| SPECIAL NOTE I AM HAVING TROUBLE SENDING
NEWSLETTERS AND WITH THE FORMAT - PLEASE FORGIVE THE LOOKS.
Greetings in the name of the Lord from India. It is a truly
beautiful area here in the Himalayas and there is none other quite
like it. We have been blessed and though we have had some battles,
nothing that is not expected. The enemy doesn’t like to lose
territory. Things are going well and we are working well together as
a team. The Lord is flowing through us is power. Many have enjoyed
Dr. Bob’s teaching and ministry and several have been healed as Rev.
Larry blows the shofar over them so now several people want him to
come blow the shofar over their home.
PACHAK
KAMIRE Wednesday we went to Pachak Kamire just the other side of
Pedong. It is a small village in the mountains with not even a small
store. The roads were very rough but it was worth it to minister to
and encourage these people that are often forgotten by others
because they are so far back in the mountains. The Pastor was a
young man named Dilkumar Tamang. There is no indoor water, no
electricity or telephones there. Their home and ministry is in the
heart of a Buddhist stronghold, which makes it very oppressive.
When we first started to minister it was very difficult. It
seemed like our spiritual battery was dead but we knew it wasn’t. We
just had to press through. The people received the word well. But it
was only after praying for 2 or 3 people that the healings began to
flow easier. I could tell there were many curses aimed our way. But
still the Lord healed and delivered several. When the crowd was
dismissed it was “much” easier to pray for people, which let me know
they brought much of the curses and hindrances with them.
Now
there were mainly only pastors and leaders left. One Pastor had
walked very far for prayer with his wife. He had been a pioneer in
the area for over 30 years. Before that he had been a strict
Buddhist until he became very sick and paralyzed. He tried many gods
and many witchdoctors and spent all the family money but was no
better. One day as they laid him out the porch to catch some sun he
remembered Christians who had passed there way had left him a tract.
At the time he stuck it in a crack in the boards and never intended
to read it. But now he was desperate. As he read the tract about a
God that wants to give you life enough to die for you he was amazed.
So he told the Lord if he would heal him that he and his family
would serve only him as God. That night he slept well for the first
time in a long time.
The next morning the chickens under the
house were noisy so he jumped up to quiet them so he could sleep. He
was downstairs before he realized he was walking and that he was
well. Carefully he tested every muscle. He was completely healed.
When he wife came home from working in the fields he told her, the
Christian God healed him and that as a family they would now only
serve him. He was beaten by his family, cursed and cut out of the
community by his friends until one by one they too needed a healing
or a miracle, then the church began to grow. But now the church had
many problems.
As I prayed for him I saw that he had been
embracing fire and that he must repent and remove it or it would
destroy him. He nodded his head that this was true, so I did not ask
him what it was. I could see that the Lord wanted him to plant 3
more churches in the mountains but the enemy had sent people in to
the church to destroy him. I gave him instructions on how to redeem
the land and what he must do so the Lord would be able to protect
him. He was very happy because everything the Lord had said was true
and now he knew he would be okay.
As I went to pray for one
couple I could tell someone had trouble breathing. I put my hands on
the man; no it wasn’t him. I put my hands on the woman; no it wasn’t
her. I looked up and asked, who is having trouble breathing I can
tell it is someone and it is serious, who is it? At first no one
spoke. Then a man very near where I was praying lifted his hand. I
put my hand on his chest. Yes this was the man. He had been crushed
in a car wreck some years before and his bones still crushed his
lungs. It was very painful for him to breath. He had been doing the
work of the Lord before the accident but now he could do nothing. He
felt the Lord had forgotten him. But as we prayed he was totally
healed, now he could do the work of the Lord and now he knew the
Lord had not forgotten him.
As we prayed for the different
pastors the Lord moved in prophecy and power until the tears flowed.
They were very grateful and very encouraged. Each word was very
specific and detailed enough that they knew it was exactly their
situations in detail. Because of length I won’t go into detail but
the Lord moved mightily. I also taught these pastors about redeeming
the land and perhaps our ETH Brother Martin will be able to go back
and help them redeem the land in their area.
Stronghold of 3
and 4 Thursday went to have a house meeting at a home in
Kalimpong. The area was extremely demonic. When we went to the top
of the roof they pointed out why. Right next door up the hill was a
very powerful Hindu Temple, just below it was a huge Catholic
Compound that had been built by taking a Buddhist monastery apart
for building material, this made a spiritual link between the
existing Buddhist monastery (that was just on the other side of the
street) and the Catholic Compound. So there were 3 powerful temples
so to speak in one small area. Why? The Lord began to say over and
over 3 and 4. Three powers evident but another power in the ground
made four. Then I found out that this entire area used to be a
graveyard. I knew the enemy was seeking power through spilt blood in
the ground. The graveyard was not the answer but whatever the power
was in the ground, that power caused the graveyard to be built there
to obtain strength from the blood in it.
