Deliverance Ministries is an outreach dedicated to meeting the spiritual, moral, psychological, social, and educational needs of the community. Our first obligation is to meet man’s spiritual needs. However, we believe that the “abundant life,” promised by our Lord Jesus Christ, is more than a mere existence in this world. It is a conquering of the spirit of defeat; the joy of forgiveness replacing the guilt of sin; the gift of love replacing the curse of hate; and the immediate assurance of eternal life vice the dark questioning of eternal damnation. Further, it is deliverance from the clutches of the thief—the devil—that has come to steal, kill and destroy your life.

Our Mission is Spiritual Growth, Numerical Growth and Financial Growth.

Each of us has to grow spiritually, becoming more Christlike, in order to become more effective witnesses for the kingdom. We have to learn to exercise greater faith, knowing that “with God nothing shall be impossible.” We have to learn more about Christ, in order to pray and act within His will—effective prayer vice praying amiss is a result of knowing Christ. We have to seriously study the Word of God.

…And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. Acts 11:26

As we become more effective witnesses (through Spiritual Growth) Numerical Growth will occur. We can look forward to people wanting to become a member of the family of God in Christ, as well as becoming a member of this local congregation, because they see something in us that is worth having—Christ and the abundant life He offers.

And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed. Acts 13:48

With Spiritual Growth a person also experiences growth as a good steward of what God has entrusted to them. They become a better manager of their income and expenses. Also, with growth in membership the ministry experiences growth in its financial support, which enables it to put its programs in action. By maintaining an honest and godly system of giving, we all experience financial growth.

I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and has pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now I have seen with joy thy people, which are present here, to offer willingly unto thee. 1 Chronicles 29:17
