THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS
What an awesome trip we had this time in India. God’s moved
mightily. Many were saved, healed, delivered and restored. We also
had several battles that we are sure stopped wars and changes entire
regions. We want to thank you for your prayers. There were many
dangers on this trip and your prayers were so important. Because of
the political unrest in this region we did encounter a few things.
Only 5 minutes after leaving one area, two bombs exploded on the
exact spot where our vehicle had been. We encountered many protests
and strikes and were detained in one mountainous region as all roads
were closed due to the strikes. One of the men assigned by the
government to monitor us and to go with us into a certain area
(praise God he was a Christian) had such a heated argument at the
Nepal border with the guard (who had a gun and was missing some
bullets from his belt as though recently used), that we grew very
concerned. It was only after prayer that the Lord began to turn the
situation around. I had no desire to spend time in a Nepal prison.
As most of you know, we did not have even the minimum amount of
money we needed for this trip when we left the USA. But God said go
and it would be taken care of, so we went and mentioned it to no
one. God is big enough to take care of it. On a few occasions I have
received offerings in North India but never more than $200-$300
total, which has always been very helpful. But this time, all of the
funds we needed were given in North India by the Christians of North
India. Praise God. Do you know what that means? It is so much more
than us passing a test of faith or just that we got the funds. The
people of North India have learned to invest in what the Lord is
doing in India and the Lord will reward and honor that for them. As
a matter of fact I think it was important that I didn’t have enough
money when I left so they could have the chance to give and be a
part of the work in North India. Though we did not tell them of our
need, the Lord moved on their hearts in an awesome way and we
received little offerings in many places that added up to exactly
what we needed, with just enough left to get us home safely. Praise
God.
TOO MUCH TO TELL
The problem is what to tell out of all that happened. There
were so many miracles and so many awesome things but we can only
tell a few. Our days were long and full. On most days we were lucky
to get four hours of sleep and spent much of the travel time
catching up on our prayer times. This was certainly no trip to slack
up on the weapons of our prayer time. Needless to say on occasion
exhaustion would set in but the Lord always gave us the grace we
needed to continue and be strong.
We first went to Kalimpong via Delhi, Kalimpong being our
central location for North India. There we were delighted to work
with Elder Martin Mishra again. He is very sensitive concerning
warfare and carries an intense authority. We also worked with Pastor
Anil. He is a seasoned veteran of the Lord in warfare and is very
discerning. With me from the USA was Rev. Linda Miller. She was
literally a lifesaver on this trip. She not only could preach and
prophecy and move in healing and deliverance but was also mightily
used in the battles. This was our core team.
I want to talk about this just for a moment. So many people are
all about ‘their’ ministry and what God is doing through them. They
want to be validated and valued and I understand that need. But God
likes to use teams. When one goes down the others pull them out. We
guard each other and seek only to do the will of God and not to
exalt ourselves. In this environment the Lord can do anything He
wants and He did. So please understand that though I may be the
point person, the team did everything together. It is important to
have a team you can trust when you are entering not only extreme
demonic situations but also physically threatening situations. We
had a team we could trust.
Please continue to pray for them for a season. Many of them
took some deep hits during the battles, and also had their families
attacked for what we were doing. The enemy never fights fair. In one
day (the enemy being angry and knowing we came to fight) one’s
mother became very ill, another’s daughter fell and was badly hurt,
and the other’s sister was not only made ill but physically felt the
enemy jump on the bed and smack her. It was serious. Please keep
them and their families in prayer and remember me as well. Though
the battles were gloriously won, the enemy never stops just because
we leave.
The first night we were in Kalimpong, we were very tired after
traveling for 3 days to get there, but already there was a line of
people waiting for prayer and all were healed. The next day there
was a steady stream of people all needing prayer and each need was
met, Praise God.
GANTOK
Then we headed to Gantok in North Sikkim, near the Tibet
border. I knew something was wrong, as the Lord had already alerted
me of it. But as we approached the city I saw the clouds like a
giant hand hovering over the city. If you will remember the previous
year we had blocked a road the enemy was using to send curses from
China. China was seeking to make spiritual alliances and send curses
in past the border in order to pave the way for war and to seize the
area. Indeed China politically states that Sikkim does belong to
them. This wind I saw over the area was China’s next attempt to
prepare the way for that war to take place so they could seize the
area.
