Dear Friends of Jesus ~<\/span>

Blessings to you and your family on this Resurrection Day. Jesus, is indeed, risen! I’m praising God for His protection and goodness as I have survived three near car wrecks, a frightening turbulent flight to Albuquerque, New Mexico that caused even the Captain of the flight to be shaken up, and guarding my family against a crazed demonized man that lurked around my home! All of this within the past 24 hours. More on all of this later however I want to send out a victory report. Jesus once again rescued precious tormented souls and many more received the message of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ during our mission to the Pacific Northwest!<\/strong><\/span>
<\/strong>
This mission to the Pacific Northwest was extraordinary in that God provided Evangelist Johnathan Hill and I with supernatural strength to perform deliverances and evangelistic outreach in various areas with little sleep and not eating for long periods of time. When I initially arrived I continued with the ministry despite the fact that I had been up for nearly 21 hours! The Lord is so gracious!<\/span>

On our last night Johnathan and I ministered in some open air street gatherings in downtown Portland and the demonic oppression was evident in this area of the city. People looked like zombies, bodies without souls<\/em>. God placed us in this environment so that these people could hear of God’s mercy, amazing love, and grace which is found in Jesus! One of the very first individuals we ministered to was a young lady by the name of Ashley. She was only 21 years of age but had already been out on the streets for more then 8 years. She was hunkered down in front of a vacant entry way to a building. Drenched in filth and urine she looked so sad. I sat down in front of her and offered to help her. She was more then ready to call upon Jesus. I prayed with her and she made peace with God! I also spent some time talking to her about the healing power of God. Ashley was so open to this as nobody truly sat down with her and understood her painful existence (one familiar with dissociation could readily tell she had experienced a broken heart on a very deep level). She had been diagnosed with schizophrenia along with a host of mental afflictions but she kept on telling everyone she wasn’t crazy but had lived a horrible life and her problem was with demons! She was right on about this!<\/span>

She was infested with demons as a result of a intensely traumatic childhood –which included having been stabbed by her sister, being severely abused by family, and generally being told she was worth nothing — all of this and so much more brought deep pain in her life — her lovely heart was shattered. There on this cold night as she huddled there beside an vacant building she allowed us to reach those precious parts of her broken heart with the unconditional love of Jesus, her heart began to experience deep healing from the touch of Jesus!<\/span> We also confronted the demons within her and commanded them to leave her in Jesus name!<\/span> We need to follow up with her and my brother Johnathan mentioned he really felt a burden for her and would assist her!<\/span><\/p>\n

There were many other Ashley’s there on the cold uninviting dark streets of Portland. Other lost youth dying from within. Johnathan and I ministered to a small gathering of former drug addicts and ex-cons, we encouraged these dear brothers to serve the Lord Jesus and they readily received our message. We prayed for others to receive the Lord Jesus and God moved powerfully in our midst! One young man we prayed for was still bloodied from a vicious assault that he had endured just a day or so earlier, from a militant homosexual who was furious with him for rejecting his sexual advances. He had made plans to leave the street life. He was fed up and wanted to go back to Sacramento, California to live with his family. He was visibly touched by the ministry of the Word we offered him. We were also able to assist him financially to get off the streets.<\/span> This greatly encouraged many others who were part of this open air meeting.<\/span><\/p>\n

The proclamation of the gospel, the ministry of healing, and the casting out of demons on this trip caused great damage to the kingdom of darkness. In retaliation Satan attacked in an unusual manner –with 3 near car wrecks, enduring a frightful flight, and having to guard my young family from a demonized man who was enraged with the gospel! <\/span>

My flight from Seattle to Albuquerque, New Mexico, where we briefly stopped on the way to Dallas was one-of-a-kind! One I would not like to experience again. I have experienced some tense times in the air as when I traveled over the Sahara Desert in Africa during some highly intense storms however this flight was hellish and I might add demonic. I truly believe with all of the things I experienced this weekend that this was not another random occurrence, but rather this was an demonic attack through the use of a storm. In Job 1:19 we see Satan using weather for his evil purposes.<\/p>\n

While descending to land the jet, the aircraft ran into some very intense wind sheer that literally made it impossible to land safely. In fact, after our landing I overheard the frazzled Captain (I was sitting in the front row) tell the Stewardess that it was his first time (the Captain looked like a seasoned veteran) he had ever experienced some of the emergency detection actually activating in the cockpit. He even said he was considering going to another entirely different airport to land as the weather was that bad.<\/p>\n

Since we it was unsafe to land the Captain of the aircraft decided to abort the landing and take off upwards in an attempt to retry the descent and landing. I prayed and commanded the demons behind the vicious weather to cease their activity. The second attempt was successful but with great difficulty as the jet jerked unlike anything I have experienced (I have been flying since I was a little boy). Afterward I asked the Lead Stewardess if she had ever experienced anything like this before. She said, “No!” Some were so jolted by this event that some were crying.<\/p>\n

Prior to taking off to continue the journey I could hear the aircraft crew talking with hushed and concerned tones about the trip onward to Dallas as we would be running into 3 storm cells! I was thinking perhaps I needed to get off the flight and just rent a car and drive back. I trusted the Lord! This unknowingly to me was just the beginning of my eventful evening…<\/p>\n

I arrived back to Dallas after experiencing another very turbulent flight. I hailed a taxi and while heading back to the house I noticed my driver didn’t seem like he was “present” if you know what I mean?? I shared the gospel with him and within a 10 minute window he nearly lost control of the vehicle, narrowly missing several fast moving vehicles. I told him that he needed to call upon Jesus for help as I KNEW demons were once again trying to kill me this time in a taxi cab! He was furious with me for sharing the gospel and said he would never pray! About this time a rather large dog (looked like a German Shepard) ran into the middle of the darkened road and trying to avoid hitting the animal, he nearly ran us off the road. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to avoid the dog and we plowed over this creature as the dog looked right at us! So sad! I then told him to get me off this taxi as he was extremely dangerous. He didn’t grant my request and simply yelled at me for “preaching” to him about Jesus! A few minutes later I was able to get out of the taxi but this wasn’t the end of it!<\/p>\n

Because he was enraged with me for sharing Jesus he didn’t leave our property but simply parked in front of our home, lurking around the side of the house (my wife and I have been talking about placing a fence around our home as we have had strange people lurk around our home before). I decided not to engage him as he was enraged and felt like he would turn violent. Besides, I have three young children in the home and I needed to be with them! I called the Dallas Police to report this suspicious activity and moments later he left the area! It was well after midnight and after prayer with my wife, went to bed and slept peacefully! Amen!<\/p>\n

Jesus is Lord! Prior to leaving the Pacific Northwest area I opened up my little New Testament and landed here:<\/p>\n

“16 He reached down from on high and took hold of me; <\/span><\/span>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0he drew me out of deep waters. <\/span>
17<\/sup> He rescued me from my powerful enemy<\/strong><\/u>, <\/span>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0from my foes, who were too strong for me. <\/span>
18<\/sup> They confronted me in the day of my disaster, <\/span>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0but the LORD was my support. <\/span>
19<\/sup> He brought me out into a spacious place; <\/span>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0he rescued me because he delighted in me<\/strong>.”<\/span>

I could not help but wonder as I was going through all of these demonic attacks –was the Lord preparing me hours before all of this satanic activity so I would be prepared? I think so! God loves us so very much that He warns us!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
