When Christian Witches Attack You
Writer: Jonas Clark | www.jonasclark.com
On several occasions Christian witches have attacked our ministry. We were holding a conference in Central America. It takes a lot of prayer, hard work and finances to organize conferences and crusades. The week before our crusade three Christian witches came to the house of one of our conference organizers. Holding large rusty spikes in their hands they began to prophesy three curses against our meetings. Can you imagine that? Each spike was representative of some type of suffering we would face during the meetings. They cursed our health, finances and attendance. Our organizer was shocked and rebuked them in Jesus Name. They left.
After some investigation we discovered Communists were behind the attack and conspired to stop our meetings in the country by releasing demonic curses. These three Christian witches were in league with a Communists political party and members of a religious denomination that did not want any "competition for souls" in their city.
In this country the Communists were trying to infiltrate the Protestant church for their support during upcoming national elections. They were forming their own pastoral associations and infiltrating others, hosting city leadership meetings, financially supporting certain pastors of large congregations even buying them cars and giving their family members jobs within the government. This is a manifestation of high level principalities and powers working within the leviathan state and networking with various liberal factions within the Church of Christ. This is an ancient demonic strategy trying to stop the Kingdom of God from advancing.
The day we arrived in the country we heard of the demonic encounter. Already four innocent people had broken bones from slip and fall accidents. The suffering had begun. We called an immediate prayer meeting to bind up the "suffering curses." The curses were broken in Jesus Name and the meetings a success with hundreds of people saved, healed and baptized with the Holy Ghost. Only demon powers can influence other "Christians" to do things like this.
Hindering the Move of God
I like to pray for people after preaching. We call people to the front of the church, lay hands on them and pray for them. The Holy Spirit does powerful things during this part of the service. I love to see people experience the anointing of the Holy Ghost. Once during this part of the service a woman was sitting in the audience. It was reported that she stood up and began to release curses at me. She turned to the north, then to the south, then to the east, and then to the west releasing curses all the while. She didn’t like me talking about the baptism of the Holy Ghost or laying hands on people to receive healing and deliverance. Only demon influenced people can be used in such a way. Why didn’t she just leave the service? It’s been reported this woman has attended many churches in our city claiming to be a Christian. There is no telling what demonic damage and spiritual warfare she has caused and released to the unsuspecting. Our ushers will throw her out of the church if they catch her visiting and doing any such thing again. Occasions such as this require our love for the brethren to be expressed by throwing people out of the church to protect the innocent within the church. Not everyone that walks into a local church belongs there. Some are witches, wolves, goats, and false prophets. [Read Wolves in Sheep's Clothing] There are many lessons to learn in ministry. Scripture says,
These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots. Jude 1:12
On another occasion a Christian witch came to my house saying something like "because you have not received me as your personal prophet you will die in thirty days." I rebuked that demon and threw him out of my house in Jesus Name. The boldness and arrogance of these demons is amazing. I know we don’t talk about these things much but they do happen. That’s why I wrote Exposing Spiritual Witchcraft. Demons are not nice. They are cruel, wicked and will work all sorts of dirty schemes to stop you. Remember, it’s not people you are wrestling against but demonic powers. That’s hard to remember sometimes especially when under attack but you can do it by the grace of God.
Demonic Networks
Jesus modeled the way regarding confrontations with demon powers and healing the sick. Scripture declares,
For this purpose the Son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil. 1 John 3:8
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.1 John 3 verse 8
The works of the devil must be discerned. You can’t bind or cast out what you cannot see. Spiritual discernment requires one to be well versed in the Word of God and walking in the anointing of the Holy Ghost.
Scripture declares, "For every one that useth milk is unskillful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil" (Hebrews 5:13-14).
Demon spirits are crafty. They like to infiltrate ministries. They like to blend in. They try to deceive both the weak and the strong. As already said they will do their best to stop your spiritual discernment even if it means using guilt, manipulation, scripture, FALSE PROPHECY, religious legalism, state sponsored Communists, or Christian witches releasing curses.
The divination spirit is known in the New Testament as pneuma python or a python spirit. This spirit works with others in prophetic operations and deception including pneuma plana, spirit of error, also known as the seducing spirit. Scripture declares,
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils. 1 Timothy 4:1
These are the teaching and prophetic spirits. The Jezebel spirit is the strong man of this group of spirits. She is a teaching spirit, a prophetic spirit and a controlling manipulator that usurps authority at every opportunity. Jezebel targets the ignorant, the loving, hurting, wounded, offended, even the corrected rebellious. Jezebel works in spiritual deception and guile to advance her own agenda. Often forming soul ties with her victims she works her demonic plan. The control of others gives her a sense of value and satisfaction.
The damsel that followed the Apostle Paul had a spirit of divination. That spirit was up to no good. Here is the testimony.