The wind came from Tibet and then down through Nepal into
Sikkim from the west. As they verified for me, the wind and weather
had been extremely unusual and violent. Coming from Nepal was
unexpected and they hoped it would confuse us. I could tell the
cloud, that in the spirit looked like a giant hand, was lowering
some every day and if it was allowed to come all the way down, it
would seize the area and then that area would be lost to China. The
effects were depression, anger, tiredness, and strange overpowering
emotions that could not be explained. As I questioned many in the
area I found this was true and that it was affecting everyone. The
church had undergone a split and was having other troubles because
of it. Something had to be done. After a couple of days of meetings
in Gantok I told them we must go to Prayer Mountain and there fight
the battle to seal off the winds at the borders. On the way we had
to pass the Rumtek Monastery where I had already fought and won
several battles in previous years. There were many demons trying to
threaten us along the way but we had special angelic
protection.
The roads (I loosely use the term roads) were rugged to say the
least and at last we had to climb the mountain on foot. The Lord
gave us the decrees and the order of the battle. We stationed
ourselves along the ridge, with the church leaders in that area. It
was very powerful. We commanded the winds to leave and put up a
spirit wall all along the border that blocked them and stationed
angels about it to protect the borders. Then we blessed the area and
released the angels to begin to restore the people. The change in
the atmosphere was immediate. Praise God. We have to see these wars
coming before hand and stop them in the spirit. It’s our
responsibility.
While in Gantok we had some wonderful meetings. So many were
healed and delivered and several saved. But one story stands out
above the others. A Presbyterian Pastor asked that we come to his
house to pray for him. He was bedridden. He had a huge tumor that
was inoperable and the doctors had sent him home to die. He was in
terrible pain, a mere skeleton of a man. As we walked in the door he
said, “I know when you pray for me I will be healed.” And we agreed.
So we gathered around him and began to pray as the Lord revealed the
details of his illness and how to pray for it. In a short time he
was pain free and completely well. Later at one of the meetings his
two sons came to meet me and told me “Our father was healed of
cancer and now we want to be saved.” Praise God.
In one meeting a young man came. He spoke with Rev. Linda and
said he wanted to be saved. But his cocky manner and evil tone led
her to get me involved. But he told me a different story, saying he
was already saved. I told him he was certainly not saved and he knew
it. I told him he was entrenched in the dark hidden secrets of
Satan, which he admitted. I told him he came to stop us and attack
us, which he admitted. I asked him, “You think you can fool me but
do you also think you can fool God?” His reply, “I know I can.” Then
I asked, “Do you think you are more powerful than God.” And he
replied, “yes, I know I am.” So I told him, “This night when the
angel of the Lord visits you, you will know God is not fooled.” So I
turned to leave. He was upset. “You have to pray for me.” He said.
(They bank on our well-known humanism, which makes us easy targets.)
“I don’t have to pray for you, you are an admitted emissary of Satan
with no intentions of changing, you have come to hurt us. Leave.”
And I turned and walked away. Evidently he came to the youth on
occasion and caused much trouble. I warned them strictly to guard
the sheep from this wolf and finally he left. He was so shocked that
I didn’t ‘have’ to pray for him as he thought. We should all learn
to be discerning. We have to obey God and He warns us when it’s a
trap. Gantok was one miracle after another and the power of God
flowed so that crowds would fall under the power of God at one time,
with just one touch. Then we went back to Kalimpong for one
night to re-pack and journey to Rimbik.
RIMBIK
Rimbik is high in the Himalayan Mountains. The roads are windy
and treacherous. We began to notice many huge demons in the area.
This area bordered Nepal so it was spiritually strategic for the
enemy. A huge flat-head gray rock snake that I saw in the spirit
made the people hardhearted and difficult to deal with. Then we saw
a large dinosaur. I had never seen one quite like it in prehistoric
records. It was huge and very ferocious. For time’s sake I will not
go into the details about this creature but he ruled this area and
was planning on expanding his territory ruthlessly. He had caused
one war a few years before and was preparing to start another.
The one thing we noticed most of all were the teenage boys.
They were all like stepford wives so to speak, ruled by a common
host. Often they would follow us or come to the meeting hoping to
trap us but the Lord would reveal it and we would call them out on
it. You could always tell because they could not look you in the
eyes and they had rapid eye movement, their eyes darting from one
side to the other continually. One young man thought he was so
cunning but the Lord revealed his plan, that he had come to kill us
and when it was revealed he admitted it and laughed at us. “I serve
the one that is more powerful.” He said. I said, “You will indeed
find out who is the more powerful when you go insane sitting at your
computer.” We were deeply concerned about these teenage boys and we
can only pray that they are released now that the demon has been
defeated. It was a sad sight to see.
