Souza began by addressing the hidden roots behind many physical and spiritual afflictions: “Idols cannot see, they cannot hear, they cannot walk, and they cannot talk… so they’re going to make you not be able to see in the spirit, hear in the spirit, speak the prophetic word… but they’re also going to affect your natural—your eyes in the natural, your ears in the natural… your skeletal system.”
She explained how physical issues like tumors or food disorders often trace back to idolatry, and how the renunciation of these idols have healed people from their varying issues. “I’ve literally had them renounce idolatry and I’ll wave my hand across their arm or their chest and the tumors disappear,” Souza said.
Food addiction is another form of modern idolatry, she explained: “That’s usually because they’ve been wounded in their soul… they’re going to run to idolatry to comfort the pain… What was one of the biggest practices in the Old Testament? Bring food sacrifices to your idol.”
Souza emphasized that trauma is the doorway to many of these strongholds. “People make bad choices once they’re wounded by trauma,” she said.
One testimony Souza shared during the interview stood out with how the power of God can change anything: a man with metal rods in his spine was dramatically healed during prayer. “His biggest trauma is not the accident… it’s because the only person that ever loved him… was his grandmother, and she’s died.” After addressing the trauma and renouncing idolatry, “he’s doing this—he couldn’t bend before… he’s now bending and turning and he’s walking and he puts down the cane… the pain goes away.”
Ultimately, as Souza shares, the key to healing is the finished work of Christ. “Christ is the answer… but inside the Scriptures are keys that we have never even unlocked about how much Christ is the answer.”

She also taught that true breakthrough comes from being led by the Spirit. “There has to be a quieting of the soul and a positioning in worship… and then through the reading of the Word, through quieting the self, we’ll hear the instruction of the Spirit.”
Katie Souza’s message is a bold call to the body of Christ to confront hidden idols, heal unresolved trauma, and return to the authority of Christ’s finished work. Her testimonies of supernatural healing and deliverance reveal that breakthrough isn’t reserved for a few—it’s available to all who are willing to surrender fully, listen to the Holy Spirit and apply biblical truth with unwavering faith.
