I have never truely experienced real freedom, the whole week we were learning all about spiritual warfare. The reason why im so fired up about this is cause we had "practice on Friday" or i like to call D-Day(Delivernce Day). I had no clue what was going on inside me before i came here to Argentina, i thought i was clean and free from sin. Man was i wrong lol. Let me tell you about a night that has changed my life for forever. After the last class of the week, our leader (who was an ex-guerilla fighter and communist, the guy is crazy he has killed alot of ppl, i dont mess with him lol) started to cast out demons inside of all the students. It started off awesome people were totally ready to be delivered, then people started to throwing up this nasty black stuff. The girl next to started crying these milky tears it was really trippy. So i was doing good throughout all of this till a girl who is such a nice person and really has a heart for God started screaming. This wasnt just any normal scream it was this creature shrieking this blood curling scream, each time i heard it it was like my whole inside was turning. Honestly i wanted to run as far away from it as possible it was so loud that the nieghbors the next day asked about it and they live like 300 yards away. I just knelt down and prayed and asked God for courage. The whole night i was fighting a spirit of fear, i have never been that scared. it was the sound of pure evil. The next day during my quite time i was praying to God to help me, and he told me that that scream was something to rejioce about. God was healing that girl, he was freeing her of all her fear( it was a spirit of fear), he was renewing her. The girl later told us that the while she was screaming she felt God the whole time holding her.
The next day i was feeling alot better and it was indivigle day for delivernce, so i had two leaders call me into a room. I gave them a list of all the sin in my life and what i wanted to change for God. One of the things i prayed for was that God would brake the Generational inheritance that i had of fear, my grandpa passed to my mom(Who already dealt with it i think lol) then it was passed to me. I didnt really know that i had it but God revealed it to me, I also prayed to brake all the oppression Satan had over me. So when my leaders started to rebuke the demons my body just started shaking, each time they said Jesus Christ my body would lose it!!!! so cool. It was beautiful it took about 30 min. but when i left the room i felt totally and truely free from all sin and could feel the warmth of God. I was light as a feather. It was so fun seeing ppl come out after deliverence, each one was smiling and beaming with joy and peace. I can honestly say that i feel like i have total control over all tempations and God is free to move in my life anywhere he wants.
God Rocks!!!
Ok listen this is a huge load of information and i have alot to tell, this was one of the most intense week i have ever experience of my life. i had 5 hour classes every day on deliverence and learning all about demons. if you dont believe in them im sorry cause they are real and they are doing everything that they can to try and destroy all that God has made. if you dont believe that christians can manifest them then you are also decieved, ill explian that later. The person who taught us has had alot of experience in spiritual warfare so all that im about to write is what he has shared with us. The reason why im writing this whole thing is because no one does, my whole life i have not had a single preaching on spiritual warfare, it sickens me i have gone to church my whole life and they dont share this. The good thing is that God has already won the war and we have nothing to fear but that doesnt give us the excuse not to fight. there is huge battle going on and most people arent aware of it.
Let me start with the verse Matthew 10:8 it says that we are to heal the sick, preach Gods kingdom, and cast out demons, and to do it freely haha thats so cool people we have total authoity when we go in Gods name. Luke 10:17 -19, says people went out and cast out demons and had joy doing it.
3 Levels of attack from Satan
-Possession, Luke 4:34-37, this one is were demons are inside controlling the mind and body
-oppression-Psalm 142:6, 55:10, 116:3, Acts 5:1, who cant escape his sin tries to stop but cant
-Torment-this is an attack for someone who is concience of his sin but has no guilt or conviction, his sin takes him to more sin
This is how Demons get into ppl
-Sins, not all sins but certian parts of sin ex. alot of them come through sexual immorality
-The broken haerted, Satan can use tramas to get in ex rejection, abuse, abondonment
-Generational inheritance, demons pass through our parents and stick with generation after generation, thats why alot ppl who get devorced thier kids end up getting devorced.
-Witchcraft, this one is big just dont do it lol all sorts of things, vodo, majic, worshiping objects, martial arts.
Steps and rules to casting out demons
1, we have to recognize the 4 ways of entrence
2, we have to desire the to be free, it gets ugly if the person resist lol
3, before delivering we need to recognize that jesus is our Lord, (the name Jesus Christ my Lord shakes the spiritual realm it has so much power cause it was him who defeated our enemies)
4, We have to be honest with God so that it will be a beautiful experience, Confess what is in our hearts all our sin and brokenness, we need to be vulrable to God, and recieve the prayer prayed over us.
