One thing I have realized in this ministry is the power and the intent behind the words spoken by an individual. So many times words are spoken which bring upon a curse on a person or even an object. I am going to share with you one such example in which recently I was asked to pray and intercede on behalf of a family and their house. This family lived in a house that was approximately five years old in a desirable neighborhood in a new and developing area. Whenever a house in the neighborhood went up for sale it would sell within a week. This was not the case for this house as it had a for sale sign for the past two years.

It was imperative that the family would have to sell this house, as they could not keep up financially. They were a retired couple and were looking to down size into something smaller and within their budget. This retired couple had living with them at the time a parent that required constant care. The task of caring for this elderly woman was too much for the family to bear, as there were many health concerns for this elderly parent. They had decided it would be in the best interest of the parent to have her placed in a medically supervised nursing home. This grieved the elderly parent and she had interpreted this as an act of abandonment and betrayal. And so she had spoken a curse over the house, stating that as long as she lived that the house would never sell. The family did not think much of this and carried on with their lives.

Two years had passed by and the house still did not sell and things had gotten desperate for the family financially. They had about two months left before beginning the process of filling for bankruptcy. One of there daughters had contacted me and asked if I would help. As I began to pray the spoken curse was brought out in the open, and so that spoken vow and curse was broken and removed from that house. The spirits that entered as a result of that spoken curse left with a violent wind forcing the front door of the house to open leaving with a sound that can be described as young children screaming. We then blessed that house and declared it sold in Jesus name.

That house was then sold before the end of the month just as we had declared. I share this testimony in hopes to encourage those that are facing a similar situation. Our God is powerful and he has given us the authority in Christ. There are no spoken curses or words that cannot be removed and destroyed in Jesus Christ’s name.

I recently led an 85-year-old man to Christ who had been reading some occult texts authored by Edgar Cayce, commonly known as the Sleeping Prophet. This 85 year old was extremely fascinated by Cayce’s work as a psychic. This fascination, however, allowed some demonic spirits to enter this gentleman’s home and they began to haunt him and his family. Eventually the man rid himself of the occult texts as the haunting intensified. We also discovered that others in the family were followers of Edgar Cayce, in fact, we discovered that this interest in Cayce in this family went back over 100 years. This generational psychic curse upon the family allowed the evil spirits to enter the home and haunt this family. Possessing the Cayce literature allowed demons to enter the family line. Thankfully, the curse was broken through the blood of Jesus Christ and the hauntings ceased.

The young couple spoke of seeing a ghost like figure in their kitchen and feeling heavily oppressed whenever they went upstairs to the extra bedroom. They gave my wife and I a tour of the home and I too, felt the heavy oppression in the upstairs bedroom. It was if waves of demonic spirits spilled over your soul. The oppression was real and evil. The young couple also mentioned that they were times they heard footsteps, voices, scratches, and other strange phenomena in their home. I began to wonder what spirit was residing here to torment this family.

While talking with the young couple, downstairs, I began to probe them both on spiritual issues. This brought forth a spiritual reaction. A demon manifested within the young lady.

‘There is another demon besides me in this home.”

“Is he the one behind the spiritual heaviness in the upstairs extra bedroom?”

“Yes,” confessed the evil spirit speaking through the woman.

“Tell me in the name of Jesus who this spirit is.”

“His name is Sharon.”

I wanted to know the significance of the name Sharon, so I probed a little deeper.“What is the significance of the name Sharon?”

“The prior owner of the home was named Sharon. She had committed suicide in that upstairs bedroom and he’s been there ever since terrorizing the family.”The suicide allowed a demon the spiritual right to enter the home. This demon was the one behind the strange haunting and the ghost like appearances they had been experiencing and seeing in their home. As the demon began to explain what was truly happening in the home and the spiritual source of the bizarre activity, we began to witness some demonic activity ourselves. We all heard some scratching noises in the hallway and the lights began to flicker on and off in the living room. The demons were attempting to hinder the exorcism. They failed, however, as the demons were driven out of the young lady.

We then proceeded to deal with the spirit called Sharon that was manifesting in ghost like forms. We commanded it to leave in the holy name of Jesus, and it did. The young couples were never tormented again by ghosts in their home.
