Transcript
- 0:00Hey everyone, welcome back. Today I have
- 0:02a returning guest, Taylor Scrogggins.
- 0:04She is an evangelist, she is a minister,
- 0:06she is an author and most importantly
- 0:09she is a extremely dear friend and
- 0:12sister in Christ who has actually helped
- 0:14me a lot on my own journey when it comes
- 0:17to the conversation of deliverance and
- 0:19inner healing which is what we are going
- 0:21to be talking about today. So Taylor,
- 0:24welcome back.
- 0:25>> Thanks for having me back. It's always
- 0:27so exciting to be back and I love just
- 0:30sitting and talking with you and just
- 0:33hashing these deep things of God out.
- 0:36It's sometimes it can feel isolating I
- 0:38think like on our Christian walk and
- 0:41friendships and we don't always feel
- 0:43like we can have friends that we can
- 0:44talk about these things with. And so I
- 0:47just value you so much and like who you
- 0:49are in my life and that we can sit down
- 0:51and talk about the deep things of the
- 0:53Lord together. It really, your
- 0:55friendship has really blessed me a lot.
- 0:57>> Praise God. Me too. Um, I wanted to just
- 1:00start very briefly if you could hash out
- 1:03a few minutes uh what your testimony is
- 1:06just for anybody that's like a new
- 1:08subscriber to Heaven and Healing that
- 1:09has not seen you on the show before. And
- 1:11with that, tell me why you were led to
- 1:16write your book, Breaking Demonic
- 1:17Chains, because I think that's just a
- 1:19really incredible segue for what we're
- 1:22going to be talking about today. Yeah, I
- 1:23love that question too because I mean
- 1:26the testimony of why, you know what I
- 1:28mean? Why write the book and what God
- 1:30did in my life. And so, um, I grew up in
- 1:32church. I was raised in a Christian
- 1:35home, um, good Christian home in
- 1:38wonderful churches, spiritfilled
- 1:40churches. I was around spiritual gifts
- 1:42and real authentic Christianity. And I
- 1:45did see the power of God my whole life.
- 1:48Um, the only thing was I grew up in a
- 1:50home that was, yes, the spiritual gifts
- 1:53were there, but there was a little bit
- 1:55of legalism in the home too. And so we
- 1:58were very like, don't watch Harry
- 2:01Potter, don't watch Disney Channel.
- 2:03Uhhuh.
- 2:03>> Okay. Cuz I was going to ask you like
- 2:04what that looks like, what the legalism
- 2:06looks like. And
- 2:07>> Yeah.
- 2:08>> Maybe you can talk even later like kind
- 2:09of how to find that healthy balance.
- 2:12>> Yes. Yeah. And even things like you're
- 2:15not allowed to date, like you're not
- 2:16even allowed to have crushes. Like, and
- 2:18it was all coming from obviously my
- 2:20parents had the best, one of the best
- 2:22for me, and had good godly intentions.
- 2:25But sometimes when it can be so
- 2:27authoritarian and strict, it obviously,
- 2:29you know, psychologically makes the kids
- 2:32be more curious and want to rebel and be
- 2:34like, well, why can't I do that? And
- 2:36then when the parents aren't equipped
- 2:37with, hey, this is what the Bible says.
- 2:39This is why we don't watch That's So
- 2:41Raven because psychic mediumship is
- 2:43demonic because that like I didn't get
- 2:45those kinds of answers. I don't know
- 2:47that I would have listened to them, but
- 2:48I didn't get them nonetheless. And so it
- 2:50just felt like a lot of rules and like
- 2:52taboo. And so I'd be like, "Well, why? I
- 2:54want to know what's I always had a
- 2:56hunger for the supernatural and the
- 2:58spiritual." And I always loved God, but
- 3:00there was almost like a do not enter
- 3:02sign over the darker kind of stuff. And
- 3:04I was like, "Well, what's back there?"
- 3:06Even as like a 5-year-old kid. Um, and
- 3:09so that kind of lingered and stayed
- 3:11there. I grew up in the church. And then
- 3:14around middle school, just like every,
- 3:17you know, awkward tween, you know, you
- 3:19start getting self-conscious. I develop
- 3:21an eating disorder. I don't know that
- 3:23it's a spirit. So this thing starts
- 3:25whispering to me. I think it's my own
- 3:26thoughts. And it's like, well, just
- 3:28don't eat and starve yourself. And so I
- 3:30come into agreement with that. I develop
- 3:31an eating disorder. I'm going to an all
- 3:34girls school at this time. And then I
- 3:37youth group starts. I start going to
- 3:38youth group because there's boys there.
- 3:40I did not really care about the church
- 3:42thing. I'm like, "Oh, there's boys." So,
- 3:45I encounter God in this youth group,
- 3:46though. And this is the first time I
- 3:49really see the power of God moving. I'm
- 3:51seeing I'm praying for people and and
- 3:53other people are too, and seeing
- 3:54healings. Um, didn't see like
- 3:56deliverance in the youth group that
- 3:58really wasn't taught, but saw miraculous
- 4:01healings, a lot of salvations, spiritual
- 4:03gifts, impartation. It was such such an
- 4:06onfire for God youth ministry. And I
- 4:09really even some of the stuff that like
- 4:11I minister and operate now that that was
- 4:13seeds planted when I was in like 8th
- 4:15grade, 9th grade, 10th grade in that
- 4:17youth group. Um and so around this time
- 4:20when I'm learning about the real things
- 4:22of God, the authentic. Um my dad comes
- 4:26home with an astrology book. Um and he
- 4:29starts telling me about astrology. He
- 4:30grew up Muslim. He got saved, but he
- 4:33never got delivered. Wow.
- 4:35>> Yeah. So, there's all that I've been
- 4:37learning about Islam lately,
- 4:39>> dude.
- 4:39>> And like making the connection that your
- 4:41dad was interested in astrology when
- 4:44having never been delivered
- 4:45>> right
- 4:46>> from those Islamic spirits. That is
- 4:48crazy actually the correlation.
- 4:50>> Well, it it goes even like it's so
- 4:53ancient because before there was Islam
- 4:55like so I'm Persian Iranian everything
- 4:58going on in Iran too. So Islam took over
- 5:00Iran before that was they were
- 5:02Zorastrian and that's like Mesopotamia.
- 5:05So like when you get like Egypt,
- 5:07Israelites, like the Assyrians, like in
- 5:10the Old Testament, all those false gods
- 5:12and goddesses, those are all like the
- 5:14same demon gods, Elohim that um they're
- 5:18all worshiped just with different names.
- 5:20And so astrology is connected with that
- 5:22stuff. Like Islam, the prince of Persia,
- 5:24it's literally like a demonic melting
- 5:26pot. You know, I had I talked about
- 5:29this. I don't know if you saw my video
- 5:30with Andrew Andrew Sedra. I had like the
- 5:34um the crescent
- 5:35>> like that's on like that represents
- 5:37Islam, right?
- 5:38>> The moon and the star like the crescent,
- 5:40whatever. I had that on a necklace
- 5:42because I just thought it was like so
- 5:43cool. I had it on a blanket. I had it on
- 5:45a tapestry. I had no idea it was even
- 5:47associated with Islam. But it was just
- 5:50interesting again in hindsight to see
- 5:52that connection and how those gods,
- 5:55those principalities, those demons are
- 5:57all so entrenched within this
- 5:59conversation. But anyway, that's just
- 6:01like a caveat.
- 6:02>> No, no, it's important to talk about
- 6:03because these were the spirits that were
- 6:05influencing me at that time. It's part
- 6:08of my testimony and it's familiar
- 6:09spirits. It came in through my dad and
- 6:12so it wasn't just Islam. He grew up
- 6:14Islam. That was open door. But then he's
- 6:15bringing in astrology and then he starts
- 6:18listening to different gurus. Um he like
- 6:20loved sad guru and would always play his
- 6:23videos in the house and me and my mom
- 6:24would walk by and be like who is this
- 6:26creepy guru you're listening to? And my
- 6:28parents would get in fights about it and
- 6:30so tumultuous like even in the home my
- 6:32parents would argue and my mom would be
- 6:34like Jesus is the only one true god and
- 6:36my dad would be like no there's many
- 6:37paths to god Islam Judaism Christianity
- 6:41we all worship the same god. So this was
- 6:44I was confused in this area for sure cuz
- 6:46I'm going to church and I'm seeing God
- 6:48move. But then my dad who I love and I
- 6:50trust and he is a smart guy and he's the
- 6:52head of the house.
- 6:53>> Yes. The priest of the home is being
- 6:55deceived. And so it literally he gets
- 6:57into universalism. He's not Muslim. He
- 7:00was into like just studying all these
- 7:02different religions. And so then this
- 7:05hasn't opened door to me because the
- 7:07head of our household is in sin. And so
- 7:09then I start doing yoga. I'm just drawn
- 7:12to yoga out of nowhere now. Obviously,
- 7:14it's not out of nowhere. So, yeah, I get
- 7:17into yoga and that's like how I live for
- 7:20a while. One foot in, one foot out. Then
- 7:22I get to college and I just full on
- 7:25chose rebellion at that point. I was
- 7:27disappointed in God. I was believing for
- 7:30just certain things in my life to happen
- 7:32and I got disappointed. And so then I
- 7:34was like, well, I don't trust God
- 7:35anymore. It was just an immature
- 7:38faith thing of like God's not a vending
- 7:41machine. And I had made an idol out of
- 7:43my dreams and out of this like record
- 7:45deal that I had wanted to happen. And I
- 7:47felt like God opened the door to the
- 7:48dream and then shut it. And so then I'm
- 7:50like, well, you're not a good father
- 7:52because you did that to me on purpose,
- 7:54whatever lies I was believing. So I'm
- 7:58like, well, I'm just going to I know the
- 7:59spiritual is real. I can't be an
- 8:01atheist. I've seen too much. So, I'm
- 8:03just going to do this thing on my own
- 8:05because I'm mad at God right now.
- 8:07>> Right.
