MY BABY HUSBAND

Episode 39

By Ayo Omolayo

“Enchantment can be defined as an act of overpowering someone through the use of magic or spells or incantations or sorcery. Putting someone under a spell, incantation, fascination, charming”,

“GOOD! YOU HAVE ANSWERED WELL. WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED IN THAT SCRIPTURE DESCRIBES THE TWO FOLD DEMONIC STRATEGY OF ATTACK”.

“Daddy! I’m lost! First, you were talking about Spiritual Enchantment. You have not finished telling me what it is!”

“CALM DOWN DEAR! EVERYTHING I’M SAYING WILL EXPLAIN SPIRITUAL ENCHANTMENT. JUST KEEP WRITING”.

“Okay!”

“FIRST, THE FALSE PROPHET WAS INVITED TO CURSE GOD’S PEOPLE. HE TRIED AND TRIED AND ENDED UP BLESSING THEM. WHY?

BECAUSE THE PEOPLE WERE STANDING IN ALIGNMENT WITH GOD. THEY WERE IN THEIR RIGHT STANDING WITH GOD. THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD WAS STILL INTACT. THAT’S WHY THE CURSES COULDN’T WORK.

WHEN BALAAM KNEW HE WAS LOSING THE BATTLE, HE SWITCHED FORMATION. HE OPTED FOR PLAN B. WHICH IS THE TWO FOLD DEMONIC STRATEGY OF ATTACK.

THE FIRST IS SPIRITUAL ENCHANTMENT. IT’S BRINGING A CHRISTIAN UNDER A DEMONIC SPELL”.

“Daddy! I thought spells only existed in movies?”

“MOST OF THOSE MOVIES ARE MORE SPIRITUAL THAN MERE ENTERTAINMENT. SPELLS EXISTS AND THEY ARE STILL IN USE TODAY.

THE SECOND STRATEGY OF ATTACK IS WHAT I CALL, DEMONIC PROJECTION”.

“Hmmm! Demonic Projection. What does that mean?” I asked.

“IT’S PUTTING THEIR AGENTS AT STRATEGIC PLACES WHERE YOU ARE BOUND TO MEET EACH OTHER”.

“Wow!”

“IF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE STORY OF BALAAM, YOU WOULD COME ACROSS THAT PART OF THE STORY. WHEN BALAAM SAW HE COULD NOT CURSE GOD’S PEOPLE, HE GAVE THE KING AN ADVICE.

THIS WAS TO SEND THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MOABITE GIRLS INTO THE CAMP OF ISRAEL AND LURE GOD’S PEOPLE INTO IDOL WORSHIPPING. OPEN TO NUMBERS 25:1. READ FROM VERSE ONE TO NINE”.

I quickly opened to the passage and read.

“Verse 1. And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.

Verse 2. And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.

Verse 3. And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.

Verse 4. And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up before the LORD against the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel.

Verse 5. And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baalpeor.

Verse 6. And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

Verse 7. And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;

Verse 8. And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.

Verse 9. And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand”.

I sighed deeply.

“Wow! So Balaam ended up destroying twenty four thousand Israelites. This man was wicked. All because of money, fame and power. This is wickedness!” I said frowning.

“THE DEVIL SENDS PARTICULAR PEOPLE INTO YOUR LIFE, WHO PRETEND TO BE FRIENDS BUT ARE ON A MISSION FROM HELL. THAT’S WHAT MOAB DID TO ISRAEL, JUST TO DESTROY THEM. THEY SENT SLAY QUEENS INTO THE CAMP OF ISRAEL AND ENDED UP BRINGING FORNICATION INTO THE CAMP ALONG WITH IDOLATRY.

SOON, GOD HIMSELF HAD TO DESTROY HIS OWN PEOPLE. THAT’S HOW STRATEGIC SATAN IS!” BUT WE CHRISTIANS ARE SAFE AS LONG AS WE OBEY WHATEVER GOD TELLS US TO DO.

“Yes sir!”

“WELL THAT’S FOR THE PLAN B. WHAT WE REALLY WANT TO TALK ABOUT IS, SPIRITUAL ENCHANTMENT.

“Okay sir!”

“SPIRITUAL ENCHANTMENT ARE UTTERANCES MADE ON A CHRISTIAN TO MANIPULATE HIM INTO BEHAVING IN A WAY THAT HE HIMSELF CANNOT EXPLAIN WHY HE BEHAVES THAT WAY.

HAVE YOU HEARD PEOPLE SAY, I DON’T KNOW HOW I ENDED UP DOING IT. I CAN’T EXPLAIN HOW IT HAPPENED. ALL I KNOW IS THAT I FOUND MYSELF UNABLE TO STOP. EVEN WHEN EVERYONE WAS WARNING ME, I JUST COULDN’T STOP.

