Restoring Survivors of Ritual Abuse by Patricia Baird Clark
In this 218 page book, Patricia Baird Clark calls the church forward to understand and minister for the bizarre abuse called satanic ritual abuse. With no formal psychological training she has been able to bring people with diagnoses such as schizophrenia, paranoia, bipolar disorder and borderline personality into complete remission through Jesus Christ. One of these women had been hospitalized in psychiatric hospitals seven times, heavily medicated and given electric shock treatments. No one had ascertained she was severely abused or had dissociative identity disorder. This is a common problem because most mental health professionals are not trained to understand spiritual realities such as the prevalence of Satanism in our society or the existence of demonic powers. This is why the church needs to get involved. The effects of such spiritually driven abuse can only be undone by the power of Jesus Christ brought forth through a committed, loving Christian. This book describes how cultists and demons working together construct a demonically powered inner world in their victim where memories and dissociated parts remain hidden from the conscious mind. Through releasing the Holy Spirit in prayer to reveal these things to the troubled person, the memories and dissociated parts are brought to the surface where ministry can take place. The pain of each episode needs to be released. The lies believed because of the abuse must be renounced and replaced with God's truth. Demons that came in through the abuse must be cast out. Forgiveness must be extended to those who did the abuse. The Holy Spirit must be released to heal the pain. This is obviously the work of the church. Only those who are called by God should do this ministry, but many are called and don't know it. How can they know it when they've not heard of the abuse (which is carefully concealed by the media) nor do they realize the power of Christ within to set others free? We have been conditioned to believe in diseases and medical science when we should be looking for spiritual conditions and biblical solutions administered by Christians. Many mental health professionals are not Christians so would not be able to bring the presence of Jesus to heal much less be able to cast out demons. In many mental health clinics, Christian prayer and deliverance are forbidden. This is why it is imperative for Christian lay persons and ministers to get involved in this ministry. With the call of God and this book, Restoring Survivors of Ritual Abuse in hand, the church can join powerfully with Jesus in His ministry to heal the broken hearted and set the captives free.
In 1970 Patricia and her husband, Dr. F. Stoner Clark, launched out into pastoral ministry in obedience to the Lord's call on their lives. Patricia's first ministry activities were primarily in the areas of teaching women, leading worship and most of all being a supportive wife and stay-at-home mom to their two daughters. However, her ministry went to a new level in 1986 when troubled people literally started coming to her door asking her to cast out their demons. Although she had no experience in doing so, she felt compelled to at least try, and the results were amazing. It was not until 1992 that she first heard about satanic ritual abuse. With this new understanding her ministry took on a whole new dimension of deep inner healing. With this new level of ministry came new challenges in spiritual warfare. New levels, new devils became a daily experience as she followed the Holy Spirit's leading in ministering to the deep, inner structures of dissociated parts and demons in the lowest recesses of the minds and bodies of those to whom she ministered. The Holy Spirit opened her spiritual understanding to the unseen realm of evil spirits and occasionally angels who definitely were alongside in their role as ministering spirits. The satanic ritual abuse ministry is deeply infiltrated by Satanists and false teachings abound on all sides. Sadly most churches want nothing to do with this ministry and yet multitudes of deeply wounded people are desperately searching for help. It has to be the called-out ones in Christ filled with the Holy Spirit who can fill this deep ministry void. Patricia, a graduate of the University of Indianapolis, is the author of eight other books: Restoring Survivors of Satanic Ritual Abuse Sanctification in Reverse The Four Living Creatures The Two Witnesses Prepare the Bride Discerning of Spirits in Revelation 9 This Mortal Puts on Immortality Dissociation Revealed and Healed in Scripture Mary, Martha and Lazarus as Spirit, Soul and Redeemed Body
