RE:  WONDERFUL SUNDAY IN THE HOLY GHOST.

Hi Friends. I visited the prison in Florence, Arizona on Sunday to minister for Father’s Day.  I taught on the quadrennium of man:  body.soul.spirit.mind and the monotony of the devil:  demons.pride.murder.hate.  I ended the service early to pray for anyone who thought they might have picked up demons and could not live a consistent victorious Christian life.  I gave everyone one minute to leave who did not want prayer.  When I turned around, to my surprise, half the chapel was standing up front to be delivered from evil spirits, including most of the leaders of the Bible group!  Unfortunately, I did not leave enough time to pray with more than 4 of them. I did not think there would be that many.  3 of them got delivered. One man had powerful demons of murder and hate and he needed more time and care.  The demons left one guy and he collapsed on the floor and then started giggling.  Another guy had them fly out of his head and he said the tight skull cap feeling he always had on his head had left (I see this in many people who have schizophrenia)!  I explained to them they did not need me here to do this and taught them how to self deliver.  I left the prison and barely made it back to the Dream Center for the evening prayer service.  

A friend of mine at the DC had lost his wife and 5 year old daughter last year.  She left and got involved with another man.  Her life was collapsing and she had started communicating with my friend again.  He prays hard for her every day.  She came down for prayer and 4 of my friends helped pray for her.  She was filled with doubt, questions, confusion and fears.  It took her a half hour to repent.  We hung on patiently looking to Jesus.  After she was done I told her to start praising the Lord so she could be healed.  When she started praising the Holy Ghost came upon her.  I swiped my hands over her face and she collapsed and was healed.  You should have seen the look of relief on her husbands face!  God is a good God.  Thank you for praying fo us.  Bro. Mike

HOLY GHOST MOVES THROUGH MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA.

Hi Friends.  I had an interesting week.  1.  A huge guy at Teen Challenge came in for counseling. I’m 6’1″ and this guy towered over me.  He is a very un-emotional man and an introvert.  After listening to him for a half hour I discovered what his spiritual problem was.  I took him over to the chapel and asked him to pick out the two most needy men in the program and to pray out loud for them, like he would normally.  He prayed for about 5 minutes calmly and deliberately.  After he was done I sat him down and said “Son, I am not trying to offend you but you are not going to get anything from God praying like that.  No wonder your spiritual life is struggling.  I am going to show you how to pray.”  I launched into a Holy Ghost session attacking the demons torturing and deceiving the two men in the program.  I claimed all God’s wonderful blessings for them.  I called down the Precious Blood of the Lamb on them.  I prayed like I was dying for them.  Unbeknownst to me, while I was praying, the Holy Ghost stuck the man and when I was done he could hardly speak and was dumbfounded.  He was shaken and gawking at me.  He mumbled: “I have never heard anyone pray like that before.  I know what is wrong with me.”  I then had him start praying again and rebuking the devil out of his life.  When he got quiet I encouraged him to be stronger.  To my surprise, he got it!  He was praying with power in a few minutes, taking command of the evil spirits robbing him of his joy and striking him with suicidal thoughts.  He left the chapel feeling wonderful, ready to fight the good fight of faith.

2.  An old woman called me off the radio program to come pray for her son who was mentally ill with  obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD).  When I got there I felt evil spirits in the home.  The 52 year old son lived in the garage in the back yard.  Her husband had religious spirits and was an un-affectionate controller. Her grand daughter had chronic migraines.  The grandmother was the spiritual hub of the family but was burdened down with spirits of heaviness and depression.  My friend and I went to see the son.  He has 42, had dozens of unopened gallon bottles of green tea in his garage and has 28 unopened spray bottles of engine cleaner in his room.  He works 12 hours a day and at night watches cooking shows on cable, then takes a shower and goes to bed.  He hates to cook, hates people and wants to commit suicide but does not have the nerve to do it.  He boarded up the windows in his loft to block out the sun and wears ear mufflers to block out noise.  He has several neighbors he would like to knife to death and his psychiatrist said he has clinical depression, OCD and an anxiety disorder.  He takes Xanax.  After I heard his story I quietly and gently told him that there really was a God, Satan and demons, that he had many demons in his mind trying to destroy him.  I told him that Jesus really did love him dearly and wanted to completely heal him and that if he did not come to Christ with everything he had, he was never going to get better and he would get much worse over the next 5 years and then die.  HE STARED RIGHT INTO MY EYES THE ENTIRE TIME I WAS TALKING AND DID NOT EVEN BLINK ONCE.  He did not really receive what I said to him so I left my number and left. When I left I asked him for a favor.  ”Would you please ask your mother why she is so happy tomorrow?”  I went into the house and took his mother into the living room and told her about the demons of depression and gloom that were pulling her down over the last 40 years.  She said a deceased preacher named Glenn Foster in Glendale had told her years ago that he saw a vision of her with a large spike in her back!  She never knew what it meant.  I told her: The devil stabbed her with a spike and hung the burdens of her entire dysfunctional family on her and stole her joy.  I told her it was her day to get healed.  Her face slumped to her chest.  Nick & I started to pray for her and I put my hands on her throat and told the devil to let her go.  The Spirit of God shot thru her chest and she started to praise the Lord with joy.  She was shrieking out praises and was laughing and gasping in joy.  It flooded over to us and Nick and I started to laugh and rejoice.  She then went around the house rebuking all the evil spirits tormenting their family and she prayed and rejoiced for a half hour.  We left her smiling and rejoicing. It is wonderful to see God heal mental illness. Thank you for praying. Bro. Mike.
