We were the first people to arrive.  The minister Jay Bartlett wasn't even there yet.  We walked into an empty room.  There were several tables set with nice elegant looking burgundy table cloths and pitchers of water with glasses next to them along with notepads and pens.  I wondered how many people would show up.  Suddenly Sonya along with her boyfriend Jake walked in the door along with Sonya's younger brother Nelio.  Sonya was smiling at me, looking very happy to see me.  I was glad to see her too because I hadn't seen her in so long.  Sonya and Jake sat down behind us.  Soon Jay walked in.  He was heavy set wearing a black short sleeved dress shirt.  He looked so jolly and happy smiling every minute.  I then proceeded to break the ice a little bit by telling him that three people that were related were here tonight.  Jay got acquainted with Sonya, Alex and Nelio.  Alex appeared to be rather stiff and had an unpleasant look on his face but he was polite nonetheless.  

    Jay proceeded to teach when two other people came about ten minutes later.  These were all who attended.  I thought to myself, "My, this is a small crowd.  I sure hope he thinks it is worth it to be here."

    Jay asked if everyone was Born Again.  I knew once Alex was asked his demons would erupt.  Everyone answered by saying that they had come to Christ.  By the time he got to Alex the room was strangely quiet.  The demons convinced Alex he wasn't a Christian anymore and that he couldn't even be saved for that matter.  Alex answered Jay by saying he didn't think he was Born Again.  Jay then said, "We'll fix that.   Let's pray."  Then surprisingly Alex agreed to pray with Jay.  Jay told him to repeat after him.

    Alex struggled to pray but then his words got caught in his throat and he could not go on.  Meanwhile I overheard Sonya and Jake behind us praying quietly interceding for Alex.  They sounded as if they were almost weeping.  I was moved by their compassion.  I knew that at any moment this demon that was hindering Alex would erupt.  This demon I was oh so familiar with by now. I saw it manifest at that moment saying the same old things.  "NEVER!"  he snarled in a deep guttural voice.  Jay immediately came over to challenge the demon.  I knew enough by now to move anything out of the way that could get knocked over so I moved the water jug right out of the way along with the glasses.  I wondered if this was going to get violent recalling past times of deliverance where people had to hold Alex down.   Jay asked the demon it's name and it proudly boasted, "Baphomet!"

    Jay was soon distracted by Sonya sobbing uncontrollably then the sobbing turned into a demon manifesting.  Jay then left Alex binding Baphomet as he left to attend to Sonya.  As soon as he ran to attend to Sonya he suddenly said, "I draw a bloodline right there on the ground and you demons cannot cross it!"  As soon as he said that, Alex's body perked up as if something had been cut between he and his cousin.  He jerked suddenly.  He just sat there calmly after that.  Then when Jay interrogated Sonya's demon he found out it was a generational demon of witchcraft from her grandmother.  I wondered if it just had hopped back and forth this easily between family members. No wonder Alex was at times unusually afraid of Sonya not knowing exactly why.   It wasn't her, but this generational demon that actually was capable of going back and forth between them.

     Alex sat at the table for the longest time.  I knew that the demon's goose was cooked whether Alex wanted him to be or not!  And let me tell  you, I was so tired.  I was so weary because of the past year.   There wasn't one bright or happy day.  All I had was a year of misery.  My boyfriend wasn't even a boyfriend.  He was taken over by a mob of demons and Alex himself was held captive somewhere.

    Baphomet was a strong demon that came from a Satanic Rock music oath Alex made when he was a youngster.  After Jay was done delivering Sonya he then asked Alex to come to the middle of the room.  Alex then slowly proceeded to walk to the center of the room rather reluctantly.  

