Chapter 17: Exorcism

Written on 5 November 2008


During one of our cellgroup fellowship, we discussed about casting out demons. Hirai asked each of us whether we have experienced about exorcism. Then Winston pointed at me, and says, “Jack, I thought you had experienced this before?”

Readers, can you believe Jack’s Stuff experienced this too? Heard of the movie – Exorcism of Emily Rose?
Do you think it is true that exorcism exists?
Here is my story.

On 14 June 2006, 10am in the morning, Mary invited us to do the home blessing for her house. There were me, a pastor and a lady. Mary was a new Christian who just came to know Jesus at that very time. She is a married woman with two daughters.

When we are inviting Jesus to take care of that house, Mary suddenly felt unconscious and falls to the ground. We are shocked to see that! We saw her struggling on the ground, twisting her body up and down, moving like a worm and her face is full of sweat. The most obvious thing is that her eyes were fully in white and she was breathing in difficulty. At that time, we truly know that she was possessed by an evil spirit. She was tortured bitterly. If you had seen the movie: Exorcism of Emily Rose, you will understand what I am talking about.


In the holy name of Jesus Christ, We prayed for her and even ordered the evil spirit to get out of her. The movies always mislead the people. The handmade Cross, and the handmade Bible books are not the tool to drive the evil spirits away from the people. There is NO such thing as Holy Water. You do not need garlic or any nonsense to drive them away. ONLY by the holy name of JESUS CHRIST, all evil spirits will be driven away. Amen!


After praying, she started to feel better. She explained why she was possessed. She used to worship the demon before she came to know Jesus Christ. The demon did not want to let go of her. She still kept a mysterious “thing” which belonged to the demon under her bed because she doubted that Jesus Christ is the only one and true God. Immediately, Mary confessed her sin and went into the room to take the “thing”. When she was about to destroy the “thing”, she was possessed AGAIN!

Suddenly, Mary’s voice changed into a MONSTER’s voice. She was NOT herself anymore. She stood up and reacted differently. She jumped up and down, and shouted loudly. Her eyeballs turned into RED. As we prayed louder, the demon started to laugh even louder!! We grabbed hold of Mary tightly, but the demon’s power is overwhelming.


The most interesting thing is that the pastor’s voice CHANGED TOO!! Her voice sounded like a Godly man’s voice with strong authority! She kept repeating the sentence, “IN THE NAME OF JESUS, I commanded you to get out RIGHT NOW!” Immediately, the demon fled in fear and Mary was no longer possessed. She was saved by Jesus Christ

At last, I would like to say that demons, devils or evil spirits may be very scary to human beings. However, Jesus Christ is the only God whom demons, devils, and evil spirits are afraid of.

Philippians 2:10
“that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,”

Romans 14:11
“It is written: " 'As surely as I live,' says the Lord, 'every knee will bow before me; every tongue will confess to God.' "

This testimony is true. It was witnessed by Jack’s Stuff. One thing I wanna emphasize – Why human tend to scare of demons more than Jesus? We human should fear Jesus more. Remember Jesus holds authority of your life and death. If you think God is funny, read this:

Luke 12:4 – 5
“I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear Him who, after the killing of the body, has power to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear Him.”

Demons, devils and evil spirits are included in “those who kill the body and after that can do no more”.

Now you should know who you should fear.
