has the following benefits:

The Apostle John wrote, “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name” (John 1: 12 NKJV), and he also wrote, “See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are” (1 John 3: 1).

No amount of effort on your part can save you, and neither can any religious activity, no matter how well intentioned. We are saved by faith, that is, by what we choose to believe. All that remains for us to do is put our trust in the finished work of Christ. “For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourself, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast” (Ephesians 2: 8–9). If you have never received Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you can do so right now.

God knows the thoughts and intentions of your heart, so all you have to do is put your trust in God alone. You can express your decision in prayer as follows:

Since we are all born dead (spiritually) in our trespasses and sin (Ephesians 2:1), we had neither the presence of God in our lives nor the knowledge of His ways. Consequently, we all learned to live independently of God. When we became new creations in Christ our minds were not instantly renewed. That is why Paul wrote, do not conform any longer to the pattern of is world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is-His good, pleasing, and perfect will” (Romans 12:2 NIV).

That is why new Christians struggle with many of the same old thoughts and habits. Their minds have been previously programmed to live independently of God and that is the chief characteristic of our flesh. As new creations in Christ we have the mind of Christ, and the Holy Spirit will lead us into all truth. To experience our freedom in Christ, and grow in the grace of God, requires repentance, which literally means a change of mind. God will enable that process as we submit to Him and resist the devil (James 4:7).

The Steps to Freedom in Yeshua are designed to help you do that. Submitting to God is the critical issue. He is the wonderful counselor and the One who grants repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth (2 Timothy 2:25). The Steps cover seven critical issues that affect our relationship with God. We will not experience our freedom in Christ if we seek false guidance, believe lies, fail to forgive others as we have been forgiven, live in rebellion, respond in pride, fail to ac- knowledge our sin, and continue in the sins of our ancestors. “He who conceals transgressions ill not prosper, but he who confesses and Forsakes [renounces] them will find compassion (Proverbs 28:13).

“Therefore since we have this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not lose heart, but we renounced things hidden because of shame, not walking in craftiness or adulterating the word of God, but by the mani- festation of truth” (2 Corinthians 4:1–2).

Even though Satan is defeated, he still rules this world through a hierarchy of demons who tempt, accuse, and deceive those who fail to put on the armor of God, stand firm in their faith, and take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. Our sanctuary is our identity and position in Christ and we have all the protection we need to live a victorious life, but if we fail to assume our responsibility and give ground to Satan, we will suffer the conse- quences of our sinful attitudes and actions. The good news is, we can repent and reclaim all that we have in Christ, and that is what The Steps will enable you to do.

Ideally, it would be best if you attended the Freedom In Christ Discipleship Course, and read Victory Over The Darkness, and The Bondage Breaker before you processed The Steps. Books, audio, and other  resources are available from www.BiancalGibson.com

The best way to go through The Steps is to process them with Bianca L Gibson.  You can also go through The Steps on your own. Every step is explained so you will have no trouble doing that. 

I suggest you find a quiet place where you can process The Steps out loud. If you experience some mental interference, just ignore it and continue on. 

Thoughts such as, This isn’t going to work, or I don’t believe this, or blasphemous, condemning, and accusing thoughts have no power over you unless you believe them. They are just thoughts and it doesn’t make any difference if they originate from you, an external source, or from Satan and his demons. 

They will be resolved when you have fully repented. If you are working through The Steps with Bianca, share any mental or physical opposition that you are experiencing. The mind is the control center, and you will not lose control in the Freedom Appointment if you don’t lose control of your mind. The best way to do that, if you are being mentally harassed, is to just share it. Exposing the lies to the light breaks the power.

 The Apostle Paul wrote that “Satan disguises himself as an angel of light” (2 Corinthians e yes hae :14). It is not uncommon for some to have thoughts or hear voices that claim to be friendly, offer companionship, or claim to be from God. 

They may even say that Jesus is Lord, but they cannot say that Jesus is their Lord. If there is any doubt about their origin, verbally ask God to show you the true nature of such spirit guides. 

You don’t want any spirit guide other than the Holy Spirit to guide you. Remember, you are a child of God and seated with Christ in the heavenlies (spiritual realm). That means you have the authority and power to do His will. 

The Steps don’t set you free. Jesus sets you free and you will progressively experience that freedom as you respond to Him in faith and repentance. Don’t worry about any demonic interference, most do not experience any. It doesn’t make any difference if Satan has a little role or a bigger role, the critical issue is your relationship with God and that is what you are resolving. 

This is a ministry of reconciliation. Once those issues are resolved, Satan has no right to remain. Successfully completing this repentance process is not an end, it is a beginning of growth. Unless these issues are resolved, however, the growth process will be stalled and your Christian life will be stagnant

On a separate piece of paper write down any false beliefs and lies that surface during The Steps, especially those that are not true about yourself and God. When you are finished, verbally say for each exposed falsehood: I renounce the lie that [what you have believed], and I announce the truth that [what you are now choosing to believe is true based on God’s word]. It may be best to have your encourager Bianca keep this list for you.  

It is strongly recommended that you repeat the process of renouncing lies and choosing truth for forty days since we are transformed by the renewing of our minds (Romans 12:2), and it is very easy to defer back to old flesh patterns when tempted.

Processing these steps will play a major role in your journey of becoming more and more like Jesus so that you can be a fruitful disciple. The purpose is to become firmly rooted in Christ. It doesn’t take long to establish your identity and freedom in Christ, but there is no such thing as instant maturity. Renewing your mind and conforming to the image of God is a lifelong process. 

May God grace you with His presence as you seek to do His will. Once you have experienced your freedom in Christ you can help others experience the joy of their salvation. You are now ready to begin The Steps by saying the prayer and declaration.

In the name and authority of the Lord Jesus Christ, I command Satan and all evil spirits to release their hold on me in order that I can be free to know and choose to do the will of God. As a child of God who is seated with Christ in the heavenly places, I declare that every enemy of the Lord Jesus Christ in my presence be bound. God has not given me a spirit of fear, therefore I reject any and all condemning, accusing, blasphemous, and deceiving spirits of fear. Satan and all his demons cannot inflict any pain or in any way prevent God’s will from being done in my life today, because I belong to the Lord Jesus Christ.
