I… can’t… breathe! 

That’s all I could think as huge hands tightened around my neck and an invisible weight pressed me into the bed, squeezing the very life out of me.

I couldn’t move!

The attack began in my sleep but continued even while I emerged into full consciousness. I could feel the huge hands around my neck but I couldn’t touch them. I grabbed for them and touched… Nothing… Thin air!

Yet they closed even tighter!

My eyes popped opened and stared directly into his! Pure evil!

That’s the best way to describe them! Red, glowing blood-slits in a faceless form - a vague outline of a man. No features, just a blackness that was darker than the darkness around. It was a supernatural darkness with personality, a malevolent force that manifested itself as a being totally without light.

Terror stampeded through my mortal soul!

This was 23 years ago on a Wednesday morning about 2:00 AM. I will never forget that experience! I had gone to bed just before 1:30 AM after consuming some KFC chicken & fries. I was working as a Security Guard with 'BRINKS SECURITY’ and had just finished the 4PM to 12 Midnight shift at a KFC outlet, although back then they hadn’t shrunk the name as yet.

For years I had been searching for something, I didn’t know exactly what! But I knew that when I found it I would recognize it. I studied Esoteric Astrology for some years, read Linda Goodman, Jean Dixon and Edgar Cayce among others.

I consumed books by Tuesday Lobsang Rampa, a renown Tibetan Priest who authored about 20 books on the occult the most famous being "The Third Eye". I browsed the writings of Paul Twichell, a former living Eck-Master. And studied a book or two of ‘The Rosicrucian Order.’ I even owned a copy of ‘The Bhagavad Gita’ (pronounced Bag-Wah Ghee-Tah), which I read cover to cover. For those who don’t know, The Bhagavad Gita is a Hindu holy book second only to ‘The Vedas.’ I was a seeker after Truth… or so I thought of myself!

At the time of this attack I was a devout member of a Pseudo-Christian religion and attended church every Sunday Bible in hand. I thought I was so holy that I would start sprouting wings and a halo any minute. But as I fought with this demon none of my knowledge of The Occult came to my rescue. As I lay on that bed with my head full of information from hundreds of so-called spiritual books I was as helpless against this Demonic Terminator as a fly in a hurricane! I was literally losing my life and could do NOTHING!

But after struggling for a while something did begin to take shape in my mind. It was something my spiritual leader at that time had shared with me. “The only true power,” He said, “is in the NAME OF JESUS!” “We have many religious practices but if you’re ever in trouble call on HIS NAME!”

So as I battled this Satanic Assassin I somehow remembered this advice... and I called!

Inside I was screaming JEEEZZZUSS!!!!! But in actuality because my air supply was cut off the sound barely escaped my lips as a whisper… Jesus.

But it was enough!

At the sound of the most powerful name in the universe I felt the hands release me and I saw the demonic spirit retreating and fading into the background. I was loosed!!!

MY GOD!!!

I BREATHED DEEP… LONG… HARD BREATHS!

I WAS FREE!!! THANK GOD! I WAS FREE!!!

I would like to say that I was immediately and stunningly converted to the Lord Jesus Christ but it actually took two more years of very interesting experiences before I completely converted to Bible Christianity and experienced being Born Again!

But thank God eventually I was converted from occultism and false religions to the living CHRIST! I served in a small Holy Ghost filled, fire-baptized church for seven years before The Lord called me to my own ministry. I went through a mighty deliverance process, which took years of reconditioning my mind to flow in the liberty and accuracy of the Holy Ghost!

The Holy Spirit led me on an educational adventure, I consumed the bible cover to cover the very first year I was saved and again the first year I entered into full-time ministry.

(As a matter of fact I've just started another cover-to-cover reading experience, it’s been a long time)

I’ve been home-schooled in ministry by the Holy Ghost!

He saturated me in the teachings of Dr. Kenneth E. Hagin (now home with the Lord), whose many books I devoured and Dr. Myles Munroe, a truly gifted teacher and communicator. He also exposed me to the teachings of Dr. Bill Hammond, Win Worley, Dr. Edwin Louis Cole, Joyce Meyer, Kenneth Copeland and Dr. John C. Maxwell among many others.

In my lifetime I’ve read or listened to on Audio Cassette over a thousand books on a wide variety of topics, some specific books that have impacted my life are:

NOTE: I've probably read every book ever written by Dr. Kenneth E. Hagin. From the beginning of my Christian life, God led me to his teachings and along with intensive Bible study and fasting they have helped form the foundation of my understanding of the Word of God! I do not agree with everything he has taught, but he has been instrumental in developing my spiritual understanding.

I see the Internet (Websites, Ebooks, Emails, Blogs) and the Entertainment Industry (Movies, Music, Games) as two very powerful mediums for reaching this generation for Christ!

The progressive Digitalization of our society along with the evolution of the Information Super-Highway has tremendously impacted the communication industry and will revolutionize our Evangelism and Discipleship Programs if we maximize their use.

I believe we need to not only participate in but dominate the use of Digital Communication and The Internet in spreading The Word of God!
