Whosoever Shall Call Upon the Name of the Lord

During the first semester of my freshmen year at college my Mom's second oldest brother, who was on a transplant list for a liver, became terminally ill. He was given a week to live by the doctors.

Upon learning of my Uncle’s condition, my Mom called my Dad to inform him of the situation, and he ministered to her from Joel 2:32 "...Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be delivered...". During his final moments when we were talking to him for the last time, we shared with my Uncle that if he would call on the name of the Lord he would be saved. Shortly thereafter, he went to be with the Lord. My Mom and I were in the room when he officially passed and there was great oppression due to my relatives and the Catholic tradition that they were operating in. I could barely utter any words and the only prayer that I could pray was from Joel 2:32. After he passed both my Mom and I had a peace in our heart that he had gone to be with the Lord.

In June of the following year, my oldest cousin became terminally ill and was hospitalized. My cousin came from a home, which at one time or another had practiced every religion from Catholicism to Buddhism to the reading of the satanic bible. As result of the curses of his parent’s witchcrafts, he was a homosexual and died from AIDS. By the time we were notified that he was sick, he had been in a hospital in a vegetative state for some time. His hospital room was filled with holistic pieces of garbage and witchcrafts that his mother had placed there. The only reason that we were notified is that his mother believed that he would hear my Mom. My mom flew to California to see him while I stayed behind in Texas visiting my Dad. The only thing that we had to pray was Joel 2:32 and that the Lord’s will be done. When my Mom arrived to see him, she shared with him Joel 2:32, even though he was in a vegetative state I believe that his spirit had not yet left his body and he heard this. The next day, I was at a worship service at Water of Life in Plano and during the worship God said to me "I have your family" Instantly I new that this meant not only my uncle, but also my cousin. My cousin had not been taken off of life support at this time, but I knew that he was no longer in that body and that he had gone home. My heart was broken on the spot and I began weeping. I was overcome by the mercy and the grace of God and that with one simple prayer that God would take these men to Heaven. Two or three days later the life support was removed and he was pronounced dead.

In 2002 we lost another one of my Mom's brothers, and I believe that he is with the Lord. I know that the early deaths of my two uncles and my cousins a direct result of curses of the law and the Jezebel spirit. Not surprisingly all of the female children in my Mom's family are alive. I am working through a testimony on this that I will post shortly.

Numbers 23:19 says "God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken and not make it good?" When you call upon the name of the Lord according to his word you will be delivered.
