In 2011 I was working at the Healing Rooms at New Song Church in Medford, Oregon. All clients had left for the night and we still had about thirty minutes before we would close up and go home. I went into a room where 4 men were gathered to pray. I felt strongly prompted by the Holy Spirit to ask if any of them saw anything demonic on me or in me.
One man in the group was a man I’d never met. He calmly and kindly said he saw an evil spirit of lies and witchcraft clinging to my head like a helmet. He said it had tentacles in my ears that reached into my brain. He asked if I wanted to be delivered and if he could put his fingers in my ears. I said yes. He did this and commanded all lies and the spirit of witchcraft to leave my head, my brains, my mind. He commanded my ears and mind to open to hearing God clearly and accurately. When the man pulled his fingers out of my ears, I felt and heard a suction-like sound and I felt something evil wriggle out of my brain and on my head right before the man lifted the demonic spirit from me and threw it away. He told me that, from that point onward, I would no longer hear the demons that had been lying to me all my life and I would hear God’s voice clearly. Then he reached into Heaven and put a crown on my head.
I thanked the man, crying with a sense of relief and joy. We went our separate ways and, the following week, I asked my other Healing Rooms team members who the man was who’d prayed for me and they didn’t know. They remembered him being in the room when he was ministering deliverance to me, but they didn’t know who he was or why he was even allowed to pray for people in the Healing Rooms ministry. We’ve never seen that man since. Was he an angel? Maybe. I know he wasn’t Jesus because I saw no nail prints in his hands. But from that deliverance night onward I have never once struggled with thoughts of self-hatred, suicide, or depression. My life was dramatically transformed from that moment.
Now I want deliverance for every Christian. Not surprisingly, I could find no training in deliverance ministry nearby, so where did I go? New Song Church in Medford, of course! I have received a great deal of good training from Antony Wanjohi’s deliverance ministry training class on Tuesday nights and I’ve made wonderful friends in the process. These friends (mainly Tamyra and Kelly) are strong warriors for God against the kingdom of darkness as they continually set people free from demonic oppression, and I’ve had them minister deliverance to our small groups in our home. Our dear fellow Christians have experienced dramatic, life-changing freedom from the bondage of the enemy through deliverance and I will continue to host deliverance ministry meetings for of my fellow Believers in need of freedom. All glory and praise to Jesus!