The battle with the dinosaur demon was intense. This area was
full of demons, souls and traps. But the Lord decreed the decree
that locked the demon into his cave of origin forever. The people
were much amazed at the change in the atmosphere. It was a lengthy
battle but the important thing to tell is the Lord prevailed and
released the people. Then later during worship the dragon bird from
Nepal began to attack. He thought we were already gone but because
of the political strike we were still there. This dragon bird unlike
the one we battled last year has no feathers and looks more like a
dinosaur bird. I called the people to worship, which was the way the
Lord said to attack this creature and soon he was defeated and
trapped on the Nepal side of the mountain. Then I saw these little
shadowy creatures begin to cut him into pieces and carry him away. I
had never seen such a thing. These evidently were creatures the
dragon bird had tortured over many years and now that he was
harmless they were seeking vengeance. He will never rise
again.
So many people were healed and delivered in Rimbik but one
story stands out above the others. We were going to go to the
church, which adjoins the house, to worship when someone told us one
of the women had taken sick suddenly as though from an attack and
was in bed. At first it didn’t sound serious so we were going to go
worship and then come pray for her later but the Lord dealt with me
to pray for her now. As we walked into the room I could tell she was
dying. As we began to pray I could see she was having a heart attack
and a stroke. Rev. Linda is also a nurse and when I told her that
she could see the symptoms of it as well.
Then I saw in the spirit that a huge blood clot hit her heart
and tore a bit of the main blood vessel going out from the heart and
also clogged it blocking it completely. Part of the blood clot had
broken into three pieces and these pieces hit the brain at the back
of the head. As we assessed all of this, we realized we were losing
her fast. “Not on our shift.” I cried and as Rev. Linda concentrated
on the brain, I concentrated on the heart and blood vessel and the
clot. After a few minutes she was fine and we told her that though
she was healed, her body had been through quite a shock and we
wanted her to rest but she was in the evening service. This attack
came from the dragon bird. Praise God we were able to stop it by the
grace of God.
There were so many other things in the area, like the area of
the cliffs of death and how drastically the people of that area were
affected but we don’t have time to talk of it all. The enemy would
often make noises in the night, turn the lights on and off, throw
things, bump us or try various scare tactics. Once, while we were
driving, I felt the demons enter the vehicle and we could feel
things moving in the seats under us. We must not be moved by these
scare tactics, we have the true authority and they know it. Praise
God we have authority. In one church area (another long mountain
walk) the enemy tried to stop our vehicle. Many had been saved,
healed and delivered and he was angry, so the van wouldn’t start. I
was told we would have no choice but to spend the night there. “No
we won’t.” I said running over to put my hands on the front of the
van and encouraging others to do the same. “Let’s pray.” I was told
it was the battery so we prayed for the battery but nothing
happened. Then I asked the Lord and he said the wire had been cut.
So we prayed again and this time I said, aim your prayers at the
wire. Then the van started and didn’t have another problem. We have
to realize we have the authority and the power, not the enemy.
Sometimes we have to tell people hard things but if we don’t
tell them the truth their blood will be on our hands. Of course this
makes it a bit hard for the interpreters. I told one young man, you
are married but you are having an affair. At first he tried to deny
it. I made him look me in the eyes and finally he admitted it. “Are
you willing to stop sinning and repent?” I asked. I knew he wasn’t.
Finally he said, “No.” Then I cannot pray for you I said and turned
and walked away. That may seem harsh to you but this man will be
confronted with his sins and perhaps will turn in the end. That’s
what’s important.
One young man came for prayer, I saw the curse was trying to
kill him. So I told him the story and he admitted it and later told
me more of the details. His father was a high level Buddhist. He was
hiring priest to curse his son for becoming a Christian because it
dishonored him. They had a small boy, and the priest was cursing him
as well. It was a constant flow. The Buddhist father had married his
daughter after his wife passed (by questionable means) and had
openly killed his other daughter-in-law because he didn’t like her.
This young man and his Christian wife and son lived in the same
house with this Buddhist father. As we broke the curses I began to
advise them strictly to find another place to live, which they said
they would do.
SANDAKPU
Both the battles in Gantok and the battles in Rimbik were
leading up to bigger battles with the North. These huge demons are
trapped in the North Country and want to be released through the
mountain gateways into all the earth. (That is why flying over the
North was a strategic plan of the enemy. On our trip to India our
plane went directly up to the North Pole, across and the directly
down to Delhi. It reversed this pattern on the return trip. This
caused the flights to be long and was so unusual people on the plane
were speaking of it.) This was not an accident but part of the
enemy’s plan to have opportunity to strike at us.
