Something can feel “spiritual” and still be deadly practical: sleepless nights, constant fear, a relationship you cannot leave, and a sense that your own will is slipping. We open with a hard look at witchcraft and Wicca, including the popular idea of “safe” or “white” magic, and why we believe it never stays contained. When you invite darkness in, it doesn’t always wait for another ritual to show up, and the cost rarely stays small.

Nights of Despair. Will it ever end?

Wicca And The Hidden Cost

SPEAKER_01

Paranormal Activity Series. Hi there, may the God of the Bible bless your life. Paranormal activity. We have this series, Darkness to Light. And today we are going to watch the story of Alana. Somebody did witchcraft against her. We have her story. There was witchcraft hidden underneath my mattress. You are going to see what happened to her. She had this toxic relationship and she did not understand why she could not get rid of that abusive toxic relationship. She was held by that witchcraft. But I want to show to you right away what witchcraft like uh wicca is all about. It's another type of witchcraft.

SPEAKER_02

Many people practice witchcraft thinking there is a safe side. Light magic, white magic, harmless rituals. The source is the same for all witchcraft. And when you draw from it, the bill always comes due and it's never small. Wicca and similar practices are rooted in the nature elements, balance, and harmless intention. But over time, witchcraft doesn't stay separate from your life. It entangles itself in it. What begins as curiosity becomes dependence. Many experience blackouts, sleepless nights, paranormal encounters that don't wait for rituals to be performed. Unexplained fear. After stopping the practice, it doesn't stop following. Because spirits that are invited do not leave politely.

Alana’s Story Of Control

SPEAKER_01

And you see that the last state of a person becomes worse than the first. Maybe one day you went to which doctors to do like these things I have in the list. Black magic, white magic, voodoo. Last week we have posted evil eye, and today we are talking about weekend. This is what they did against Alana. And her life became miserable. You are going to watch her story just right now. You need to be free just as she also broke free.

The Discovery Under The Mattress

SPEAKER_00

Hi, my name is Alana. I have been or was in an abusive relationship for five to six, almost six years. And um, my partner at the time was verbally abusive. He was very abusive. He used to tell me, you know, things like you're stupid, you say stuff that doesn't make any sense, breaks your mind, you're dumb, you know, stuff like that. Um, he would curse me and want to have full control. He was a very attractive guy, tall, dark, handsome, you know, had a lot of friends, female and male friends alike. And he was cheating, constantly cheating, telling lies, abusive, you know, verbally. And I found myself giving him my money, like he would ask for a loan, but I would never get it back. I was stressed out, I started losing a lot of weight, I would smoke a lot but not eat, and I had stopped working for a few months well, and I depleted all of my savings um because I had my bills to pay, and he wasn't helping in that aspect. Eventually, I decided to rearrange my room, turn around the furniture, you know, clean up, do some spring cleaning. And when I moved my bed and I had to lift the mattress up to move the bed, um I found one of his underwears under my mattress on the side of the pillow that I not pillow, but mattress that I sleep on most regularly. So I looked at it and I asked my cousin, why is this hair? She looked at me, I looked at her, and she's like, because I think that's witchcraft. My blood ran cold. I sat there and I broke down. I said, Oh my god, I think that is why I was unable to walk out of the relationship. That's why I was able, wasn't able to leave him to end it, and I kept letting him back into my life. She said, Cuz that is not you, because you're not the type of woman to tolerate this, and it seems like you know, you have lower self-esteem, and that is not the Alana that I know. And the Holy Spirit spoke to me. The Holy Spirit said, Go to church, it's Friday, it's deliverance. He said, So we're going to pray for curses, we're going to pray for anybody who has, you know, witchcraft done on their lives, and I felt like a whole weight was lifted off of me. It didn't end there because I kept coming back. I kept coming to the church, I kept coming every Friday, and I prayed to God to deliver me from my addiction and marijuana. Because, as far as I could remember, since I was 19 years old, when I graduated high school, I started smoking marijuana, and I smoked marijuana constantly for almost 30 years. And that Friday, it was the seventh Friday actually. After deliverance that night, I went home. All the marijuana that I had, I flushed down the toilet, I got rid of the wrapping paper, the lighter, everything. And that was it. It's been almost five years now since I'm clean. I haven't smoked. I don't get the urge. Actually, when I pass by people who are smelling, I actually feel nauseous and want to throw up. Um, the night of that deliverance, I told the guy, that's it. That's the end of it. I packed up the little stuff that he had at my home and I gave it back to him. He was very angry. He was girls and carrying on. And I told him he had to leave. I feel so good mentally, physically, spiritually. I try my best to live a life that's pleasing to God. I have such a peace now. I have such a very like peaceful life. No matter what happens, I continue. I've been coming to church. My son is a member of the church also. We both got baptized, and my life has really made a big 360. Like, and what I want most of all is for my name and my son's name to be written in the book of life. Trust me, the the peace is is overwhelming. Sometimes I find myself in prayer and and I'm crying. And I'm not crying because I'm sad, but because I'm so happy that God chose me and I chose to walk this path.

Deliverance And A New Life

Prison Letters And How To Write

SPEAKER_01

Well, she's now crying for happiness, for peace, because Alana now has the peace of God upon her life. So types of witchcraft you need to be set free. By the way, I have here this that shows what people do. It's like the uh ritual. She found the underwear, under the matrix, and that to underware was posted there as a form of witchcraft to destroy her life. That's why people have this destroyed, um love life, family, and so on. Well, I'm going to show to you right now a letter that I receive from Prisa. UBB stands for, let me have it over here. Universal Beyond Bars. It's a prison ministry of the Universal Church. Those who are watching me in prison, you know it. Those who are on the outside, you need to learn more about UBB. Dispersing Prisa, send me this letter, and I have Melina, one of our volunteers of the UBB, to read this letter.

Bob’s Wicca Struggle And Pain

SPEAKER_07

Hello there, welcome to Letters of Transformation. From cells across the nation, Bishop Beera Joshua receives letters, letters with deep questions, personal testimonies, and real concerns that we don't hear day to day. Bishop Beera Joshua reads every single letter, just like this. If you'd like to write a letter to him, you can also write a physical letter to 7075 Southwest Freeway, Houston, Texas, 77074. From there, you can be added to his e-messages. So we have a letter today here. And this version actually does not have a tablet because not every place has a tablet for the inmates to use. So if you write this letter, write it in there the details, if you want him to add you to the e-messages or if you need a physical letter. Today's a very serious question. It's a testimony and question. The testimony is how important these episodes are in pando and how it helps people across the nation. So we're going to change this person's name to Bob. So let's hear what Bob has to say to Bishop. Says here, dear Bishop, my name is Bob. I've seen your videos on Pando, and the water really works. Thank you. But I need help with a couple things. I used to follow a pagan religion called Wicca. It involves witchcraft, and now I'm trying to give my life to God. I keep going back and forth between the two, and I need help staying with God. I'm 19 years old. I've lost my mother, my grandmother, my father, my aunt, my uncle, my granddad, and I've even lost contact with my sister. I've been locked up since the age of 14. I have severe anger issues that are getting just worse. I have an obsession with cutting my arms with razor blades just to watch the blood pour out. And I don't know what to do. But when those are those are just a few of my issues, please be a listening ear for me and write back to me. I don't have a tablet. Thank you in advance. So these are real issues that not only Bob is going through, but many others are struggling. So this is a great question. So Vic Javier Joshua can answer these serious questions. So don't hold back. Share your concerns, share your testimonies, and we'll see you next time.
