Knowing that you have been delivered is actually the deliverance that you need in your life.
He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐬. - Col 1:13-14
Many believers are still waiting for another deliverance session to become free. You are not trying to get free. You are already free if you realise who you are in Christ.
Because of what Christ did on the Cross, you have been released from the past. You have been released from the trauma and the bad memories.
When you are redeemed from something, you are released into a new position. What you are redeemed from no longer has any hold on you.
For you to experience the freedom that was already given to you, you need to know the forgiveness of sins. The word 'forgiveness' comes from the Greek word 'aphiemi', which means 'to send away' such that it never returns again.
The forgiveness of sins includes ALL --- what others did to you, what you did to others and what you did to yourself. You cannot pick and choose which sin is forgiven and which sin is not.
When you make a decision by faith (we are called to live by faith) to forgive the person who caused you the trauma; and to forgive yourself for being the victim (or as a wrongdoer), you are positioning yourself to receive the freedom-experience.
Only when you understand what Christ did for the remission of sins will you be able to release that forgiveness upon others and yourself.
When Christ delivered you from the domain of darkness and transferred you to His kingdom, you lost the rights to hold onto unforgiveness.
Deliverance is not a ministry session. It is knowing the truth which makes you free (John 8:32).
