It was like a shift, you’ve got to go and work your shift. So regularly he had a time he had to go and wage war in the heavenlies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And he said that in the heavenlies, in the spiritual realm, if the land is covered under the blanket of darkness, that blanket is so thick, it is like a rock.<\/span><\/p>\n

And it covers the whole area. And these spirits are able to go on top of this as well as below this blanket. And from that level, they influence the events happening on earth.<\/span><\/p>\n

When the evil spirits and human satanic agents leave their shifts, they go down on earth at the points of covenant, even waters or on the land at the points of a covenant for refreshing of their spirit.<\/span><\/p>\n

And how do they refresh their spirit? By the sacrifices that people give at these altars. There could be sacrifices in open witchcraft, sacrifices in bloodshed of all types including abortion, including warfare and human sacrifices and animal sacrifices.<\/span><\/p>\n

There could be sacrifices of sexual immorality where people go into sexual perversions and all kinds of promiscuity. And that act services the strength of these powers. And many are the different types of sacrifices.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said that when satanic agents are up in the heavenly realm, and the Christians begin to pray on earth, the prayers of the Christians appear to them in three forms.<\/span><\/p>\n

All prayers appear like smoke that is rising up into the heavens.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some prayers appear like smoke, and it goes drifting along and disappear in the air.<\/span><\/p>\n

These prayers come from people who have sin in their lives and they are not willing to deal with it.\u00a0 Their prayers are so weak, they are blown away and disappear in the air.<\/span><\/p>\n

The other type of prayer is also like smoke that rises up until it reaches this rock, but it does not break through the rock.<\/span><\/p>\n

These are usually people who try to purify themselves, but they lack the faith in what they are doing as they pray. They usually ignore the other important aspects that are needed when someone prays.<\/span><\/p>\n

The third type of prayer is like smoke that is filled with fire. As it rises up, it is so hot that when it reaches the rock, the rock begins to melt like wax. It pierces the rock and goes through.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many times, as people begin to pray, their prayers look like the first type, but as they continue praying, their prayers change and become like the second prayer.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

And as they continue praying, suddenly it ignites into fire. And their prayers become so powerful, they pierce through the rock.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many times evil agents would notice that prayers were changing and coming very close to the state of fire, then these agents would communicate to other spirits on earth and they tell them, “Distract that person from prayer.\u00a0 Stop them praying.\u00a0 Pull them out.”<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Breakthrough<\/span><\/h3>\n

And if people persist in this kind of prayer and allow themselves to be inspired in the spirit and keep going and keep going, something happens in the spirit realm.<\/span><\/p>\n

The fire touches that rock, and it melts.\u00a0 And this man said, when the melting begins, it is so hot, no demon spirit can stand it. No human spirit can stand it.\u00a0 They all flee. They all run away.<\/span><\/p>\n

There comes an opening in the spiritual realm. And as soon as this comes, all this trouble in prayer stops.<\/span><\/p>\n

The person who is praying on the ground just feels like prayer is suddenly so smooth, so enjoyable, so powerful, and intense.<\/span><\/p>\n

And I’ve discovered at that moment, we normally lose conscience of time and other things. Not that we become disorderly.<\/span><\/p>\n

God takes care of our time. But it is like you lay down everything, and you hook up with God. And this man said that when the prayers go through, from that moment there can be no resistance at all, and the person praying will continue as long as he wants. There is no resistance that can stop him.<\/span><\/p>\n

And then he said, after he finishes praying, the hole remains open, and he said that people, when they rise out of their place of prayer, and they walk out, this open hole moves along with them.<\/span><\/p>\n

They are no longer operating under the blanket. They are operating under open heavens. And he said in that state, the devil cannot do what he wants against them.<\/span><\/p>\n

And the presence of the Lord is like a pillar from heaven resting on their lives.\u00a0 They are protected, and there is so much power inside that pillar that as they move around, that presence touches other people.<\/span><\/p>\n

It discerns what the enemy has done in other people. And as they talk to people and those people are standing with them, they come inside this pillar. And as long as they stay inside that pillar, all the bondage of the enemy weaken.<\/span><\/p>\n

So when these people who have this spiritual break-through share Jesus Christ with the sinners, their resistance is low. It is so easy to bring them through.<\/span><\/p>\n

When they pray for the sick or pray about things, the presence which is there makes all the difference. And this man said the devil hates such people.<\/span><\/p>\n

And it said if there are places where prayer is regularly being prayed through like that, the presence comes upon that place and does not leave. So even the people who don’t know God, when they come into this place suddenly all the bondages are weakened.<\/span><\/p>\n

And if someone cared to just minister to them patiently and with love, they can easily be pulled through, not by power nor by might but by the Spirit of God, who is present.<\/span><\/p>\n

And he said, if no one bothers about these people, they come into his presence, they feel convicted, they begin to debate whether to yield or not, but if they are not pulled through, when they walk away from this place, bondages get stronger.<\/span><\/p>\n

And the devil tries his best not to allow them to come back into such an environment.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can imagine we were all seated looking at this man. He was telling us the things he used to do and what he used to see.<\/span><\/p>\n

Then he told us what they would do to people who have broken through in prayer.\u00a0 He said they marked such people; they studied such people.<\/span><\/p>\n

They dug up everything they could find about such people. So they knew their weaknesses, and when someone overcomes them in prayer and breaks through, they communicate with other spirits and say, “Target him with this and with this and with this.<\/span><\/p>\n

These are his weaknesses.”<\/span><\/p>\n

So when this person walks out of the prayer closet, the spirit of prayer is upon him, the presence is upon him, his spirits are high, the joy of the Lord is his strength. As he moves the enemy tries to bring those things that can distract him from focusing on the Lord.<\/span><\/p>\n

Then he shared how he lead expositions into the air. He would go with other satanic agents and lots of demon spirits into the air.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
