In the Market Places
They operate in various forms in the market. The market is one of their major areas of operations, just as the hotel is where they lay in wait for men. In the market, they pick their victims, some pregnant women whose miscarriages they cause to enable them get the blood for their blood banks. Some victims they would accompany to their residence in order to visit such in the nights. This happens to the unbelievers ! Certain fanciful products sold in the market e.g. necklaces, lipsticks, perfumes, and food items such as sardines “Queen of the Coast” etc., have strange origins.
There are certain actions Christians have to watch out, for you might see a lady or perhaps a gentleman who suddenly touches your stomach or any part of your body. It causes sickness. The Christian therefore should, on experiencing this, give the word of command in Jesus' name, scattering or destroying the plans of the devil, etc. And sure enough whatever you scatter or bind here on earth shall be so.
Cultural activities
It is also very important to note that many people get initiated into Satan's activities or get possessed through most of these cultural ceremonies and dances. Most of our cultures are demon oriented. Some through friends, others through reading some pamphlets or novels. Demons hover in the vicinity of every idol. They function through idols in the practice of idolatry (Zec. 10:2). As a definite part of religion, idolatry ascribes divine power to natural agencies and pays divine honour to a created object (Rom. 1:18-22). The Scripture defines idolatry as spiritual adultery (Jer. 3:8-10). Therefore a child of God should have no connection whatsoever, directly or indirectly, with idolatry. So called high life, juju and disco music are inspired by Satan and his demons.
I do remember, that before the Lord saved me, in one of the meetings we had with Satan, he said : “This world is mine and I am going to rule the whole world in my power, and would destroy all who believe in the name of the Righteous One.” Satan does not mention the name of Jesus. If anyone does that in his presence he/ she stands the risk of losing his life. He promised making those of us his agents, governors, etc. Satan is a liar and indeed the father of lies. There were also plans to silence the Christians in Nigeria by restricting importation of Bibles and Christian literature.
He operates through unbelievers in positions of leadership and authority, to initiate anti- Christian policies and programmes. He establishes healing centres which would appear very religious and through them claim souls. These centres usually called spiritual healing homes are all around us. Here many lying wonders are performed to deceive their clients. Satan is very much aware of the second coming of Jesus Christ and constantly urges his agents to hurry and be ardent in their operations, always saying : “We have no time left.” Dear child of God, Satan is not sleeping, why must you sleep !
Chapter 8 : The Believer's Weapons
THE NAME OF JESUS
THE BLOOD OF JESUS
THE WORD OF GOD
CHRISTIAN PRAISES
(Finally brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
Put on the whole armour of God that ye may be able to stand
against the wiles of the devil) Eph. 6:10-11
(And they overcame him by the blood of
the lamb and by the word of their testimony)
Rev. 12:11
I have already said much on this earlier, but just to give a few instances. Please realize that there is POWER in that name of Jesus ! There is Power in the Blood of Jesus ! The Scripture says : “And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also had highly exalted Him, and given Him a Name which is above every name : That at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth and things under the earth : And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” (Phil. 2:8-11). Again the Scripture says : “And they overcame him by the Blood of the Lamb and by the Word of their testimony” (Rev. 12:11). Let the name “Jesus” always be on your lips ! These two, the name and the blood, scatter the plans of Satan, and in fact destroy the strategies of Satan and his agents.
Secondly, you must learn to sing praises to God always. There is power in praises. There was this Pastor - Pastor I.K. (name withheld). He was pastoring a church in Ebute Metta. He became my target and his offences were :
He disturbed our peace by carrying out early morning calls i.e. preaching in the early hours.
He went about with his megaphone and stationed himself at N.° 2 Bus-stop along Akintola Road, Ebute Metta. There he would preach. He would not stop at that but would keep binding demons, etc.
In his church he would preach, exposing the works of darkness, after which he started binding demons.
He prayed a lot.
He was always singing and praising God.
I sent my messengers to him but they could not kill him so I decided to carry out the mission myself. On the said day, I saw him walking along the new G.R.A. A thing worth mentioning here about this Pastor is : any time we went for him, we would see pillars of cloud by his right and left hands, walking along with him, so these hindered us. But this particular day I saw nothing, so I was doubly sure my mission would be very successful. I commanded rain to fall to enable me to strike him with thunder. The rain started and the thundering began. The whole trees in the area started losing their branches, but this Pastor was singing joyfully. I still remember the chorus : “In Jesus Name every knee shall bow.”
As he continued with this chorus the rain stopped, the thundering ceased. There appeared immediately two angels, one of each side, with flaming swords. Their eyes and the swords were like flames of fire. Then a strong wind carried me away and I found myself in another town ! In fact I was baffled, but because we were so hardened, what I said was : “This man has escaped again !” The Pastor did not know the spiritual war that was fought on his behalf. So, you can see, the child of God is well secured. When the Bible says : “Nothing shall by any means hurt you,” it means what it says !
The second testimony is about a Christian who boarded the same taxi with me. He was very zealous and started distributing Gospel tracts inside taxi. When he gave me the tract I rejected it. He started preaching. So I became disturbed and knocked him with the ring on my finger. That was to kill him. This boy shouted : “The blood of Jesus !” Immediately lightning and fire and an angel appeared. A strong wind again removed me with great force out of the taxi and into the thick jungle. Had it not been that I was a man backed by evil powers I could have got lost in the jungle. The Christian did not know the war that went on his behalf. All he knew, including the other passengers, was that I had disappeared from the taxi !
The name of Jesus or the Blood of Jesus in the mouth of the believer sends out fire etc. The Scripture says : “The Name of the Lord is a strong tower : the righteous runneth into it, and is safe” (Prov. 18:10).
Dear reader, if you are a child of God, remember that God has magnified His word above all His name (Psa. 138:2), therefore confess the Word (the Word of God) believing that what you said shall come to pass, and it shall be so. That is God's promise!
Again I would like to mention here that you can only confess what you know. The Scripture enjoins us to delight in the Word of God, meditating on it day and night. For you to rightly divide the Word of Truth, you must know it. Col. 3:16 says: “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom.” Again Psalm 1 : 1-3 says : “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in His law doth he meditate day and night. And he also shall be like a tree planted by rivers of water, that bringeth forth its fruit in his season; his leaf shall not wither; and whatsoever he doth shall prosper.” Get close to your Bible; pray without ceasing ; have a singing heart and stand, exercise the authority given to you by the Lord Jesus Christ !
Chapter 9 : Now What Next ?
(The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say,
"Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes,
let him take the free gift of the water of life.)
Rev. 22 : 17
Having read through this testimony, you need no further preaching to give your life to Jesus Christ. The Scripture says : “The thief (Satan) cometh not but for to steal, to kill and to destroy. I (Jesus Christ) have come that you might have life, and have it more abundantly” (John 10:10).
Satan hates you and has devised various means of taking you to hell with him. That, you can testify from this testimony. If Satan makes a promise to you or even gives you a gift, know that it is ill-intentioned. Satan is a liar and the father of lies. God called him your enemy, why not believe God and His Word ?
It is not by accident that you came across this testimony. Examine yourself and make sure you are in Christ. You will only succeed in deceiving yourself if you choose to remain a 'church goer' and worst of all, if you still decide to put up an nonchalant attitude to this most important decision of your life.
We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. If you are not yet saved, that means if according to the Word of God you have not accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Personal Saviour yet, following by water baptism by immersion, we encourage you to do so without delay. Tomorrow may be too late!
