The
word 'renounce' means to disclaim, disown,
reject publicly and abandon something bad.
Two
Reasons to Renounce
Reason
#1 - To provide personal evidence
of miraculous change that encourages others
to believe in the Gospel Message of Jesus
Christ. And many that believed came, and
confessed, and showed their deeds. Many
of them also which used curious arts brought
their books together, and burned them before
all men: and they counted the price of them,
and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.
Acts
19:18-20
As
we have received mercy, we faint not; But
have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty,
not walking in craftiness, nor handling
the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation
of the truth commending ourselves to every
man's conscience in the sight of God. 2
Corinthians 4:1-2
Reason
#2 - To maintain a godly
life free from demonic bondage.
He that covereth his sins shall not prosper:
but whosoever confesseth and forsaketh them
shall have mercy.
Proverbs 28:13, and "As the bird
by wandering, as the swallow by flying,
so the curse
causeless shall not come. Proverbs
26:2. The second verse says a curse
cannot come on us if we do not have any
open doors. The first scripture says that
if we do confess our sins, then we have
mercy and we are forgiven and it closes
the door on the demonic to have any legal
right.
We
separate ourselves from the Lord when we
sin - habitual sin. The enemy knows this
and comes to accuse and sends his demons
to work against you because it has a legal
right. The good news is, Jesus is interceeding
for you. He is for you and not against you.
He is standing there with his arms open
wide for you to make it right.
You
see sin is the works of the flesh and that
is why it has to be repented and renounced.
In Galatians
5:19-21 it says:
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest,
which are these; Adultery, fornication,
uncleanness, lasciviousness,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings,
and such like: of the which I tell you before,
as I have also told you in time past, that
they which do such things shall not inherit
the kingdom of God.
Did
you see in verse 21 it says you shall not
inherit the kingdom of God when we stay
in habitual sin or allow the flesh to control
us allowing the enemy to have legal right
to torment or take you deeper into other
sins.
For
the grace of God that bringeth salvation
hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that,
denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we
should live soberly, righteously, and godly,
in this present world; Looking for that
blessed hope, and the glorious appearing
of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ;
Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem
us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself
a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
Titus
2:11-14
I
say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall
not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the
flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the
Spirit against the flesh: and these are
contrary the one to the other: so that ye
cannot do the things that ye would. But
if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under
the law. Galatians
5:16-18. Again, if we are not
obedient to the word of God and choose to
feed our flesh and not look at the consequences,
then we cannot enter the kingdom of God.
Things
That Should Be Renounced
Personal
& Ancestral Sins that is against the
word of God
Sins
Done Against You
Sins
you do to another (accusation, gossip,
etc.)
False
Religion
Objects
Offensive to God - anything we put more
important than God.
Occult
Practices
But
every man is tempted, when he is drawn away
of his own lust, and enticed. Then when
lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin:
and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth
death. James
1:14-15
Personal
sins are the offenses that you committed
against God. It may be you have prayed and
asked the Lord to forgive you of 'all' of
your sins, and He has, but you are still
tasked with the responsibility of renouncing
these sins for the two reasons I listed
above. I encourage you to pray and ask the
Lord to reveal to you all sins you need
to renounce.
The
renouncing of your sin to another person
can be a simple and informal statement such
as, "I used to do that, but the Lord
showed me it is wrong. I don't want anything
to do with that ever again." This lets
the person know that whatever it was you
did was wrong and sinful. It also let's
the other person know that the Holy Spirit
has trained you to renounce ungodly living.
You
may be required to make a more formal renunciation
for the purpose of obtaining deliverance
from the demons associated with your own
personal sins. When renouncing these sins
you should say a statement similar to this,
"I humble myself before the Lord to
confess and renounce the sins of (put in
the names of your sins here). In the name
of Jesus, I expel from myself all evil spirits
who gained entrance by these sins."
Ancestral
sins (generational curses) are those
that your ancestors or family members committed.
It may be that you have already renounced
some of these sins earlier when dealing
with your own. If you have not renounced
your own personal sins go back up and do
that first. Even if you haven't committed
the same sins your ancestors or other family
members have, you should still renounce
their sins, too. The reason this needs done
is to separate yourself from the generational
curses their sins bring to the family. Your
renunciation might inspire your other family
members to renounce their sins, too.
You
might not be operating in the same sin but
there is a bent to continually tempt you
there so go ahead and renounce the sins
of your forfathers.
A
formal renunciation of ancestral and family
sins might look something like this, "I
renounce the ancestral and family sins of
(all ancestral and family sins). I subject
all curses that come with those sins to
Christ's authority. In the name of Jesus,
I expel from myself all evil spirits who
gained entrance via my family's bloodline."
Below
you will find a list of general sins. None
of the lists are exhaustive, so you might
consider customizing your own lists that
contain your specific sins.
These
sins are those that other people perpetrated
against you. If you were abused then you
need to renounce the sins of your abuser
so that you may not become the same kind
of perpetrator. It is not uncommon for an
abused person to fall into the same sin
his or her abuser committed; therefore these
sins must be renounced so that may never
happen.
A
formal renunciation of the sins against
you might look something like this, "I
renounce the sins of (whatever was done
against you). I subject all curses that
come with those sins to Christ's authority.
In the name of Jesus, I expel from myself
all evil spirits who gained entrance by
these sins."
perversion
(immorality, belittling, incest, rape, sodomy,
incest, and molestation)
theft, deception (lying, deceit, false accusation,
belittling, slander)
gossip (back-biting, judgmental), abuse
(someone abused you either physically, spiritually,
emotionally or mentally) witchcraft (someone
attempted to obtain control over you)
Note:
Be sure that you have forgiven the persons
who sinned against you. If you do not understand
forgiveness click on this link and read
the forgiveness articles.
It
is also important that if someone sin affected
you to forgive those who have hurt you,
abused you or used you. Then also forgive
yourself for participating with sin.
False
Religions
A
formal renunciation of involvement with
any false religion would look like this,
"I renounce ever participating in (all
false religions you were a part of). I subject
all curses that come with such participation
to Christ's authority. In the name of Jesus,
I expel from myself all evil spirits who
gained entrance due to my involvement."
Wicca,
Satanism, Witchcraft, Buddhism, Taoism,
Hinduism, Islam, Shintoism, Confucianism,
Atheism, Kabala, Paganism, Agnosticism,
Bahaism, Pathway, Urantia, Theosophy, Idolatry,
Christian Science, Mormonism, Jehovah's
Witnesses, Rosicrucianism, Subub, Laithan,
Unitarianism, New Age, Santeria, Voodoo,
Macumba, Spiritism, Animism, Ku Klux Klan,
Sikhism, Esotericism, Racism ... (Any religion
that denies that Jesus Christ is Lord)
Objects
Offensive to God
Pray
and ask God to reveal to you all of the
objects and items that are offensive to
Him.
illegal
drugs, Satanic Bible, Necronomicon, occult
paraphernalia , Witches Bible, The Qu'ran
(or Koran), Yoga Sutras, Buddha Sermon,
Tao Te Chung, Harry Potter Books, Dungeons
and Dragons, Yu-Gi-Oh cards, games &
videos, Magic the Gathering, Poke Mon, pornography,
faeries, trolls, idols or anything you hold
higher than God. It could be you put your
trust in Angels instead of God. It could
be you put your trust in vitamines and suppliments
instead of going to God to find out the
root cause of your sickness, etc. It could
be you put your career above God to have
your needs met. It could be you put sexual
sins to meet your need above God. It could
be you use your TV above God to drown out
the day instead of allowing god to refresh
you.
A
formal renunciation of involvement with
any occult practices would look like this,
"I renounce ever participating in the
occult practices of (all occult practices
you were involved in). I subject all curses
that come with such sins to Christ's authority.
In the name of Jesus, I expel from myself
all evil spirits who gained entrance due
to my involvement."

