A COUPLE HAD SERIOUS DISAGREEMENT AND I HAPPENED TO BE THE COUNSELLOR.

A COUPLE HAD SERIOUS DISAGREEMENT AND I HAPPENED TO BE THE COUNSELLOR.
After trying to offer my candid intervention in terms of counselling. I took it up in prayer of intercession.
After about 3 weeks on my knees. Then two evil personalities appeared to me and told me to stop praying for the couple.
One funny thing is that the couple didn't know i was praying. They never thought I can go beyond just counselling. They were not aware I took up their case before the Lord to really understand what was happening against the family.
Yes we have an intercessory team of about 40 people that prays everyday since 868 days. But I didn't pass the matter to them until I personally finished my intercession and hit a rock after 21 days.
What motivated me is how very nice that young family has been to me. Much more the compassion for their souls. To me,I strongly believe in making sacrifices for other's without them knowing.
So on this particular day,the strange spirit paid me a visit on my knees when interceeding and told me to stop praying for the couple. I tried to probe why? Then I discovered that family was being manipulated and already marked to scatter. I had certain further discussion and commanded the evil spirit to go away.
They left my space but something happened after. My left arm became motionless. It became another battle and on the spot,the Lord sent His angels to heal me.
Immediately I stood from my knees and put a call through to the family in disagreement. I told the wife about serious spiritual cause of their fight. And how God wanted me to let them know what's happening spiritually.
She was surprised to know I digged deeper than just counselling them. She thought their disagreement was just physical and emotional. They were already blaming each other and they both were actually right.
Little did they knew it's a deep spiritual manipulation and attack against their marriage.
It was then I had to push the matter to the intercessory group.
Sometimes you don't fight other people's battles alone. Else you're not wise. You must engage your team. Or you must ensure your spouse pray on the matter with you. Two or three people praying together has enormous strength released to them than just one person. Reason you need to join us every night too so we can pray together at 11pm to 12am . Never stand alone.
Do you know, you can have genuine reason to blame others and you won't know the matter is beyond blaming.
A lot of marriages have scattered or about to scatter simply because no one is genuinely standing in the gap for them. They only offer counselling and counselling doesn't solve certain spiritual manipulation. What works is serious intercession and not just therapeutic words.
Now you know, that you shouldn't just handle matters in your life,marriage, work on the surface level. You must pray! and pray! Or have genuine men around you who can dig deep into unravelling manipulation and settle issues beyond the surface level. Such men are actually rare but God has them.
Is your life,work,home under attack?
Stop blaming.
Stop claiming your rights.
Start praying and God is well able to settle the matter.
There is always a spiritual angle to everything happening to everyone. Stop using physical knowledge. Pray and you will discover that spiritual knowledge will be exposed to you and through it there will be solution.
Thanks for reading and understanding.