HAVE YOU HEARD SOMEONE SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT?”

“Yes!” I answered.

“EXACTLY!”

“But Daddy!”

“YES!”

“As Christians, Demonic spells are not supposed to work on a child of God. Am I correct?”

“YES YOU ARE. INFACT THAT WAS WHY BALAAM TRIED AND TRIED BUT COULD NOT CURSE GOD’S PEOPLE. DEMONIC SPELLS AND ENCHANTMENT CANNOT WORK ON A CHRISTIAN WHO IS IN RIGHT STANDING WITH GOD.

OPEN TO ECCLESIASTES CHAPTER 8, VERSE 5. READ THE FIRST PART OF IT”.

I opened to the passage and read.

“Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing…..”, I read.

“OPEN TO CHAPTER TEN OF ECCLESIASTES AND READ THE SECOND PART OF VERSE 8”.

“……whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him”.

“AS A CHRISTIAN YOU ARE UNTOUCHABLE TO THE POWERS OF DARKNESS AS LONG AS THE ENEMY CANNOT FIND THEIR PROPERTY WITH YOU. WHEN WE SIN, WE HAVE TO REPENT IMMEDIATELY. SIN OPENS ALOT OF ACCESS DOORS FOR DEMONS TO CAUSE HAVOC.

WHEN A BELIEVER LIVES IN SIN, HE’S AN EASY PREY FOR THE DEVIL. SATAN CAN EASILY PUT A CHAIN AROUND HIS NECK AND ENSLAVE HIM TO SINFUL HABITS. THESE ARE THE KINDS OF CHRISTIANS SPELLS WORK ON.

SO SPIRITUAL ENCHANTMENT IS LIKE WHEN A CHRISTIAN IS BEWITCHED. WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS? WHY DO YOU BEHAVE LIKE THIS? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?

HE CANNOT EXPLAIN. HE ONLY FINDS HIMSELF DOING IT. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS TO OUR LOVED ONES WE REFUSE TO INTERCEDE FOR. OPEN TO GALATIANS CHAPTER THREE, VERSE ONE”.

I opened my Bible and read. I was seriously enjoying the class. I forgot I was supposed to be in bed.

“Galatians 3:1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?”

“CAN YOU SEE FOR YOURSELF?”

“Wow! That’s awesome!” I remarked.

“PAUL WAS ABLE TO DISCERN THAT WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO THESE GALATIANS WAS BEYOND ORDINARY. THESE PEOPLE WERE ONCE FERVENT CHRISTIANS BEFORE. THEY WERE ON FIRE FOR JESUS. SUDDENLY, THEY STARTED MISBEHAVING. THEY STOPPED GOING TO CHURCH. THEY STOPPED EVANGELISM. THEY STOPPED PRAYING. EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM CHANGED.

THEY STARTED CHASING WOMEN AROUND LIKE UNBELIEVERS. THE GIRLS STARTED FOLLOWING BOYS AROUND. EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM CHANGED.

AND YOU KNOW THE USUAL ATTITUDE OF CHRISTIANS. THEY GET ANGRY WITH THESE KIND OF PEOPLE.

“That’s completely true. These kind of Christians are usually frustrating. If you try to preach to them. You become their enemy. If you try to invite them to church, they give alot of flimsy excuses. They can insult you in such a way that a sound believer will start nursing bitterness towards them.

“UNKNOWING TO YOU THAT THEY ARE UNDER SPIRITUAL ENCHANTMENT!”

“Wow! This is a great revelation!”

“INDEED! SO INSTEAD OF PRAYING FOR THEM, WHAT’S THE POPULAR SLANG MOST BELIEVERS USE?”

“Why should I pray for that boy? He’s not serious with his life. If he likes let him continue sleeping around with anything in skirt, it is none of my business. God knows I have warned him. I have done my best.

I can’t waste my prayers in a boy who is so stubborn. I have other things to pray for. He’s an unserious fellow. I don’t hate him. Infact I have forgiven him all the insults he threw at me, but I can’t be wasting my time praying for someone that is not willing to change”.

“EXACTLY CRIS! YOU’RE SO SMART! THAT’S WHAT ALOT OF BELIEVERS DO! AND SATAN WOULD BE AT HIS CORNER ENJOYING THE SHOW!”

“Aah Jesus! My people perish for lack of understanding! Oh Jesus! This is too much! No wonder you said in your word. Love your enemies. Pray for those who persecute you.

