Victory in Orlando, Resistance was Present!

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

Dear Friends of Jesus,

I recently returned from a ministry trip to Central Florida and God was gracious to many souls.

Prior to my journey to Orlando my wife and I had the wonderful opportunity to minister to a young woman bound by Satan. In the name of Jesus we expelled many evil spirits out of her. In Orlando, I held three meetings, two private meetings and one public meeting. Prior to traveling over to Florida I was informed by a number of demons that they desired to murder me the day before I was to leave. They failed obviously as our God is a Mighty One, more powerful then any demon power. Jesus conquers over all.

My entire time in Florida was filled with ministry, within minutes of me arriving I began to meet with hurting people. From the moment I arrived to the very last moments before I left I was ministering to the bound in Jesus name. I spent perhaps a total of 6 hours sleeping during my time in Orlando. God was giving me strength though and I praise Him.

In my first private session I met with a small group of people who needed prayer. This group had traveled many hundreds of miles to be a part of this mission. A young lady was present needing liberation. After partaking of the Holy Communion (which by the way, they had not participated in for some time) by the power of Jesus I confronted the evil demons binding her.

“We will KILL you Jay!” the demons forcefully told me as I confronted them. They acknowledged, though, they were weakened by her consumption of the body and blood of Jesus.

I reminded the demons that nobody was going to be killed.

“My name is Devin,” the demon speaking out of her mouth informed me.

“Do you have any rights to her?”

“The generational curse of her ancestors who participated in various sexual sins which they did not repent of,” the demons told me.

I brought Lisa (I changed the name to protect the lady’s identity) back up from this demonized trance and led her in a prayer of renunciation. I knew then that this spirit was doomed. He spewed out more hatred for me and for the precious holy Savior. He blasphemed, cursed, and continued his murderous threats against me.

Knowing they needed to think of a way to stall and hinder the exorcism, they used a young man that was present in the room to disrupt.

“You are a fraud” he told me. He continued on, You have no right to cast out demons. By what power do you do this?

I gently turned to the pages of Holy Scripture to remind him that we DO have power over the enemy in Christ. He didn’t want to hear anything of it though.

As a good Southern Baptist minister’s son he exclaimed, “It was the early apostles who had the authority, we cannot be attacked by demons if we are saved by Jesus.”

(Note: The Southern Baptist Church largely rejects the believer’s authority to cast out demons and heal the sick, however, there are fine Baptist Churches that do perform the works of the Kingdom. I know as I have ministered in many Baptist Churches over the years where demons were exorcised. I even graduated from a Southern Baptist theological school and have lectured on the topic in some colleges, even though I am not a Baptist)

Again I turned to Scripture to show him examples of believers of all sorts driving out demons and showed him that even the apostles came under resistance and attack by the enemy. Again, he didn’t want to hear anything of it.

“I’m not a Bible scholar,” he told me, “but I know this: you can’t be doing this, so says the Word of God.” At this time he was getting visibly upset with the fact that I kept turning to God’s Word to prove that I can cast out demons.

It’s interesting that I refer to Scripture but you have yet to quote one word of the Bible that would prohibit me from driving out demons.

The others in the room nodded in agreement.

Well, I don’t have a Bible to turn to, so, I handed him mine.

He simply placed it down and said he doesn’t know the Scriptural references like I do to turn to.

Hmmm.

We asked him to leave the room as it was obvious he was simply being used of the devil to hinder a young woman’s deliverance.

It grieved my heart deeply to see a “believer” hinder the work of the Holy Spirit.

Upon leaving the room he said, “I hope you are a true believer,” then marched out.

The demons within the lady mocked him and laughed at him as they shared with me he was in persistent sin and controlled by unbelief.

My friends, I was reminded again by the precious Lord

-unbelief will hinder the miracle working power of the Spirit of God.

-in every move of God the enemy will raise up a Judas like individual to betray, to divide, to hinder the work of the Kingdom.

