Revival, Deliverance & Healing Ministries

Revival, deliverance, and supernatural healing are foundational to Fundamental Pentecostalism, reflecting the power of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer and the Church.

This page remains unchanged from the Darlinghurst Statement of Faith, except for necessary modifications, which are explicitly noted.

1. The Spirit of Revival

• Revival is a sovereign move of God, marked by:
  • Outpouring of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:17).
  • Widespread repentance and salvation (2 Chronicles 7:14).
  • Miracles, signs, and wonders following the preaching of the Word (Mark 16:20).
• The Church actively seeks and prays for revival, believing that:
  • Nations can be transformed through great awakenings.
  • The gifts of the Spirit will manifest in power.

Revival is not a temporary event but a continual move of the Holy Spirit.

2. The Ministry of Deliverance

• Deliverance ministry is an essential part of the Great Commission (Mark 16:17).
• Jesus cast out demons as part of His earthly ministry, and He commanded His followers to do the same (Luke 10:19).
• Deliverance includes:
  • Breaking generational curses (Exodus 20:5-6).
  • Casting out unclean spirits (Mark 1:34).
  • Overcoming oppression through spiritual warfare (Ephesians 6:12).
• The authority of Christ gives believers power over darkness, strongholds, and demonic attacks.

Deliverance in Church Ministry

• Inner healing is often needed alongside deliverance.
• Ministers must be trained and anointed in spiritual warfare.
• Prayer and fasting are critical in breaking strongholds (Matthew 17:21).

3. Divine Healing

• Healing is part of the atonement of Christ (Isaiah 53:5).
• Jesus healed the sick as a demonstration of God’s love and power (Matthew 4:23).
• The Church believes in:
  • The laying on of hands for healing (Mark 16:18).
  • Anointing with oil as a biblical practice (James 5:14-16).
  • Faith in Christ as the healer (Luke 8:50).

Forms of Healing in Fundamental Pentecostalism

🔹 Necessary Modification: Clarified healing methods to align with structured Pentecostal ministry training.

4. Signs, Wonders, & Miracles

• Miracles are a manifestation of God’s Kingdom (1 Corinthians 2:4-5).
• The Church operates in gifts of healing, prophecy, and supernatural provision.
• Common signs include:
  • Healing of the sick (Matthew 10:8).
  • Restoration of sight and mobility (Luke 18:42-43).
  • Prophetic words and knowledge (1 Corinthians 12:8).
  • Supernatural provision (Matthew 14:19-20).

Miracles confirm the Word and point people to Christ.

5. The Role of Intercessors in Revival & Deliverance

• Intercessors play a vital role in sustaining revival.
• Spiritual warfare involves:
  • Identifying strongholds over individuals, churches, and nations.
  • Declaring God’s promises and prophetic words.
  • Engaging in corporate and personal fasting.
• Prayer movements and revival hubs are established to equip intercessors and revivalists.

🔹 Necessary Modification: Expanded intercession role to fit global prayer ministry context.

6. Training for Revival & Deliverance Ministry

• Ministers and leaders are trained to:
  • Discern spiritual atmospheres.
  • Break strongholds and generational cycles.
  • Activate the power of the Holy Spirit for healing and deliverance.
• Training includes:
  • Fivefold ministry equipping (Ephesians 4:11).
  • Biblical foundations of healing and spiritual authority.
  • Practical experience in revival meetings and deliverance services.

🔹 Necessary Modification: Included reference to fivefold ministry to align with leadership development.
