Demon Attacks Sleeping Woman! | Tamara Mitchell

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,120
I felt this something crawling across my bed and it was making, I woke up and I seen imprints

2
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:12,640
coming towards me and well ended up jumping on me and it lifted me up out of my bed about,

3
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:18,560
I don't know, maybe a foot in the air and it was trying to just get into me.

4
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:24,080
I'd love to hear your story of how God has brought you to where you are today. I mean, you

5
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:29,120
told me a little bit before we hit record that God brought you through deliverance and now

6
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:34,960
you're grateful for that because you're able to teach from experience and so I'm just going to

7
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:41,360
let you tell your story and I'm going to ask some questions in the process. So yeah, just tell us

8
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:49,440
how God has brought you to where you are. So I had actually, since I was younger, about six or seven

9
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:59,040
been seeing spirits and I wasn't sure how to go about telling my family that and when I told them,

10
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:04,400
of course, they just kind of shoved it off as, oh, you're just seeing things, you know, this and that.

11
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:12,480
My family was, they go to Baptist and Pentecostal churches so I was raised up in there, you know,

12
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:16,800
somewhat but- They went to Baptist and Pentecostal churches? Those are two very different-

13
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:23,200
I've had family go to Baptist and some family go to Pentecostal and I just went to both but as a kid,

14
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:28,800
you know, you don't really know what they're talking about. Like you're more there to have

15
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:35,280
fun with your friends and just, you know, kind of fellowship or whatnot. So the older that I got,

16
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:41,840
I kind of strayed away, especially in my teenage years because I was that wild child and just got

17
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:48,800
really into the streets, got around some people that were, you know, in the streets and my life just

18
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:55,360
went sideways. It went kind of wild. So I started studying new age, different things that I wasn't

19
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:59,920
supposed to be dilly-dallying in and I knew that but at the same time, you know, it's just your

20
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:09,120
environment that you're in and as I got older, one of my best friends had been murdered and at that

21
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:17,120
time, he, it was a huge political thing and if I really go into detail, you'd understand,

22
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:22,720
but it really put a toll on me, you know. So I started going downhill. I started having really

23
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:30,960
bad anxiety, depression. I lost a lot of weight. I had drinking issues and looking back on it now,

24
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,760
you know, it's actually a generational thing because I have family that are alcoholics and

25
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:42,240
I just felt at a point that when I started seeing spirits again, it really startled me because I

26
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:49,040
hadn't seen them since I was younger. So they really went into my face and what caused you to

27
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:55,040
stop seeing them? I'm not sure to be honest with you. It was like a very long period. I mean, I

28
00:02:55,040 --> 00:03:01,360
could still like feel things or sense stuff, but I didn't see them like with my own eyes, you know,

29
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:06,640
And then you started seeing them again. Yes. And then once I got into that really bad place that I

30
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:14,240
was in, it was like, I was looking at them like I am looking at you. Oh, wow. So it was very visual.

31
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:20,880
I would see dead people walking around. I really started thinking to myself, what the heck is this?

32
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:25,520
Am I a psychic? Am I a medium? You know, and that's when I really started really diving into that

33
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:32,400
type of stuff. But one incident that occurred that really jolted me was I was asleep in my bed one

34
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:40,400
night and I felt this something crawling across my bed. And it was making I woke up and I seen

35
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:46,960
imprints coming towards me will ended up jumping on me. And it lifted me up out of my bed about,

36
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:53,680
I don't know, maybe a foot in the air. And it was trying to just get into me. And all I could think

37
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:59,360
about was what my grandmother had told me about pleading the blood of Jesus. And I just started

38
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:05,840
pleading the blood of Jesus three, four times and it dropped me and I actually bounced off my bed,

39
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:11,280
hit the floor and I went running out of there. I just grabbed my purse and ran and I had some

40
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:16,560
Haitian friends that, you know, used to talk to me about spiritual stuff all the time because in

41
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:22,800
Haiti, a lot of that stuff goes on. So I called them and they directed me to a pastor who was

42
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:29,680
into a pastor that they knew and he came. He prayed over me. I got saved that day.

