The Radio Mensajero team had an opportunity to meet and encourage this family who had several troubles. This was actually not a planned visit, but as the team was trying to connect with their contact, they pulled over to the side of the road, in front of a random house. After a few moments of trying to call the contact person via cell phone, a man from the house approached the car, and told the team that he had had a dream the previous night, that the Radio Mensajero van would show up at his house, and that he was to guide the radio team to a lady's place that lived about 2 km away, who urgently needed prayer. When the team got to this lady's house, it became very apparent why this family needed prayer: 5 months earlier, the lady was in a motorcycle accident, in which her husband had died. Many motorcycles here have no working tail light, and that seems to have been the cause for this accident as well. The couple had two kids, and this 31-year-old woman was bedridden for many months, due to a spinal injury. This was extra difficult since she also had a handicapped brother.
The team shared words of encouragement and prayed for the lady and her family. After the prayer, this lady's mother broke down into tears, and explained that while they were praying, she was convicted in her spirit that all these troubles that the family is having is due to her meddling with witchcraft like Tarot cards. She had come to believe that there was a curse on her household, due to her occult rituals and "santeria". The team was amazed to see the work of the Holy Spirit in this lady's heart. We also continue to pray for God to help and heal this family.
As Christians we know that our God forbids us from engaging in such practices. These practices are demonic and harmful to us.
"10 Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, 11 or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead."
"6 You, Lord, have abandoned your people,
the descendants of Jacob.
They are full of superstitions from the East;
they practice divination like the Philistines
and embrace pagan customs."
