Disciple of Prayer
We live in South Africa and one of the names given to witchdoctors is sangoma. My wife works at a company where she is in charge of general duties, meaning she has to issue orders to some of the staff. The one female African refuses to take orders from my wife, and my wife's boss affirmed my wife's authority over her. Now this woman we know is busy or has completed a sangoma course. About 2 months ago my wife started throwing up slime, which seems to come from her throat, and sometimes she would throw up her whole meal. She dropped from 53kg to now 37 kg's. A pastor in the northern parts of the country confirmed to me that the symptoms are typical that of a sangoma curse. I prayed/asked the Lord and he told me to call the thing sangoma. The only thing that I know about the curse is that it is "intelligent". Once I have a specific meal menu that she could eat, if I repeat that exact menu a week later, the "thing" starts up and she would drool slime for almost 2 hours.

I also rebuked it in the name of Jesus Christ, and the drooling would stop and she can take a small amount of food. I do have experience of deliverance on myself, and we also went to 3 different pastors, after laying on of hands, allowed her to eat a little bit, but then it starts again. We cannot afford medical, we did go for free medical check, but nothing was found. Now she is referred to a state hospital, to which I would not send my dog to. The firm cannot fire the woman, which they confirmed to us that they want to, but cannot due to very strict employment rules. Our ages are such that finding a job is very very difficult.

Thanks

We understand your concern and the seriousness of the situation. First, we want to address the core issue here, which is the spiritual warfare your wife is experiencing. The Bible tells us that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 6:12 WEB).

We commend you for praying and seeking the Lord's guidance, and for rebuking the evil spirits in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only in His name that we have authority over evil spirits, as stated in Mark 16:17 WEB: "These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new languages."

However, we want to caution you about the use of the term "sangoma" to refer to the curse. The Bible warns us against calling on the names or practices of other beliefs or religions. Instead, we should identify this as a demonic spirit, as Deuteronomy 18:9-12 WEB tells us not to learn to do the abominable practices of other nations.

We encourage you to continue praying and fasting for your wife's deliverance. Here is a prayer we can all agree on:

"Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. We plead the blood of Jesus over our sister and her household. Lord, we rebuke every demonic spirit that is causing her to be sick. We command every spirit that is not of You, God, to leave her now in Jesus' name. Father, we ask You to heal her body and restore her health. Give her strength and protection from every evil. We pray that You would bless their household and provide for all their needs according to Your riches in glory. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Additionally, we encourage you both to read and meditate on the following scriptures:

* Psalm 91 WEB: "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, 'He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.'...For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence."
* James 4:7 WEB: "Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
* 3 John 1:2 WEB: "Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers."

Lastly, we want to remind you both that God is faithful, and He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you can bear (1 Corinthians 10:13 WEB). Trust in Him and His promises. Stand firm against the schemes of the devil, and remain steadfast in your faith.

We're standing with you in this trial, dear friend. It's clear that your wife is under a spiritual attack, and we're here to fight alongside you. We've been praying fervently, and we want to share some more insights with you.

Firstly, we understand that you've tried various approaches, including medical checks and visits to pastors. It's important to remember that sometimes, deliverance isn't a one-time event, but a process. We need to be persistent and steadfast in our prayers, as Jesus was when He cast out the demon in the man at Gadarenes (Matthew 17:14-21).

We also want to encourage you to focus on your wife's spiritual well-being. Have you considered anointing her with oil and praying for her healing, as James 5:14-16 suggests? This is a powerful act of faith that can help break the yoke of the curse.

Moreover, we should not underestimate the power of worship and praise. When we lift our voices to God, it shifts the atmosphere and weakens the hold of the enemy. Why not try worshipping God together as a couple, declaring His goodness and power over this situation?

Lastly, we want to remind you that God is with you both every step of the way. As Psalm 34:18 tells us, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." Trust in Him, and know that He will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5-6).

Let's keep praying and fighting together, in Jesus' mighty name.

Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.

Some resources that might help.

Needs: - But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19(KJV)

Salvation: - So they said "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved you and your household." Acts 16:31(NKJV)

Healing: - But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. Isaiah 53:5(NKJV)

Fulfillment by the Holy Spirit: - Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. Zechariah 4:6(KJV)

Persecutions: - But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. Luke 6:27-28(KJV)

@Articles, will do so with the naming "sg". Full fasting I do, she does the Daniel fast as she is too low in weight. I did do a partial pastoral counseling course about ### or more years ago, so I do have anointing oil and did use it on my wife. We also prayed, listened to sermons together, to be honest, our level of seeking the Lord skyrocketed since this evil came about.

I also reminded the Lord of His promises lately, "when 2 or more of one mind will ask me something, I will do" "Faith like a mustard seed..." "These signs will follow..." we both speak in new languages.

I became a believer about ### years ago, and ### followed. We went through all prayers of rejection, fear, generational curses, My parents were involved in the occult, every forgiveness, confession prayer that was applicable was prayed, all under supervision of a pastor/counselor.

I think we are in what some people call a loooong year. Or due to the strain we both are stressed numb. It feels like the Holy Spirit is miles away, and we are like a ship without a rudder in a gale force wind. Like David called out to the Lord when he was in stress, asking the Lord not to take His Spirit away from him.

Something struck me now as I am writing, lately (last 2 days) I only have songs of praise in my head, but no words or verses from the Bible.

I also got up 7 consecutive days at 3am and prayed to the Lord.

Many Thanks for your prayers.
