Testimony about the Camp - February 2023

This camp was so powerful, and the presence of the Holy Spirit was so present that no one was praying for me when I realized I was getting deliverance. I wasn’t sure who was talking or what they were speaking about at that point because I was distracted by the internet issues I was having. I got bumped off the meeting many times. I just sat feeling flustered and like I wanted to break my fast, but I kept declaring the words from 1 Corinthians 9:27, “…I discipline my body and keep it under control.” That’s when my head started feeling funny and I knew I needed to get my plastic bag and napkins ready. For more than an hour, I was getting deliverance. I was repenting, thanking God, commanding, and declaring all through it.

Experience Earlier that Day (before deliverance)

I was sitting on my bed praying and worshipping. This was in between the Fast Camp sessions where we got a break to rest, pray and meditate on what was taught from the Word of God. In that moment, I felt like someone sat on my bed right next to me, on my left side. My eyes were closed, and I was stunned at the force I felt on the bed. It felt like someone plopped themselves right beside me. I opened my eyes and saw nothing. Everything was in place. I closed my eyes again and knew it was either the Lord or one of His angels. I felt strong and encouraged.  

Dear Ministers,

Valley of Decision Mission, Fact Camp Nov 2022, has impacted my life both physically and spiritually. The pre-fast was a challenge because i was indulging in so many types of food and sin so I knew i was in for a ride.

I thought that the pre-fast would make the actually fast easier but it was still a hard. Then God reminded me of the verse from 2 Cor "I will beat my body and make it my slave...." I had been a slave to food and sin and now it was time for me to be a slave under the obedience of God.

From this camp i have been awakened to things i had closed my spiritual eyes to and God wanted me to see it. After Sister Gray's first message she prayed for our homes that was a prayer that i needed to cast out things from my home that were not of God. The following day she spoke about iniquity we inherit and that prayer made such an impact i began casting things out of me that i knew i had tendencies of doing that were apart of my family line. I even began covering my daughter in prayer that she will not inherit the same baggage.

During the message about repentance and the prayer specifically i felt this strong emotion of sadness. All the things i have done has grieved the heart of God and the speaker was hitting every note. God wanted me to hear that its not just feeling sorry for what i have done but an actual surrender and walking away from repeating the same thing. She said "Repentance is a gift given to us to walk with Christ."

Friday i got into this argument with my sister trying to defend myself and Saturday morning I was reminded that it was spiritual warfare. Even during camp i was being attacked.

Saturday was especially hard because i started to feel sick. I asked Major Mark for advice since she had invited me to join. She was advised to eat a piece of fruit and for some reason after that i felt even worst. I wanted to quit. I realized this was an attack to both my mind and body but i kept attending meetings.

The message on fear was on point because that was one of my prayer points. I have allowed fear to keep me back from pursuing my musical career and other business ventures for so long. I was reminded that God has not given me a spirit of fear but of love, power and a sound mind. I began declaring it as the speaker said "I choose the fear of the Lord." I want the Holy Spirit to guide me on this journey of life.

From the onset, this camp has revealed the weaknesses in me that i need to work on with the help of the Holy Spirit. I came with a list of prayer request when God wanted me to fix other things and He confirmed in my spirit and i believe by faith that He will answer the other things on my list. I will continue to trust God in this process. I have been greatly encouraged.
