Jesus Christ has made deliverance available for all believers. We are delivered from poverty, depressions, sexual immorality, brokenness, etc. Sometimes, people revert back to the thing they were delivered from because they don’t realize that it takes effort to maintain this deliverance.

1 Corinthians 9:27 says, but I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. It’s our responsibility to maintain our deliverance regarding our body (alcohol, drugs, sexual immorality).

Isaiah 26:3 says, you will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you: because he trusts in you. It’s our responsibility to maintain our deliverance regarding our mind (depression low self-esteem, self-worth).

Luke 16:10 says he that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much. It’s our responsibility to maintain our deliverance regarding our finances (poverty).

The urge to want to go back to something we once were delivered from will always be present. We have to use the Word of God to combat the enemy’s suggestions. In order to receive and maintain deliverance, we have to want to be and remain delivered.