But there was more
and I could feel it. Something more ancient than people would know,
the Lord would have to tell us. Many had dropped dead going to one
of the temples. So whatever was there was powerful. The Lord showed
me that beneath it all was a deep cavern. I could see in the spirit
that it was full of bones and had once been used to trap souls. It
was very ancient and would have gone back within a couple of
generations of Noah. Then I remembered that Nimrod and Sepharamis
worshiped in huge caverns in the earth. Their rituals were very
bloody and demonic, much human blood was shed. This cavern was like
that. But at some point a landslide had covered the entrance. Then
the power in the cavern wanting more power caused a graveyard there.
Then eventually it drew the three temples to multiply its power,
both to drink in the worship and affect the people.
Interesting to note that an offshoot of the river runs
through the cavern. If you will remember the last time we were in
India we discovered the network of the enemy through the waterways.
So now we understood why this was an extremely powerful area.
The next day the Lord sowed me that the cavern is the
treasure trove of the enemy. It is a great power source but it can
be drained like a battery. Then the surface things will begin to
whither and die like something with no root. The Lord said the power
is the Prince of Bhutan, which surprised me. His name is Thimpu. He
has no form that we would recognize. He is not the Black Thunder
Dragon of Bhutan that I have seen before.
Bhutan legally
owns most of Kalimpong, (India leases it for an annual fee) though
from ancient times it was called by another name, it is still part
of the original area that is now Bhutan. But land that is occupied
is a legal thing, who is in possession of the land is a legal
statement that we can decree and that is India. This power (Thimpu)
is still connected to Bhutan and fed by Bhutan. If we cut off the
source from Bhutan it will be easily defeated. One of those sources
is the water that flows both by river and also underground. Thimpu
is the one that has been harassing and attacking me because he
senses danger but the Lord will not allow him to attack as he would
like to. Thank you for your prayers.
Once the power supply
line from Bhutan has been cut then all the stored power must be
drained into hell and then the cavern must be sealed off so that no
power can flow in or out. The Lord said Thimpu would then leave and
go back to Bhutan proper when we do that. We cannot contain him and
we must not attack him head on. But when we shut down his power
supply he will have to leave. The 3 temples above ground are like 3
plants that will soon wither and die with no power to feed them.
The Lord said that Bhutan has 3 princes though Bhutan is
very small, only 2 million people, because it was a beginning place
for much evil and a source of evil. It was also where demonic powers
were trained and sent out and assigned to other places since ancient
times. (Though it is not the only one.) That cavern was a beginning
place, a place or origins of great evil and a great power source
guarded by one of their 3 princes. We must lock it down.
Please be in prayer as we ask the Lord how to move forward
now in battling this huge force. We must be very careful to follow
his lead every footstep.
Lava Many of you will remember
some of the powerful spiritual battles we had in Lava 2 years ago,
especially at Tiffin. Now we went to Lava for another reason, to
hold crusades and seminars. What a break through. As we went in it
grew cloudy and EXTREMLY cold. There are no heaters, so when you are
cold you are just cold. It’s the first time I could see my breath as
I was teaching. The teaching went well. I taught the morning session
and Bob Baldwin taught the afternoon session. The evening session
was to be a youth rally handled completely by Jesus Ministries.
As we were preparing to leave a mother approached us for
prayer for her child because of constant accidents. It was like
something was trying to kill the child (he was about 6 I think, and
all bruised and banged up). When I started to pray I was informed
that this family was all new Christians. The father had been a very
high Buddhist lama. (The monastery being just over our building at
the top of the hill.) This father in order to gain more power had
lived in a cave for two years. Now he and his family were Christians
and they had many problems.
When I laid hands on the child I
could tell this was a huge demon. We all gathered together to pray
for the child and had quite a fight but he was delivered. Then the
father came and wanted prayer. He also had an extremely large demon
and we had quite a battle. It is important at times like that to
severe all contracts and covenants of the past because of the new
covenant in the Blood of Jesus Christ. They are now a new creation.
This gives a statement of legal ground. It was evident that he had
given his wife and children to this power thinking it was a good
thing to do and now we had to make legal statements to remove the
enemy’s legal rights to them.
