Cutting or self-mutation is a special type of addiction, where there’s a need to either release pain in a person’s heart or the person believes that they deserve to be punished for their failures. In these cases, the person certainly has an issue receiving the love that God has for them but there’s another type of root that needs to be addressed as well. There’s emotional pain or guilt that the person is dealing with that needs to be resolved. Finding out what happened and receiving Christ’s truth concerning those areas is important for their healing. Any bondage involving guilt will need to be resolved through realizing and accepting the work of Christ on the cross for that person and they will likely need spirits of guilt, condemnation, self-hate, etc. driven out in Jesus’ name. Again, getting the person to see themself for who they really are in Christ, forgiven, loved, and blessed, is crucial to lasting freedom from self-hate issues.
