Overview Of Different Forms Of Inner Healing Ministries

Sozo (website)

SOZO is the Greek word translated “saved, healed, delivered.” Sozo ministry is a unique inner healing and deliverance ministry aimed to get to the root of things hindering your personal connection with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. With a healed connection, you can walk in the destiny to which you have been called. - Bethel Sozo Website

In a nutshell, Sozo is a God-led framework helping to free individuals from the effects of wounding and sin, and delivering people from the snares and presence of the demonic. It is done in overt partnership with God through finding past and present believed lies and points of access and removing or changing them; establishing healing, blessing and obedience in their place; and restoring individuals to relationship with Papa God and a more fruitful and fulfilling walk. - Andy Reese

Immanuel Prayer (website)

First of all, Immanuel Prayer is prayer, plain and simple. That means it's not counseling ministry, deliverance ministry or prophetic ministry. The first and primary goal in a prayer session is to connect with God and enjoy being with Him. That connection with God often leads to healing, counsel and deliverance which is a secondary benefit to being in His presence. Connecting with Him in a tangible way comes first. Which brings me to the second point.
Immanuel Prayer is built on the reliability of God's nature as the Immanuel God. The name Immanuel means "God with us." By nature, He is always, everywhere personally present. That means God is with all of us simultaneously. He was with us before we were Christians and even when we were in our worst moments. It means that God is with you now wherever you are and will always be with you. So the goal in Immanuel Prayer is to help people connect personally -- not just theoretically -- with the God who is present. For a great illustration of Immanuel, you might enjoy this video from Brazil.
The session begins with an opening prayer. In this opening prayer we ask God to:
1. Open us to His presence by reminding us of a time in the past when He was close OR by reminding us of any positive memory (whether it was a God memory or not). Such memories are often excellent springboards to connect with God.
2. Protect us from any interference from the enemy and cut off any influence from him.
3. Lead us wherever He wants to go. Sometimes He uses the time to deepen our relationship with Him and sometimes He uses the time to remove obstacles that separate our heart from Him. This often brings deep and lasting healing from bitterness, unforgiveness, shame, fear or trauma and a sense of love, joy and peace.

Deep Healing (book)

Deep Healing Prayer is a form of Inner Healing prayer, which leads a person into a deep engagement with Jesus for the purpose of receiving His love, healing, and freedom from past hurts and abuse. Lies a person has adopted are exposed as Jesus speaks the truth about their identity. The enemy’s strategy against a person is revealed and stopped as any vows, curses, and soul ties are broken. Through deliverance we break strongholds and empower the person to experience ongoing victory with powerful new tools and insight.

The Four Sources of Our Problems

Rarely can we point to a single cause for problems in our lives. They are usually complicated and can involve many people and events which impact us on a regular basis. Compound these events over a life-time and it is no wonder that we are often at a loss to discern the root causes of such pressing issues. These many facets continually interact to make us who we are.

This is true for the four sources of our problems and their negative effects on our lives. The four sources are: Generational Sins and Curses, Ungodly Beliefs, Life’s Hurts, and Demonic Oppression. These sources are integrally intertwined. There is a fundamental interrelatedness between each one and the other three sources... - Restoring the Foundations website

1. Generational Sins and Curses

Our God Has a Generational Perspective

Our God is eternal. While we often focus on our here and now, God has a generational view of life. He is known throughout history as the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Down through the ages, God has honored family and heredity. As we love or honor God, He not only blesses us, He brings an inheritance of blessings to our children and grandchildren to a thousand generations. We call this Generational Blessings.

As we hate or dishonor God, our lives and the lives around us suffer immensely. Over time, and unchecked, our character and integrity become warped. That sin or iniquity can bring curses to us, our children, and our grandchildren to three or four generations. We call this Generational Sin.

As we come to understand God’s perspective and His requirements, we can effectively deal with the generational sins and curses that have come into our lives through our family line. We can then intentionally pursue generational blessings not only for us, but also for our children and grandchildren. - Restoring the Foundations website

2.Ungodly Beliefs

Our God is the God of Truth

God cannot lie; His loving and holy perspective is always true. Jesus lived out that truth and perspective not only as an example for us to follow, but so that we might know the truth deep in our being. An essential key to our wholeness and freedom is receiving God’s truth and applying it to the beliefs that guide our lives.

From the moment we enter this world, bits and pieces of information and impressions continue to come together to form our beliefs and expectations. We consciously or unconsciously form opinions and make conclusions. Often these opinions and conclusions are wrong. No matter how staunchly we hold to them and relentlessly defend them, they simply are wrong. These ungodly beliefs, developed over time, often seem reasonable to us based upon the facts and experiences of our life. In fact, they affect our expectations and behavior (and the behavior of others) which often leads to a cycle of reinforcing the ungodly beliefs, expectations and resulting behavior.

There is a truth above the facts: God’s truth. Gaining God’s perspective and His truth about our life and experiences is essential. With it, we can understand our identity as God’s beloved child and appropriate His healing and freedom in our life. Our God is a God of truth. - Restoring the Foundations website

3. Life's Hurts

Our God Heals Life’s Hurts

God is our Healer. He delights to heal us spiritually, emotionally, and physically. In fact, one of God’s name is Jehovah Rapha—Our God who heals.

The pain of past hurt can rule our life. It simmers, it stifles, and sometimes it shuts us completely down. Understanding scriptural principles brings comfort and hope, but it does not necessarily bring healing. Forgiveness releases us from bitterness and from the bondage of negative ties to others, but it does not necessarily heal hurts. Demolishing demonic oppression brings great freedom, but it does not heal hurts.

God heals hurts. He is waiting and ready to touch our deepest pain if we will let Him. In a sense, His healing is another divine exchange, in which we offer to Him our hurt and He offers to us His healing. Most of us do not know how to go about receiving this wonderful gift He has to offer.

4. Demonic Oppression

Our God Sets His People Free

God is free. It is His eternal character; and, it is His desire for each of us. Our Heavenly Father hates sin because it leads us into bondage and hinders our relationship with Him.

Evil is real. Simply turn on the evening news or ponder the history of mankind and it seems impossible to escape the horrors of sick people and violent cultures. And, evil is real in our personal lives too.

There is a devil and he desires to destroy your life. He desires to steal your joy. If he could get away with it, he would kill you and those you love. Not everything bad in our life is the direct result of demonic exploits, we certainly do sin enough to wreak havoc in our lives. But there is an assault, a bondage, and an oppression—whether in subtle whispers or in screeching fury—that can hold us back from walking in freedom and entering into our destiny. But, just as God delivered His children from Egypt and led them into the Promised Land, He desires to set you free from the wiles of the demonic and usher you into your destiny.

Whom the Son sets free is free indeed! - Restoring the Foundations website
