SPIRITUAL WARFARE: “Listen to those beautiful song birds,” my friend said, as he tuned his ears to a musical pitch I can no longer hear. “What are you talking about?” I answered. “I’m talking about the birds up there in the tree” he responded. With a knowingly dry sense of humor, I replied, “There are no birds in that tree. I don’t hear a thing.” He just looked at me and said, “Really? You can’t hear them.”
I’ve long lost my hearing at high decibels. Fortunately, I’m aware I’m deaf at anything over 80 dB. This roughly corresponds to spiritual warfare: invisible enemies. Are there song birds in the forest? Sure. Denying the music only makes me look stupid. What about demons? “Don’t exist!” you say? Really! What if you’re actually “deaf,” and there really are “demons in the forest?” This is information you should probably have. Besides, there are people who’ve “heard” them, and beautiful music is not on their agenda!

The Howard Pittman Story: Is the attached story true? Howard Pittman says it is. In 1978, he retired from the New Orleans Police Department, and is now a pastor. Does his experience square with the Bible? We think so, but that is something you will need to decide for yourself. We think there are lessons in this story that could change the way you live, and we include it in this section because the description of the demonic world is graphically portrayed. If you think spiritual warfare is something you're not already facing, you might want to read what Howard has to say about it.
