Dear Editor,

Have you ever wondered why we have the problems that we do as a people, as a nation, and as individuals? And why is it that as one problem seems to end, there arises another one? Then the inevitable question: Who is at fault?

These are some of the spiritual encounters we go through from the womb to the tomb. There seems to be no end and the circle continues in our generation and many times until death. But there is freedom in Christ Jesus.

A child whose identity is confused because he/she does not know his/her father is wearing a crown that makes his/her life miserable, annoying, unfulfilled, and he/she may blame the mother, father, adoptive parents, etc and himself/herself continuously. Or he/she might have been a product of rape, unwanted pregnancy, incest, conception after an abortion (this makes that child vulnerable to near-death experiences in most cases), mother being impregnated by a witch doctor, negative spiritual inheritance, witchcraft attack, etc. Some might have been rejected from the womb or abandoned after birth, and the list goes on. Obviously, the majority of the problems begin from the womb or early childhood.

However, externally, the following factors may have a major impact on a child, such as adoption, abuse, childbirth rituals or superstitions, childhood Revival practice, witchcraft, wrong or demonic names, child dedication and guardian spirit, cursed inheritance, and so on. Furthermore, until the root of the problem is dealt with, the victim continues to suffer.

Spiritual interference precipitates problems that may last until death if affected individuals do not receive the help that is needed. The society might even blame the victim and perhaps avoid them, although they are not responsible.

There are numerous conception affairs in human development that cannot be explained or corrected by medical science, witchcraft, psychic diagnosis, evil pronouncements, or human devices of any kind. As a matter of fact, some of those aforementioned are more originators of the problems rather than solutions. I have seen body distortions and malformations; skin problems; depression; sicknesses and diseases; and other situations from birth corrected through spiritual warfare.

Other symptoms include migraine, headaches, stuttering, problems of the reproductive organs, digestive organs, mental retardation, hallucination, barreness, failure, and poverty. The victims suffer until adulthood and even to the grave.

Without the required knowledge to destroy these problems they become false identities and strongholds in the life of the victim, with the capacity to multiply itself in future generations. It becomes a habit or lifestyle and some sufferers believe it’s part of their lives and must be endured, but it should instead be destroyed through spiritual warfare.

But look no further, Jesus will set you free!