- 8:07>> So, yeah. Then it was just like I'm
- 8:10ordering crystals. I am really diving
- 8:13into astrology. Like before I would look
- 8:15at my horoscopes and read about the
- 8:18archetypes, but then I started getting
- 8:20into like divination, like the birth
- 8:22chart and really like a lot of the stuff
- 8:24you were doing like the deeper parts of
- 8:26astrology and um I just started getting
- 8:29really into like divination at that
- 8:31point. So then I would numerology and I
- 8:33would look up all these numbers and my
- 8:35name and my birthday and the future that
- 8:38it had for me and um all of this like
- 8:42just the hole in my soul just kept
- 8:44getting I was just getting hungrier and
- 8:46hungrier and hungrier and my spirit was
- 8:48starving because what a lot of people
- 8:51who are not saved like their spirit's
- 8:52dead. You know what I mean? And then you
- 8:54encounter Christ and you believe in him
- 8:56and your spirit comes alive. My spirit
- 8:58was alive and then it was like starving
- 9:00and I felt so empty, so depressed. I had
- 9:03the authentic. I was living in sin, but
- 9:06I had the authentic. And then I turned
- 9:08away for the counterfeit. And I was
- 9:11partying. I was smoking weed, drinking,
- 9:14you know, just living like the college,
- 9:15new age party lifestyle. And um it was
- 9:19like fun for a while. And then the rug
- 9:21got pulled out from underneath me one
- 9:23day and I just got hit with depression,
- 9:25heaviness, sorrow. didn't have a will to
- 9:27live anymore. I just like was so empty.
- 9:31And at that point, God sent someone
- 9:32who's a family friend. She's like a
- 9:34spiritual mother to me. The Lord just
- 9:36told her to show up at my house one day
- 9:38and she did. And she did deliverance on
- 9:40me. And um that was my first of a few
- 9:42deliverance like sessions specifically
- 9:45after I'd gotten into all that stuff.
- 9:48Cuz deliverance is like we all need it.
- 9:49It's ongoing. But, you know, it's like
- 9:51when you get out of new age, you need a
- 9:53couple of like probably really good
- 9:55sessions and fasting to get a lot of
- 9:57that stuff you open yourself up to. So,
- 9:59that's kind of where I was for like the
- 10:01year after I got out of that. Um, but
- 10:04she but that was the first one. And
- 10:05after that first deliverance, I started
- 10:06going back to church again. And then
- 10:08like slowly God started revealing to me
- 10:10the truth about new age. And so, kind of
- 10:13when I had surrendered everything, he
- 10:15gave me the vision for the book. Um, and
- 10:18it kind of happened like in layers. Like
- 10:20when I gave my life completely back to
- 10:23the Lord, I had a vision of the cover of
- 10:26that book, but it was just a picture. I
- 10:28didn't know it was a book like sitting
- 10:30on a shelf in a store in Target. And I
- 10:33didn't know what it was. I thought it
- 10:34was maybe an album. And then over the
- 10:36years, like he just started putting this
- 10:38idea in my heart of like exposing
- 10:40everything, sharing my testimony, but
- 10:43teaching deliverance and freedom and how
- 10:45to close those doors because so many
- 10:47people have opened up those doors in the
- 10:49last few years. And so that's why I
- 10:51wrote the book. It's like everything
- 10:53that God has taught me about how to be
- 10:55free and walk in freedom and have a real
- 10:58relationship with him. And it's like I I
- 11:00basically told the Lord like if this is
- 11:01my only chance and only shot to like
- 11:04write a write something and release it
- 11:06into the world. If this is the one
- 11:08chance I get, I want to share everything
- 11:10that you have taught me, I want a an
- 11:12all-in-one manual on how to turn to
- 11:15Jesus, be filled with the spirit, get
- 11:17set free, deliverance, all that stuff,
- 11:20and and stay planted and walk with the
- 11:22Lord. So that's the heart behind it.
- 11:24>> Amen. And I know it's been such a
- 11:25blessing to people. And I love I
- 11:28whenever we go through your testimony,
- 11:29and I've heard it so many times, but it
- 11:30never gets old to me. And I love just
- 11:32kind of like reflecting on the contrast
- 11:35of our testimonies, how even though
- 11:37they're so different, they are also so
- 11:40similar because we were both just like
- 11:41looking for a way to really feel better.
- 11:45>> You Yeah. You felt almost rejected by
- 11:48God
- 11:49>> and I just felt rejected by the world.
- 11:51And so it's like well the only option
- 11:53here is to just take matters into my own
- 11:56hands
- 11:57>> and become my own god in whatever
- 11:58capacity that may look like.
- 12:01>> And that is the root of why anybody gets
- 12:06involved with new age whether they grew
- 12:07up in the church like you
- 12:09>> or they never knew the church like me
- 12:12and just you know you don't know better
- 12:14so you can't do better sort of thing.
- 12:16>> Yeah. Um now what I have found and you
- 12:19know this obviously what I have found is
- 12:22that so many exnewagers
- 12:25like they get saved right they get born
- 12:28again filled with the spirit they come
- 12:29out of that world where they have
- 12:31experienced so much of that counterfeit
- 12:35where now
- 12:36>> anything that we're discussing about
- 12:39deliverance you even saying oh sometimes
- 12:43it's more than one shot there's layers
- 12:46You have to have like really multiple
- 12:47intense deliverance sessions to get
- 12:50that. Even hearing something like that,
- 12:52someone's going to watch this and
- 12:54they're going to be like, "Oh, my
- 12:56discernment is telling me that's wrong."
- 12:57But it's not your discernment. It's
- 12:59actually your discomfort from the trauma
- 13:01you experienced in the new age.
- 13:02>> That's good. And so that sort of thing
- 13:05just happens where you walk out of so
- 13:10much trauma and deception where now
- 13:13>> you have trouble reconciling
- 13:16the fact that things like deliverance or
- 13:19inner healing is in fact
- 13:22>> biblical and is for the Christian.
- 13:25>> Yeah. Yeah, I mean even for me like
- 13:28>> still that word or those that
- 13:30combination of words inner healing
- 13:32>> like a little feels a little weird to
- 13:34even say that you know in the context of
- 13:36Christianity because of
- 13:38>> what I did and where I came from.
- 13:40>> Yeah. Um, so what what has been your
- 13:43experience with like seeing that just
- 13:45seeing people that come out of new age
- 13:47and how they have a resistance to these
- 13:50sorts of things, but then what happens
- 13:52when they're willing to lay down that
- 13:54resistance in humility and just like
- 13:56trust what the Lord has for them? I
- 13:58think it's always a good thing because
- 14:00like we live in such an outrage culture
- 14:03that like as soon as you see or hear
- 14:05something that doesn't sit well with you
- 14:08like you said you can immediately be
- 14:10like my discernment. But if you're
- 14:12having like a visceral reaction to
- 14:15something, you're probably being
- 14:17triggered by something
- 14:18>> flesh.
- 14:19>> Yeah. or trauma or pain or like a like I
- 14:23don't know like okay my husband he um he
- 14:26like hit his knee and he cut it really
- 14:28bad a couple days ago and it was like
- 14:30he's in pain and every time something
- 14:33touches it like he literally is like ah
- 14:35like he's it's still healing there's a
- 14:37wound there. Um, and so sometimes when
- 14:40we have reactions like that, it's not
- 14:42your discernment. You're getting your
- 14:44wound is getting triggered. Something's
- 14:45touching on that and you're having that
- 14:47reaction and your maybe your brain is
- 14:49trying to protect yourself.
- 14:50>> Good. That's so good.
- 14:51>> Cuz you don't want to go there.
- 14:52>> Um, so it's I think it's a good thing to
- 14:55if you're having like this kind of
- 14:56reaction to okay, don't call it inner
- 14:58healing, just call it healing. Like
- 15:00we're not married to vernacular. Like
- 15:02it's just Jesus. When Jesus shows up, he
- 15:04heals. That's what he does. And so you
- 15:07don't have to say, "Well, inner healing
- 15:08was a movement that started in the '9s
- 15:10with this preacher and that." We're you
- 15:12can throw all of that stuff out the
- 15:13window today because I'm not talking
- 15:15about a movement or a founder today.
- 15:17We're just talking about how we need to
- 15:19let Jesus into the wounded parts of our
- 15:21soul so we can be healed so we can walk
- 15:24in our calling so we can do the things
- 15:26that God's called us to do. So I mean,
- 15:28who wants to walk around like bleeding
- 15:30everywhere? M
- 15:31>> um so
- 15:32>> okay what's let's start with I guess
- 15:34what's the difference between
- 15:36deliverance and inner healing as you
- 15:38would call it.
- 15:39>> Yeah. Yeah. Um so I love this
- 15:42illustration and I have given it a few
- 15:45times of let's say that somebody shot
- 15:48you in the arm. Um and so you're going
- 15:50to go to the doctor. You're going to go
- 15:52to the emergency room and the first
- 15:54thing they're probably going to do is
- 15:55try to take out the foreign object,
- 15:57right? And so like I think of that and
- 15:59it doesn't have to be in this order but
- 16:01this is just an easy analogy. So he's
- 16:03going to take out the thing that doesn't
- 16:05belong there. It's not a part of you. So
- 16:07like there was a moment where that you
- 16:11know collision happened. You were
- 16:12wounded. That thing entered you. So you
- 16:14know a lot of times demons come in
- 16:16through trauma like we've talked about
- 16:17that. So you got to take that thing out.
- 16:20It's not a part of you. It doesn't
- 16:21belong there. So, what I'm seeing in
- 16:23like a lot of deliverance ministry
- 16:26that's happening and deliverance
- 16:27ministry is so needed is that they're
- 16:29taking out the bullet and they're okay
- 16:32like go on your merry way and then they
- 16:34you still have a open wound and when the
- 16:36wound is open things can get in it. You
- 16:38can it can get infected and you could be
- 16:40even worse off than you were before.
- 16:42Other stuff is going to come back in
- 16:43there. Um, and so it's like inner
- 16:46healing is I like to think of it as you
- 16:48know the doctor comes in putting the
- 16:50anti- you know bacterial on it stitching
- 16:53you back up and making sure the wound is
- 16:55closed and healed. And so sometimes it
- 16:58can happen at the same time like you can
- 17:00get delivered the Holy Spirit can just
- 17:02come upon you and start ministering to
- 17:04you. sometimes if you don't really I
- 17:07mean if you're just maybe newer to the
- 17:08things of God and maybe you need someone
- 17:11to walk you through that with praying
- 17:12with you and stuff you know like I had
- 17:14done with you one of the first times
- 17:16that I prayed for you and I had done to
- 17:19me the first time that I had someone
- 17:20pray like inner healing over me um and
- 17:22so that's like the best way that I can
- 17:25kind of describe it is one is you are
- 17:28casting out an entity that is not a part
- 17:30of you that is you know that is is an
- 17:34enemy to us, an enemy to our soul. Inner
- 17:36healing is inviting Jesus into wound,
- 17:39trauma, a place where we have been hurt
- 17:41and harmed and letting him touch it,
- 17:43giving him access. Cuz sometimes we like
- 17:46when you're wounded, you like don't come
- 17:48near me. Like think about a wounded
- 17:49animal like you know in an alley like
- 17:52it's going to like a wounded cat like
- 17:54you want to go and help it and it's like
- 17:55hissing at you and scratching at you.
