What Are the Stakes?

God Markers on the Land

By: Steve Hemphill

Narrated by: Kevin Charles

Sam and I were alone in my home in the middle of a Bible study. For some reason, his anger erupted, and he came at me, wrapping his arms around me in a tight squeeze. I have never felt that kind of strength. Although he was my size, he felt superhuman. As he wrapped his arms around me and our faces were just inches apart, I said out loud, "Get back in the name of Jesus."

He let me go quickly, jerking back. Then he walked around me to the kitchen sink. He began to grab pots and pans and kitchen utensils, hurling them right at me with all his might - and I was only 10 feet away. Nothing ever hit me. Things flew by me on both sides, but I didn’t get a scratch. I picked up my cell phone and walked outside, dialing 911 for the first time in my life. As I talked to the 911 operator, I heard crash after crash inside my home. He flipped a baby grand piano by himself - it has taken about seven of us to set it up. He threw my chairs through the six large windows along the back of my home, he smashed the pictures and the television, and flipped the furniture. Glass was broken and spread everywhere - both inside and outside the house.

Words can’t describe the scene when he was done. It was like living a nightmare. Family photos smashed and torn, keepsakes and knickknacks in pieces around the room. Memories seemed to lie there among the ruins. He did over $42,000 in damage in just four minutes, and there were no drugs in his system.

What could give someone the strength to do that? His apology said that something evil took him over, and he was powerless against it.

Steve is now a target of the enemy because he discovered a little-known biblical principle that works beautifully in the fight against Satan and his forces: God’s word is still powerful. It’s all about faith. If you pray saying, “I’m going to pray, but it won’t do any good”, then don’t pray. But if you pray in faith, God acts. This is evident throughout Scripture when Jesus tells his followers, “Your faith has made you well.” Listen to this book and discover strategic ways to use prayer in combination with God’s holy word to protect you and your loved ones.

How evil spirits effect our lives

I loved the biblical principles we are to apply to be effective. We are never to lose sight that when we have cleaned our own house spiritually, we can effectively ward off spiritually attacks using God’s principles backed with scripture.

Interesting

This is a very interesting and thought provoking read. Not my normal “type” of book, but definitely made me consider things. If/when we have struggles in the future…I would consider putting stakes out.

Great Read!

Bought some of these stakes for my house, can't wait until they come in! We need to send some of these stakes to White House!

Excellent and Practical

This is such a great book on spiritual warfare that gives biblical and practical help for combating a very real yet forgotten foe.

What a great servant of God !!

Thank you for the biblical encouragement and wisdom !

I will continue to revisit and put into practice these prayers . Amen
