In 2005, I began to get attacks from supernatural forces that I could not fathom. At first I was quiet, confused and perplexed but very prayerful about the situation. At that time I was an ‘O' Level student of Kiira College Butiiki, Jinja. The situation erupted until I was forced to come back home and tell my mother what was happening.
Mom took me for deliverance for a month. The attacks intensified. It was like as though the prayers had added salt to injury. Mom considered keeping me home for a whole year.
Specific Incidences that happened:
-
On one night, while I was sleeping, I felt a strong evil force descend upon me with intentions of taking my life and as I struggled in prayers, I felt the anointing of God taking full control of all my body actions and every word that came out of my mouth. Then I heard the voice of God, talk about things that were yet to come and those that had come to pass. For instance, my young sister would get 25 points in her ‘A’ Levels. By then mys sister was in Senior Two. But to my greatest miracle, last year, 2009, my sister Gloria got 25 points and was the best in her school. God also said that my father would be promoted and my mother would get a high prophetic anointing with many doors open to her all of which have come to pass. My father has had three quick promotions since then, and indeed my mother has a high anointing in the Prophetic and Intercession. My having a priestly higher anointing than my mother is yet to come to pass.
-
On another incident, still at night, I just felt the whole room was flooded with demons, speaking, talking and calling me through the wall and from all angles of my room. I screamed and Mom came but I did not recognise her, so she began to pray until I gained my senses. After I regained consciousness, I got up fully controlled by the holy spirit and walked to my sister's room, from where I saw Angels surrounding the house. Everyone in the house woke up and we moved to the sitting room from where I saw Jesus covered in glory. It was then that I realised that nobody really has a clear picture of what He looks like. All those paintings of Jesus are a far lesser description of what I saw. It was in this state that I realised that the programmes on T.V were corrupting the minds of the youth through secular music, movies, shows etc. So I destroyed our television in that Holy anger. After a while, in that state, it was like as though, Jesus Christ had taken over my body because from my sisters point of view, my voice was unusually elevated and deep, then my hands were raised involuntarily like the way Jesus was on the cross, and then He left. I fell limp to the ground and my head hit the wall. My head got a swelling but by morning after a very long nap, I woke up without any sign of injury.
-
Several other attacks emerged in a stronger way and there was need for more and more serious prayer but I had confidence that these powers would not destroy me or kill me because of prayer. My life changed and I actually dropped a number of my friends on going back to school. I decided to fast all through my examination period. I remember Mom and Dad came to visit me at school and to convince me to stop fasting during exams but I still refused to break my fast but I gained so much anointing that the powers could not attack me all through that time and even though I had lost a lot of time, I passed to join ‘A' Level.
-
It was in those times that one day I was praying and I saw John Baptist, I was full of joy and meditating on a scripture in Matthew that says that “I will show you great and amazing things.”
-
One of the worst attacks was when the powers threw me from my bedroom to the sitting room in front of the dining table. My mom was calm. She held me up but thought I had broken my limbs.
About my name Shimei, it was given to me from the Leviticus order of priests and I was dedicated by my parents to Priesthood and I have a strong feeling that it is because of this, that the enemy can never take my life and also that I have a higher calling and anointing.
God Bless You.