- 17:57It's like get away. Um because we're
- 17:59trying to protect ourselves. So letting
- 18:00him in, giving him permission, and
- 18:02letting him minister to your heart,
- 18:04speak to you, speak truth over you. Um,
- 18:07and whatever he does in that moment,
- 18:09it's going to be healing. All the Bible
- 18:11says when Jesus would go to all the
- 18:12different towns, they brought all who
- 18:14were sick to him and all of them were
- 18:16healed. Like it's just who he is. He's
- 18:18not going to turn you away. Um, but
- 18:20we've got to give him access. We've got
- 18:22to give him permission.
- 18:23>> Yeah. So, okay, I will share um my
- 18:26experience with this because I've never
- 18:29really told this story before. Uh
- 18:30because I know there is like a taboo
- 18:32just around this subject that I just
- 18:36frankly don't care about anymore because
- 18:38I've seen I've seen the power of God
- 18:40move, you know, and I've seen Yeah. The
- 18:41fruit. the very first time that you
- 18:44prayed deliverance over me, you kind of
- 18:46invited me into that where you were
- 18:48like, you know, I don't remember, you
- 18:50know, this happened before I was even
- 18:52married and now I'm pregnant with my
- 18:54second kid. So, the details are a little
- 18:56murky,
- 18:57>> but I just remember, you know, we're
- 18:59like in the parking lot cuz we got
- 19:00kicked out of the building cuz we were
- 19:01there so long praying. Um, and I was
- 19:04like on the ground and you were casting
- 19:06the demons out and then it gets to a
- 19:08point where I think you had discerned
- 19:10that, you know, first of all, it was my
- 19:12first experience with deliverance. You
- 19:14knew the trauma that I had from new age
- 19:17and it was pretty intense for me. And so
- 19:19I think you just discerned like it's
- 19:21probably time to back off like the
- 19:23casting out right now.
- 19:24>> It was like 10:00 at night, too.
- 19:26>> It was just there's a lot. It was a lot.
- 19:28Um, and that was not my last deliverance
- 19:30either. But you kind of started to round
- 19:32out with uh basically you you did that
- 19:36exact thing. You invited Jesus. You said
- 19:38like I really I want you to just
- 19:40>> think about or ask the Lord,
- 19:43>> you know, to reveal to you a time when
- 19:46the whatever one of the most traumatic
- 19:48experiences of your life basically.
- 19:50>> Um let him reveal that to you. Let him
- 19:53show you, you know, when he was there.
- 19:56And I instantly got this visual of
- 20:00myself in daycare, which was my first
- 20:04and only experience in daycare. My
- 20:07grandom started to watch me after this
- 20:09um fiasco. My mom tried to drop me off
- 20:12and I was so terrified of her leaving. I
- 20:16I was just completely struck with
- 20:20anxiety and fear and anger, all of these
- 20:24things. It's such a visceral memory of
- 20:26mine. Uh just just just how
- 20:30terrified I was. Like don't leave. Why
- 20:32are you leaving? You can't leave. I
- 20:34can't be alone.
- 20:35>> And I went up to the window when she
- 20:37finally left because she was like just
- 20:39like ripped the band-aid. Just going to
- 20:40go. She had to go uh to class. And so
- 20:44I'm standing at the window with my face
- 20:45like smashed against the glass like
- 20:47whailing like a three-year-old. I was
- 20:49like Bobby. And she drives away. And and
- 20:52that's what he brought to mind which
- 20:53it's
- 20:54You know, it's not the worst thing I've
- 20:56ever been through, but that's what he
- 20:59brought to mind. And he showed me I had
- 21:01a vision of him where I couldn't see his
- 21:04face, but I saw
- 21:06>> I saw just like the bottom half of him
- 21:08approach me at the glass and like lean
- 21:11down in front of me and put his hands
- 21:13over mine, like over top of me and when
- 21:15I'm like through the glass.
- 21:17>> And I I can't explain what that did. I
- 21:20just know it healed something.
- 21:22>> Yeah. Because as I'm writing my book,
- 21:24which is different than yours, yours is,
- 21:26you know, teaching testimony kind of
- 21:28cocktail. Mine is purely testimonial.
- 21:31Um, I had a revelation that that was the
- 21:35day I received a spirit of anxiety.
- 21:38>> Like that's the day the demon came in.
- 21:41>> Wow.
- 21:42>> And so the demon was cast out. But also
- 21:45Jesus came to show me I wasn't actually
- 21:47alone in that moment. And he wants to
- 21:49heal the wound.
- 21:50>> Yeah. where the demon had access to come
- 21:53through that day.
- 21:54>> Yeah.
- 21:54>> And so, yeah, that was that's always
- 21:57stuck with me and that's the one and
- 21:59only experience I've ever had um with
- 22:03what we're calling inner healing. That
- 22:04was the only time.
- 22:06>> And um yeah, I mean it it was profound.
- 22:11>> And so
- 22:13I guess from there I'll I'll just ask
- 22:15you like why why what has been your
- 22:18experience with that? like do do you
- 22:20have any testimonies of
- 22:22things similar that you that Jesus has
- 22:25led you through and what the fruit of
- 22:26that has been for you?
- 22:28>> Yes. So, I had shadowed a prophet the
- 22:32first time I ever even I I went to like
- 22:35a a ministry intensive years ago and um
- 22:39basically they had let me shadow like
- 22:41the elder prophet teacher because it was
- 22:45at that time where my TikTok was really
- 22:46blowing up and I kind of just like got
- 22:48thrown in I don't want to say thrown
- 22:50because it I wanted to be in ministry
- 22:53but stuff just kind of like took off and
- 22:55I was like I really want more training.
- 22:58um I don't just want to like just sit
- 23:00here and like yap about my ideas. And so
- 23:02the church that I was in like let me do
- 23:05all of that and it was such a blessing.
- 23:06And so I had kind of um followed this
- 23:09elder and prophet like around and
- 23:13watched how he and his wife had like
- 23:15prayed and done um in her healing and
- 23:18led people through and how they would
- 23:19minister to them. And it's not a
- 23:21formula, but that's all he would do is
- 23:22just invite people into like, "Hey,
- 23:24we're gonna let Jesus into this wound,
- 23:27into a memory, a fear, a any area of you
- 23:30that is hurting, we're going to say,
- 23:31"Come Jesus." And like, "What's he
- 23:33saying to you? What is he how is he
- 23:35revealing himself to you?" One girl, she
- 23:37had Jesus appear to her like a lamb. And
- 23:41it had it was just beautiful. And so, it
- 23:44was just um a a really cool thing to
- 23:46see. And he had prayed for me. And I had
- 23:48received some healing from like father
- 23:50wounds that I had um at that time. And
- 23:52so since I learned that I was like okay
- 23:55I don't need somebody to guide me
- 23:58through a a meditation or a visit. I
- 24:00don't need another person there. Like
- 24:02the first time obviously I needed to see
- 24:04how people were were ministering to
- 24:07broken people. Um, but then after that I
- 24:09was like, "Okay, so anytime I'm feeling
- 24:12pain or trauma or sad, like anytime I
- 24:15feel this way, I can just invite Jesus
- 24:18into it." And so I live this. So like
- 24:21>> anytime where I'm really feeling like
- 24:23low or alone or sad, like I invite Jesus
- 24:26with me wherever I am. But there are
- 24:29definitely like specific times where
- 24:31there's been real breakthrough. Like I
- 24:34told you this like two weeks ago I was
- 24:36at church and I started getting
- 24:40triggered in worship. Like I just
- 24:42started having these thoughts um about
- 24:46I don't know like man I really wish that
- 24:50some of my relationships in my life like
- 24:52family and friends and things like that
- 24:54had more depth. Like I was getting upset
- 24:57over stuff in while this was gone and I
- 24:59was like okay pause. Lord, why am I
- 25:02getting triggered right now? Why am I
- 25:04thinking about this? Why am I getting
- 25:05frustrated? Why am I, you know, I I it's
- 25:09really hard to explain, but I told you I
- 25:11felt like there was I was at a capacity
- 25:14for intimacy with people, with
- 25:16vulnerability, with intimacy. Like I
- 25:18could only go and it was deep water, but
- 25:21it wasn't it was like I couldn't go in
- 25:24past my shoulders. And I had wanted to
- 25:26go deeper with the Lord, deeper with
- 25:28friends, deeper with family. Like I am
- 25:31not someone who's content with shallow
- 25:33conversations. I actually get kind of
- 25:35annoyed if I go and I'm hanging out with
- 25:37a friend and we're sitting in a coffee
- 25:39shop and we're talking about the weather
- 25:40and stuff. I'm like, "That's not why I
- 25:42wanted to come and hang out with you
- 25:43today. I want to know how you are. I
- 25:45want to know what God is teaching you."
- 25:46That doesn't um
- 25:48>> like be my spirit, I guess.
- 25:50>> Doesn't fill you up.
- 25:52>> Yeah. And so, um, I have been frustrated
- 25:54with myself of like I want more out of
- 25:57life, out of my relationships, but I
- 26:00literally, it was like I couldn't go
- 26:02past it. Something was holding me back.
- 26:04And so, um, and with the Lord, too.
- 26:06Like, I had been asking for more
- 26:08encounters, for deeper encounters, and
- 26:11he would give me some, and then I would
- 26:14have an amazing encounter with the Lord,
- 26:16and I would just go back to life as
- 26:18normal. And I It was so weird, Angela. I
- 26:21can't explain it. but like I just
- 26:23couldn't go past a certain place. And so
- 26:25I said, "Lord, what's going on? Like
- 26:27Jesus, why is this happening? I don't
- 26:29want this." And he basically revealed to
- 26:31me that I had a fear of intimacy, but I
- 26:34didn't know that I had it because when
- 26:36you're shoulder deep, you think you're
- 26:37in deep, but you're not submerged. You
- 26:40can tell there's a threshold. And so I
- 26:42said, "Okay, you know, fear of maybe
- 26:47being totally seen and totally known and
- 26:50then maybe there's some fear of
- 26:51rejection there or fear I'm going to be
- 26:53disappointed or let down or or whatever
- 26:56all the things that come with fear of
- 26:58intimacy." Um, and so I basically was
- 27:01like, "Jesus, I'm sorry for keeping you
- 27:05at an arms length." I didn't even know
- 27:06that I was doing it. And it just kept
- 27:08felt like I was hitting an invisible
- 27:09wall. Yeah.