    Jay walked over to Alex and then proceeded to wrap invisible heavy chains around the demons in the spirit realm.  He said, "In Jesus name, I now wrap you in chains."  He wrapped the chains around Alex seven times.  This reminded me of the Old Testament account of Jericho where God's people were told to march around the city seven times.  Aelx could not move, he stood there frozen as Jay then dealt with the demon.  How different this was from what I had seen at the Church where six men had to hold Alex down.  Since there was only one of Jay, I realized why he must have been led by the Holy Spirit to wrap him in chains.  Then Jay pointed to the top of Alex's chest near his neck and said, "I strip you of your demonic armor in the name of Jesus."  Then he appeared to be taking it off with his hands.  I knew Christians wore armor, but this was the first time I had heard of demons having armor.

    Then more demons manifested in him, demons of generational hatred.  Jay then asked Alex to forgive his relatives.  At first he was rather reluctant but Jay warned him that he doesn't want to leave this place without having dealt with these demons because they could try to kill him.  I knew what was at stake and Alex did too, but even this was not enough to convince him.  He reluctantly began to pray to release forgiveness to his mother.  But when it came to his father he had a huge resistance.  Jay then led by the Holy Spirit, spoke to Alex about not wanting to pass on generational hatred to his own child someday and urged him to break the curse.  He then asked about his father, "Are you angry at your father?"  

    "Yes!"  Alex confessed unwilling to pray any further. 

     "Do you want him to pay?  Do you want revenge for what he did to you?"  Jay questioned.

    "Yes!" Alex snapped.

     "Do you want him to die?"  Jay asked.

    At that point Alex said, "No, I don't want him to die!"   Then he was able to pray along to release forgiveness to his father.  We were all holding our breath at that moment.  What broke through was Jay's appeal to the little bit of love left in Alex to where he would not want his father to die.  There was a thread left of love which he was able to finally grab on to and say, "Yes, I will forgive my father!"  As soon as forgiveness was released the demons were rip roaring mad.  Baphomet was still fighting hard saying that Alex was bound to an oath that could not be broken.

    Jay asked us if anyone knew anything about this.  I told him that he had drawn a Baphomet symbol on his wall as a teenager.  Then Nelio told him that there was an oath in a song that he liked by a group called Mercyful Fate.  The group's name by the way, is the epitome of what they do not stand for.  The demon boasted that he made Alex draw that symbol on the wall and said that Alex loved it.  Jay had Alex denounce the group, and denounce the oath.  The demon all along had been calling Alex a weak person and a little fucker which was it's favorite term to use in reference to him.  Jay then motioned while he said, "The pentagram Baphomet symbol is now on the floor, Alex is going to step on it and destroy it now in Jesus name."  So then Alex was instructed to stomp on it in the name of Jesus.

    With much vigor Alex stomped his foot several times on the floor shouting, "In Jesus name I destroy you, I break that oath in Jesus name!"  

    Then Jay taunted the demon, "He's not weak like you thought he was."    Jay smiled real big and cast the demon out along with generational hatred.  Alex struggled and heaved as if his insides were coming out.  I knew that these were major strongholds being broken.  

     But, they were guarding the one who I asked for God to give me their head.  This one that had been harassing me through Alex all this time was Insanity.  Insanity boasted about how he made Alex go crazy.  He admitted to causing Dementia and even psychopathic behavior.  The demon kept laughing, and when Jay threatened to send it to the pit the demon said, "I don't care!"

    Jay then said to the spirit of Insanity, "You are so crazy, you don't even care if you go to the pit.  Jesus is going go set Alex free tonight."

    Jay was then led to take a big spear in the spirit world and stick it straight through the demon's head.  He walked over to Alex and looked as if he was sticking something invisible into Alex's forehead.  Then he told the demon to turn around and face the people.  Humiliated the demon turned around and Alex faced all of us.  Then Jay said, "I see the spear, it's a big long spear."  We all just marveled because this demon was  rambling on and on obnoxiously earlier and was suddenly struck silent, knowing full well he was doomed.    It was a moment God wanted me to see.

​     Why?  It was because I had asked God priavetly.  The Bible says if you ask God anything in secret he will reward you publicly  (Matthew 6:6).   You don't know how nice it was to see that demon get it.  Jay humiliated that demon and said, "Now turn around and face the people.  The sword is really long, I can see it."  I said quietly to God at that moment, "Thank you God."​
