God has mandated me to guide His people along their journey out of Egypt and empower His people to awaken out of their sleeping state; He has also equipped me to help His people transform into their true authentic self. God wants your thoughts, words, and actions to align with who he created you to be before you were in your mother’s womb. Its time to birth out purpose.

In 2000 when I began my journey of real intimacy with God, I was ready to let go and die to who life had made me and resurrect into who God had created me to be. The more I connected to God and opened my heart to change, the person I once knew was fading fast. Though I grew up in the church and learned of God, I quickly discovered I didn’t have an intimate relationship with Him; I didn’t know Him.

The more I died to self, sought God’s will, and obeyed Him, the greater I grew spiritually, I knew my life would never be the same again. I began to hear His voice clearer. I reconciled with my Abba, Yah, and the Holy Spirit had consumed my life. By 2005 I had indeed become an “Armed Woman of Power,” my spiritual intelligence was maturing, and all I wanted was Jesus. God’s calling for my life was in full effect; I was standing firm on God’s Word, and no longer was a victim of the enemy. I refused to follow in the footsteps of Eve. I had victory over mind manipulation and deceitful tactics of the enemy.

During this time, God equipped our ministry to bring ourselves and other believers through deliverance and help them pull down spiritual strongholds that have kept them bound to Satan—teaching them how to put on their spiritual armor so God could push them to their purpose. We were empowering others while being empowered.

At the beginning of 2007, God informed me that it was time for me to transition from South Florida to Atlanta, Georgia. I knew it would be a big transition, but I never knew this move was going to challenge everything God had placed in me. Once I settled into Georgia, I began to feel the demonic attack of depression. I instantly fought back. I fasted and prayed for 40 days, and I was indeed free from depression. Though depression left, the enemy harassed me with other demonic forces attempting to stop me from completing God’s assignment for ten years. By 2017 the heaviness of ministry began to take a toll on me; the enemy tried to use my closest relationships to tear me down.

While I was on this spiritual battlefield, the slithering serpentine spirits had infiltrated. I began to be directly attacked by the python spirit. The python spirit is a coiling spirit that works to squeeze the breath of life (the Holy Spirit) out of you and cut off your lifeline to God (prayer). A python does not quickly kill its victims; it stalks its victims before suffocating them. Like a python, the work of demons is slow but meticulous.

Demons don’t swiftly come into a person’s life and destroy them. Very rarely does someone wake up to find demons ruining their life. Instead, demons slowly work on people, until, little-by-little, they are entirely controlled by demonic spirits.

The python spirit reminded me of wounds from my past to accomplish its deadly agenda; it flooded me with circumstances that just about knocked the wind out of me. At times I felt weary and overwhelmed. This python spirit wanted my spiritual breath. Satan wanted my breath and was working hard to obtain it.

Do you feel the devil trying to destroy your spiritual life? The python spirit will distract you first and then throw a full-blown trial at you to take you out of your purpose. Python works to distract people from praying and connecting with God so they can’t fulfill their mission. And that is what it tried to do to me; python used attacks, trials, and persecutions to distract me. Again, python’s ultimate goal is to put you in bondage and hinder your purpose. If you feel you are going through the motions and suffocating from the inside, python may be the culprit.