- 27:10>> And so I repented for doing that. And I
- 27:14was like, I want all of you, Lord, and I
- 27:16want you to have all of me. I don't want
- 27:18any kind of protective barriers or walls
- 27:21or thresholds or um boundaries that I've
- 27:24put up um of due to fear. And so when I
- 27:28did that um I just like felt his
- 27:31presence engulf me. And like you had
- 27:35mentioned in your thing, it was just
- 27:37this
- 27:38>> healing moment where I could literally
- 27:40just feel like a part of my soul healing
- 27:42and I was crying and then at the same
- 27:45time the worship leader is singing, you
- 27:48know, I'm no longer a slave to fear. I'm
- 27:50a child of God. And then she when this
- 27:52is happening um she stops singing and
- 27:56she starts literally going into like
- 27:59singing deliverance. She's like I break
- 28:00fear of intimacy off of you. like
- 28:03literally exactly and now I'm like
- 28:05weeping and I'm crying. So in that
- 28:07moment like he did heal me and then like
- 28:09literally the minister started like
- 28:11supernaturally word of knowledge
- 28:12breaking things off. So it's not that
- 28:14these things are separate what we're
- 28:16talking about. But we should acknowledge
- 28:18the fact that like if you do get
- 28:20something cast out go and make sure
- 28:22there's something there's a wound that's
- 28:24been healed if that's even there.
- 28:25Sometimes there's not a wound there,
- 28:27right? Um, and so that was an experience
- 28:30I had very recently and I have just felt
- 28:33so much more free and open to share. Um,
- 28:38I sometimes I would not want to talk
- 28:40about hard things or do confrontations.
- 28:43And I'm still, you know, there's layers
- 28:45to all this stuff, but I feel a lot more
- 28:47comfortable like bringing a harder
- 28:50conversation up or a deeper conversation
- 28:52talking more about, hey, this made me
- 28:54feel that way or I don't know, just um
- 28:57less um scared or
- 29:01>> guarded or timid to bring up stuff
- 29:03that's really emotional. Um because
- 29:06sometimes like, "Oh, I don't want to
- 29:07bring all that up or I don't want to
- 29:09>> all of the things we tell ourselves
- 29:12>> to." Yeah,
- 29:13>> I love that. Um while you were talking,
- 29:15I was thinking about how um you know,
- 29:18cuz there's the extreme where people are
- 29:21like, "Christians can't have demons.
- 29:23That's not a demon. That's your flesh."
- 29:25Sort of thing. But then sometimes we
- 29:27make the mistake of swinging to the
- 29:29opposite end of the pendulum where it's
- 29:30like everything's a demon. So the moment
- 29:32you experience opposition in any
- 29:35capacity, it's like, what do I need cast
- 29:38out of me? What demon is this? You know,
- 29:40and that, ironically enough, can
- 29:42actually create an open door to a spirit
- 29:44of fear that can come in because you're
- 29:46like so obsessed with
- 29:48>> what spirits do I need cast out?
- 29:50>> Um, so how do you how do you like
- 29:52discern the difference if it's a demon
- 29:55or if it's just a matter of like a soul
- 29:58fragment or a wound or or whatever?
- 30:02You really need to be self-aware and you
- 30:05really need to be in tune with the Holy
- 30:06Spirit. There are,
- 30:10you know, I don't really have like the
- 30:11perfect answer, but what I can tell you
- 30:13from what's worked with me is like
- 30:14trying to be as self-aware as I can of
- 30:17like I wouldn't have had that amazing
- 30:19encounter and healing with God if I did
- 30:21pause and say, "Why am I getting upset
- 30:23right now? Why am I getting triggered?"
- 30:25And I I didn't just search my own mind.
- 30:27I said, "God, what's going on? Can you
- 30:29reveal to me what's happening? And so
- 30:32that's the best advice I can give
- 30:33someone is if you're feeling triggered,
- 30:36wounded, frustrated, hurt, you're going
- 30:38into a panic attack over something,
- 30:40pause and ask God why. He wants you to
- 30:43heal. I believe if you just quiet down
- 30:46and you pray, you close your like just
- 30:48quiet down and just listen and wait, I
- 30:51think he's going to speak to you and
- 30:52reveal it to you. Why would he hold out
- 30:54on you? You know what I mean? And and
- 30:56the thing is he won't because it will
- 30:58lead to more intimacy with him. Yeah.
- 31:01Right. Because like our wounds keep us
- 31:02guarded and keep us from getting into
- 31:05those deeper places with the Lord. We if
- 31:08we are wounded and we're scared and
- 31:09we're not letting the Lord in, how can
- 31:12we get closer to him, you know?
- 31:14>> Yeah.
- 31:15>> It's wow. There's so many layers that I
- 31:17feel like we could go into. We're
- 31:19already like veering off like where I
- 31:20didn't even think we were going to go,
- 31:22which I love. Um, I love when that
- 31:24happens, especially when we pray the way
- 31:25we did before we sat down.
- 31:27>> Yeah.
- 31:27>> Lord, I want this to go in your
- 31:29direction, not mine, you know? Yeah.
- 31:30>> Kind of thing. Um, I'm thinking about
- 31:32how I have in a in a different way been
- 31:37experiencing sort of the same thing
- 31:39>> with God just in the whole conversation
- 31:42of trusting him and what that looks like
- 31:45and what he is
- 31:46>> seeking from me in this process. You
- 31:49know, like Lord, I want to be closer to
- 31:51you. Lord, I want to know you. Lord, I
- 31:53want more encounters with you. Lord, if
- 31:54there's like if there's like a prophecy
- 31:57thing here, if there's a prophetic thing
- 31:58here, I I I do want that. I I don't want
- 32:01to be bogged down by the trauma I
- 32:05experienced in the new age when those
- 32:06gifts were being perverted. Like, I want
- 32:08all that you have for me. And this has
- 32:10been a very long process. I'm talking
- 32:12like
- 32:14at this point, I've been saved for over
- 32:16four years, but this particular element
- 32:18of our walk has been like 2 years
- 32:20ongoing of just him slowly peeling back
- 32:23the layers of that onion and showing me
- 32:26where I have been afraid or where I have
- 32:29been unwilling to just go deeper and to
- 32:33trust him fully with all that he has for
- 32:36me, whether it be the gifts or whether
- 32:38it be the healing. Um,
- 32:40>> okay. Can I say this? They're they're
- 32:42like it's not they're together.
- 32:45Prophecy, true prophecy flows from
- 32:48intimacy,
- 32:49>> but you can't have intimacy if you're
- 32:51not healed.
- 32:52>> Yes.
- 32:53>> You know, so in the process of healing,
- 32:57like I love we can just talk about
- 32:59healing all day because when you're
- 33:01healing with the Lord and you're
- 33:03inviting him in to the wounded parts of
- 33:05you, he is literally you're building
- 33:08history with God in that moment. like he
- 33:10is showing up. You don't go to a doctor
- 33:14or like a I don't know like what am I
- 33:16trying to say here? You you have
- 33:17confidence and faith in your doctor most
- 33:20people because you've shown up they've
- 33:21helped you before your your doula or
- 33:24whoever like you know what I'm saying
- 33:25you have confidence and trust in them
- 33:27because they've showed up and they've
- 33:29helped you through stuff. And so when we
- 33:31go to God for this and he keeps showing
- 33:33up as a father, as a healer, you're
- 33:35building history with the Lord. You're
- 33:37building intimacy. you're building trust
- 33:39and then okay like there's so many
- 33:42people wounded prophets that are running
- 33:44around and when you are a wounded
- 33:46prophet God gives the gifts without
- 33:48repentance but when you're wounded you
- 33:51could be listening to your own triggers
- 33:53your own trauma your own soul wounded
- 33:56fleshly thought you could be influenced
- 33:58by a spirit because hello when you've
- 34:00got a big open wound it's so easy for
- 34:02stuff to enter through that door um and
- 34:06because trauma is a door you know what I
- 34:08mean It's not it's not always sin.
- 34:09Sometimes it's trauma cuz the devil
- 34:11doesn't fight fair. And so a lot of
- 34:14these wounded prophets are running
- 34:15around and maybe they are hearing a word
- 34:17from the Lord, but it's tainted. Like
- 34:19it's literally like you could be
- 34:21speaking truth, but then like you're
- 34:23like, why am I sensing so much like
- 34:26anger or so much like bitterness like in
- 34:28this prophet? Maybe they are saying
- 34:30something that's accurate, but it's
- 34:31tainted because of their own like
- 34:33unhealed stuff that they have. And so
- 34:35it's so important for us to be healed
- 34:38>> because it's getting filtered through
- 34:39the wound instead of like the
- 34:41restoration and the reconciliation
- 34:43>> exactly
- 34:44>> that Jesus provides.
- 34:46>> I saw this really good podcast clip.
- 34:49Forgive me, I don't remember who it was
- 34:51from, but they said like Jesus even when
- 34:55he was on the cross and even when he was
- 34:57in pain, he didn't act out of that pain.
- 35:01Like he didn't lash out at people. He
- 35:03was still so compassionate, so
- 35:05forgiving, so kind even when he was like
- 35:07being beaten and hung and wounded and
- 35:09all of that. He didn't use that pain as
- 35:13an excuse to like, you know, lash out at
- 35:15people or any of that. And so, I mean,
- 35:17that's that's who we're following, you
- 35:20know, and so get healed.
- 35:21>> Yeah. It's so important,
- 35:24man. And I wanted to I I did want to
- 35:26talk about why why you think just in
- 35:29your own experience um why you think and
- 35:32I can share my thoughts too exnewagers
- 35:34are so afraid of this. Obviously it's
- 35:37the trauma. Um, I guess really more
- 35:40specifically too, why why do you think
- 35:42the devil works so hard to make sure ex
- 35:45newagers are afraid of deliverance and
- 35:47that they are afraid of
- 35:51healing, of inviting God in, of of
- 35:53having visions, of of receiving
- 35:55prophetic images. You know, for me, I I
- 35:59shared that that experience that you led
- 36:03me through. That was the one and only
- 36:05time I ever had something like that
- 36:07happen. And within the recent weeks,
- 36:10I've been questioning like, well, why?
- 36:12Like, God, why is why was that the one
- 36:15time where you took me back into a
- 36:19space? And and he said, well, it's
- 36:20because that's the only time you've
- 36:21really let me. And so, just going back
- 36:23to this whole thing of like trusting
- 36:25him. You have to give him permission
- 36:26>> and giving him permission and allowing
- 36:29him to heal me in in ways that maybe I'm
- 36:34not even aware of yet that that that
- 36:36need to be looked at. But it has to come
- 36:38from the willingness. And what what I
- 36:41see a lot is that there just frankly is
- 36:43an unwillingness from people that come
- 36:45out of this lifestyle because they have
- 36:46spent so much time trying to heal
- 36:48already that now it's like you come to
- 36:50Christ, you expect like your fingers to
- 36:52be snapped and everything's healed.
