Whale team vs Demon

Yesterday our team randomly decided to head to Paramos. There wasn’t much going on there and we watched a couple men playing soccer. After 20 minutes or so, one man came over and introduced himself and asked what we were doing and where we were from. We explained that we are Christians on a mission trip. Then he told us how they were staying at a rehabilitation center and the man who runs it was also a Christian. He invited us to come tour the center and ended up in really nice rehabilitation place for drugs and alcohol. The man who ran The center told us his testimony. He told us how the Lord set him free from his heroin addiction and called him to ministry. It was so cool to hear from him and to be encouraged by his faith.. as it turns out, God was planting seeds for us!

The next day we were doing homeless feeding. As I was setting up kevin decided he would wander off(Kevin is known to wander off). I felt the urge to go find him. Which I didn’t realize at the time of the Holy Spirit. Soon after Kevin returned he asked us if we would help him drive out a demon. After a quick, “YES”,especially from Jillisa. Jillisa Liv and I followed Kevin to the possessed man. As we walked over Kevin explained how the man was begging for prayer. Kevin knew from the start there was something different about the man. As kevin began to pray for him, the demon came alive and grab Kevin’s hand. Kevin quoted 1 Chronicles 16:22 and ask the demon his name. The demon replied I am The 7 Angel of hell. That’s when he came and got us.

This man told us that he had been drinking alcohol for 30 years but after his mother died he really experienced the demons coming into his life. He proceeded to tell us how the demons had been driven out three times before and had returned.

Matthew 12:43-45 ““When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ When it arrives, it finds the house unoccupied, swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is worse than the first. That is how it will be with this wicked generation.””

The demons had returned three times and had a strong hold on him. He told us how he drinks 7 cups of cursed deer blood. He explained that he hadn’t slept in 15 days because the demons were tormenting him so much. We began to pray over the man. As we prayed you could see the torment within this man. Theee faithfulness of God’s Word and the boldness of the Holy Spirit working within us, was simply amazing. We were able to see God‘s authority first hand! He begged us to stop so we did. As soon as we finished praying, we really needed to return to our ministry of feeding the homeless.

We fed the homeless for several hours and it was difficult These men are my age and addicted to drugs and alcohol and have no opportunity. The brokenness in so many hearts was real. Kevin and I prayed over many people, and I really felt broker for their situations.

As soon as the homeless feed was done, I spotted the man across the park. Kevin, Jillisa, Trisa and I were ready to go. We went over and began talking to the man again. Jillisa asked such good questions, so shout out to her. Her questions lead to the man explaining to us how the demon took him to the gates of hell. How they walked past a mile long line of people waiting to get in. The demons showed him his name on the scroll of hell. How he felt like there no way out. We all began to speak truth into his life. Soon we began to pray for him, the sounds and the way his was moving was like noting I’ve ever experienced. He was sitting at the start of the prayer and as we prayed over him he began to fall over and end up on his side on the ground. Soon kevin and I were holding him down as we prayed over him. I have to stop right here and say I’ve never felt the Lord presence like I was feel at the moment. I felt the presence of the literal creator of the heaven and the earth. As I prayed I felt like I need to lay down on the ground. I felt like I needed to get up and leave that place. His presence was so evident. I was praying in a way I’ve never prayed before thing were coming out that I didn’t even think of. I was just spitting out words. As we prayed we were demanding the 7th Angel of hell out of him. He was laying on his side and twice he attempted to get up. Kevin and I held him down. At that moment I felt the presence of the Lord more than I ever have. I could barely speak I felt like balling crying. He was there, and I could feel His literal Greatness. I felt like I couldn’t bare to be where I was. I felt the Lord throughout my hole body. As we prayed I notice that kevin and I were demanding the demon to come out of him. Jillisa was praying from a standpoint of heart break, and speaking life over him. It was soooo cool, as we prayed I felt the creater presence. At this point my eye were open and I watch and listen(while praying) kevin speaking in touges. As soon at he finished speaking in touges he said “I demanded you 7th Angel of hell to come out of this man in Jesus name”. I watch as a normal eyes turn black as night and another being inside of this man come alive. That being said “How do you know my name?” Soon after he stopped convulsing and doing other worldly things and began to speak like normal Luis would. We stopped praying and he told us how he felt 2 demons leave him. But one still remains.

I refuse to believe that the Lord works by coincidence. In the words of Jillisa Dad(hope your reading this bro), coincidences are God’s way of staying anonymous. I just refuse to believe the fact that we ran into a alcohol and drug rehabilitation place the day before led by a strong Christian that we aren’t supposed to take him to that place. It’s something we’re praying over right now, but if it’s the Lords will I believe it will be done.

At this point we need prayer, we need fasting. We need people to pray for freedom for Luis, we know we serve a God who can free him. But we need your prayer. We need God.
