About the Author

This book is a mandate from Jesus Christ to share my story of persecution, not to glorify the devil but to inform, to bring word of warning and encourage everyone. Put on your armor for spiritual battle! The Lord Jesus Christ is more than able to destroy witchcraft powers and bring deliverance from witch and wizard attacks. He did it for me, and Jesus is ready to do it for you. I have to warn you that a lot of what you are about to read is very disturbing, but rejoice in knowing the power of Jesus set me free.

About six months prior to when any of my experiences began, I had a visitation from heaven. Yes, this divine revelation was revealed to me by way of an early-morning visitation. I was awake but still lying in bed when I realized a presence in the room. This presence was an angel of the Lord, and he said to me, and I quote, The time of persecution will be fourteen weeks.

With no idea as to what was about to begin to unfold in my life, the natural assumption was this message referenced a present situation that I had been praying about for a lengthy while. Therefore, I didn't question what I was hearing. God knows the end before the beginning. He is Alpha and Omega. Needless to say, he warned me of things to come. Jesus already knew what I was about to endure and wanted me to be prepared for the battle and armed for war. The Lord God Almighty will fight the battle for you, but you must be ready! Ready for what? Glad you asked. For what I'm about to share next.

Shortly after the visitation and before I began seven months of 24-7 attacks from witches and wizards. Many were my neighbors, and some of them could be your neighbors, family members, or even beloved friends. The Lord told me fourteen weeks of persecution, although the ordeal was a seven-month period. Pay close attention because this is what God, our Lord and Savior Jesus, wants me to tell all that will hear. All the signs, the wonders, and birth pains that the Bible tells us will occur as the end draws near. The evidence, such as the floods, tsunami, all the strange weather patterns, and the pandemic, has manifested all over the world. I am convinced we are living in the end-times. However, there are still more birth pains to come to the world. I want to reference a dialogue between God and Habakkuk, the prophet. This prophet of the Bible called out to God for help and for understanding as to why God would allow such evil to come against his people. God gave the prophet a revelation that the events that he was allowing him to prophetically see were to occur during the end-time. It was for an appointed time. Habakkuk was so distressed by what he saw that he complained to God. Likewise, I saw and heard so much that I cried out to God much in the same way as Habakkuk. Nearly three days had passed since I could not eat, and I slept very little. Then I was led by the Holy Spirit to read the book of Habakkuk. Now I understood my steps were being ordered, and it was not by accident that I was in this trial. God has a word, a message, and this is when Jesus told me to record my encounter.

The prophecy that Habakkuk the prophet received.

How long lord, must I call for help, but you do not listen? Or cry to you, violence! But you do not save? Why do you make me look at injustice? Why do you tolerate wrongdoing? Destruction and violence are before me; there is strife, and conflict abounds.

Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never prevails. The wicked hem in the righteous, so that justice is perverted.

Look at the nations and watch and be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told. I am raising up the Babylonians, that ruthless and impetuous people, who sweep across the whole earth to seize dwellings, not their own, They are a feared and dreaded people, they are a law to themselves and promote their own honor. Their horses are swifter than leopards, fiercer than wolves at dusk. Their calvary gallops headlong; their horsemen come from afar. They fly like an eagle swooping to devour; they all come intend on violence. Their hordes advance like a desert wind and gather prisoners like sand. They mock kings and scoff at rulers. They laugh at all fortified cities; by building earthen ramps they capture them. Then they sweep past like the wind and go on, guilty people, whose strength is their god.

lord, are not from everlasting to everlasting? My God, my Holy One, you will never die. You, lord, have appointed them to execute judgement; you, my Rock, have ordained hem to punish. Your eyes are too pure to look on evil; you cannot tolerate wrongdoing. Why then do you tolerate the treacherous? Why are you silent while the wicked swallow up those more righteous than themselves? You have made people like the fish in the sea, like the sea creature that has no ruler. The wicked foe pulls them up with hooks, he catches them in his net, he gathers them up in his dragnet, for by his net he lives in luxury and enjoys the choicest food. Is he to keep on emptying his net, destroying nations without mercy.

I will stand at my watch and station myself on the ramparts; I will look to see what he will say to me, and what answer I am to give to this complaint.

Then the lord replied; Write down the revelation and make it plan on tablets so that a herald may run with it.

For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it, it will certainly come and will not delay. See the enemy is puffed up; his desires are not upright but the righteous person will live by his faithfulness indeed, wine betrays him; he is arrogant and never at rest. Because he is as greedy as the grave and like death is never satisfied, he gathers to himself all the nations and takes captive all the peoples.

Will not all of them taunt him with ridicule and scorn, saying, Woe to him who piles up stolen goods and makes himself wealthy by extortion!

