I want to share my journey. This is not theory. It’s my lived experience. Around 100 days ago, I became a born-again Christian. Jesus came to me one night. It was supernatural. The next day, I was baptized with the Holy Spirit. Convictions hit me everywhere. My whole life changed overnight.
The Early Signs
At first, I felt fire in my hands when I prayed. The burning was real. It convinced me Jesus was alive. That sensation didn’t last forever. Later, I realized the gift of discernment was too strong for me at that time. I saw demons in people. It overwhelmed me. I even let go of it, asking God to take it back.
I also had a battle with semen retention. To be honest, I broke it once to get relief from the intensity. After that, the burning in my hands never returned. But the journey continued.
Learning to Pray
Prayer was new to me. I came from an atheist, agnostic background. I didn’t know how to pray. When I tried, groans and strange sounds came out of me. I doubted myself. Was I praying to the right God? Was I even saved?
Then one day I went to church. I saw a man cast out a demon. I was shocked. It was just like the videos online. That moment confirmed deliverance is real. After that, I felt lighter and more at peace.
Attacks and Resistance
The more I prayed, the more opposition came. People mocked me. Some even said I needed to be locked up. I saw the same patterns in David’s Psalms. He wrote about being attacked by drunks and enemies. For me, it felt like the same spirits working through people. They wanted me back in darkness.
What Happened to Me
- Groans came out in prayer.
- My throat got sore, just like David described in Psalms.
- At times I felt completely empty and numb.
- Then breakthrough came, and I felt euphoria.
- My face would even twitch or contort.
- And yes — one day I actually vomited during prayer.
It shocked me, but it was real. Deliverance can show up in physical ways.
Table: My Reactions in Prayer
| Experience | What It Felt Like |
|---|---|
| Burning hands | A sign of God’s presence early in my journey. |
| Groans and cries | Sounds I couldn’t control, like the Bible’s “groans indescribable.” |
| Numbness and emptiness | A heavy dead feeling before breakthrough. |
| Euphoria | A rush of joy and freedom after release. |
| Face contortions | Strange expressions while demons left. |
| Vomiting | A physical release of oppression during deliverance. |
| Spiritual blowback | Temptations and Jezebel-type attacks that followed breakthrough. |
Lessons in Deliverance
I’ve learned you can’t ram truth down people’s throats. At first, I shouted “Jesus is real!” everywhere. But people need to ask questions on their own. The Holy Spirit is not given to disbelievers who harden their hearts. They think it’s crazy. The Bible even says they will.
That’s why prayer is the key. Pray for them. Pray for yourself. Even if all you say is: “Father in heaven, if You are real, show me.” That simple prayer can open the door.
Vomiting as a Turning Point
When I vomited during prayer, I realized how real this battle is. It was messy but freeing. I felt lighter afterward. Every time something leaves, you gain more peace and clarity. The numbness breaks. The Holy Spirit fills the space.
Final Encouragement
Keep pressing in. Even when you feel weak or empty. Even when people call you crazy. Stay obedient. Use anointing oil. Wash your face. Pray with all your heart.
This world looks insane right now. Some people can’t see it. The Bible calls it “scales over their eyes.” But hearts are opening like never before. God is moving.
Key Steps That Helped Me
- Start with honest, simple prayers.
- Push through confusion and numbness.
- Expect spiritual resistance.
- Accept that physical reactions may happen.
- Use deliverance prayers boldly.
- Prepare with anointing oil and Scripture.
- Watch out for spiritual blowback.
That’s my story. Raw, messy, and real. Jesus is alive. Deliverance is real. If you seek Him with all your heart, He will meet you.