We don’t have physical enemies. Those people Satan paints as our enemies are only victims of his demonic spells.

“YES! BECAUSE THAT SAME PAUL WHO WAS SO NOTORIOUS FOR PERSECUTING CHRISTIANS, IF INTERCEDED FOR, CAN BECOME A MIGHTY APOSTLE TOMORROW!”

“Wow! Satan is such a deciever. Just look at how many of us are fooled by the attitude of our Christian brothers and sisters. We start getting angry with them because of their lifestyles, when we should be angry with the Devil and fight on our knees for our loved ones.

We try to talk to them, but our words cannot do anything because a man under a spell has no choice but to follow the bidding of the enchanter”.

“EXACTLY CRIS!”

“Oh Jesus! So this was where Harmony’s mum failed you. She talked and talked to her daughter, thinking words could change her. Sometimes, she yelled at her daughter and quarrelled with her, but to no avail. And when it was time to pray, she allowed bitterness towards her daughter stop her from standing in the gap”.

“YES!”

“So, what about my mentor? Didn’t I also insult her? I called her a crazy woman. I lied to her several times. How did she end up standing in the gap for me?”

“CRIS! YOU OWE THAT WOMAN ALOT. AT FIRST SHE WAS BITTER TOWARDS YOU. IT WAS A STRUGGLE. BUT HER HUSBAND’S PRAYERS CAME TO ME. I HAD TO GO AFTER HER AND TEACH HER ALOT ABOUT FORGIVENESS AND INTERCESSION.

SHE NEVER WANTED TO PRAY FOR YOU AGAIN. BUT I KEPT TALKING TO HER, UNTILL SHE FINALLY AGREED. SHE STOOD IN THE GAP AND BEGAN TO CAST HER SPELLS AS WELL. IT WAS HER PRAYERS THAT MADE CHRIS SO STUPID TO REVEAL HIS SECRET AGENDA TO YOU. IT WAS HER PRAYERS THAT PROVOKED YOUR FATHER-IN-LAW TO DISCOURAGE YOU FROM MARRYING HIS SON.

IT WAS ALL INTERCESSION. THE MOST POWERFUL WAY TO CONTROL THE PHYSICAL REALM IS TO BEND THOSE KNEES IN PRAYERS. YOUR PRAYERS WOULD CONTROL PEOPLE LIKE ROBOTS. HOW YOU ENDED UP OPENING UP TO HER, YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND. SHE HAD BEEN PRAYING THAT YOU DO SO LONG AGO.

SHE HAD ALSO BEEN PRAYING THAT YOU WOULD FULFIL YOUR DESTINY. YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE SO STUBBORN. YOU WANTED TO HAVE YOUR OWN WILL. YOU WANTED TO MARRY CHRIS WHETHER GOD LIKED IT OR NOT. OYA GO AND MARRY NA!”

I burst into laughter.

“Daddy don’t push me oh! I will marry Chris oh! You don’t know what I’m capable of doing!”

“GO AHEAD AND MARRY! YOU HAVE MY BLESSING!”

I laughed so hard that my stomach tightened.

“CRIS AFTER ALL YOUR STRUGGLE. YOUR RISING AND FALLING. HERE YOU ARE! IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD. LEARNING AND GROWING IN GRACE EVERYDAY. GRADUALLY WALKING INTO YOUR CALLING AND PURPOSE IN LIFE. SOMETHING THAT LOOKED SO IMPOSSIBLE TO YOU. BUT THE PRAYERS OF ONE WOMAN MADE ALL THIS POSSIBLE”.

I bowed my head and exhaled.

“Lord! This is too much! I can’t believe you did all these for me!”

To be continued…….

Brethren, who is that person next to you going astray?

You have talked and talked, preached and preached, yet nothing is happening.

Stop the preaching, get down on your knees and fight that god of this world who had blinded their eyes.

When you collect their eyes from him in the realm of the spirit, that’s when you’ll speak to them and their eyes would be opened.

Stop getting angry with them. Fight for them! They are not enemies, but Satan’s victims.

Lord! Give us burden for souls. Keep us on our knees praying that men be drawn to your light.

Rescue the backsliden. Cause us to groan in prayers for the souls sinking in the mirey clay of sin.

Let our prayers ascend into the heavens. Let the wife not relent in praying for her husband. Let the friend never stop praying for her friend and let the mother continue asking God to change the heart of her stubborn son.

Give us more intercessors in Jesus name.

I believe God has spoken to you in this episode. This is a call to a rescue mission. Have you been guilty of this?

Turn from such lifestyle and start saving your loved ones. God is still a life changer. He can turn the worst person today into a mighty Apostle Paul tomorrow.