5, Complete confession1 John 1:5-10, if we keep things he cant work in us
6, Renouncing and braking all bondage
7, Repentance, because we have hurt the heart of God, ourselves and other people
8, Forgive thoughs who hurt us, all the pain, ask for forgiveness
This is going to be my second bible, every day people get prayed for deliverence for thier sin but always end up going back to the sin, unless we cut the root out ( demons ) they will not be free. im not saying everything is satan but he is real and moving in our cities and churches
Take your stand cause im not going down without a fight
Let me just say that i would rather be here then any where else but it is very hard and God is stretching me. Im letting you know the areas of prayer that i need while im at the base. i need prayer for personal space, cause i share a little dinky room thats about 2 times as big as my room with 12 guys. there isnt any spce for my luggage so we have to stack them, my bed is made of foam so i can feel the wood beams under me. Another problem i have is that i have to share 1 bathroom with 25 guys, so i have to wait 30 min. sometimes to use it and i can spread my arms out and i will touch both walls so it is really tiny. Besides space i need prayer for cleanyness cause we only get to have showers every other day for 5 min., let me just say ive smelt better. I also need prayer for patients cause we have alot of guys in one room so some things start to bug.
Thanks, God bless

Well Ive been here for about a month now and im starting to get the hang of life here, ill let you know what my day consists of. Tues. to Sat we get up at 7 which im still not to happy about, we clean r rooms and get ready for the day. Then at 730 we have breakfast which is three slices of bread and jam(let me just say I am starting to hate bread) one day out of the week we have oatmeal which is awesome. At 8 we have our quite times, most of time i go outside. I read the bible(im going through Isaiah right now), journal, listen to my Ipod, and pray, sometimes God will tell me to do other things so its always different. like one time i felt like he wanted me to just lay down in the dirt and worship him! Another time i felt like he wanted me to draw, another time i just prayed for one girl at the base the whole time. At 9 we go in and listen to someone give devotions which i will be leading one of these days. then we either have worship or we go and have a time of intercession. At 10 we have classes, which someone will teach on like the fear of God, Missions, Heart of God, and intercession, they are awesome. Then at 1 we have lunch which for Argentina is the biggest meal of the day, each week we have the same things so we have seven different meals then have the same ones the next week( they are all really good). then at 2 we have service time which each week we get diferent jobs, like bathrooms, sweeping, or working outside. this week i had to shovel rocks into a wheel barrel and wheel them about 4 hundred yards to a dump. i slept like a baby each night it was so hard, but it was a good workout. Then at 330 we have a break which we either will wash our clothes by hand and then hang dry them(i pay someone, and they pick it up and bring it back the next day. so thats where all your moneys going to lol), play soccer, play volleyball, or just chill. Then at 5 we have mirenda which is tea time with more bread. 6 we have classes. Then we have dinner which is very good unless they serve this nasty soup and this wierd squash salad. Then we have free time till 1045 then we go in the rooms and lights out at 11. On sunday we go to church, but other then that we can do whatever we want on sunday and monday.
Last week God gave me a dream, I was was at the feet of the cross and was looking at Jesus. He was hanging on the cross crying and he looked at me and said, "I am crying because no one is searching for me they are hiding from me, I am right there but they wont look at me, I am ready to heal them but they come." Then he handed me his heart, as soon as I took it I cant really describe it but I felt so sad, hurt, and, frustrated. I woke up and I was crying.
Im not sure why he gave it to me im still praying about it.
A few days ago we had class on Identity, it was really good. Lately ive been praying for God to show me his heart and to have a real relationship. during the class the teacher gave us time to pray and talked to God and started to pray over us, it was really powerful ppl were crying and praying. God was breaking alot of them, but i didnt feel any thing and was asking God to show me something of himself. so i looked up and i looked at a girl who had been laughing for at least 10 min. and God gave me a vision. He was standing over the girl with the biggest grin tickling her. It really hit me that God really does only have a spiritual but a physical relationship. He is personal and he really does love us and will take care of us.
My relationship with God has never been so close and personal, i get the whole day for three months to devote all my time and spirit to him. He is definatly streching and forcing me out of my comfort zone, but i love it. I have been taking clsses on intimancy, intersesion, having a loving relationship with God, and the broken Heart of God. there is a huge spiritual battle going on the base two girls have passed out and there are spirits of divission, intimadation, and, doubt in the group. i have been praying and battling every day with them, there is a guy from florda who was a youth pastor but he felt that God wanted him to sell all he had and so he is here with his family, but we have teamed up and pray for the base its so awesome to see God moving. in my own personal life i have been praing for change in my heart, to be more humble, have a servants heart, and to have a real love relationship with God. I have given him all i have, my reputation, my short hair (yes im letting my hair grow out) because it is my identity, and, i have given my right to marry and to have a wife so if its in my will not to have a wife then im ok with that.
