My name is David, I am 20 years old and I live in Heidelberg, Germany. I started listening to your BTW Series this January (my cousin told me about you/them) after having my calling revealed to me by the Lord. 🙂
I was just reading the Bible and read Galatians 6. The verse “Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.” just really stood out to me and I know I should share with you the great experiences I had with God fighting against the enemy. I am still at the beginning though, I’d say I became a Christian Mid 2011 (although I was raised Christian, I never really knew the Lord until last year when he revealed awesome things about himself to me, before that I only knew about him, but did not know him.)
On a Sunday afternoon I was listening to BTW NR.7 I think it was called “Authority in Christ”. After listening to it I felt very tired and laid down for a nap.
When I woke up, there was a demon on me. It felt like he had his knees on my body where my lungs are and he was holding my arms onto the bed with his two arms. I was struggling there in my bed, not being able to breath or to move. I began to pray in tongues, first without an audible voice because I could not open my mouth. As I spoke in tongues on the inside, I felt how I got stronger and how the demons hold on me got weaker. After a short time I was able to open my mouth and speak aloud. It was like the demon had gotten a hard punch in his face. :). He was more furious now and tightened his grip on me and again I couldn’t open my mouth anymore. So I prayed again inside in tongues, got stronger, could open my mouth and gave him the killing blow. I then stood up, turned on the lights and stood at my window looking outside. What I saw was very weird/interesting. It was dark outside (as it should be at that hour), even though the sun was shining. Behind the sun I saw the moon, about 10-20 times bigger as it usually is and below the moon I saw another moon. I heard many voices in my head and finally realised that the demon still had captured me in a false reality. As soon as I recognised that, I woke up again…
I realised that at first, my spirit woke up, and later my body woke up. That was certainly a good and revealing fight to me. And it was so much fun, God is so great.
Not long after this, in the middle of the night God spoke to me if I wanted to go to a place in my city where Satanists were and do something there for him and I realised I could say No, or Yes. I told the Lord that I wanted to do it and he gave me an instruction on how I would recognise the place where I had to go. As soon as I said yes, I was in the spirit on a street that I immediately recognised in Heidelberg, walking on the sidewalk. As I was walking towards the target, I saw a female Satanist in the house where God wanted me to go to, and even though I was still to far away that she would be able to see me, she felt that I was approaching her destination and I immediately could feel the fear in her. When I arrived at the place, the Satanist came running towards me trying to attack me. I just stood there and started praying in tongues and she fell to the floor and it looked like she had died?! There were two more men in this house, one of them also tried to attack me, the same thing happened to him what had happened to the woman and the other men I was able to save and I think I talked with him about Jesus, I am not sure anymore exactly.
At the end of February, on one day I was sitting in my chair, just being silent and spending time with the Lord and praying, when suddenly I felt a strong attack coming towards the place where I live in the Spirit. I was not exactly sure how do deal with it and just tried to resist/defend against it. I asked my cousin and someone else who lived there if they felt something going on in the spirit and they felt it as well.
The following evening, I was sitting on my chair again, doing the same things, when suddenly I felt these attacks/onslaught of the enemy coming to the place where I lived again. In an instant my whole body felt like it was frozen, I was so cold, I started shivering and foolishly tried to warm me on the heating. Realising that it would not help, I began to speak in tongues against it. Immediately some very “interesting” thoughts popped into my mind: “What are you doing? You can’t do that! You aren’t allowed to fight that!”. I stopped praying for a second, listening to these thoughts and thought, Hmm maybe I really should not do that. Few seconds later I realised that the enemy is trying to stop me to attack and destroy them and I just went even more !BÄÄM! and just fought against it like we are commanded to do. A few seconds later I had a strong feeling of “Victory” all around me and in an instant the coldness on my body left and everything was fine again.
Thank you Lord for giving us the strength, your anointing and the pleasure to fight against your enemies.