I have to take responsibility to receive
healing when you've tried everything else
like healing lines and you have not received

this book explains the reasons why and how

Deliverance
free teaching online section of Journey2Wholeness at journey2wholeness.org.,
a Christian healing and deliverance ministry in Dallas, Fort Worth,
Texas area. Jesus came to set the captives free - deliverance
and healing but he sent his followers to help minister biblical
deliverance and healing to those who are in spiritual bondage by
setting the captives free from the snares of the Devil to bring
about physical healing, emotional healing and spiritual healing
and even relational healing and financial healing.
Journey2Wholeness reveals truth and recent errors on spiritual
warfare, deliverance and healing ministry principles. Many in
the church are becoming snared in the church through end-time
false doctrine (new age movement) that leads to sad consequences
of spiritual bondage opening doors to demonic
oppression, demon possession, strongholds,
curses, sickness and disease physically, mentally, emotionally
and spiritually. Free teachings online - deliverance and spiritual
warfare.
Journey2Wholeness teaches and ministers to the body of Christ
to set the captives free. We teach about open doors and taking
responsibility. Journey2Wholeness is a non-denominational ministry
to teach Truth that brings true freedom. Learn about spiritual
roots of disease, eliminate it by applying deliverance warfare
prayer, healing prayers, and other areas of deliverance and healing
ministry, such as casting out demons, binding demons, tearing
down strongholds (wrong beliefs), and breaking generational curses
(ancestral curses) which are a result from generational sins
according to Deut. 27 and Deut 28.
Most of all stay healed and delivered by learning right
biblical teachings through our iSchool class.
