new believer learns about spiritual warfare

A young Gulf Arab woman, who came to faith a few months ago, is quickly learning about the supernatural. She has had Kingdom dreams and the Lord Himself even visited her in one dream and healed her heart. A few days ago I was in need of God's healing touch due to an injury. My family prayed, Isaac of Ninevah prayed and I didn't notice a difference. When she prayed for me after them, she felt power come out of her and immediately the pain associated with my injury decreased probably 50%. She was very encouraged - it was the first time she had seen herself used in divine healing.

While she was praying, she also got her first word of knowledge - pinpointing the area where I was injured. That also encouraged her. However, after that the enemy really was able to come against her and she actually began to suffer physically and was having difficulty breathing. She called us in a very fearful state. I prayed with her initially and the pain left and she could breathe again normally, but it returned soon after. Desert Princess talked with her the next time, and one of the people we were with got a prophetic word as we were wondering "what door did she have open that is allowing the enemy to attack like this"? The prophetic word was right on and after praying, closing that door in repentance, all the pain left and the attack stopped completely.

This stuff is real - there is a diabolical kingdom of darkness that we often don't truly take seriously in its efforts to come against God's children and the expansion of His Kingdom. This young woman, who only recently turned to Christ from a Muslim background is a prime target as the enemy is trying to thwart her Christian growth in every way he can.

Praise God that she got to see firsthand that the weapons in the God's Kingdom - prophecy, healing, prayer, etc. quickly and adequately defeat those of the enemy of our souls.