In many of our meetings we see this occurring, where in the midst of a small or large group, false brethren, enemies of the cross, and demonized saints seeking to mock will be present. Even among the closest disciples of the Lord there was a Judas who the Scripture tells us was indwelt with the devil himself. The enemies of the cross seek to hinder. We must be on guard at all times, especially those of you who work in this area of ministry. The enemy desires to stop any church, any believer, any minister that seeks to drive out demons. Obviously the devil doesn’t want to see his fellow evil angels cast to the pit so he will do everything within his power to hinder. We must always be aware and wise.

I harbor no ill will towards this young man. I love him and look forward to praying with him at some point.

After the young man left the room I drove out the evil spirits from the woman. Her face shone with relief and release.

We continued on with the exorcism.

Another more powerful spirit surfaced and pushed the young woman from the sofa, she was sitting on next to her mother.

The demons continued on with the rant of wanting to kill me.

I called forth the holy angels of God who are ministering spirits sent to serve us. Within seconds they arrived and they assisted me in picking her up from the floor and placing her where I commanded the holy angels to place her without me assisting in any manner. I simply watched the angels pick the young lady up and ensured her arms were restrained to keep the demons from using her to harm someone in the room. I even had at one point had the mighty angels ensure the demons drank some holy water that we utilized to weaken their power. They hated with a passion the blessed water. It weakened them considerably.

The satanic spirits shared how they were enslaving a precious dissociative identity and informed me he would not release this part. In the name of Jesus the part was released and was so thankful and shared how much they loved the blood of Jesus. We prayed that this precious part would be comforted and touched by the love of Jesus.

After some battles with these spirits they were also driven out in Jesus name!

Then minutes later I welcomed the group of families and individuals who had traveled, in some cases many miles, to attend our public meeting. Our little meeting room was packed. Every seat was taken. After partaking of the Holy Communion, I led everyone in mass deliverance. I was alittle surprised that this group was much stronger spiritually then many groups I minister to. For several hours we ministered in the authority of Jesus Christ and drove out demons and healed those with pains and afflictions.

-One young lady from Africa who was present wasn’t even able to pray prior to coming to the service. Her parents had shared with everyone that they tried to lead her in prayers and she simply mumbled. On this night though she was able to freely pray as we told the demons to release her from being restricted in any manner.

-Another lady who had traveled from the northeast was attacked during the service with what seemed to me as spiritual chains around her neck. She was having a hard time breathing and feeling like she was being chocked. I confronted the demons head on and told them to stop and to release her. She was released from the pains and the chocking.

-One dear saint recalled a horrific memory of being held down as a little boy against his will and not being to raise himself up causing deep emotional trauma. This was displayed with raw emotion and we bagn to pray for healing and deep spiritual repair. The Lord released him of some minor spirits and was able to experience the touch of the Lord as he was released of some pain.

-Another lady was present who had been raped by sex spirits was freed.

We ministered to a few others and some of were delivered as they felt the demons exit their bodies.

I then had the wonderful opportunity to formally ordain a dear saint who had traveled to the meeting with his family from Maryland. In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit he was released through prayer and fasting to serve the Lord Jesus Christ.

After the meeting I perhaps slept for a few hours before being awakened by the most horrific headache, a migraine. It would not go away. Perhaps I was dehydrated but I think it was more spiritual then anything, I began to read God’s Word in Isaiah. Moments later the headache disappeared. Rested for alittle bit and then had another private session. In this session, I confronted a demon of murder who has deeply entrenched himself within a precious brother. For a couple hours he would not surface but I knew he was present as did this brother. I knew I would have to leave for the airport so I applied more pressure this time utilizing the elements of the Holy Communion–the precious body and blood of our Lord, the murder spirits hated the partaking the blood of Christ obviously and surfaced.

With claw like hands the demons growled, moaned, and other unearthly groans came from the mouth. He fell to the floor and withered and contorted. With deep compassion I continued on with the consumption of the sacred elements which the demons hated. The demons clearly told me their name was “murder.” We fought and fought and have the demons bound in Jesus name. Many minor spirits were expelled during this exorcism but the strongman remains as we literally ran out of time as I had to run to the airport to catch my flight back to Dallas. Please intercede for this saint. He will be partaking of Communion daily and he will be delivered. I fully expect this and will meet with again soon.

