Power of Blessing sets people free

Twice quite recently I have had to take over a deliverance ministry because the people doing it had to leave or move on to something else. So the baton was passed to me. 
The first case was a Christian man. He needed deliverance. There was no doubt about that.

But when I, and a couple of others, took him out to another more private room, I felt to bless him as a father. When I got to the bit where I asked him if he would forgive me (as a substitute father) for things done or said that that hurt him, he said “no, never” Why not?

He used to beat me, one time was so bad I ended up in hospital, I can’t forgive him. I pushed it further, gently but firmly. After quite a long time he finally made a decision to forgive his father. As he did so he fell on his knees weeping and with very little drama the demons left and he was a new man. 

The second case involved a mature, beautiful woman of God. When the baton was passed to me I asked her if her father had ever laid hands on her and blessed her. I know he loved me she said defensively. But did he bless you I insisted. No. May I bless you in his place? Yes. From the moment I started she cried and cried and cried. I have never seen so many tears. There was big wet patch on the carpet. The heaviness in her chest was gone. Deliverance was no longer an issue. 

The purpose in sharing these accounts of course is that the entry point had to be identified and closed off before deliverance could take place and for the person to stay delivered. And the entry point is often a wound of the heart. The father’s blessing brings love and affirmation and identity and healing. Just so beautiful.
