LESSON ONE
Journey To Freedom
“Equipping the Saints to do the work of ministry…”-Eph 4:12
“Go into all the world and preach the gospel….”-Mark 16:15
![Page 15: LIFE CHANGERS SCHOOL OF MINISTRY](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052912/55a2097f1a28aba5368b4575/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Overview The objective of this study is to present in a clear
and concise manner, solid biblical truth that will
uncover strongholds and godless patterns in our lives
that prevents us from walking in the freedom that Christ died to give to each person.
Our prayer is that each person would be set free in a new way during this journey to freedom.
“Equipping the Saints to do the work of ministry…”-Eph 4:12
![Page 16: LIFE CHANGERS SCHOOL OF MINISTRY](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052912/55a2097f1a28aba5368b4575/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Inner Healing 2 Corinthians 5:17
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a
new creation; old things have passed
away; behold, all things have become new.”
“Equipping the Saints to do the work of ministry…”-Eph 4:12
![Page 17: LIFE CHANGERS SCHOOL OF MINISTRY](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052912/55a2097f1a28aba5368b4575/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Inner Healing This teaching is about taking back
possession of the “land” of the soul
It is a process of renewal. Also known as SANCTIFICATION.
Soul (Gk: psyche): Consists of three (3) primary areas:• Mind• Will• Emotions
“Equipping the Saints to do the work of ministry…”-Eph 4:12
![Page 18: LIFE CHANGERS SCHOOL OF MINISTRY](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052912/55a2097f1a28aba5368b4575/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Inner Healing Sanctification, hagiasmos:• Separation unto God•The separation of the believer from evil things and ways.
“Equipping the Saints to do the work of ministry…”-Eph 4:12
![Page 19: LIFE CHANGERS SCHOOL OF MINISTRY](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052912/55a2097f1a28aba5368b4575/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Sanctification is a process that is God’s will for every believer. It is the separation of the believer from evil practices, habits and ways and a continual clinging unto Christ. Sanctification is that relationship with God into which men enter by faith in Christ.
“Equipping the Saints to do the work of ministry…”-Eph 4:12
SANCTIFICATION
![Page 20: LIFE CHANGERS SCHOOL OF MINISTRY](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052912/55a2097f1a28aba5368b4575/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Sanctification is a three-stage process that involves one’s past, present and future.
• Stage One: Our Past (Were Saved)• Stage Two: Our Present (Being Saved)• Stage Three: Our Future (Eternally
Safe)

After a person is born again, their spirit is new but they have the same mind which is a product of past experiences and is typically
controlled and dominated by old
thoughts/thought patterns, etc. (strongholds). These must be broken!!

living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

SINS & WOUNDSSin and woundedness are different things and
have very different sources and remedies.
•Sin is a matter of CHOICE and is an act of self-affliction.
•Wounds are inflicted by others
“Equipping the Saints to do the work of ministry…”-Eph 4:12
![Page 30: LIFE CHANGERS SCHOOL OF MINISTRY](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052912/55a2097f1a28aba5368b4575/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
SINS & WOUNDSVarious Kinds of Wounds:
•Verbal
•Physical
•Mental
•Sexual
•Relational
•Parental
•Spiritual
•Emotional
•Pastoral“Equipping the Saints to do the work of ministry…”-Eph 4:12
![Page 31: LIFE CHANGERS SCHOOL OF MINISTRY](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052912/55a2097f1a28aba5368b4575/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
SINS & WOUNDSWe did not choose to be hurt, rejected or violated,
nevertheless the wound is present. Sinful acts of others against and upon us result in a state of emotional woundedness due to the misinterpretation made about the act.
Woundedness must be healed by an experiential reality
of the presence of the Lord Jesus in the historical moment.
“Equipping the Saints to do the work of ministry…”-Eph 4:12
![Page 32: LIFE CHANGERS SCHOOL OF MINISTRY](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052912/55a2097f1a28aba5368b4575/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
SINS & WOUNDSAddressing The “Wound”
1.Invite Jesus into your initial memories & emotions2.Release your pain to Jesus & stop living from the center of your woundedness3.Make a conscious choice to forgive your offender4.Strengthen your sense of identity & knowledge of your true self in Christ

we look first for the original memory
that contains the lie/stronghold.