Finally the mother came for
prayer. She had many demons and was the worst by far. She kept
twittering and making sounds and thrashing about. At one point
trying to hit and kick and fling herself about with all her might.
It took several people to hold her. I saw a flock of small black
birds in her. (I had never seen these birds in India but as we were
driving back I saw several.) They were speaking, I love the Lord;
even a few times saying it in English (she wasn’t able to speak
English but the spirit could). But they never said Jesus. It took
some time to remove them and longer to remove what seemed to be a
nest. Then we had to deal with something called the seed of the
dragon. Still she was thrashing about. Then I saw the tail of the
crocodile in her. I remembered one pastor telling me about the
spirit of the crocodile on a near by hill a few years before, so I
at least had a point of reference.
It was a big battle and
even though I knew the battle was over she wasn’t acting like it.
Gamsho came and told her to stop speaking in tongues and speak to
God in her own language using the name of Jesus Christ. Then the
battle was over. Evidently she was speaking in demonic tongues. So
as soon as we commanded something to leave; she was commanding it to
come back through these demonic tongues. When she stopped and spoke
to the Lord in her own language the battle was over.
As we
walked outside the sky now was suddenly clear and warmer. Their
deliverances and the unusually extremely cold weather were
connected. When they were delivered the weather was released as
well. All through the battle the enemy threatened and spoke loudly
but one gets used to tuning that out. The enemy is not someone we
listen to, we only are interested in what Jesus has to
say.
ALL FALL DOWN The next day we again drove to Lava to
minister in a special seminar and crusade. We had many more people
today. Several of the pastors had come a long way. The morning
ministry was well received and I wasn’t as cold because I dressed in
many layers of clothes. In the afternoon we were to have a short
teaching and then pray for people. (In between sessions people even
followed me to the bathroom for prayer. That was a first.)
I
began to teach the people what I wish I could teach all of God’s
people. When we pray and lay hands on you it is not about us. We are
only a small part of the overall picture. There are many people
praying for us that you cannot see but they are here by their
prayers. But also the people who are there must be involved. They
must either pray or worship, because if they are not plugged in they
will suck the anointing away. If we insult the Holy Spirit He will
leave. It is not a spectator sport. I told them I would not allow
people to go in and out and mill about as they did the day before
and then I stationed guards at the doors. I told them if necessary I
would arrest them and I am big enough to do it. (I’m really not so
tough but being accountable to God causes me to take my
responsibility to the authority He has given me seriously.)
I
made it clear that we must treat the Holy Spirit with respect and
honor and not lightly if we want to see the power of God. I told
them they must all be a part of what God is doing. I also explained
how the music anointing flows with the ministry anointing and how
important that is. We must all flow together. If people start going
in and out or milling about and talking the flow of power will stop.
Then we must all repent before we can ask the Holy Spirit to return.
I have tried this all over the world and this is what works.
First we prayed for all the pastors, elders, leaders,
prophets and prayer warriors. It was powerful beyond words. Soon
they were all down. Then I told them to join in the ministry time by
either intercession or praying for people (as there were about 200
people to pray for) but mostly they just assisted us. Suddenly the
fire hit me. Every person I touched was down as though they had been
shot by a gun. I felt like I was on fire and if someone didn’t take
some of it I would explode. People were going down faster than we
could bring more people up and the catchers couldn’t keep up with it
though there were several to catch. The floors were full and I was
saying bring people up for prayer I need to give this fire to
someone.
Everyone was taking part. Key intercessors stood
near the front and interceded. Pastors and leaders were praying with
us and the flow of fire was intense. Everyone we touched went down
quickly. People were laying on the floor laughing, crying, shouting,
screaming or shaking. People were healed, delivered and touched.
Rev. Larry said that one person he touched jumped up a couple of
feet before landing on the floor because the power was so strong.
Then suddenly the power that had been flowing non-stop for some time
just stopped. I looked up to see people going in and out. My guards
at the doors were gone. People were talking. I stopped the music and
told the people they had to be quiet. The power that had been
awesome had stopped because they had grieved and insulted the Holy
Spirit and now we must all repent.
We all repented and
waited for the power to build back up. On the stage behind me I saw
teens going back and forth on the stage to get into their bags. I
ran up the stairs to the stage and ran them out forcefully. One of
them joined us and stood in line for prayer but the rest left. I am
accountable to God and I fear God much more than you I told the
people. Now as we prayed the power built back up again. The people
were amazed that they could tell the difference when they were
disrespectful to the Holy Spirit and the power left and when they
repented and prayed and power returned. I knew the Lord wasn’t done
and I didn’t want to end on grieving the Holy Spirit.
