[Video] THE DAY A 5,080-YEAR-OLD ANCIENT GIANT VISITED THE CHURCH

Summary

This video from the Christian Church of All Nations in Thessaloniki features the deliverance of a woman who believes she is possessed by a powerful demonic spirit, identifying itself as a “great giant from Iran.” The woman, born in Iran and raised in Sweden, describes how this spirit has tormented her throughout her life. During the deliverance session, the spirit speaks through her, expressing its ancient origins as a fallen angel that once ruled over Persia, and its hatred for Jesus Christ. The pastor confronts the spirit, which reveals it has been influencing her for thousands of years, passing through her bloodline, and has caused destruction in her life and the lives of others, particularly targeting Christians in Iran. The video juxtaposes scenes of the woman’s struggle during the deliverance with her later testimony, where she explains how many confusing and painful events in her life now make sense, including a visit to the ancient ruins of Persepolis where she saw depictions of giants. Ultimately, the pastor casts out the demon in the name of Jesus Christ, and the woman is shown at peace, expressing her newfound freedom and gratitude to God. The video concludes with an invitation to a revival event in San Diego, USA.

Key Points

  • Demonic Possession and Torment: A woman of Iranian descent manifests a powerful demonic spirit that claims to be an ancient “giant from Persia” and a “fallen angel.”

  • Spiritual Warfare: The pastor engages in a direct confrontation with the demonic entity, commanding it to reveal its identity and its destructive influence on the woman’s life.

  • Historical and Spiritual Roots: The demon claims an ancient origin, linking itself to the historical kings of Persia and a kingdom established thousands of years ago by fallen angels. This connects to the woman’s visit to Persepolis, where she saw archaeological evidence of giant kings.

  • Power in the Name of Jesus: The deliverance is performed through the authority and power of the name of Jesus Christ, which the demon acknowledges as a source of torment and ultimate defeat.

  • Freedom and Deliverance: After the demon is cast out, the woman is freed from its influence. She testifies to the peace she now feels and how the experience brought clarity to a lifetime of struggle and unexplainable events.

  • Generational Influence: The demon reveals that it moves through bloodlines, indicating a generational curse or influence that has affected the woman’s family.

  • Targeting Believers: The spirit explicitly states its mission to destroy people, particularly those who follow Jesus Christ, and mentions the persecution of Christians in Iran.

Relevant Bible Scriptures

Here are some Bible scriptures that relate to the themes presented in the video:

  • The Existence of Demonic Spirits and Giants (Nephilim):

    • Genesis 6:4 (NIV): “The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.” – This verse is often interpreted as referring to fallen angels intermingling with humans, resulting in a race of giants, which aligns with the demon’s claim of being an ancient giant and a fallen angel.

    • Ephesians 6:12 (NIV): “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” – This explains the nature of the spiritual battle shown in the video, where the fight is against demonic powers, not the person they inhabit.

  • Jesus’ Authority Over Demons:

    • Mark 1:23-26 (NIV): “Just then a man in their synagogue who was possessed by an impure spirit cried out, ‘What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!’ ‘Be quiet!’ said Jesus sternly. ‘Come out of him!’ The impure spirit shook the man violently and came out of him with a shriek.” – This is a clear example of Jesus’ direct authority to command demons to leave a person, similar to the pastor’s actions in the video.

    • Luke 10:17 (NIV): “The seventy-two returned with joy and said, ‘Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name.'” – This scripture shows that the authority over demons is extended to believers through the name of Jesus.

  • Deliverance and Spiritual Freedom:

    • Mark 16:17 (NIV): “And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons…” – This verse reinforces the commission given to believers to perform deliverances.

    • 2 Corinthians 3:17 (NIV): “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” – This speaks to the freedom from spiritual bondage that the woman experiences after the deliverance.

    • John 8:36 (NIV): “So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” – This highlights the ultimate freedom found in Jesus Christ, which is the goal of the deliverance prayer.

  • The Power of Prayer and Faith:

    • James 4:7 (NIV): “Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” – The woman’s willingness to come for prayer and the pastor’s authoritative stance reflect this principle of resisting evil through submission to God.