- 36:54like, well, the cross completed it. Now
- 36:56anything that I struggle with is just
- 36:57because like we're in a fallen world and
- 36:59I'm in my flesh and I have to wait for
- 37:00my glorified body. But I just do not see
- 37:02a precedent for that in scripture where
- 37:04it's like we just now we get saved, we
- 37:06get born again, we get filled with the
- 37:07spirit of God and now we sit on our
- 37:09hands and wait for the bell to ring and
- 37:10then we get to go to heaven someday
- 37:11where we live in perfect peace. It's
- 37:13like what about the whole prayer on
- 37:16earth as it is in heaven, you know, and
- 37:18my my kingdom has come now. The kingdom
- 37:20is upon us and the kingdom is within us
- 37:22when we are born again. And so there is
- 37:24a responsibility. And I think when
- 37:28ex-newagers come to Christ, they
- 37:31inadvertently,
- 37:32subliminally want to allocate that
- 37:36responsibility elsewhere because they're
- 37:39frankly tired. They're they're tired of
- 37:42the responsibility that they took on in
- 37:45the new age, which actually wasn't
- 37:46responsibility because it was a burden.
- 37:49>> And with Christ, we have rest. But we do
- 37:51still have a duty
- 37:54>> to walk out this thing, right? Walk out
- 37:57our salvation.
- 37:58>> Yeah.
- 37:59>> And so, I don't know, I just went on a
- 38:00tangent, but
- 38:01>> it was good
- 38:02>> that that's kind of just what I've
- 38:03witnessed is that there's there's
- 38:06>> there's an unwillingness because they
- 38:08are burdened, they are weary, and then
- 38:09there is a fear because they've been
- 38:11deceived so much that they don't want to
- 38:13hear
- 38:14>> about having demons. They they don't
- 38:16want to hear about inviting Jesus into
- 38:18the wound because they sat in the mirror
- 38:20for four or five hours at a time going
- 38:23through their own inner child healing
- 38:25process like I told you I used to do and
- 38:27it's like well
- 38:30why why would I get saved if there's
- 38:34still more work to be done kind of do
- 38:36you know what I'm saying?
- 38:37>> Absolutely.
- 38:37>> Yeah. I'm going to take my shoes off and
- 38:39I'm going to get comfortable because
- 38:40this we're we're going we're diving in
- 38:42deep right now and I love it. the Okay,
- 38:45so the first thing that you have to do
- 38:47is you have to be honest with yourself.
- 38:50I I will never forget one time I posted
- 38:54on my story years ago and I said if
- 38:57there is a counterfeit that means there
- 39:00is an authentic and you saw that and
- 39:02that started making you start thinking
- 39:05about all of this stuff because you
- 39:06didn't believe in this stuff and you
- 39:09actually received healing and
- 39:11breakthrough and more of God because you
- 39:13were willing to your theology could be
- 39:16wrong. you were willing to look at it
- 39:18and be real with yourself and be like if
- 39:20I what God's word says is true. This it
- 39:24doesn't matter what my opinions are.
- 39:26This is the word of God. And if it says
- 39:29if the word says that Jesus died for my
- 39:32healing, that means he died for my
- 39:33healing. If you know what I mean, if
- 39:35Jesus casted out demons, that means that
- 39:37there like you have to take it for what
- 39:40it is. And you can't be so offended and
- 39:42scared of being wrong. We're all wrong
- 39:45about something. I can tell you right
- 39:46now, there's no way that all of us are
- 39:48100% right about all of our opinions
- 39:50about God. And so, you have to be honest
- 39:52with yourself and say, "Okay, the moment
- 39:55I got saved, did all of my trauma and
- 39:57pain magically disappear?
- 39:59>> Did all of the struggles that I had, the
- 40:01addictions that I had, did everything
- 40:02that I was struggling with disappear?" I
- 40:05can probably bet for every single person
- 40:07it's going to be known. Sometimes some
- 40:09stuff can break off like you got
- 40:11delivered from depression, but that not
- 40:13every single thing of your life was just
- 40:15healed and made whole. That doesn't mean
- 40:17that God is unwilling or that God can't
- 40:19or that you are meant to suffer your
- 40:21whole life here on earth until we go to
- 40:24heaven.
- 40:24>> And so, you got to be real and you have
- 40:26to be honest with yourself and say,
- 40:27"Okay, if I have triggers and I have
- 40:30wounds and I have trauma and I have,
- 40:32let's say, a pornography addiction, I
- 40:35know that this is not of God. I know
- 40:37that God doesn't want me to do this. I
- 40:38can't stop. Kind of like the place that
- 40:40you were in when when we first started
- 40:42hanging out and you were like you were
- 40:44sick of the oppression and the stuff
- 40:46that you were living in and you were
- 40:47like, I've got to just see if this
- 40:49deliverance thing is real. You just have
- 40:51to be real with yourself and say, "Do I
- 40:53care more about my getting free and my
- 40:56freedom and getting more of God? Do I
- 40:58love God more than I love my own
- 41:00opinions? Or am I going to be a slave to
- 41:02my own theology and put God in a box and
- 41:06live a life in sin and pain and sickness
- 41:09because, you know, I'm I'm too scared of
- 41:12touching something. And
- 41:14>> I don't know, I'm getting all fired up.
- 41:16I love it.
- 41:16>> This is coming from a place of love,
- 41:18though. Love like I I would look at my
- 41:21younger sisters if they were doing this
- 41:22and be like, I love you. I want you to
- 41:24just be honest with yourself because I
- 41:27want you to be healed. I don't want you
- 41:28to live in pain because that word soo we
- 41:31talk about it with deliverance but soo
- 41:33that word is the Greek for saved when
- 41:36they said you know his he will come and
- 41:38he will save and deliver and all this
- 41:40stuff soo means yes salvation right but
- 41:43deliverance and healing and healing let
- 41:47me look at my notes here I had some
- 41:48scriptures that I wanted to read about
- 41:51healing because you because if you're
- 41:54against this you need to just listen to
- 41:56the word of God Let the scripture
- 41:58influence your opinion. You know what?
- 42:00If nobody has scripture to back up what
- 42:02they're saying, then you can throw it
- 42:03out.
- 42:03>> Yeah.
- 42:04>> Um Psalm 23, he restores my soul. Isaiah
- 42:0753:4, he bore our griefs and carried our
- 42:10sorrows. That's not physical pain. Grief
- 42:14and sorrow is emotional, soul wounding
- 42:16pain. Everybody goes through grief and
- 42:18sorrow. So he carried them and he died
- 42:21for this healing. The Lord is close to
- 42:23the brokenhearted.
- 42:25And then um so we see that the spirit
- 42:28and soul uh it can be crushed, it can be
- 42:30broken. Um what was the other scripture?
- 42:33I think that was the one that I had
- 42:35there. Yeah. About grief and sorrow. And
- 42:37so this is what Jesus died to heal you
- 42:40from. You cannot give me an argument
- 42:43that says do not invite Jesus into your
- 42:46pain and your grief and your sorrow.
- 42:48That that's counter-Christian. Why would
- 42:51we ever? So, you know, I just want
- 42:53everybody to have to understand that
- 42:56they have this available to them. You
- 42:57don't need to go and put all of your
- 42:59hope in the psychologist and the
- 43:00therapist. They're great. I always
- 43:02recommend people to Christian counseling
- 43:04when they need it. But you're not going
- 43:06to fix this going to a secular
- 43:09um psych therapist without Jesus being
- 43:13involved. Yeah. You know.
- 43:14>> Yeah. Because psychological tools can
- 43:17modify behavior and can change behavior
- 43:20and can even,
- 43:22>> you know, change you in a lot of ways by
- 43:25applying some of the things that
- 43:28scripture
- 43:29>> has known long before modern psychology
- 43:32caught up to it. Right? Yep. So the
- 43:34psychological tools they are great and
- 43:37they are necessary
- 43:40but transformation
- 43:42comes from the spirit of God comes from
- 43:45the same spirit living on the inside of
- 43:47you that raised Christ from the dead.
- 43:49Like
- 43:49>> yes
- 43:50>> that that's the thing. And I love what
- 43:52you're talking about healing in like
- 43:53every capacity because
- 43:55>> I did a video on this like a while ago
- 43:57on like the the the blood of Jesus and
- 44:00and kind of [clears throat] this the
- 44:01stops he took even before the cross.
- 44:04>> Yeah.
- 44:04>> Right. Cuz it's like the realm of not
- 44:06only the spirit like the cross took care
- 44:08of the spirit and the healing that was
- 44:10necessary for the spirit. the
- 44:14the blood that shed in the garden of
- 44:17Gethsemane when he cried when he was
- 44:20under such physiological distress and he
- 44:23wept and he sweat blood that's like his
- 44:27blood was literally being shed for your
- 44:29physical distress his crown of thorns
- 44:32pressing into his head.
- 44:34>> Wow.
- 44:34>> So that you could be given a crown of
- 44:37righteousness instead. you wouldn't have
- 44:38to bear that crown of thorns with those
- 44:40tormenting thoughts and that suffering,
- 44:43you know, like and obviously there's
- 44:45suffering for Christ's sake. We are
- 44:47people think when we talk about this
- 44:48stuff, we're like, "Oh, you should never
- 44:50walk through trials or tribulations."
