Which is Better: Deliverance or Mace?

How to Choose Between Deliverance and the Mace Energy Method

Over the years, I've met many people searching for freedom—freedom from emotional pain, confusion, fear, trauma, or the feeling that something unseen is holding them back. Two methods that often come up in those conversations are Deliverance and the Mace Energy Method.

Both can bring transformation. Both deal with what's going on deep inside you. But they come from very different foundations. If you're wondering which one is right for you, let me share some guidance that may help you decide.

Understanding the Foundations

Deliverance: Freedom Through Jesus Christ

Deliverance is rooted in the Christian faith and in the authority of Jesus Christ. It's not a form of therapy or energy work—it's a spiritual process that breaks strongholds, removes oppression, and restores peace to your soul through the power of God.

During deliverance, the focus is on prayer, repentance, forgiveness, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It's about identifying what's been holding you back—whether it's fear, addiction, trauma, or something spiritual in nature—and inviting Jesus to set you free.

Deliverance is only for Christians because it depends entirely on the authority of Christ. You can't cast out darkness without the Light of the world. When you belong to Him, you have access to that authority.

When freedom comes, it's unmistakable. There's peace, clarity, and often a feeling of deep relief—as though a heavy burden has been lifted.

The Mace Energy Method: Releasing Emotional Charge

The Mace Energy Method, created by John Mace, is not a spiritual practice. It's a consciousness-based process that helps people dissolve the emotional charge attached to painful memories, beliefs, or identities.

Instead of prayer, it uses structured mental techniques that bring awareness to the root of emotional pain. Once that emotional "charge" is gone, you feel lighter, calmer, and clearer. It's not about casting out or confronting; it's about neutralizing emotional energy at its source.

I've seen people gain tremendous emotional relief using this approach, especially when they aren't looking for a faith-based method. It's gentle, effective, and empowering for many.

Key Differences Between the Two

Aspect Deliverance Mace Energy Method
Foundation Christian, faith-based Secular, consciousness-based
Focus Spiritual oppression, sin, demonic influence Emotional charge and belief systems
Tools Used Prayer, Scripture, authority of Jesus Mental awareness and guided processes
Goal Freedom through the Holy Spirit Emotional neutrality and self-empowerment
Session Style Guided prayer, discernment, forgiveness Structured awareness and recall process
Practitioner's Role Deliverance minister or pastor Certified Mace Practitioner
Outcome Spiritual and emotional freedom in Christ Emotional balance and clarity

Choosing Based on Your Core Beliefs

When it comes to choosing between the two, the first question I always ask is: What do you believe about the nature of your struggle?

If you are a Christian, and you sense that your issue feels spiritual—like an invisible weight, recurring fear, or a force that seems to resist prayer—then Deliverance is the right path. Deliverance deals directly with spiritual roots that emotional or mental work alone can't reach.

If, on the other hand, you're looking to release emotional pain, past trauma, or limiting beliefs without a religious framework, then the Mace Energy Method can be an excellent option. It works at the level of awareness, not faith.

Both can bring peace and transformation, but they operate in very different realms—one spiritual, one energetic and psychological.

Signs You May Be Ready for Deliverance

• You feel spiritually oppressed, blocked, or tormented.

• You've noticed recurring cycles of fear, anger, confusion, or despair that prayer seems to stir up rather than calm down.

• You sense there's something beyond the emotional level—a spiritual resistance or presence.

• You want a deeper walk with Jesus and freedom in every area of your life.

When these signs are present, Deliverance can bring lasting freedom that reaches the soul, not just the mind.

Signs You May Be Drawn to the Mace Energy Method

• You feel weighed down by emotional pain or inner conflict.

• You're tired of reacting the same way in stressful situations.

• You want to clear the charge of old memories so you can feel calm and confident.

• You're open to a structured, non-religious process that helps you move past the emotional "sting" of past experiences.

The Mace Method is especially helpful for emotional healing and self-awareness. It's often peaceful, gentle, and fast-acting.

Walking the Path of Healing

Whichever path you choose, healing is rarely a one-time event—it's a process. Deliverance brings spiritual freedom; the Mace Energy Method brings emotional balance. Sometimes people do both at different times in their lives, depending on what kind of healing their soul needs.

The key is discernment. Pray, listen, and trust the leading of the Holy Spirit. Freedom always begins with honesty and the willingness to face what's inside.

Final Thoughts

Deliverance and the Mace Energy Method both offer pathways to freedom—but they lead there in very different ways. Deliverance is spiritual and Christ-centered; the Mace Method is consciousness-based and secular.

If you belong to Christ, Deliverance brings the kind of transformation only the Holy Spirit can give. If you're looking for emotional healing without the spiritual framework, the Mace Energy Method may meet you where you are.

In the end, the goal is the same: to live in peace, wholeness, and freedom. Listen to your spirit—it will tell you what kind of healing you're ready for.
