Today, we are picking a small portion of Environmental Deliverance.
In this headquarters, by that area where we used to have the information office many years back in 1995, the Ministers were holding a prayer vigil in church.
At the time, it was just Auditorium A we had. They called me and said, Sir, something has happened.”They told me that as they were praying, they saw three birds flying above them.
They pointed at them and said, “In the name of Jesus, if you are on an evil assignment, crash land now.”
One of the birds fell, and two flew away. The one that dropped became an old woman. So they called me to come and see. I came and saw the woman.
I asked her, Mummy, what are you doing here
She replied, “Actually, we are not supposed to come here. We did not know they were praying here. If we knew, we would not pass through. We are going to Unilag.
I then said, “Okay, now that you have seen that a power greater than yours made you crash land, will you surrender your life to Jesus?”
She was quick to answer in Yoruba. She said, “God forbid.
Meanwhile, neighbours had started gathering. They said,“G.O., let us stone this woman. I replied, “No, not here. Release her to go.”
This is not the first time this kind of thing is happening.
In a crusade in the Midwestern part of Nigeria, as prayers were going on, a bird fell on the speakers, and by the time they looked, a young girl was sitting there.
There is something called environmental deliverance.
I was in Obafemi Awolowo University for a crusade. The Pastors who followed me will remember this story.
Everything was going on well when it was about three minutes for me to come to the altar in the open field. All of a sudden, the whole arena became dark at 4 pm. Was it suddenly becoming night? No.
By the time we lifted up our heads, thousands of black birds had covered the sky above us. They were so many that they blocked the sunlight.
I smiled, took the microphone and said to the students,
“See what is happening? Some were scared.
I said again, point your fingers to the heavens and say, You satanic birds, hear the Word of God, catch fire.’
We had not prayed for up to one minute before the place cleared.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I am praying for somebody here today:
Any satanic bird gathered against you, shall scatter unto desolation in the name of Jesus.
Let us do a small Bible study. Let us ponder a bit. Genesis 1:20 tells us the origin of birds.
Genesis 1:20 (KJV) says,
And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.”
Birds actually came forth from the water. That is why you see their movement when they fly is like that of the fish when it swims. Then again, you know that there is something known as marine powers.
Genesis 15:7-11 (KJV) says:
- “And he said unto him, I am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.
- And he said, Lord GOD, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
- And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years old, and a she goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.
- And he took unto him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each piece one against another: but the birds divided he not.
- And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away.
He was sacrificing unto God, and the birds came down to eat the sacrifice, to spoil what he was doing. What did Abraham do? He drove them away.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION.
The power for you to drive away every evil birds around you, receive that power in the name of Jesus.
In Matthew 13:4, it is amazing how Jesus used birds to symbolise Satan.
Matthew 13:4 (KJV) says,
“And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:
Jesus began to interpret the parable.
Matthew 13:18-19 (KJV) says,
- “Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
- When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.”
So those birds that come to pick the Word of God, Jesus likened them to Satan, the wicked one.
Isaiah 8:19 (KJV) says,
“And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?
“Peep” and “mutter”*are the noises people hear at night by the evil agents of the night.
They peep and mutter. So, do not be surprised when you hear people talk about bush babies. They hear the cry of children in the night.
What is a baby doing outside at night? It is actually not any baby; it is a wizard that peeps and mutters.