Freed Souls in London

Friday, June 4th, 2010

With great joy of the Holy Spirit, within my heart, I announce to you our mission to the United Kingdom was a success to the glory of God!

Thank you precious saints for interceding, for believing, and for supporting this trip to London to carry forth the works of the Kingdom of God.

Our hosts, the Living Word Fellowship, in London, were gracious in extending their love and financial support for this much needed ministry in Western Europe. As a apostolic overseer of the church I commend them in their faith.

We held five public meetings (my friend pastor John Crable spoke on Thursday night) at the church whereby we preached the Word and drove out thousands of evil spirits.

On the first night, after partaking of the Holy Communion~the body and blood of the Lord~ we made a public spectacle of the enemy as we brought forth a young lady, up the front of the church, who had extreme difficulty partaking of the sacred elements, but did so to my surprise as she had not been able to do so up to that point. God is gracious.

We began to publicly battle a number of satanic spirits within this dear lady. As her eyes began to roll back behind her head we forced the demons to the surface in the Name of Jesus.

“I’m Death,” the spirit revealed.

The Death spirits tried to physically hinder but we called upon the holy angels of the Lord and they quickly assisted us in ensuring her arms were restrained in Jesus name.

I urged the church to stand up and fight alongside pastor John and I as we drove out Death and host of other spirits from this woman.

Then God gave a word of knowledge to brother John, giving us some more names of demons and these demons were also driven out!

I’m pleased to report that this local body of believers were strong and not afraid, they commanded the demons to leave and the demons did leave in Jesus holy name.

Prior to the Saturday morning session I stood outside the meeting hall and prayed with people as they walked by. I even had the wonderful opportunity to lead a young man from Nepal, Ashir, to the Lord Jesus Christ. As he was being captured by the love of Christ he exclaimed, “I feel really good, this is what freedom must feel like.” God was graciously saving and delivering this young man on the side of the public street for all to witness!

On Saturday morning, pastor John and I held a training session that was videotaped (the church plans to place portions of the public exorcisms, the teaching sessions, and the preaching on British television). We spoke on the spiritual weapons God has so graciously bestowed upon us as His children. The people of God were equipped with weapons that they can now use against the devil and his demons. The teaching was very well received and afterwards we were involved in a exorcism in the stairwell with several ladies with Hindu backgrounds. God then gave me a word of knowledge about their grandfather being a focal point for these Hindu spirits and this was confirmed by the ladies and on Sunday morning we had the opportunity to minister to them extensively.

On Saturday afternoon, John and I spent a good portion of the time after the training session meeting with hurting individuals, children, and families. The very first lady I ministered to was delivered of hundreds of evil spirits. We also ministered to a little boy who was being afflicted and we trust the Lord for his healing. Several of the ladies seeking deliverance mentioned their concerns of being sexually assaulted by evil spirits. In Jesus name, we prayed and believed! What was beautiful about these sessions was that all of these sessions were not private per se but rather public as we ministered in a large room right off the main hotel lobby where we were meeting people. So I’m sure non-believers of all sorts heard and perhaps even watched from a distance the deliverances that were taking place.

Then later on we held another meeting where we performed mass deliverance, with loud cries and convulsions evil spirits, pains, and afflictions came out of many. During the public deliverance, I noticed a flying spirit enter a man’s stomach, this man from Sweden was brought to the front and I inquired about this and he said, “Yes, I feel pain in this area.”

The Lord revealed to me it was a spirit of “Appetite for Lust.”

I called the demon up and he manifested for all to see. He laughed and laughed as he boasted of binding this man with various lusts.

“We are five thousand,” the demon revealed.

“The body of Jesus Christ binds all 5000 of you together as one and command you all to leave in Jesus name,” I instructed the spirits.

All 5000 left in Jesus name to the pit!

