prophecy, miracles, etc.

We can talk more about this spirit that has done so much damage to the church, but I just want to give it its basic characteristics. There are many ministers, churches and believers who do not believe in spiritual liberation, because there is a spirit of Greece that is Influencing them. They prefer to see their sheep bound and wounded by the enemy instead of believing in the ministry of liberation.

Can a believer be or be possessed by a demon?
No believer can be possessed by a demon; but yes, he can be oppressed, obsessed, depressed, sick and bound by him. If the believer still has certain open doors that give him legal rights, such as: generational curses, traumas and past abuses, the constant practice of a sin, among others, the enemy has the legal right to oppress and bind him. You and I know that you can not possess us, because the Holy Spirit lives within us, in our spirit, and possession implies being the total owner of a person, in spirit, soul and body; so that if the Spirit of God is in us, that of the enemy can not be. However, oppression can be in the body, in the mind, in the emotions and in the will, if a believer gives it a legal right.

The ministry of Jesus is composed of four main aspects:
preach. Heal, teach and cast out demons.
• Jesus delegates the authority so that we can do the same.
• The condition of the sheep is sad. They need to be clean and healed.
• Jesus taught us that spiritual liberation should be part of the believers' daily diet.

The spiritual liberation leads us to obtain more understanding of the kingdom of God, and this is a unique treasure. close the door of spiritual poverty, recognizing everything that somehow oppresses our spirit, soul and therefore our body.
