My friend Pam was molested by her father at age four. She grew up to be a witch. She reversed a spell in my son's room. My daughter heard noises coming from the room. She opened the door, and saw toys flying around the room. The next day, we anointed the room with oil, and rebuked the evil spirits, and they left!!!!
Pam came to me with blood oozing from her eyes, her mouth, her ears, and her ears. She asked me to pray for her, and I did. And Jesus healed her!!!!
