3. II. Objectives: Developing Insights into the Divine Nature of Healing
1. Being grounded in Sacred Principles: Insight into God’s Word
Faith for the release of God’s promised healing is the result of knowing and
acting on the Word. This ministry utilizes the spiritual principles of Scripture
that serve as instruments, and introduce tools, for the enhancement of one’s
personal alignment with God in Jesus Christ the living Word as Source of all
healing (Jehovah Rapha), and direct means to recovery from all things.
2. Finding Healing Where it Hurts: Insight into God’s Deliverance
We have a new understanding of how to deal with past hurts, one that
acknowledges the damage to the human spirit while charting a path toward
the abundant life God promisesiv. This ministry focuses on the issues that
underlie the anger, pain, and disappointments that lead to addictive
emotional, psychological and physical, fallen-world states of being, offered in
spiritual environments of sacred confidence, serving as a means to healing
individual hurts.
3. Emphasizing Personal Responsibility: Insight into God’s Discipline
We are saved, healed, delivered, protected, preserved and made whole in
the Oneness of God. This ministry emphasizes the empowerment of
personal engagement in, and responsibility for, one’s own healing process,
viewing professionals as facilitators of a process owned by the individual as
a means to personal development through the discipline of ordered steps to
wholeness in God.
4. Emphasizing Spiritual Commitment to Christ: Insight into New Life in Christ
We confess Him, crucified, dead, buried, risen day three unto glory,
inasmuch; we are healed by His stripes. This ministry emphasizes the
healing power of Christ and the ways to tap into It as a spiritual commitment
to awaken the healer within; understanding the relationship between
renewed health and renewed life in Christ.
5. Understanding we need each other in order to grow Spiritually and
Emotionally: Insight about Giving and Receiving Comfort
As Children of God (COGs in the Great Divine), we are called upon to share
each other’s burdens. This ministry embodies the power of group dynamics
and peer support to embrace each other’s challenges; sharing experience
and finding approaches to recovery from all things that support each
individual as they determine fit through social interaction.
6. Addressing all types of Habits, Hurts, Hang-ups and other forms of worldly
Dis-ease/Disease: Insight concerning Obstacles to Wholeness/Holiness
We all live in a fallen world, are damaged, and need to be healed as we grow
in our relationships with God and othersv. This ministry encompasses and
confronts every obstacle to Peace as a means to break these cycles with the
assumption that there is but one obstacle with many forms: Identification with
the World vs. Identification with the Christ.

4. 7. Developing Support Networks in Fellowship: Insight into the Power of
Christian Community
It was Paul’s concern that hearts may be braced (comforted cheered and
encouraged) as they are knit together in Love. This ministry strives for the
creation of a safe space for people who want to heal without judgment and
condemnation, recovering without guilt, and growing in the Love of God as it
is manifested in the oneness of a participation seeking to develop a network
of peer support that nurtures members and future leaders in the Body of
Christ.