- 44:52It's like, no, the Bible is so explicit
- 44:54that we are going to endure trials and
- 44:56tribulations. But there is a difference
- 44:59in suffering for the sake of suffering
- 45:01versus suffering for Christ's sake. And
- 45:03when you just suffer,
- 45:06you know, incessantly
- 45:08>> kind of in spite of God, that's just
- 45:11irresponsible. Like going back to the
- 45:13whole thing of of diverting the
- 45:15responsibility off of yourself and the
- 45:17the way that you kind of have to
- 45:19participate now in your sanctification
- 45:21process and the willingness and the
- 45:23humility and all these aspects,
- 45:25>> it is irresponsible to suffer for the
- 45:28sake of suffering when Christ took on
- 45:30your suffering. I want to say this
- 45:33really gently, but there's a lot of
- 45:35people who their identity is in being a
- 45:38victim or suffering there. It gets all
- 45:42wrapped up in that and they I don't know
- 45:44find purpose, find I don't I don't know
- 45:47what it is. like it like itches a
- 45:50scratch of like they have this victim
- 45:52mindset and it's always something going
- 45:54on and they're a martyr and they're
- 45:56suffering and the and the and these are
- 46:00the cases where therapy is good. Like if
- 46:02you go to a Christian counselor, you can
- 46:04go and you can sit down and you can
- 46:05recognize these patterns in the first
- 46:07place. Like you were saying, like
- 46:08there's a difference between suffering
- 46:11for Christ's sake and suffering with him
- 46:14than just like suffering in your
- 46:16identities and being a person who is
- 46:18suffering and something's always going
- 46:19wrong that you're not supposed to be
- 46:21living from that place of defeat and
- 46:23self-pity and suffering. Um, we all go
- 46:26through and this is again why this
- 46:27conversation is important because we
- 46:29will all go through some kind of trauma
- 46:31at some point in our life and and you
- 46:33probably will in your future. A loved
- 46:34one may pass away. Who knows what will
- 46:36happen, but we all go through it. And
- 46:38so,
- 46:39>> basically, it's inviting Jesus in and
- 46:43walking with him through it. That's
- 46:45really what we're getting at. And so,
- 46:46it's like, don't suffer apart from him.
- 46:49But, you know, the Lord is my shepherd.
- 46:51You know, he even though I go through
- 46:53the valley of the shadow of death, I
- 46:54will fear no evil. Why? Because he's the
- 46:57shepherd. He's leading you through it.
- 46:58You're not alone with him. And so,
- 47:00that's really the difference of of what
- 47:03we're talking about here.
- 47:04>> Yeah. And he also walks you out of it,
- 47:06>> you know, like people quote that verse a
- 47:08lot as like, I'm just in this season,
- 47:10blah blah blah, but it's like he walks
- 47:12you through the valley and he and he
- 47:14leads you
- 47:15>> to lie beside the green pastures. That's
- 47:17where you get to rest. Like you don't
- 47:19get to rest in the valley. You're
- 47:20walking through it because you're going
- 47:22through it. Sometimes yes, you have to
- 47:24go through to get through kind of thing.
- 47:26But ultimately the goal is the pasture.
- 47:29>> You know what I'm saying? Al I would say
- 47:31ultimately the goal is
- 47:33now through all of it. Every valley,
- 47:36every p everywhere we going is just
- 47:38going with him because in that process
- 47:40like we're that's the sanctification.
- 47:42We're becoming more like him. We get to
- 47:44know him the most in our suffering but
- 47:47we don't stay there. You know that's so
- 47:49good. It's like all of that like the
- 47:51suffering that crushing will make us
- 47:54more like Jesus even than sometimes
- 47:56lying in the in the pastures and by the
- 47:59streams and but it's all in seasons and
- 48:01times. You know what I mean? Like
- 48:03>> it's just our walk with the Lord really
- 48:05that that Psalm 23 and it's so healing.
- 48:08>> Yeah. I also think a lot of this
- 48:09misunderstanding with the things that
- 48:11we're talking about come from just a
- 48:13complete honestly negligence of
- 48:15spiritual anatomy. like you don't get
- 48:18that there's a difference between spirit
- 48:20and soul.
- 48:21>> So good.
- 48:21>> And that was something that I I
- 48:23struggled with. I really
- 48:25>> kind of use the two interchangeably even
- 48:27when I was a new age, right? Like just
- 48:29spirit, soul, like it's just
- 48:31>> but it's still a debate within
- 48:33Christianity and it's it's a respectable
- 48:36debate. We but we believe that there is
- 48:38a difference.
- 48:38>> Yeah. I 100% believe and I believe
- 48:40there's a biblical precedent for it. I
- 48:42mean even in the account of creation
- 48:44like God the the words are different
- 48:47that he uses like the Hebrew words are
- 48:49different that man's flesh was made out
- 48:52of the dirt and God breathed his spirit
- 48:56into man to create the soul. So that's
- 48:59like one two three you know like so your
- 49:02spirit is what animates your soul which
- 49:05is your mind will and emotions. So apart
- 49:08from Christ, your spirit's dead. You're
- 49:11cut off from the source of life and love
- 49:14and truth. And so you're just like
- 49:17animated through through death and
- 49:19through sin and through um the absence
- 49:24of your creator essentially. But then
- 49:26when you're born again, now your soul,
- 49:29your mind, will, and emotions can be
- 49:31animated through life in his original
- 49:33design, which he said was good by the
- 49:35way. And so that's where it now becomes
- 49:38possible. All the things you may have
- 49:41tried in new age,
- 49:42>> the inner healing, like the the the
- 49:45visualizations, whatever, like all the
- 49:47things you tried, it wasn't it was being
- 49:51sourced incorrectly, even if the tools
- 49:53were legitimate, even if the spiritual
- 49:55principles were legitimate. Now you
- 49:57actually have a spirit that has been
- 49:59made new, resurrected, and full of his
- 50:02life. And you are connected to him. And
- 50:04it's because of his spirit that animates
- 50:08your mind, will, and emotions that you
- 50:09actually have the propensity to heal
- 50:11from the trauma, to get those demons
- 50:13cast out. And so like deliverance and
- 50:17healing,
- 50:18it's not just like for a Christian. I
- 50:21would say it's like the right of a
- 50:24Christian. That's good. I love that. It
- 50:26is the right. We should be walking in
- 50:28it. They those tools didn't work in the
- 50:31new age because you had no atonement.
- 50:34You had nobody who was died and beaten
- 50:36and crushed and bore. Literally, it says
- 50:39that he was whipped so that we could be
- 50:41made whole. There is no healing if there
- 50:44was no sacrifice. If there was no
- 50:46Passover lamb, Passover is coming up. I
- 50:49love the the shadow of that. The the the
- 50:52lamb, you know what I mean? um when it
- 50:54when they were in Egypt and the death
- 50:57angel passed over the door, it's because
- 50:58they sacrificed the lamb. They put the
- 51:00blood of the lamb. That was a picture of
- 51:02Jesus. And so, because this blood wasn't
- 51:05shed for you, you didn't receive that
- 51:07when you were a new age. You were trying
- 51:08to do it through yourself, through
- 51:11demons, through all these different
- 51:12things. And so, of course, it didn't
- 51:13work. It can't work apart from the lamb.
- 51:16It's only his blood that has the power
- 51:18to do these things. So don't be afraid
- 51:21to come to the source of life and
- 51:23healing of to Jesus because all of the
- 51:26other methods that you tried apart from
- 51:28him didn't work. Of course they didn't
- 51:30work.
- 51:30>> Yeah. Of course they didn't work. Yeah.
- 51:33And this has been actually really
- 51:34[clears throat] healing for me in this
- 51:36whole process of
- 51:37>> I told you this recently in our text. So
- 51:39a lot of our texts are just coming to
- 51:41life in this conversation. But
- 51:42>> people are getting a glimpse in what our
- 51:44thread looks like. I um it's been
- 51:47healing for me to recognize you know
- 51:50scientifically
- 51:52psychologically
- 51:54all the stuff not all the stuff but you
- 51:56know a lot of the the principles and and
- 51:58the ideologies and the practices that I
- 52:00was implementing you know obviously not
- 52:02like divination but just some of the the
- 52:04things like I I was psychology tools
- 52:07>> right I was tapping into biblical
- 52:09principles like mind renewal like I
- 52:12understood that
- 52:14>> on a soul level um on a world
- 52:17>> absent of atonement as you just said I
- 52:19understood these principles and so I was
- 52:22just the the frustration would just
- 52:24compound because I I couldn't it did not
- 52:27work for me beyond you want to talk
- 52:29about the gunshot wound thing I love
- 52:31that analogy you used also one of my
- 52:33analogies where I say the new age is a
- 52:35band-aid on a gunshot wound so I love
- 52:37how those analogies play together
- 52:39>> um
- 52:39>> it is a band yeah I imagine freaking all
- 52:42all that's going on and you're putting a
- 52:44band-aid Yeah, exactly what I was going
- 52:46to do.
- 52:46>> So now it's been just so healing for me
- 52:49to recognize like okay, I wasn't
- 52:51completely like
- 52:54[laughter]
- 52:55>> I have to be careful with what I say.
- 52:56>> I was literally thinking you need to be
- 52:58careful.
- 52:58>> I wasn't I wasn't off track in this
- 53:01sense of understanding
- 53:05spiritual law or spiritual principles or
- 53:08like the application of what those
- 53:09things could produce.
- 53:11>> Yeah. like manifesting works,
- 53:13>> right?
- 53:14>> But it's not the right way.
- 53:15>> So, I wasn't What I'm trying to say is
- 53:17it's just been healing for me to to
- 53:19discover that I wasn't completely
- 53:24cuckoo bananas. Even though I was
- 53:27because because what what it's what it's
- 53:29helped me do is is is trust God and say
- 53:32like, "Oh,
- 53:33>> that's good. Okay, if I could figure
- 53:35that out like on my own, so to speak,
- 53:38then imagine if I just allow myself or
- 53:42really allow you to guide me through
- 53:46that process your way
- 53:48>> as opposed to Yeah. As opposed to the
- 53:50opposite, which is there is no healing.
- 53:53There is no deliverance there. You know
- 53:54what? You're saying at least that I was
- 53:57like
- 53:58>> wrong, but like at least there's some
- 53:59kind of healing that's available to me.
- 54:01And
- 54:02>> yeah.
- 54:02>> Yeah. No, I totally get that and I I see
- 54:05why he let me go through everything I
- 54:07went through and and you know traverse
- 54:10the depths of the counterfeits. Um
- 54:13because to to see the authentic
- 54:17is it's incredible. Like to see the way
- 54:21he designed everything
- 54:23to truly not function apart from him.
- 54:26That's really what I'm getting at
- 54:27>> is that
- 54:29>> all the tools, the the the mind renewal,
- 54:32all that stuff like that those are great
- 54:33and and they work even apart from him,
- 54:35but they're not meant to.
- 54:37>> They're only they're only meant to work
- 54:39sustainably within him.
- 54:42>> Um I wanted I wanted to ask you why
- 54:46because obviously we both believe this.
- 54:48why you believe it is necessary, I'll
- 54:51just use the word necessary for
- 54:53exnewagers to go through deliverance and
- 54:58inner healing and and would you say that
- 55:01I know that there's not like necessarily
- 55:02a formula because God isn't like a
- 55:04formula. Um, but maybe is there like a
- 55:07framework that that you have at least
- 55:10witnessed through your own ministry that
- 55:12maybe like works more optimally
- 55:16>> like deliverance first in her healing,
- 55:17you know, kind of thing.
