The White Spirit at the gate
 |
| One of many baptisms in Maitum |
While our host calls the team prays fervently for the will of God alone “If it’s your will Lord please open the door and give us favour, but we are surrendered to you Lord, we are ok if its closed, it means you’d like us to be somewhere else”. However, we all felt the place we were praying about was the place we should be. Within minutes we have the go ahead and we are making the fifteen minute journey back into the main town of Maitum. This school happens to be right at the edge of town and we are going to meet the principle.
As we drove through the gate of the school for the first time one of the team, Jam (short for Jamella) a sister with one of the keenest spiritual insights I’ve ever come across said "There is a white spirit sanding there beside that tree. The rest of us never saw a thing other than notice that directly behind the tree Jam referred to was the school fence which backed up onto the town graveyard. Without doubt a sinister pall hung over that place. Perhaps that’s why we were sent here?
On meeting the Principle, we learnt that she was a very committed Christian herself and was pleased to welcome us to her school granting full permission to address all 1,000+ students year by year. She remarked that it was strange that we should come at this time as only the week before 4 students, all female and in separate incidents had collapsed under the influence of overwhelming demon power and had to be restrained by some of their seriously alarmed fellow students that happened to be around them at the time.
The principle told how she had been called urgently to each incident by traumatised witnesses and had herself rebuked, bound and commanded the demons to leave which they eventually did. But not without leaving a deep and troubling impression with her that something was seriously wrong in her school and among her students – but what?. She went on “What is further concerning is that although all these incidents are separate and these girls are not in any way connected, they all reported seeing a White Spirit during their episode of trance like state and uncontrollable thrashing about”. Proving, yet again that Jams discernment had been accurate. Which information provided us as a crowd of complete unknowns to this community and to this responsible woman with an immediate high credibility rating as several of the team concurred in unrehearsed unison that we knew about the white spirit when we drove in the gates. Now it seemed to the principle we really had been sent. We began right away with an announcement made over the intercom for all second year students to gather at the media room. And so the revival at the school began. To be cont’d…
