Healing for Abused People

This course is designed to train and equip those caring for and ministering healing to people who have been abused. It will benefit and help anyone involved in counselling or church prayer ministry teams.

The course will help those who have been abused to understand some of the consequences of their abuse. This can be a vital key to moving into healing and freedom.

Whilst in-depth counselling and ministry is not offered on this course, there will, nonetheless, be an opportunity to respond to the teaching, receive prayer and begin a journey to wholeness.

The material taught on this course is the fruit of many years experience of counselling hurting and broken people, many of whom have been abused in various ways.

Topics covered include:

Physical Abuse

Roots of violent behaviour are examined, helping people to understand how the emotional scarring from physical abuse can dominate a person's life even, in some cases, leading them to becoming an abuser themselves.

Verbal Abuse

Words spoken to individuals are powerful. Explains how words of accusation, criticism, condemnation or words spoken in anger can become a curse on our lives.

Sexual Abuse

Introduces the whole subject of sexual abuse, outlining the various forms it can take and some of its consequences.

Emotional Abuse

What it means to be emotionally abused and the harm that is done through negative emotional experiences.

Spiritual Abuse

Explains the difference between godly leadership and spiritual abuse and also considers how those in spiritual authority can be abused by those under their care.

Common consequences of abuse include confusion, guilt and self-rejection. Important steps and key principles that will bring hope and healing to those who have suffered the consequences of abuse will be presented. During the ministry night there will be an opportunity to respond to the teaching and receive prayer.

Testimonies

• Very helpful indeed.

• Wonderful as ever. PRAISE GOD for ELLEL MINISTRIES!

• This has been a very affirming course for me and has helped to dispel confusions. When I have been on the receiving end of spiritual and verbal abuse I have come away blaming myself and feeling very confused. This course helped me to delineate very clearly what actually is abuse so it has opened the door very wide to disentangling from those confused emotions and throwing off the yoke of confusion of many years standing. Section 7f was especially helpful to me. At two different points in the teaching I had a burning question I needed answering and immediately the teachers spoke right into it without my having to ask! I love it when the Holy Spirit works like that! The ministry night was very soothing and affirming and not what I expected! Many, many thanks to all concerned and praise God for Ellel.

• Comprehensive, sensitive and well balanced throughout.

• God did a wonderful work in me releasing me from a fear of anger stemming from my father’s aggressive anger and later from an incident of physical abuse in my first marriage. He took me back to my childhood and healed me from two incidents that had occurred outside of my family. As He held me in His arms I felt like that little child. Holding me close and securely He poured His healing love into me. Although my father loved me and I loved him, nothing could ever compare with that deep, deep love that I felt in my heavenly Fathers arms.

• Set me free from some more aspects of the FreeMasonry from father, miscarriages, bareness. Mother’s domination yoke removed off shoulders.

• Really enjoyed the weekend, amazing teaching and ministry.

• Started the process of healing. The teaching opened up the issues I have. I know what God has started He will finish.

• I came here thinking, “I’ve not been abused.” But the Lord had other ideas (as always).

• The teaching revealed some long held secret (and secret!!!) self abuse which I had dealt with. I now only have to walk (with His help) in the healing that I’ve received. Praise the Lord!!

• Brilliant.

• I was emotionally abused for 16 years by my ex husband. I had some healing for this last night. Thank you.
