“When they came to a crowd, a man approached Jesus and knelt before Him. “Lord, have mercy on my son,” he said. “He has seizures and is suffering greatly. He often falls into the fire or into the water. I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him.”

“You unbelieving and perverse generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.” Jesus rebuked the demon and it came out of the boy, and he was healed at that moment.

Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”

He replied,”Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you. If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you. This kind can come out only in prayer and fasting.”     Matthew 17:14-21

 

Wow. These past few weeks God has made this passage come to life.

 

We have had the opportunity to go to two houses that had demonic activity. We were able to go pray over the family members, the rooms of the houses, and outside the houses in the name of Jesus.

 

At one of the houses, the mother explained to us that one of her children sees a shadow at night and can’t sleep and her new baby who was only about a month old was having around 10 seizures a day. The mother also explained that she felt the evil spirit.

 

We all walked around and spent time praying over every room of the house. We prayed in confidence and authority in the name of Jesus. How cool is it that we have the power to cast out demons. Step into that power y’all. Thank You Jesus.

 

Luke 10:19- “I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.”

John 14:12- “Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.”

1 John 4:4- “You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.”

 

After praying over the rooms for a while, one of the members of my team, Carson, motioned for us to pray over a certain corner of the house. We all went into the room and prayed boldly in Jesus’ name. We were on the battlegrounds of a spiritual war. Praise God that the battle was not our own, but the battle was the Lord’s (1 Samuel 17:45). Carson felt a breeze go past and a peace and she knew that the evil spirit was gone. Praise God!

 

A few minutes later, the boy who had seen the shadow came home and when asked where he saw the shadow, he pointed to the corner we had prayed over. That was powerful.

 

Then we started praying for the baby. As we prayed, the baby began to have a seizure. By the time we had finished praying the seizure had stopped. 

 

We told the family that we would be back in a couple days to pray again and we left. Unfortunately, the next day we found out that our team wasn’t able to do ministry outside the farm because of a large increase in COVID cases in the community.

 

About a week after we prayed for them, we got an update about the family from the pastor that was with us. He said that the boy hasn’t seen the shadow anymore and that the baby is doing much better. If he has a seizure, it is only one a day. Can I get a praise God?!

 

Prayer Points

  • Increased faith, increased trust in our identity in Christ and the authority that that gives us

  • For the families and baby that we prayed for- for continued liberation

  • That the Lord we continue to work in the hearts of the people of Granada. It’s a bummer that we aren’t able to go out into the community anymore, but it’s also encouraging to know that God doesn’t need us to accomplish His will. 

  • For a fruitful last week in Nicaragua and safe travels to Costa Rica! We leave Sept. 27th.