How long must this go on? Will not your creditors suddenly arise? Will they not wake up and make you tremble? Then you will become their prey. Because you have plundered many nations, the people who are left will plunder you. For you have shed human blood; you have destroyed land and others and everyone in them. Woe to him who builds his house by unjust gain, setting his nest on high to escape the clutches of ruin! You have plotted the ruin of many peoples, shaming your own house and forfeiting your life. The stones of the wall will cry out, and the beams of the woodwork will echo it. Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed and establishes a town by injustice! Has not the lord Almighty determined that the people's labor is only fuel for fire that the nations exhaust themselves for nothing? For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the lord as the waters cover the sea. Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors, pouring it from the wine skin till they are drunk, so that they gaze on their naked bodies! You will be filled with shame instead of glory. Now it is your turn! Drink and let your nakedness be exposed! The cup from the lord's right hand is coming around to you, and disgrace will cover your glory. The violence you have done to Lebanon will overwhelm you, and your destruction of animals, will terrify you. For you have shed human blood; you have destroyed lands and cities and everyone in them. Of what value is an idol carved by a craftsman? Or an image that teaches lies? For the one who makes it trust in his own creation he makes idols that cannot speak. Woe to him who says to wood come to life. Or to lifeless stone, wake up! Can it give guidance? It is covered with gold and silver; there is no breath in it.

The lord is in his holy temple; let all the earth be silent before him. (Habakkuk 1–2 NIV)

After a day or two, I began to have some sense of peace restored to me, not peace with what I experienced, peace in knowing that God was with me. My journal entries had not begun when I had a dream.

July 17, 2018, suddenly I saw an image of myself as I walked along a path in conversation with a person whose face I never saw in the dream. Somehow I understood that we were walking toward this building with intent to enter for a speaking engagement. During our conversation, I made a comment about some things I saw on the news channel and other media outlets, then abruptly, I was lifted off my feet. It was as if I was carried above the earth. When I looked down, I could see the world. Not only did I see it, but I saw what was happening. I was taken in for a closer look and transported from nation to nation. I was grief-stricken by what I watched and heard. In every location, terrible things happened; chaos was all around the world. Wailing and mourning, fights, battles, and fires were everywhere. The vision lifted, and I woke up mournful and dispirited. Before my eyes opened, I heard a voice coming from a presence standing next to my bed, and his voice came from above my head. He said, Christians will be persecuted, some to the point of forced slavery. When will this occur? This will occur fourteen years before Christ comes.

I knew I was not just given a word from God to warn his people. My experience was what many Christians would encounter during the end-times. Let me clarify because the Bible makes it very clear no man knows the day or the hour of Christ's return, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father (Matthew 24:36). I don't know when the fourteen years will begin or if we are already living out this fourteen-year period. What I do know is Christians can expect to be persecuted like never before. Be assured that persecution of the body of Christ at the doing of witches, wizards, warlords, and witch doctors will be major for fourteen years before Christ comes. The Lord Jesus loves his people. He loves us so much that he tells us of things to come. Not to frighten anyone but to prepare all. Be not afraid and let not your heart be troubled. I am the living testimony that of the word of the Lord is true. No matter what we go through in life, Jesus will never leave us, nor will he forsake his own.

I share this collection of my journal entries of my seven-month encounter; there are three stages along the way when God visits me with instructions on how to defeat these demonic powers. Our Lord Jesus always has a redemption plan. As I obeyed his instructions, along with diligence in prayer, the power of Jesus Christ set me free from the persecution at the hands of the enemy. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivereth him out of them all (Psalm 34:19).

My prayer and hope is that born-again believers in Jesus Christ will be strong and faithful in their relationship with God so that you will be protected, shielded from these demonic spirits and powers. Live a life pleasing to God with no open doors of sin that will allow the enemy access into your life. Satan can only attack if you allow him to gain access. And to those that do not yet have a personal relationship with Jesus, I want to encourage you to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Time is winding down. You have less time today than you had yesterday. Make a decision now. In the book of Psalm 91, we learn the promise of the Lord's protection. Whoever dwells in the secret place of the Most High will abide under the shadow of the Almighty God. He will command his angels concerning you to guard and protect you. He will save you from the snares and arrows of the enemy. No harm will overtake you.

Chapter 1

Learning That I Had an Enemy

My family rented an apartment in what appeared to be a friendly and safe neighborhood. Kids rode their bikes along the sidewalks, and all the neighbors were very friendly. Before we finished moving our furniture and belongings into the building, one of the tenants stopped by to introduce himself along with his wife and two children.

If you need anything, just let me know, he said to us. We are all a very close community here, he also stated.

