The whole world is swimming in a soup of broken identity, distorted love, and a desperate search for approval from all the wrong places. But the affirmation we’re longing for can ultimately only be found in God.In today’s episode of Everyday Exorcist, Grant and Kat unpack the powerful role of a father’s blessing in healing and deliverance. Before Jesus ever performed a miracle or launched into public ministry, the Father spoke these words over Him: “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” Jesus was blessed, loved, and affirmed by His Father before He did anything to earn it. For many people, those are the very words they never heard growing up. As believers, and especially as people ministering in healing, deliverance, and restoration, we have the opportunity to stand in the gap and speak the truth of God’s heart over others: You are a son. You are a daughter. You are loved. You are wanted. You are seen. Your Father delights in you. The blessing can be a powerful tool in the deliverance ministry toolbelt because it doesn’t simply speak life, it can help unhook the lies people believe about God and themselves because of wounds from their earthly parents. In this episode, Grant and Kat explore how speaking words of blessing and truth can open the door to deep healing, restore identity, and help people break free from lifelong patterns of feeling unworthy, unwanted, rejected, or unloved. Sometimes freedom isn’t only about casting something out. Sometimes it’s about finally receiving what was missing, and hearing the truth of who you are as a beloved son or daughter of God.
