It was when I was about 33 weeks pregnant. On February 3rd, my stomach hurt since early morning, but without recognizing it as labor, I visited the hospital I usually went to for a routine checkup. The test results showed my blood pressure had risen to 163?170. Due to preeclampsia, I was advised to go to a larger hospital. ...
Nine years of torment had been caused by idol worshipping.
After my husband passed away about 10 years ago, I was terrified every night at home in which I had lived for more than 40 years. Demons would appear in my dreams, try to kill me, and I could not drive away the fear. So before the sunset every day, I locked all the doors and did not answer even when my neighbors came over with delicious food. I even had dreams in which there were so many snakes in my room that I would just put them away in a container. One day, my eldest daughter Deaconess Song-Lim Yang, who had always been praying for me, came down to Eumseong County in North Chungcheong Province with 2 senior deaconesses all the way from Seoul. "At our church, people on whom even the doctors give up are healed. Demons are driven away and all sorts of miracles take place. Be sure to come!" I came to Seoul a few days later and attended a Daniel Prayer Meeting, during which I felt it was here where all my troubles and problems in life could be resolved. However, even after moving to Seoul, I was continuously tormented. I would lie in bed in the afternoons and feel as though demons were pulling me from underneath the bed. Unless I placed the handkerchief on which the Senior Pastor had prayed (Acts 19:11-12), I could not stay asleep for even 10 minutes. Then one day, I asked myself whether this torment could have been caused by my rampant idol worshipping in the past. Prior to accepting the Lord, my husband and I had placed charms around the house while my husband acted as a fortuneteller and wrote out charms to our neighbors. Remembering those days, I repented, offered to God a peace offering, and received the Senior Pastor's prayer. After that, the demons have been driven away and the pressing pain in my shoulders has also disappeared. I can sleep today peacefully and am filled with an earnest hope for heaven!