With the warm welcome from our neighbors, my husband and I felt we made a good decision to move here. Everything appeared to be going great for a while. Unfortunately, we began to take notice of strange occurrences. My husband worked a night shift at his job, where he would arrive home around three o'clock, or maybe even as early as four in the morning. Finding a parking spot anywhere close to our home became impossible. He had to park several buildings away and walk half a block or around the corner from the adjacent street. Progressively, he became so annoyed we discussed if we should inquire to the property management team our concerns over lack of available parking spaces.

In the beginning, parking was not an issue, and nothing had changed. Rationally, the change did not make sense because there were same seven families that lived there when we moved in, and we made the eighth occupant. No one had moved out, and the lot was generous in ratio to people. The ability to park directly in front of our home was one of the accommodations that attracted us to this housing community. In addition, twice, we were watching television in our great room when we heard footsteps of people walking above us. We occupied one of the upstairs units of this two-story building. Odd, since there weren't any residences above us. And we could hear them talking too. We thought, This conversation came from the rooftop.

Because it didn't make sense, we dismissed it. Maybe the sound was somehow coming through the vent, not from the rooftop. After all, why would our neighbors be on the roof of our apartment? How would one even get there since there is no fire escape or ladder?

I was still puzzled by the unusual rash of events, and I did not expect what was revealed to me next. The Lord had me get up one night (by way of a dream) to go downstairs to the first floor of the apartment building. Standing right in front of the door of the neighbor that resided in the unit directly below mine, I was instructed to put my ear close to the door. I was shocked about what I heard and appalled by the demonic chants recited over and over again by a roomful of people. Make no mistake, they pledged allegiance to Satan and so much more. They said things that I will not even repeat. These particular neighbors had always been quite previously perceived by me as shy. In a million years, I would not anticipate this type of behavior in my community. I was greatly disturbed by the revelation for days, then the dream manifested.

In the days following, I began to notice all the cars coming and going, especially during the nighttime. Within a week, while coming home from my Thursday night Bible study at church, as I walked by the neighbor's front door, I heard loud noise, many voices in unity. I slowed my walk so I wouldn't reach the stairwell too swiftly. They were chanting exactly as they had been in the dream. I could not get up the stairs and into my home fast enough. It was one of those moments when it seemed as though it took forever to get the key into the door.

The following night, during participation in corporate prayer over the phone, something really strange happened. As always, I put the phone on speaker so that the prayers went throughout my home. My pastor was leading the prayer session as the Holy Spirit gave him direction, and most on the phone call were also praying. I was interrupted by an extremely loud annoying noise that sounded as if something or someone was being thrown against the wall over and over again; it was coming from downstairs, directly below. I heard his footsteps. He tried to come up the stairs, but he could not. I thought he was intoxicated. The sound was like he was being thrown around against the wall. When he took a couple more steps up the stairs toward my front door, he fell back down the stairs. His loud offensive language was evidence he was angry; groans and howls came, not like that of a human but more like that of an animal in pain. This went on for the two hours that I was on the prayer line. Afterward, stillness and calm were restored Therefore, I went to bed and had a dream.

My pastor laid hands on someone's head and prayed the same words that he had just prayed on the prayer line. He laid hands on a middle-aged man whom I recognized as the man who lived in my apartment building in the unit directly below mine. A voice said to me, Witch. And the Lord went on to explain to me the anointed prayers from the prayer line did not just anger the devil but were to bring deliverance to this man. But the demon within would not allow it and was fighting against it.

And from this night, my neighbors perceived me as trouble, and the persecution began. After this, I was given a spiritual gift to see and hear in the supernatural realm like I had never experienced in my life. God gave me full understanding as to what was happening in my neighborhood. Terrible things took place in this community of people. Here, many young children played outside after school. Neighbors invited each other over to cookouts and passed out gifts to each other during the Christmas season. I myself had received tins of popcorn and candy from some of them. They would bring my family plates of barbecue. Thanks be unto Jesus we never ate any of the food.

As I mentioned, everything changed from that night. They hated me because I am a Christian and I live my life for Jesus Christ. Receive a glance into what I experience, what I saw, and what I heard. Know that I labored in much prayer and personal suffering to bring you this revelation. Countless attempts were made against my life, but the Lord Jesus Christ's purpose and plan cannot be stopped. Amen.

Next night, I heard rushing winds not just outside my window, but these winds traveled with great force and over the skyway. The distinct sound caught my attention. It whispered with a voice, and I could follow it to realize it landed while making a thump on impact when it touched the ground. I could tell something was being carried in that wind, something with a tangible presence. As it swept across the sky and made landfall, I heard the thump over and over again. Though I heard it, when I looked outside my window, nothing was seen out of the ordinary. The winds brought many arrivals on this night. I heard with my ears, but my physical eyes saw nothing at that time. One thing I was sure of was that