The next day, I was at home and we had visitors, because it was my mothers birthday. My cousin entered the room and soon he asked me if we would pray in tongues for like 20 minutes. At first a thought popped to my mind that really did not want to, but thanks to your teachings and revelations and evidences that God has given to me I knew that this was not my thought and that praying/speaking in tongues is awesome. So I was even more excited about it because of the (little) resistance I overcame. We began to speak in tongues and a few minutes later someone entered the room and we stopped. He left and we started again to pray in tongues. Maybe 3 minutes later he came in again and we stopped again…He left maybe 1 minute later and we started again. Another maybe 2-3 minutes later my sister enters the room, we stop again and she asks us if she could use my computer quickly. Immediately I thought to myself not to let her use my computer so that she would go out and we could pray in tongues. And then I realised what was happening. In an instant I remembered from a BTW the part where you spoke about “No weapon formed against you shall prosper.” and I realised the devil had found a weapon that was prospering, which in this case was that someone would enter the room and stop us from praying in tongues. So I said to my sister that she could use the computer and my cousin, having realised the same, said “If you don’t mind us speaking in tongues”. So we just continued speaking in tongues. Maybe 2 minutes later, all of the sudden I was in a place in heaven, feeling Gods Authority and Power over the enemy. I was there standing at some kind of balcony in heaven but there was no rail (if that is the right english word) on it. I was standing at the edge of it and could see down to earth and in between there was the spiritual realm. Even though I was standing at the edge of the balcony and looking down from a high altitude, there was no feeling of falling down which people usually have when they are in a tall building on a balcony or something similar. Looking down there, I could see the demons around the place where I lived as little ants and I was able just to flick them away with my fingers. This was so funny and I just started laughing.
Experiencing these things with God is so great, feeling a little bit of his almighty power is just overwhelming.
There is more that has happened, one time I got home in the evening sat down got quiet and just felt 5-7 demons around me. They just felt like spheres of fear in the air to me. I was cautious this day, made a mistake and then in the evening did not cast all of them out, ( I felt like 1-2 of them were still hiding somewhere in my room). The next day I had immense pain in my right foot, it was so strong and I can’t remember ever having had such strong foot pain. But it taught a good lesson to me, so I am still thankful that it happened.
There is more to tell, and I am so looking forward for the awesome things that will come and how the Lord will teach me to be what he called me to be. Learning from Daddy and growing in his power/anointing/truth is just amazing.
Btw the cousin I was talking about, is the one who started an ICOTG in the Bergheimer Straße in Heidelberg.
Oh before I forget it, I am currently in Las Vegas visiting a church etc. And what God has set up for me there is simply amazing. About 1 Month before I came to Las Vegas, I got to know a man named Günther (I knew that he exists, since I had seen him in the church where I went to but I never really talked with him before or got to know him) and he is also called into heavy spiritual warfare by God. So now in my 2nd week in Las Vegas, at the church where I go to there a teaching course started and they had many people attending it from all over the world. On the first day I met a man named Allen Collins and his wife Rhoda Collins, they live in Canada. We spoke a little and I told them that I am from Germany, Heidelberg. Al told me that he has been to Germany and he has even been to Heidelberg. Then he began to tell me about this guy named Günther and Kai with whom he did spiritual warfare in Germany. Günther and Kai were/are pretty good friends of his. The teaching started and I began to wonder in my mind. Hmm he knows someone from Heidelberg named Günther and he has a friend named Kai. I thought “Thats an interesting coincidence”, since the Günther I know also told me about someone with the name Kai.
At the break, I asked Al about this Günther in Germany he knows. Well it turns out he know the exact same person which I got to know about 1 month before I came to Las Vegas and all us have a calling that goes in the same direction which is spiritual warfare.
So what is the chance of meeting someone from Canada in Las Vegas who stayed there for only ~2 weeks going at this time to the same church where I go to in Las Vegas and knowing someone from my hometown whom I got to know only 1 Month before I came to Las Vegas……This is just to funny. God really is amazing. And this just showed me that he takes so much good care of me and sets the right people directly in my path. I also want to ask Günther to teach/mentor me when I am back in Germany so this is also a big confirmation.
I just want to thank you and your awesome ministry, and just ask the Lord to bless you with vigour and endurance and even more strength to take down the enemy in the name of the Lord and I thank you for laying your life down for the one(s) you love.
And I also just want to thank God, who takes so much care of me, and who I can count on all the time. It is so amazing how he cares for me and he just puts the right people in my path so that I cant even miss them. He is so good.
David.
