We visited some wonderful places this week, church, and I preached the Word of God in the Brestovitsa village, Plovdiv region and the Belasitsa village, Petritch region. We were in Brestovitsa this Wednesday, the 15th of January, 2014, where I preached the Word of God to more than 130 people. Many people were touched by God’s holiness and were released by the Holy Spirit. The pastor of the Church was provoked by God to search for Him in a new and dynamic way in his ministry. Many people’s spirits, souls and physical bodies were cured. The love of the brothers and sisters there wasn’t letting us leave and we truly had some wonderful moments. May God continue to use those people for His kingdom and lead them in the path of His righteousness. Afterwards we travelled to the Belasitsa village, where we spent two days. I preached in the church in the Rupi village and God baptized new people in the Holy Spirit. God’s love spread in that place and in all the hearts of those people and there was great joy. Many people testified that they even physically felt God’s presence like never before. People were released from demons, diseases, and we believed that we will see supernatural miracles. And so we did see them – a woman, that was healed by God from intestinal cancer testified, that for a few days after the prayer she no longer was in pain when she ate. After the doctors agreed, she cannot possibly live long because of the cancer; God healed her and removed all the metastases from her body. The only thing left was the pain when she was eating, because most of her intestines were removed.  We believe today, that a miracle will happen and she will be completely cured. We prayed for a woman that took part in the lies and false prophecies of a woman, known as the Petritch oracle Vanga. Today she is possessed by the same demons, which often leads to her being treated in the psychiatry. After I led her in prayer to repent and disavow satan’s deeds, she started to confess to sins, that she did from not knowing the truth. She truly repented for her sins and is now in the kingdom of God and in His light. She is saved. A man was saved from a demon of alcohol and visibly fully changed in the name of Jesus. We give all the glory to God and thank Him that he made us part of that great act. Together with Sister Sonya we made an important tour in the Petritch area and we prayed and prophesized against the idols, ашери and demonic influences. We started from tsar Samuil’s fortress, which is close to the Belasitsa village. What we saw there: it is a historical fact, that tsar Samuil dies on the 6th of October 1014, probably from heart attack after seeing his soldiers, who were blinded after the battle near Belasitsa. The demon of blindness and death doesn’t leave that territory though, and is still there even in the year of 1923, when Vanga’s father moves to his village of birth Novo selo. It is there, where Vanga loses her sight in a sudden storm, when she is lifted up by a powerful wind. After a long search she is later found in a field, covered by rocks and dirt. Many people even today believe that what happened to this woman was from God, so she could help people. What I believe is that this demon of blindness, death and lies still manages to take whole generations of Bulgarians, Macedonians and Russians captive in a new tragic chain of damnation even today. What we saw at the place of worship is that many young people go there every day to offer their sacrifice to demons without even realizing it. We managed to talk to some of them and they were truly surprised to hear, that Jesus is the living God and Vanga is not His prophet. We tied the demon of occultism and slavery, demon of blindness and death for the Bulgarian people, who were lied to for so long and we expect a change for the better in the spiritual world.  Sonya’s wonderful family hosted this trip and I can testify with the same words that I started my message today; sister, you are doing a good and faithful job for God and we testify of your love to the church.
