Just a few weeks ago, Rocky and I experienced a medical event that really took us by surprise. The symptoms and the diagnostic tests were not identifying the problem, and as the days continued with no apparent cause to the why of this off and on again, “burning type sensation,” it finally reached a peak as it progressed and emerged into an emergency situation. We had not planned for this interruption and it was something that we had no control over whatsoever. However nothing is hidden from Our Master, The Lord knows, and HE HAS KNOWN, this surely taking HIM not by surprise, HE IS IN CONTROL (Duet. 33:27 & Ps. 139:1-4).

 

 A ruptured appendix, ruptured intestines, surgery and six days in the Hospital away from the “Cloud, The Shekinah Glory” of God’s Presence at Shiloh will open your eyes up to a reality of the many imposing antichrist spirits that operate in the different environments of society. At Shiloh though, we have the privilege to create an atmosphere for men to encounter His Presence (Ps. 16:11).

 

 The duration of my hospitalization, I saw many faces entering my room, as 95% of those faces were Medical Professionals, providing to me medical services. These people live and work here, but are from numerous different nationalities. I was amazed watching THE WORLD enter into my room. I have prayed for The Nations, I have prayed for people groups, and now camped out in a hospital room in which I did not register for, I see the Nations before me. God’s Precious Creation, Red, and Yellow, Black and White, they are all precious in HIS SIGHT  (Ps. 46:10).

 

I would like to say that my entire event after surgery was quite majestic and lovely and that I was strong and doing exploits continually but that is not how it went. I will not attempt to explain away what I discerned by the Holy Spirit but will say, He revealed to me the demonic realm. I sensed many spirits lurking up and down the corridors of that Medical Establishment. I sensed fear, confusion, sickness, and disease, all types of infirmity, pride, arrogance, and death.

 

It was a battle not only in the physical realm, but that in the Spiritual realm even the more. I realize to a greater degree now how dependent we must be on this Truth, “Jesus Christ is Lord!” (Col. 2:15-16). He has given His people the supernatural ability to bring the Kingdom of God into  any atmosphere to alter it so people can encounter Him (1Cor. 4:20).  The Lord God has given to us His authority (Lk. 10:19)in order to bring Heavens way of doing things to earth (Matt. 6:10). The Helper, The Sweet Holy Spirit gives us revelation to identify that which is a thief to our peace, and also that which is keeping multitudes in a state of bondage in which they are completely oblivious to (Gal. 5:25 & Jn. 14:26-27).

 

 Inside the hospital where I was treated is a Traditional Christian Chapel, as in most Hospitals in this Nation. This Chapel is a place provided for those who want some quiet solitude and a designated Altar, a meeting place if you will, with The Lord God Almighty, Jehovah God, The One and only TRUE GOD. However, I learned that there is also a Mosque inside this Hospital for the many practicing Muslims calling out to Allah (a demonic deity), there is something so wrong about this. It is becoming more evident that we are living in an increasingly hostile world. It takes no master in Theology to realize the depravity of the antichrist movement that has invaded our culture (Phil. 2:9-10 & Col. 2:9-10).

 

In the midst of this personal battle, (I do have the scars I might add) some great things did occur. I got to take the hands of several of my medical providers, (I never asked permission) sensing the urgency and being led by The Holy Spirit, I prayed aloud while holding their hands. I asked MY GOD to show them HIS LOVING KINDNESS, how wonderful, glorious, fabulous, loving, merciful HE is. There were several episodes where I had a decision to make on the spot and so TRUE to HIS ATTRIBUTES, My Helper, The Sweet Holy Spirit led me to always walk in the opposite spirit of opposing spirits. When arrogance would come in my door, I knew to humble myself, when fear and confusion would try to grip my heart and hold me in captivity, I blessed those individuals with words to My Father IN JESUS NAME on their behalf. “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me,” John 10 :27.

 
This is a season of our lives that we never signed up for but the lessons that we are learning are continuing to fortify us in every area of our lives and it has stirred us to testify even more so that “THE LORD GOD IS GOOD, And HIS MERCY ENDURETH FOREVER ,”Psalms 100:5.

 

Yes, there is a battle, BUT GOD, HE surely has told us in HIS WORD, “In this world you will have trouble, but be of good cheer, for I have overcome the world,”  John 16:33. When trouble comes, We must be resolved that we have within us the Supernatural Ability to rise above even the most horrific situations of life and also gain some spoils of war for HIS GLORY. We must be careful not having merely a survivors mentality, but truly an overcomer who tenaciously desires to take ground back for OUR LORD (Ps. 62:8).

 

In concluding what was learned from this experience, God is Good, He is Love and He is Faithful. I am very grateful for His Mercy and for His Grace. Also in times of trouble and hardships we had the Body of Christ to stand in the place of an intercessor, praying for me & Rocky. We are grateful for the prayers that strengthen me and caused me to rise up and minister to people at the hospital, even through major surgery. Only God and His grace can change our perspective in what we may first view and experience as horrific,  to bless a  world that so desperately needs the atmosphere of God.