- 55:19>> Yes. So, I definitely say it's necessary
- 55:23to go through deliverance and inner
- 55:24healing
- 55:25>> if you're out of the new age, but also
- 55:27as a Christian just in general because
- 55:30we all have trauma
- 55:33>> at some point in our life.
- 55:36>> A little trauma, a lot of trauma, you
- 55:38know, everybody is different, but we all
- 55:41have the same Jesus and he just wants us
- 55:43to be healed.
- 55:44>> Yes. Um, and so we already established
- 55:48like a lot of times these unclean
- 55:50spirits want to sneak in through trauma,
- 55:52right? And so that's why it's necessary,
- 55:55I think, to get both. Um, and then
- 55:58there's just so much freedom, like the
- 56:00fruit of my life and so many thousands
- 56:03of other people that have, you know,
- 56:05emailed me or commented on videos or,
- 56:08you know, seeing the fruit of your
- 56:09ministry, different friends that we
- 56:11have, Isaiah, and things like that. Like
- 56:13there's just so much good fruit and
- 56:15testimony out there of people that we
- 56:17know and in ministry that we've seen
- 56:19that this is just the real deal. I mean,
- 56:22I was delivered as a Christian from
- 56:24anxiety, from depression, from a spirit
- 56:27of death, from rejection. I mean, so
- 56:30many things, both of us, so many things.
- 56:32And so, um, you know, I I there's a
- 56:35reason why the scripture says
- 56:36deliverance is the children's bread. And
- 56:39I I've talked to you about this. Like
- 56:41the thing that I is grieving me right
- 56:45now is that a lot of deliverance
- 56:47ministers, they have the deliverance,
- 56:50but they don't sometimes they don't even
- 56:52address like the healing. And I really
- 56:55think that I don't even want to say it's
- 56:57a formula of like do the healing first
- 57:00and then deliver or the order. It's that
- 57:02they I believe they need to be happening
- 57:04side by side. Doesn't matter the order
- 57:06that they look like. I I always want to
- 57:08be led by the Holy Spirit. If I'm doing
- 57:10a deliverance on somebody and the Holy
- 57:13Spirit will say, "Okay, they need inner
- 57:15healing from this or that or or ask
- 57:18them, you know, pray for healing." I
- 57:20usually most of the time whenever I'm
- 57:22someone asks you for deliverance, end up
- 57:24praying healing stuff over them, too.
- 57:26Because to me, it just doesn't make
- 57:28sense. What kind of when you the same
- 57:30analogy we use, what kind of doctor
- 57:31would just take out the bullet but not
- 57:34stitch you back up together? That's just
- 57:36not I don't believe that's the heart of
- 57:38God. And it doesn't need to happen in
- 57:39the same session. And maybe if you're a
- 57:41deliverance minister and you know
- 57:42nothing about this like it's time to get
- 57:45into the word and you know maybe go to a
- 57:48workshop or a conference or a
- 57:50disciplehip or talk start reading what
- 57:52the Bible says about these things. Um,
- 57:55but at the very least, if you are in
- 57:57deliverance ministry, I would say please
- 57:59like at least have a spiritfilled
- 58:01therapist, counselor, people who do
- 58:03inner healing to at least send the
- 58:05people to if you guys aren't equipped to
- 58:07do it because it's God is interested in
- 58:11the holistic healing of us, right? Soo
- 58:14is salvation, healing, and deliverance.
- 58:17All of those things together is
- 58:19important, and it's part of our
- 58:20inheritance. Like you said, it's part of
- 58:22our birthright as Christians. We've been
- 58:24born again and we don't have to walk
- 58:27around wounded and triggered and
- 58:29demonized and in pain. And it's like God
- 58:32wants to see us running. He we if we
- 58:34want to be more like Jesus, he wasn't
- 58:36walking around triggered and in pain and
- 58:38demonized. Like that's who we are, you
- 58:42know, wanting to be mold and shaped and
- 58:44like I love that scripture of like we're
- 58:47clay in the potter's hands. That's part
- 58:49of being molded by him. You know, who
- 58:51wants to walk around wounded?
- 58:53>> Yeah.
- 58:53>> I don't know.
- 58:54>> Yeah.
- 58:54>> Yeah. I love what you just said that
- 58:56like healing is your birthright. Brought
- 58:58me back.
- 58:59>> Um
- 59:00I that was one of my like slogans
- 59:05>> like when I was a new age that like
- 59:07healing is your birthright. So that's
- 59:08going back to what I was saying.
- 59:10>> But you weren't like born again.
- 59:12>> I wasn't born again. Healing is your
- 59:13birthright once you're born again, you
- 59:15know? So it's just wow. That's just
- 59:17that's insane. Um, and I think that's
- 59:20wow that's so revoly cuz you know you
- 59:22you get kind of like into into that
- 59:24mindset in the new age and again it's
- 59:26like you're saying all these things that
- 59:28are true but they're only true under the
- 59:30framework of um being born again and
- 59:34then you feel so guilty for that that
- 59:36you just like throw everything away once
- 59:38you actually are born again and you have
- 59:41a right to these things. I know. I mean,
- 59:44I know that's from my own experience
- 59:45that I just felt so guilty and full of
- 59:49so much shame for
- 59:52the way that I had been living in
- 59:54rebellion without even realizing it.
- 59:56>> For so long.
- 59:57>> Yeah.
- 59:57>> And you just you don't want to you don't
- 59:59even want to like touch anything that
- 1:00:00looks even remotely like that again.
- 1:00:03>> That's that's so sad and that's so
- 1:00:05profound and I think there's so many
- 1:00:07people that are there. But it's like
- 1:00:09once you really get into your word and
- 1:00:11you really read what it says, like I
- 1:00:13that night that me and you sat down and
- 1:00:16we just literally opened the Bible and
- 1:00:18we just went through all the Bible
- 1:00:19verses about deliverance and it was like
- 1:00:21all the extra stuff that was like all
- 1:00:23the like melted away
- 1:00:25>> and then you could just see like no this
- 1:00:27is available for me and that was like
- 1:00:30>> so beautiful to me. It's the same like
- 1:00:31with anything that we believe, whatever
- 1:00:33it is.
- 1:00:34>> And it's like, man, if you have that
- 1:00:36feeling, renounce the guilt, renounce
- 1:00:39the shame, the disappointment. A lot of
- 1:00:41it is like, I'm disappointed. I tried to
- 1:00:43heal so much on my own, and then you
- 1:00:45don't want to be disappointed again.
- 1:00:47Well, why do you feel that way? You
- 1:00:49don't trust God.
- 1:00:50>> He's not going to let you down. He's not
- 1:00:52going to disappoint you. So, it's like
- 1:00:54really getting at the root of these
- 1:00:56things. And that's with with Jesus and
- 1:00:58saying, "Okay, Jesus, I'm scared. that
- 1:01:00I'm disappointed that if I go to you
- 1:01:03that I'm you're not going to heal me. Of
- 1:01:05course, that's not going to happen. And
- 1:01:07just let him minister to you and like
- 1:01:08uproot that disappointment, that fear of
- 1:01:11rejection, whatever it is.
- 1:01:13>> That's really so sad. I never considered
- 1:01:16even that aspect of it that you're just
- 1:01:17>> There's Christians who who they've been
- 1:01:20praying for healing for years and
- 1:01:22they're too they're disappointed.
- 1:01:24They've been let down and they don't
- 1:01:25even want to go to God and ask for
- 1:01:26healing. This isn't even a new age
- 1:01:28thing. like I rebelled because I was
- 1:01:29disappointed in God. Like we the church
- 1:01:33needs to get in healing from that,
- 1:01:35>> you know.
- 1:01:35>> Yeah. Right.
- 1:01:36>> Yeah. And I I think too, you know, how
- 1:01:39so many people that come out of um the
- 1:01:43occult then,
- 1:01:45as we've talked about many many times,
- 1:01:47even throughout this video, they they
- 1:01:48just go like straight to the
- 1:01:50cessationism doctrine and and then their
- 1:01:53entire ministry becomes about not what
- 1:01:56Jesus is doing, but what everyone else
- 1:01:58is what they believe doing wrong in
- 1:02:00Jesus' name.
- 1:02:02>> Okay. Just Pharisee.
- 1:02:03>> Yeah.
- 1:02:04>> Just Pharisee. Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:02:05>> But the root of even that
- 1:02:08is it's like even beyond Pharisee. It's
- 1:02:11even beyond whatever demons they need to
- 1:02:14be delivered from. It does come from the
- 1:02:16thing you just mentioned is like the the
- 1:02:18the fear of disappointment of
- 1:02:22what happens if I actually let myself go
- 1:02:25there with God. Now,
- 1:02:28>> it very it could it very well could be
- 1:02:30that route. Absolutely. Mhm.
- 1:02:32>> which they need inner healing for,
- 1:02:34>> but they're like, "No, that's demonic,
- 1:02:36and you're all demonic." And
- 1:02:38>> how is how is asking Jesus to heal a
- 1:02:41wound? Like we said, we're throwing out
- 1:02:43all of the connotations. I don't know
- 1:02:45where this movement started. I didn't
- 1:02:47study under movement. Literally, for the
- 1:02:49context of this is Jesus, I'm feeling
- 1:02:52rejected. Why do I feel this way? Come
- 1:02:55reveal yourself to me. Minister and heal
- 1:02:57this. All it is.
- 1:02:58>> Yeah. It's really good. I remember
- 1:03:00something you said to me too at first.
- 1:03:03Um cuz you know we we did we like shared
- 1:03:07a mutual friend that told us this was
- 1:03:08like evil stuff. And I remember you
- 1:03:11saying that uh all throughout the Bible,
- 1:03:15[snorts] quite literally all throughout
- 1:03:16the Bible, all we see are people having
- 1:03:19encounters and particularly having like
- 1:03:22visions.
- 1:03:24And so to have a a visualization
- 1:03:28or invite Jesus to give you a a
- 1:03:31visualization
- 1:03:33of like a time in your life where you
- 1:03:37were met with trauma where a door was
- 1:03:38open, whatever the case is. Um even like
- 1:03:42a a sin moment that that opened a door
- 1:03:44to a demon, whatever
- 1:03:48that how can that be evil,
- 1:03:50>> right?
- 1:03:51>> How can it be evil?
