COVID TESTIMONY: (
A visit to spiritual realm)
II Corinthians 12:2-5 NKJV
[2] I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago—whether
in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, God
knows—such a one was caught up to the third heaven.
[3] And I know such a man—whether in the body or out of
the body I do not know, God knows—
[4] how he was caught up into Paradise and heard
inexpressible words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter. [5] Of such a
one I will boast; yet of myself I will not boast, except in my infirmities.
This is a supernatural testimony I had experienced
during the COVID pandemic.
Battlefield:
"'No eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the
human heart conceived, what God has prepared for those who love him' - these
things God has revealed to us through the Spirit, for the Spirit searches everything,
even the depths of God" (1 Corinthians 2:9).
One such encounter occurred during the COVID pandemic when
most churches were closed, and a few of us were fasting at our church. We
experienced supernatural realms while praying in tongues for hours. During
these intense prayer sessions, some individuals would lose physical consciousness while visiting
spiritual realms, and we would engage in spiritual battles against demons and
animals. In one intense encounter, a bull hit one of our friends' ribs, causing
him to shout in pain. We rebuked the evil spirit attacking him, and he
eventually regained his senses. Upon examining the area of his ribs where he
was hurt, we observed a visible red mark similar to a physical injury.
Initially, I was somewhat skeptical about what was happening, but the
experience was undeniably real.
"In the spiritual realm, we made some distinctive
observations about our spiritual armor, as described in Ephesians 6:10-18.
Those equipped with the Word of God wielded a long, sharp sword, as Hebrews
4:12 states, "For the Word of God is living and active, sharper than
any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and spirit, of joints and
marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart." We
also observed different types of shoes, with some wearing Roman army sandals
and others wearing canvas shoes, symbolizing our readiness in the gospel of
peace, as Ephesians 6:15 describes, "With your feet fitted with the
readiness that comes from the gospel of peace." Someone had loose belt as referred in
Ephesians 6:14 "Stand therefore, having girded your
waist with truth,"
During one such encounter, I entered the spiritual realm and
saw a bright light resembling clouds. As I entered the light, I found myself
riding a horse in the spiritual realm. I reached the bank of a river, where I
saw a red-faced man, similar to a Red Indians with a
feather on his head, standing on the opposite side.
Upon closer inspection, I noticed a smirk on his face, and
the word 'Jealousy' was emblazoned on his chest. Initially, I thought he was
alone, but he was backed by a troop of soldiers who began shooting arrows at
me. In response, I recited the Scripture, 'No weapon formed against you
shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall
condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their
righteousness is from Me,' says the Lord (Isaiah 54:17).
As I spoke out the verse, I thought I was alone, but
suddenly many arrows began shooting from my side, killing the enemies, and I
saw the banner of Victory.
Next, I encountered a black object blocking my path, but the
verse "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of
love and of a sound mind" empowered me to take action. I drew my sword
and cut through the obstacle. Then, I climbed a hill on horseback, and
miraculously, my horse's feet became agile like a deer's, allowing me to ascend
effortlessly. This experience reminded me of Psalm 18:33, which says,
"He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; He enables me to stand on the
heights." During my ascent, I also faced a small, tortoise-like
creature made of stone, representing Anxiety. With swift movements, I
dispatched it with my sword and continued upward, finally reaching the top of
the hill.
This experience was witnessed by seven or eight of us in
real and even visitation in the spiritual realm was witnessed by five of us and
saw each other's battlefield too at some point in the vision.
Angelic choir:
As we sang in tongues for hours, we were joined by an
angelic choir, creating a surreal experience. We received a revelation that
this song would bring healing to people.It was such beautiful sound with
different parts and soothing choral voice.

God's army and the devil's army:
"I had a vision of two armies: God's army and the
devil's army. The devil's army was vast, with thousands of soldiers who
resembled ancient nomads with black bowl-cut hair. In contrast, God's army was
smaller, but its members wore the armor of God, adorned with red and gold
borders. A distinguishing feature of God's army was the presence of a tall
figure, who upon closer inspection, appeared to be the angel Michael."
This experience profoundly impacted us, increasing our
awareness of the spiritual realm and the importance of God's armor, as
described in Ephesians 6:12-13. According to Scripture, "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" (Ephesians 6:12). Therefore, we are
called to "put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil
comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done
everything, to stand" (Ephesians 6:13).
God is real and so is the devil's existence to tempt people
to sin.
Acts
16:31, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy
house."
Amen!
Shalom
