_Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour_ *(1 Peter 5:8)*
Many years ago, while casting a devil out from a dear lady, the demon, trying to put up some resistance, said, *“I’m not coming out; I’m responsible for the removal of her fallopian tube!”*
Of course, I didn’t bother to engage the demon in a dialogue; I simply said, *“You’re coming out right now, in the Name of Jesus!”* And he screamed and came out of the lady. Later on, the lady began to explain to me how she was given the wrong diagnosis and underwent a bilateral salpingectomy. She didn’t know demons were responsible for that cruel mistake.
This has happened to a lot of people. There’re people who have had to go through surgeries they never needed; some died in the process. Many hospitals are deathtraps, where demon spirits lodge and inspire doctors to do the wrong things. We’re living in the days of intense spiritual conflicts and warfare.
A young girl of about nine years became demon-possessed; her behaviour suddenly changed and her health became unstable. No one could understand what happened to her. She started having very strange dreams where she’d find herself at the bottom of a river with a *“queen”* and other girls of her age.
Her life became a mess. It was later discovered that it all happened at her school when her friend, who was demon-possessed, gave her a particular gift item, and the devil entered into her. Life is spiritual; everything you can see with your optical eyes and relate physically with, came from the realm of the spirit.
It’s essential for you to be spiritually sensitive to discern and decisively deal with the enemy whenever he shows up. Be on the alert. The Lord Jesus warned us to watch and pray (Mark 13:33). Speak in tongues often, because as you pray in tongues, spiritual realities are unveiled to your spirit and you won’t be ignorant of the devices of the enemy. You’ll see and will be able to relate with the *“real”* truth concerning any situation. Praise God!
*CONFESSION*
_I’m strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. I keep His Word in my heart and in my mouth always and therefore discomfit all the stratagems, schemes, manoeuvres and manipulations of the devil. And as I speak in tongues, spiritual realities are unveiled to my spirit, and I see and relate with the “real” truth concerning any situation. Hallelujah!_
*FURTHER STUDY:*
*Ephesians 6:10-13* Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. *11* Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. *12* For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places]. *13* Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
*Colossians 1:9* For this cause we also, since the day we heard [it], do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
*1 Corinthians 14:2 AMPC* For one who speaks in an [unknown] tongue speaks not to men but to God, for no one understands or catches his meaning, because in the [Holy] Spirit he utters secret truths and hidden things [not obvious to the understanding].