43
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:35,760
Literally, like it was the most extreme experience I've ever experienced when it came to,

44
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:41,120
well, one of the most extreme when it comes to demons and, you know, crawling across your bed

45
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:46,640
or trying to enter you. And it just really jolted me and said, you know, wake up because,

46
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:52,160
you know, God is real. The spiritual realm is real. I've been I was avoiding it for a long time.

47
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:56,560
I knew I could see things. I know I could sense things, but just because I was avoiding it because

48
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:04,800
of all that pain and trauma I was going through. So after that, they came, anointed my house and

49
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:09,200
just prayed over me and prophesied over me and told me that I would eventually be in the deliverance

50
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:17,520
ministry and just showed me how to read scripture, you know, kind of just start from baby steps,

51
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:22,240
you know, towards a real relationship with Christ again. And I did that. And as I was doing it,

52
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:28,080
I was able to have encounters with the Holy Spirit, with angels, with people getting healed,

53
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,960
delivered. I didn't even know what I was doing. Just started praying, just started, you know,

54
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:39,840
going by what the Holy Spirit was telling me to do and not even knowing, you know, just knowing

55
00:05:39,840 --> 00:05:44,320
that this is what God has me doing and I'm going to continue to keep walking in it no matter what

56
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:52,080
my walk is. Right. So do you basically just had like, I love how you said you had baby steps in

57
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:58,000
this. And so because you're doing baby steps, you just believed what the word said. And so you had

58
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:03,920
that faith to operate because this is what the word says, I can do this. And you were seeing these

59
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:10,240
things happen. You didn't rationalize your way into things not happening. You were actually seeing it

60
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:15,360
happen because you had that faith. I want to talk about some of the encounters that you've had,

61
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:21,280
because you said that you've, you've seen angels, you've had encounters. Tell me about some of these

62
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:29,360
things and what it has, how it's steered your life. Well, I will tell you one particular time

63
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:37,760
when this was right when I was going through the pastors praying over me and transitioning my

64
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:44,400
lifestyle. And I was in my room, it was a small apartment about, I think I had two bedrooms, it

65
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:50,400
was me and my son. And I had fell asleep was a deep sleep because I hadn't been sleeping at all

66
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:56,720
because these demons would mess with me. Whenever I would sleep, like in my dreams, they would even

67
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,960
touch me like they would pull my sheets off my bed, they would do all kinds of things. So I

68
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:07,360
wasn't having sleep at all. And I was actually scared to go to sleep because I didn't want to

69
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:12,320
go through whatever it was that they were going to do. And this particular night I fell asleep and I

70
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:20,960
heard my door creak open. And it really scared me. And I looked up and it was a really bright, white,

71
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:29,920
light, like super bright. And it pushed the door open. And at that moment, I wasn't scared. It was

72
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:37,360
almost like a very peaceful feeling. And it was an angel and it started coming towards me. And

73
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:44,080
people always ask me, was it a man? Was it a woman? I felt like it was a woman, but I couldn't really

74
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:52,400
see because it was so bright. So you could see a silhouette of it. But you could not determine

75
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:58,320
if it really was a woman or a man. But however, I did feel like it was a woman. She sat at the

76
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:05,200
bottom of my bed and she said, come here, my child. The Lord sent me to you so that you could get

77
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:13,040
sleep. And I did. I went over to her and I put my head on her lap and I just remember her stroking

78
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:22,480
my head. And I remember God's audible voice. This is the first time I have ever heard him. And he

79
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:30,000
said, my child, I have big plans for you. Get rest. And I fell asleep and I literally slept,

80
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:39,200
I believe it was 14 hours and I woke up and I felt so rejuvenated. I felt so refreshed, so renewed.

81
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:44,240
And I just remember crying, you know, and I was just crying and crying and crying. I'm almost

82
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:53,920
getting emotional thinking about it because it was so real. And I knew at that moment that God had a

83
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:58,880
plan for me. So from that moment on, I started reading scripture, I started getting really deep

84
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:07,600
into it and understanding what my role was as far as deliverance goes and praying over people for

85
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:14,400
healing. Because for a long time, I was very focused on healing. I loved praying for people.