- 1:03:52>> Test the spirit. test the fruit. That's
- 1:03:54how you will know. It's It's really that
- 1:03:57simple. Like we
- 1:03:59How can you believe be a Christian and
- 1:04:01believe in like a virgin birth,
- 1:04:03immaculate conception, miracles, feeding
- 1:04:05the 5,000, walking on water, and you're
- 1:04:07afraid of a vision? It you know what I
- 1:04:10mean? Like we just we have to make
- 1:04:12everything so logical and everything is
- 1:04:14so fear-based. But that's why the Bible
- 1:04:17says, "Okay, test the spirit. Examine
- 1:04:20the fruit. If it's of God, like you will
- 1:04:22see the godly fruit and like what your
- 1:04:25experience, what I experienced was
- 1:04:27healing, freedom, and good fruit. There
- 1:04:29are people who do have weird encounters
- 1:04:31and things that are we're not, you know
- 1:04:33what I mean? It's just but when you
- 1:04:35start walking in the supernatural like
- 1:04:37that stuff's going to happen. Like I
- 1:04:38think about Acts 16:16. They're Paul is
- 1:04:40going around, they're casting out
- 1:04:42demons, they're healing the sick,
- 1:04:43they're doing all and the woman with the
- 1:04:45spirit of python comes and she's preach
- 1:04:47and what she's saying is true, but she
- 1:04:49has a spirit of divination. It's just
- 1:04:50the spiritual realm is just there's
- 1:04:53angels, there's demons, there's good and
- 1:04:54there's bad. And so,
- 1:04:56>> I mean, the Bible gives us the framework
- 1:04:58on how to operate and navigate all of
- 1:04:59that.
- 1:05:00>> Yeah. I thank God, too, cuz I I know I
- 1:05:02know people have been like seriously
- 1:05:04hurt by like those kind of
- 1:05:08warlocky kind of, you know, Christian
- 1:05:10spheres.
- 1:05:11>> And I know that's a thing, but it's
- 1:05:13real.
- 1:05:14>> Yeah. Um, so I don't ever like want to
- 1:05:16speak insensitively to that because I
- 1:05:18know that it has it has produced even
- 1:05:22even more fear into this because now
- 1:05:25that that is actually new age
- 1:05:26infiltrating the church, right? So I
- 1:05:28just feel blessed because I feel like
- 1:05:30everyone that God has put in my
- 1:05:32immediate c well in my immediate circle
- 1:05:34I'll say right now at this time in my
- 1:05:36life
- 1:05:37>> um has just like led me very well like
- 1:05:40like you like TJ like Justin like really
- 1:05:43pure
- 1:05:45you know and um so it's allowed me to
- 1:05:48experience the the power of God and the
- 1:05:51demonstration of his kingdom without
- 1:05:53having to worry about any of that other
- 1:05:55kind of stuff. So praise the Lord for
- 1:05:56that. I know that's not everyone's
- 1:05:58story, but
- 1:05:58>> but you know, let that encourage you to
- 1:06:01seek out like spiritfilled, healthy
- 1:06:03churches.
- 1:06:04>> Good.
- 1:06:04>> And, you know, I've been to different
- 1:06:07churches and I've experienced that. And
- 1:06:09so, it's it's, you know, just pray about
- 1:06:11it and ask God if you're looking for
- 1:06:13that. And I believe he'll he'll give it
- 1:06:15to you guys.
- 1:06:17>> Well, this was I feel like we could just
- 1:06:18keep talking and talking, but I don't
- 1:06:19want to start going in circles. Let's
- 1:06:21close out. I'd like for you to pray if
- 1:06:23you don't mind, but first let people
- 1:06:25know um where they can find you and let
- 1:06:30them know
- 1:06:32where they can get your book and who
- 1:06:34this is really appropriate for.
- 1:06:36>> Awesome. Okay, cool. Yeah, you can find
- 1:06:38me u my name is Taylor Scrogggins on all
- 1:06:41social media is Taylor official and then
- 1:06:44the book is available everywhere where
- 1:06:46books are sold online, Amazon, Barnes &
- 1:06:48Noble, Target. Um and then yeah would
- 1:06:52love to pray. Um and oh and the book is
- 1:06:55appropriate. It's it's good for
- 1:06:56believers and non-believers um who are
- 1:06:59in the new age. It is a lot of like
- 1:07:02solid biblical teaching. A witch could
- 1:07:05pick up that book and read it and
- 1:07:07understand salvation, get filled with
- 1:07:09the Holy Spirit, learn how to do
- 1:07:11deliverance, and then get delivered from
- 1:07:13all any open doors that they open during
- 1:07:15witchcraft. And then it's great for
- 1:07:17believers because it exposes all of
- 1:07:19these dark practices kind of like what
- 1:07:22you talk about on your podcast, what I
- 1:07:24talk about on mine. Um, and then it has
- 1:07:26deliverance prayers at the end of all of
- 1:07:28the chapters that are specific. So like
- 1:07:30there's a chapter about yoga. So if
- 1:07:32you've ever done yoga, pray that prayer
- 1:07:34over yourself. Or if you are wanting to
- 1:07:36learn more about deliverance, it'll
- 1:07:38teach you how to take someone through
- 1:07:40deliverance who has been involved in
- 1:07:41yoga. So it's good for both the believer
- 1:07:44and the non-believer. Um, yeah. Let's
- 1:07:46pray. Do you have anything that you
- 1:07:48wanted to
- 1:07:49>> Um, I think just because we've talked so
- 1:07:51much about healing, just wherever you
- 1:07:53feel like the Lord is leading.
- 1:07:55>> Okay.
- 1:07:55>> Like pray general healing over over the
- 1:07:58audience. Maybe you do want to walk
- 1:07:59through some sort of visualiz whatever
- 1:08:02you feel. I don't want to put you on the
- 1:08:03spot, but whatever you feel like led to
- 1:08:05do.
- 1:08:05>> Lord, thank you so much.
- 1:08:08Thank you for Angela. Thank you for
- 1:08:10Mike. Thank you for their family. Thank
- 1:08:12you for heaven and healing. God, I thank
- 1:08:14you um just for the vision and the dream
- 1:08:17and all of the people that you've
- 1:08:19brought here and most importantly like
- 1:08:21that they've been led to just drink
- 1:08:23from, you know, the living water, the
- 1:08:27well, Jesus, you and that this is a
- 1:08:29place of refreshment for so many people
- 1:08:31of healing and refreshment. So, I just
- 1:08:33thank you, Lord, for that. Lord, I just
- 1:08:36pray for every person who is listening
- 1:08:38right now. Holy Spirit, come. I ask that
- 1:08:41you would just refresh them. I ask that
- 1:08:44you would fill them up. I ask that you
- 1:08:47would even just baptize them aresh right
- 1:08:49now in the Holy Spirit and fire. I just
- 1:08:53pray that you would just wash over them
- 1:08:55with your love, with your healing right
- 1:08:57now. And I just want to invite you into
- 1:09:00a moment where maybe there's an area in
- 1:09:04your life, in your heart where you've
- 1:09:05been crushed, where you've been wounded.
- 1:09:07Um where you really need healing from
- 1:09:10the Lord. I think there's probably some
- 1:09:13people who need healing from rejection,
- 1:09:15from abandonment, and maybe you've been
- 1:09:18delivered from that, but there's still a
- 1:09:20wound there because we've never actually
- 1:09:23sat and said, "Jesus, come in and heal
- 1:09:25this place where rejection broke my
- 1:09:27heart." this memory where this thing
- 1:09:29traumatized me or any lies that I've
- 1:09:31come into agreement about myself that
- 1:09:33I'm unlovable. And we're just gonna pray
- 1:09:36right now and we're gonna say, "Jesus,
- 1:09:38I'm not going to protect my own heart
- 1:09:40anymore. I come out of agreement with
- 1:09:42rejection. I come out of agreement with
- 1:09:44the lies that, you know, no one will
- 1:09:47want me. If I open up or if I make
- 1:09:50myself vulnerable, I'm going to be
- 1:09:51rejected or abandoned." and we come out
- 1:09:53of agreement with those things or those
- 1:09:55lies, whatever it may be today that you
- 1:09:58are just carrying that burden and that
- 1:10:00hurt. And so we lay all those burdens
- 1:10:04down at your feet right now, Jesus. And
- 1:10:06we invite you into that wound. We invite
- 1:10:09you into that area of pain right now.
- 1:10:11And Lord, I ask that you would touch
- 1:10:14their heart. you would touch and mend
- 1:10:17and heal every broken part of their soul
- 1:10:20or even their spirit and even the
- 1:10:23physical body, Father God. Whoever needs
- 1:10:25physical healing, Lord. And so Lord, I
- 1:10:27just ask right now that you would begin
- 1:10:29to speak to them, that you begin to
- 1:10:31minister to that place of pain and
- 1:10:33trauma. That you would remind them that
- 1:10:36you have never left them, that you have
- 1:10:38never forsaken them, that you were by
- 1:10:40their side when that happened, that you
- 1:10:44receive them, that you love them, that
- 1:10:46you accept them.
- 1:10:50Thank you for your blood.
- 1:10:53Thank you for your love.
- 1:10:55Thank you, Jesus, that you were whipped
- 1:10:57and beaten, that you had a crown of
- 1:10:59thorns pressed into your skull, that you
- 1:11:03had your beard ripped, that you sweat
- 1:11:05blood, that you were whipped and beaten
- 1:11:06and flogged so that I could receive this
- 1:11:09healing right now to my soul.
- 1:11:12And just let the love of God touch your
- 1:11:15heart right now and mend and heal what
- 1:11:19has been broken. It doesn't matter who
- 1:11:21left you. Doesn't matter who abandoned
- 1:11:24you. You have the love of Jesus and that
- 1:11:28is all that we need.
- 1:11:31Thank you Lord that you're sweeping
- 1:11:32through. You're blowing through your
- 1:11:35healing right now. We love you Lord. And
- 1:11:39if there is any unclean spirit, if there
- 1:11:42is any trespassor, if there is any enemy
- 1:11:45that is there, we command them to leave
- 1:11:47right now in Jesus' name. any spirit of
- 1:11:50rejection, any spirit of abandonment,
- 1:11:53anxiety, any spirit that entered through
- 1:11:55trauma and pain, come out in the name of
- 1:11:58Jesus and go. And Holy Spirit, would you
- 1:12:01fill all of those places of their heart
- 1:12:04and bind it together? The word of God
- 1:12:06says that you are close to the
- 1:12:08brokenhearted and you bind up their
- 1:12:10wounds. You are our healer and so we
- 1:12:12thank you for it. Thank you for the
- 1:12:14healing, Lord, in Jesus name. Amen.
- 1:12:16>> Amen. That was amazing. Thank you so
- 1:12:18much.
- 1:12:19>> Praise God.
- 1:12:20>> Thanks for having me.
- 1:12:21>> Yeah, this is awesome. Okay, goodbye.
- 1:12:26That was really good.