Soon
people were falling under the power again. Some leaned forcefully
into my hand as though to say your not going to push me down lady. I
just laughed because I try to never push people but down they went
anyway. Then one young man came forward. I told him you did not want
to come forward but you couldn’t stop yourself. He said that was
true. I told him the Lord was going to deliver him. It was intense
and powerful as the Lord began to strip the drugs from his veins. He
was a drug addict. He began to scream and cry and so did I. What
happens is they simply can’t handle the intensity of what needs to
happen so we can join with them and feel it with them helping them
push through. He cried a long time. That young man wouldn’t have
been delivered if the people hadn’t learned to respect the Holy
Spirit and repent.
Several were healed and delivered,
several were saved and the Lord was able to finish all that He
wanted to accomplish. But most of all the churches and leaders that
had gathered there learned something – they actually got to see this
truth in action for themselves. You must respect the Holy Spirit for
Him to move powerfully and if you are in charge of the meeting or
ministry you are accountable to God personally for how you handled
the authority He gave you. It was wonderful.
One of the
mountain women that is a powerful intercessor and prophetess saw a
vision during prayer. She saw the heavens opened and many demons and
curses fleeing from people and from the building as the glory of God
came down. They saw the Lord claim that area and He said that what
He had started there would remain. Praise God the body of Christ
must learn to flow together. It’s not a one-person show.
107
Years Old In Baramunber a Kuma (Grandma) Christian woman is 107
years old a still doing well. She is able to tend her garden and get
about on her own. She got saved when she was 104, before that she
was Hindu. I have a picture of her and will put it on my website
when I return to the states.
Easter Sunday We ministered
in Brother Martin’s church in Kalimpong. Dr. Bob took the main part
of the service and I followed up with a prophecy the Lord gave me
for the church. Several were healed and ministered to later as we
prayed for people. We also got to meet a wonderful couple from the
UK with YWAM that have been Kalimpong 10 years.
(Prophecy is
a non-stop stream now and though I have flowed in prophecy for many,
many years it now seems to flow so easily and so continuously and so
comfortably, with such assurance that it is a great blessing. Many
are ministered to as we travel with them or pass them here and
there. It’s not all in meetings. Almost always the Lord will be so
detailed in the prophecy that they know only the Lord could have
known that. Then they receive the word or encouragement much better
because they know it is real and personal just for them.) In the
evening we had a house meeting for the Mishra family and the Lord
moved mightily there as well.
The next morning we had a
small meeting and we were able to pray with people and saw several
healed and curses broken. I have to tell the people whatever the
Lord says and sometimes the interpreter doesn’t like to say those
things but they do. I put my hand on one woman’s nose and told her
she likes to put her nose into other peoples business and talk about
other people but when she does that the problem or trouble she is
gossiping about comes to her home. The Lord has wanted to bless her
but couldn’t because of the gossip. The woman admitted this was true
and the Lord was able to touch her.
Another woman was healed
of kidney stones and pains in her arm. One man was healed in his
head and back, cancer lumps gone, one girl’s hearing was healed and
she felt a demonic spirit leave her, etc. I always have them check
the healing and make sure that it is all gone and not just a bit
better. One woman I knew wouldn’t like to hear what I had to say.
She brought the paper work for some land where her family wanted to
build a house. I told her the enemy had his hand on the paperwork
because she had old cursed items in her house that she needed to get
rid of. When she cleansed her house of the cursed items her land
would be released. She admitted later that she had an antique tribal
musical instrument. It had been used to worship idols and it was
bringing that curse into her home. She didn’t like to get rid of it
but she said she would.
Nepal Shut Down Please pray. Many
pastors were going to come to the Prophetic Leadership Conference
from Nepal but Nepal has been closed. Roads have been shut down, in
many places telephone shut down. They reported that all TV channels
are only showing what the military wants to show. So all but one of
the pastors could not come from Nepal (others are coming from many
other places though). He was able to come because he lives on the
border but had to walk a long way.
It is possible that we
may be able to hook up with these ministers at the conference in
Jaigon if this strike will let up soon. So please pray that the Lord
will make a way. The government in Nepal is not doing well and the
Maoist Terrorist are always active in the mountains.
Thank
You I thank you for your prayers. We still have some needs but I
know the Lord will meet them. I know you are here with us by your
prayers and the Lord will bless you for being His prayer
partner.
