As I sat through the prayer service I was excited about all we had been able to do in our short time with the church. Our team taught through the Bible from creation to the resurrection of Christ. We included Old Testament stories, Jesus birth, life, miracles and finally his death and resurrection. It was wonderful to be able to work through so much scripture.
After the service we packed up our belongings and broke camp which took all of 30 minutes, then waited for our ride. About an hour later the ride came. Turns out they were only taking our bags and we were walking, or more accurately parading. We sang and danced the 20 min. walk through the town with about 50 church members. Definitely a memorable event!

When we arrived at the church that another World Race team was working with we all formed a huge prayer circle of about 100 people. While our pastor was praying all the same people started manifesting demons again, it was pretty intense and I don’t understand why they came out when he prayed.
As we waited for our bags to be awkwardly loaded and tied to the top of our van we all stood in a circle and danced. I really enjoyed my self and like usual was out dancing with all the women, learning some cool new moves for the next time I have a chance to go out.
One lady grabbed my hand and started dancing with me. All of a sudden her eyes started rolling back into her head and her body began to spasm, a sick smile was planted on her face. Weird noises started coming from her mouth, but she still was standing. I could feel the evil coming from what was inside her.
I immediately started to pray and take authority. I don’t know a lot about demons but I do know that there is power in Jesus Christ. As I was praying I realized that the demon did not want to see her dancing and praising God so I stated that she had freedom to worship Christ and told the demon to stop hindering her from that. Right when I said that it stopped and instantly she was fine, back to dancing, in her right mind.
I’m not writing about all this demon stuff to scare people or to sensationalize anything. If you struggle with this blog or have questions I would love to hear about it. My purpose for writing this is to remind people in the United States that the spiritual battle we face is real. Spiritual things are often underneath the surface in the U.S. and it’s too easy to become numb to that side of reality and forget the importance of prayer.
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms….Pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.” Ephesians 6:12 and 18