86
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,640
When people would come through the door, God would show me they had cancer or they had this or they

87
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:24,320
had that. And I would just say, I know this is very awkward, but can I pray for you? And there's been

88
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:28,880
many people that, you know, once we start praying and stuff, the Holy Spirit just moves and heals

89
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:36,160
them right there. Wow. So you've, you've definitely been on a journey with deliverance. And so from

90
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:42,720
the first time that you started doing this until now, what would you say is the biggest change or

91
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:52,240
the biggest growth, I guess, in yourself in this process? The biggest growth I would have to say

92
00:09:55,760 --> 00:10:05,840
is my compassion. And I'm a very cutthroat person. I'm very black and white. I don't do gray in

93
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:13,760
between. So when I speak to people, sometimes it'll come off like I'm being rude, you know,

94
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:19,040
and I'm not being rude. I'm just being very straightforward because I don't want to sugarcoat.

95
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:24,800
I don't want to, you know, to go through these storylines with you. And then, you know, you're,

96
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,880
you're still crying and you're still going through all these things. I just like to be like direct.

97
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:38,560
So I've had to really find a place within myself to change the way that I speak to people and that I

98
00:10:38,560 --> 00:10:44,720
come with them more with compassion instead of just being very, very direct. So I would say that

99
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:50,560
was one of my huge weaknesses that I had. And so it's kind of a blessing and a curse because,

100
00:10:50,560 --> 00:10:54,960
you know, some people you do need to be direct with and there's some people that you need to

101
00:10:54,960 --> 00:11:03,280
have that compassion for. And you need to know, you need to have the discernment for which one

102
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:08,880
to do which with. And that's something that comes from experience. And you've now surrounded

103
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:15,920
yourself with people that you're one of the hub leaders for Pastor Greg Locke, who we love here

104
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:26,160
at Charisma. Just briefly, could you tell us about about that? Yes. So again, I went to work at a

105
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:32,720
deliverance conference in Corpus Christi. It was the Warriors, was it the Warriors of Deliverance?

106
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:39,920
I think that's what it's called. But it had Marcus Rogers, Daniel Adams, John Ramirez, Greg Locke,

107
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:44,560
David Diga Hernandez. It had a whole bunch of people on the panel. And I told my husband,

108
00:11:44,560 --> 00:11:50,640
I said, you know what, I'm going, I'm going, like, I'm going to go work it. So I called and

109
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:56,400
asked Mr. Paul Garza if I could work it. And he said, yes. So I went there. And that was really

110
00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:02,000
the first time I met Greg Locke. And I have a pastor friend here in Pensacola, Florida,

111
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:08,240
his name is Butch Callahan with Marcus Point Church Baptist Church. And I'm, he had told me

112
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:17,200
that Greg used to learn underneath them. And he, Greg was actually friends with his son. So he had

113
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:21,520
told me that information before I had went to the conference. So it was something kind of like,

114
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,280
you know, a starter point where I could talk to Greg in the back and just say, hey, you know,

115
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:31,120
I know Butch Callahan, do you know him? You know, that kind of thing. So we ended up striking up a

116
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:38,240
conversation and it went really well. And when I left, I really went home, I prayed about everything.

117
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:44,640
I said, you know what, I want to go visit his church. So I went up to Tennessee to his church

118
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:49,680
and I asked them if I could work on deliverance conference up there. The girl said, yeah. So I

119
00:12:49,680 --> 00:12:54,640
came up there. By the time I got there, they had enough people to work it. So she's just like,

120
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,640
kind of stay around if something happens where you can have help out, just help out. So that's what I

121
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:06,800
did. And in the process of all of that, I really felt on my heart when the hub leader got up to

122
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:13,120
speak about the hub groups and, you know, having different places all over the nation, you know,

123
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:18,320
just to have Greg lock in your living room, to be able to share, you know, that fellowship time with

124
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:24,560
somebody and let him pastor. And then we could do baptisms, deliverance, healing sessions, whatever

125
00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:32,160
we needed to do at our own home and grow and help grow the deliverance ministry really touched me

126
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:37,200
because I was like, okay, maybe this is where I need to be because I love his fiery spirit.

127
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:45,200
I love everything about him. He's, he's a lot like me, you know, so I was like, let me just do this.

128
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:53,040
So that's how I got a part of the hub leadership and with them and stuff. So I enjoy it. I love it.

129
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:59,120
It's something that it's just kind of, everything's aligning perfectly. If you know what I mean,

130
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:27,280
if you know what I mean, cause I already have my youth group, so youth group hub leadership the same night. It's, it's fun.