On this night I was told the loud cries of the thousands of demons that were being told to leave people could be heard outside on the city street! The power of Jesus was being broadcasted for all to hear! The demonic realms were shaken on this night as the Kingdom of God was forcefully moving forward in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Later on, back on my hotel room, I was personally comforted by my guardian holy angel. I truly felt comforted (and I might add strengthened) by the angel as he put his arm around me. He literally put his arm around me. Praise God for His Holy Angels who are “ministering spirits,” (see Hebrews 1).

A couple visited me after the public sessions for more ministry and prayer. Instead of sharing using my own words I’d like to share the report from my dear brother concerning his wife. Read and rejoice in the goodness of God:

“As some of you know, my wife Nataley is receiving ongoing deliverance and has been for a number of years. Over the last weekend Jay Bartlett was in London and undertook some ministry with Nataley. Over 700 were cast out in the name of Jesus over the weekend but this is the story of the deliverance from two Psycho demons.

Nataley has been suffering with Schizo Affective disorder since the birth of our first child. This caused her to have Schizophrenic hallucinations and seriously bad psychotic episodes which resulted in medications being prescribed and social service intervention which almost resulted in our children being taken away. They were put on the Child Protection register tho.

When the demons came to attention, Nataley saw one of the hallucinations, George standing next to Jay. Through conversation allowed by Jesus to gain information it was established that George was a demon but within the demon was an ancestral part from Nataley’s grand father who was a doctor and had come to Nataley to torment her.

Nataley saw angels come and on command escort the ancestral part out of the hotel room as it had no rights to Nataley and no right to be there.

This then left just the demons to deal with. George the hallucination was burned with the fire from heaven and then dragged out of the room by its neck by one of God’s Holy Angels, never to be seen again.

The demons within Nataley confessed that there purpose for being there was to make Nataley mad and to get the children taken away. These demons suffered the full wrath of God as the fire from heaven burned straight through them before being sent to the pit.

In my authority as head of the wife, I then laid my hands on Nataley’s head and prayed for Nataley to receive a sound mind. As my hands laid there I could feel movement within the skull as if the brain was moving back together as God restored her.

Praise God. Nataley has no more mental illness of this kind tearing her life apart and she has a sound mind and continues to praise God for this.

This though is ongoing as one of Nataleys parts has demons of depression to be dealt with. please pray for us as we continue to claim the victory in Jesus over these demons and establish Nataley’s freedom in Christ.”

What a wonderful report! I might also add we also dealt with a spirit named, “Abortion.” He boasted of having killed thousands of babies, through the centuries, by attaching himself to the morning after pill. He was driven out Jesus name.

On Sunday morning, we held another service and this time the enemy infiltrated the meeting. I was notified of a infiltrator after the service by a dissociative identity by the name of Charlie who loves Jesus and His blood. He is such a good helper! Charlie revealed that there was a woman there who was operating in unbelief and thereby placing spiritual walls to hinder. I have to be honest I felt some hindrance in my preaching and even a hindrance to minister deliverance but it was short lived as God granted liberty towards the end of the service and we were honored to minister to those 3 precious sisters from India with Hindu grandparents. I had asked the ladies to renounce the ancestral curses of idolatry, Hinduism, and demonism. As they did so Hindu spirits manifested and with shrieks and loud cries, the demonic spirits departed in Jesus name.

Later Sunday afternoon my dear friends took me a brief tour of Buckingham Palace, the River Themes, Big Ben Tower, the Parliament, and 10 Downing Street. I have made a handful trips to the UK but have never made a trip to see these significant national monuments. I just never had the time.

Then late Sunday night after the mission was completed I was approached by a number of demons in my hotel room. They came to assault me as they were furious in the ministry that had taken place over the weekend. For hours I battled them, I slept, perhaps, a few hours on this terrible night. I tossed and turned and could hear the demons outside my room. I then began to get really sick. In the morning I allowed for a time of Holy Communion and the intense physical attacks and spiritual attacks broke over me as I consumed the body and blood of Jesus! I am now at home resting and recuperating.