If these demons were released they would destroy the earth, as
we know it. (We don’t want to take the time to explain in detail now
but this is something we have been fasting and praying about and
fighting for over a year.) Stopping this was our main objective. We
traveled the rugged mountain dirt roads to 12,000 feet and spent the
night in cold primitive conditions. There were more people with us
than the four-team members and one of them was mightily used by the
enemy to betray and hurt us. But the Lord took that situation and
used it as a decoy, so we could do the real battle. The Lord can use
even our hurts and betrayals when we give them to Him.
I cannot go into details about this battle, as there are still
some aspects the enemy doesn’t know but in an intense exchange, the
Lord won and literally took the gateway from the earth realm so that
it is no longer available for the enemy’s plans. It is only by the
grace of God that we could be involved in such a battle and still
live. We are grateful that God enables us to be a part of what He is
doing in the earth and we are very aware of how much we need your
prayers at times like these. We of course forgive the people who
hurt and betrayed us and recognize the enemy’s hand in it all. It is
now between them and the Lord, for we have forgiven them, as we as
Christians always must.
We saw many demons come from the surrounding areas. This was
because the local demon we were also fighting sent out a distress
signal. When we discovered this we went to spot the signal went out
from (as drums) and stopped it in prayer. This made things much
easier as many of these other demons returned to their own
territory. Most of these demons were from Northern Nepal, as our
journey followed the Nepal border, many times crossing it. Though
these entities were not our assignment I will not forget them, as I
know one day we will indeed encounter them in battle.
On the way back to Kalimpong, though we were weary, we stopped
and ministered at one church and encouraged them. The Lord moved in
healing and salvation, it is always wonderful to see blind eyes
opened, deaf ears that hear, hearts healed, backs straighten and
become painless, and lumps dissolve. It was a good meeting.
THE COMPOUND
We thought we were returning to Kalimpong but the Lord had
another plan and we are grateful that our wonderful host Elder
Martin was sensitive to the Lord’s leading with our schedule. As we
went to an area called Ghoom, not far from Darjeeling we could feel
the demonic activity in the land. Pastor Ugyen and his wife Phubzam
had been in touch with me via email for over a year. Little did I
know they had been praying for 3 years to meet me and that the Lord
would use me on their behalf. At that time they were stationed in
Katmandu, Nepal. I call it demonville, a very dangerous place. As
the king was ousted from Nepal and democratic elections were held
(rigged elections) the Maoist won. Isn’t that interesting that the
Maoist won, when before they were the terrorists everyone was so
scared of. They of course do not believe in any gods and want to
kill all who do. They are extremely anti-Christian. So it was time
for Pastor Ugyen to return home from this mission field.
There were many houses on the compound and one church that was
115 years old founded by the Finland Nazarene Church. God quickly
began to download the history of the place to me and I began to try
to verify what He was showing me as much as possible. Every
family there, mainly related to the elderly pastor, were hurt and
oppressed. They experienced constant trouble. Then I began to see
and verify the following story. In the land was a huge demon that
looked something like a giant black grub worm but made of much
sterner stuff. In ancient times he was awakened by digging. He lived
in the caves beneath the compound and now being awakened he needed
to be fed. At that time he inspired a road that traveled far to the
north and south. Everyone then had to pass his area. A small village
was built to sustain travelers. After many hundreds of years a great
earthquake changed that. Again the demon, needed fed, so he
encouraged the people of the area to build a graveyard there, which
graveyard the current family on the compound knew about.
Then 115 years ago the people who owned the land wanted to sell
it. No one would by it because there was once a graveyard there and
it was known to be haunted. So when the foreigners came from
Finland, they were amazed that they were able to purchase the huge
compound so cheaply. Their church ministered to the locals and the
Tibetans. The church made a covenant with the locals and the
Tibetans that they would never leave them. After many years of
struggle the home office commanded the little group to return to
Finland. The covenant was broken and the spirit of broken covenant
in the land was something that had to be dealt with. I saw in a
vision that one of the Finish men married a Tibetan woman. The child
was full of demons and died at the age of two. I knew we had to find
that grave as key point.
When the Finish people left the compound was sold cheaply to
the existing ministry, that has had a series of unexplained deaths
and strange events and much trouble. We began to map out quickly
what needed to be done, because it was time for us to go and there
was much to deal with. There were two caves we had to find that were
crucial, which a couple of them knew about and had even seen in
their dreams. Several of them when they were children, had seen
ghosts there. We needed to find the point the ghosts crossed onto
the property from a little river. There were places of blood and
ritual from the ancient times and even a huge monstrous religious
spirit. We mapped it all out and began.
