A Prisoner of Lies
Jesus has come to proclaim freedom for the captives, to heal the brokenhearted and release the prisoners from darkness.
(Isaiah 61)
  Resource 1: A List of Lies
The "father of lies" tries to keep us in bondage to our past through false interpretations connected to strong emotional responses. These "lies" we believe can come from two sources: what we call "imposition wounds" which are painful intrusions into our lives; eg., physical or sexual abuse; or "deprivation wounds" which arise from a systematic lack or absence of something in our lives; eg., abandonment by a parent, overall lack of love, etc.

Deprivation Lies
Abandonment lies: "I am all alone;" "There is no one to protect me;" "I can't trust;" "All good things will be lost;" "God has forsaken me."
Rejection lies: "I don't matter;" "I am not loved;" "I am not needed;" "I am not wanted;" "God doesn't love me."
Shame lies: "I deserved it;" "I'm bad;" "I'm not loveable;" "It is all my fault;" "I should've done something about it."
Hopeless lies: "It is never going to change;" "there is no hope for anything good for me;" "I have no reason to live."

Imposition Lies
Powerless lies: "I am too weak;" "There is no way out;" "I am overwhelmed;" "The pain is too much to bear;" "Everything is out of control;" "I have to do it myself, but I can't do anything about it."
Invalidation lies: "I am worthless and unimportant;" "I am not acceptable;" "I can never be good enough;" "I can never please them;" "I am a failure;" "God couldn't love me."
Tainted lies: "I am dirty because of what happened to me;" "I will never feel clean again;" "My life is ruined;" "I will always be damaged goods;" "No one will ever be able to love me;" "Everyone can see my dirtiness."
Fear lies: "If I trust I will die;" "It is just a matter of time before it happens again;" "If I let them get close to me, they will hurt me too;" "Doom is around the corner; "God can't help me."
