"And they said believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved and thy house." Acts 16:31
A friend and I actually had this Facebook conversation months ago, I assume...he doesn't mind me sharing his name... LOL meh... I won't though, I will just call my friend A.G. lol At any rate... he actually began ministering to me and didn't even know it! This message pretty much speaks for itself! Such an amazing, encouraging testimony. NEVER underestimate the power of God. I could go on and on about how he just started speaking over my life man, it was amazing. At any rate, here's a piece of our convo which mainly talks about his sister. I pray that God will soften your hearts, open your eyes, and allow you to receive this truth: Jesus is REAL the Holy Spirit is powerful, and God is sovereign!
"Yes...My friend from Ga State actually visited me yesterday. He used to be my best friend. After high school I was totally changed through Christ...and all of my friends went off to college. It just seems like they don't care about where they are going...and don't realize it's wrong.
I need to pray so much for them We need to be so bold for Christ. Filled with His love and His power. He has the power to bring the lost through us.
My sister was on the wrong path. She's 29. She's been through marital abuse. She was beat up and had two miscarriages. She became an alcoholic for many years. She practiced witchcraft and voodoo for a long time as well.
Well I started praying for her over the summer. God really pushed me in deep agonizing prayer to declare her a child of God. I pleaded the blood of Jesus over her for so long. It seemed like every time I talked to her she was getting worse.
I remember one day a month ago, I was praying for her in the woods and she called me, saying she was hearing voices and was going to kill herself. Well, I rushed to her apartment and talked to her. She was crying, and had a big knife in her hand...It was so scary. I just listened to her. She wanted to go camping or get away from the place...
So I said okay we can go camping. I invited a few guy friends who were strong in Christ. We were all around the fire talking. The mood at first was awkward. She was really rude to my friends.
She asked if we would read a psalm to her. So one of my friends began reading. My sister started crying...then she started laughing in a bad way. She was possessed by an evil spirit.
I went off and started asking God to take over the whole situation.
I looked back and 3 of my guy friends had their hands stretched forth to her praying over her. She got very violent with us. She was cussing and yelling. We prayed over her all night. Rebuking the evil spirit. The things that were coming out of her mouth was not the sister I knew. At one point the evil spirit in her said, "Im not coming out of this body because it will be used for the Kingdom of God."
So we rebuked that and commanded it to leave in JESUS NAME!
We called our pastor and told him what was going on.
Finally she went to sleep at around 4 am. We kept praying over her. Declaring her a child of God and pleading the blood of Jesus.
The next morning we woke up...My friends already left the camp. I think they were scared. lol I was there with her alone...She was at peace. So i took her home and she kept saying I need to be saved...
I said you are and led her in prayer. She was saying she wanted to go to church...The next day she called me and said she threw away all of the darkness in her life. She read the bible and God told her everything she was doing was a lie.
That day she came to church with me at Free Chapel "the Turn"
It's a college ministry. She completely surrendered everything at the altar and was filled with the Holy Spirit. It was amazing. Last week she was baptized. I'm so thankful.
I'm trying to say that Our God will bring back the lost friends and family in our lives. No evil spirit in the world can hold on to them.
Fight the enemy in prayer and take back what is lost! Devil has NO authority! JESUS IS LORD OVER ALL."