Pastor Ugyen had a long metal pole, like a long crowbar, he
would strike into the ground when we found the spot. When he struck
the first spot, which was the grave of the demon girl we all felt
the strike in the ground as though he had struck us. It was the spot
to begin. Each spot was different and many things were taken
care of. Several of the children that saw demons in the night and
shadow creatures from the caves, would now be free of fear. The
large demon was locked down in the earth never to rise again, as it
had been long before. There were too many details to tell it all but
the end result was an amazing peace and a healing in the people and
in the land. The entire family got involved in cleansing the land.
It was amazing. They are still reporting the amazing difference in
their area. And we not only did as the Lord wanted, but we know we
made some forever friends in this wonderful family.
They travel into remote areas to spread the gospel, in
dangerous places in Bhutan and Nepal and they are working on the
first translation of the bible into Bhutanese, which makes the enemy
very angry. Please keep them in prayer as this is frontline work,
worthy of your prayers.
Finally we returned to Kalimpong where we taught at Pastor
Nundu’s Bible School and had an intense End Time Handmaiden’s
meeting with the prayer warriors and intercessors from the
mountains. One dear friend that speaks no English but has helped me
in many battles, is an old tribal mountain woman named Jilmeth. She
cannot speak English, neither can she read or write but sometimes
when she is praying in tongues she will speak in English and though
it is powerful, at times in can be comical. Some of the phrases are,
“Praise the Lord, Hallelujah, God love ya. Praise the Lord. God love
ya.” It makes me wonder what I am saying when I speak in tongues.
Though all of this was wonderful, my focus was on the final
battle with the North that was coming up.
DARJEELING
It is always a blessing to meet with Pastor and Mrs. Gisshing.
Though he was away on business, she welcomed us to pray in her home.
She is a powerful prophetic prayer warrior and was instrumental in
the battle. The objective; lock down the demons of the north so they
will not try to escape again and stop the war at the Nepal border.
It was an intense battle, as I knew it would be but when God decrees
a decree nothing in heaven or on earth can stand against it. Because
we had fought these demons in the northern part of the USA and in
India we knew we could not leave them to look for another avenue of
escape. It was the Lord, who locked them down, but He has given us
as humans, dominion in the earth and we are the doors He works
through to do His will in the earth.
In one vision Mrs. Gisshing had and we all saw something
similar, there were many dragons on the Nepal border hatching eggs
that had waited hundreds of years to be hatched. Their purpose was
war. Our prayer, please join us in this, is that the armies of
heaven will be released to slay the dragons and crush the eggs, so
the plan of the enemy will be stopped. Amen. The powers of the north
were locked down and the battle was won.
ANDHRA PRADESH
Then the long journey south to Andhra Pradesh. Where as in the
North, in places we were extremely cold, in the south it was
extremely hot. It was quite a change. The Lord told me the schedule
would take an unexpected turn and that it was okay. Shortly after
that I was told that we were going to be flying to Vijaywada Putnam
to have a crusade and stay in Pastor Joshi’s in-laws home. What we
discovered there was amazing. It was a tale most ancient and most
dangerous that had much to do with the family home. Because this is
still a work in progress I do not think it is good to talk about
this battle at this time. We discovered and locked down many things
but some of it is still to be done. To say we made the enemy angry
is an understatement and this one is still trying to retaliate. The
lights would go on and off in the middle of the night and things
would slam to the ground. As usual the enemy is a sore loser. Please
keep Pastor Joshi and his family in prayer as they complete this
battle and especially for their protection.
The crusade, which was conveniently right outside the front
door, went exceptionally well. We had a good turn out and many were
saved and healed. We prayed for a lot more people than attended the
meeting. Once people saw that people were healed, they would go and
get their relatives and their neighbors to be prayed for. It is
miracle evangelism that truly works.
From Vijaywada Putnam we caught a train to Eliru. There we held
two crusades and again the Lord moved mightily. We also held
services in their local church. It was a busy but productive time.
Then from there, because the planes do not fly on certain days, we
had a long drive to Hyberabad and then we flew back to Delhi to
catch a flight back to the USA. From Eliru that was 3 days of
travel.
CONCLUSION
I give God the glory because I cannot think of one incident
where people were not healed. He is awesome. Let me leave you with
this nugget. It was the Lord’s compassion that healed and His
forgiveness paved the way. Usually before I pray for someone I
forgive them of their sins and the sins of their ancestors. I don’t
know of anything in particular that they’ve done but this act of
forgiveness releases them to be able to receive their healing. If
the healing is not flowing, the Lord will often say, “Just love them
for me.” And as the love and compassion flows through me, the person
is healed. God is love and as we become instruments of His love
people will be healed and delivered.
Thank you again for your prayers. |
