3 Layers to a Wound

  1. The Wounding Event - Any difficult experience, trauma, or neglect

  2. Falsehood - Identity Lie (Falsehood about self) or Character Judgement (Falsehood about someone else)

  3. Unholy Vow - Unconscious & Conscious Choices/Decisions to try to save ourselves

“It's never only the demonic, but it's also never not at all the demonic.” Neal Lozano

Matthew 12: 43 - 45  “When an unclean spirit goes out of a person it roams through arid regions searching for rest but finds none.  Then it says, ‘I will return to my home from which I came.’ But upon returning, it finds it empty, swept clean, and put in order. Then it goes and brings back with itself seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they move in and dwell there; and the last condition of that person is worse than the first. Thus it will be with this evil generation.” https://bible.usccb.org/bible/matthew/12


The Seven Deadly Wounds: Abandonment, Shame, Fear, Powerlessness, Rejection, Hopelessness, Confusion

“The devil uses our wounds to testify against the love of God.”

What to do:

  1. Go in with God & Others

  2. Repent, Renounce, & Forgive

  3. Let the Holy Spirit guide you & Accept when you hear/feel nothing

  4. Be patient: There are layers/stages of healing


Our Holy Vows provide a foundation for us to face our unholy vows and allow God to heal us.”
