SID: Now Francis, you’re such a nice guy. I find it hard to understand how you had thousands of witches and warlocks fasting and praying, and cursing you. But even a more important question than that is you survived. How did you survive?

 

FRANCIS: Well the short answer is, you know, life and God, and the Holy Spirit forces us to find our shelter in the Most High. And the situation you’re referring to was back when I had written a book called “The Three Battlegrounds.” And that book and the Bible was given to this fellow who was into witchcraft and [he] had a large mailing list, and that mailing list, when he got saved, this guy came to Christ and when he gave his life to Jesus he began giving out Bibles and “The Three Battlegrounds.” And I remember telling him, I don’t need this kind of promotion.

 

SID: Thousands of witches and warlocks.

 

FRANCIS: Yeah, really. But I went on with my life. And you know, cities were opening up and there were moves of God, and there were personal blessings, and it was all these wonderful things happening. And now a few years later, we had led this lady to the Lord and she had been involved in a coven that was putting curses, trying to put curses on us, and the amazing thing to me was I didn’t even know it. I couldn’t tell that there was a curse that was trying to get through the protection of God. And every believer has that. We’re sealed with the Holy Spirit and to be able to live in that and to function in there, and to walk through life, “Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil because the Lord is with us.” Amen.

 

SID: So you had already prepared for this not even knowing this was ever going to happen.

 

FRANCIS: No. My focus really is on the Lord, on this. If he tells me to deal with the enemy, I do.

 

SID: All right, speaking of that, you had a woman that was actually part of the group praying and fasting, and cursing you, came into a congregation you were speaking in. Tell me about that.

 

FRANCIS: Well the woman was, through a witness relocation program, was moved to the city where we lived, where I lived and she was, she took advantage of an outreach that we had to [find] a home, a group home where she could be secured from her husband who was trying to kill her. So one of our ladies, our dear ladies in the church brought her to church on a Saturday night, we had a Saturday night service at the time, and it happened I was speaking that night about how God will not allow a curse to light upon the righteous. All of a sudden, this lady realizes she’s in the church of the man they were trying to put curses on.

 

Man: Praise you Lord. We worship you. Praise you! Praise you!

 

Woman: Often times…

 

FRANCIS: And she begins to manifest demonically. She was picking people up and throwing up. She’s a bigger, stronger, demonized human, throwing men, picking up ladies and throwing ladies.

FRANCIS: And right after the service, the woman that was in charge of the prayer team that took her into the back room to have prayer, she comes down. Now when she first came to church, she looked great, had a little bun on the top of her head. She was very personable, you know. Now after the service, her bun is hanging down. She kept looking at me cockeyed. So I go walking over to the room. At the time I had tennis elbow. I couldn’t like pick up my cup. I had no strength at all in my right arm and I was carrying my briefcase in my left arm, when I went into the room. When she said “Francis is here,” she bent over and took out of her purse a fishing knife and in her demonic frenzy she lunged at my face with this knife. And the Lord, this was the arm I couldn’t pick up a coffee cup, the Lord, how many of you know the Lord loves photo finishes? He healed my arm on the way up and that knife went right…you ought to shout. That was a shout.

 

SID: That was such a shout, you wouldn’t be here if the Lord didn’t.

 

FRANCIS: I know. I know. So you know, it actually broke her wrist when my hand and her arm came down. And then she passed out and eventually everybody took her home. I called the next day. I got her number at this group home, and I called the next day, and I said, “You know, I can have you arrested for attempted murder, but I want you to know that Jesus loves you and he brought you here. You think you came on your own, but he brought you here because he wants to show you his salvation.” And she said, “I hate men. My dad, my father abused me, my pastor abused me, the street evangelist abused me and your God is a man and I hate them, and I hate you, and I hate God.” And I said, “Look, I’m calling. I could send you to jail for a long time because I have all these witnesses that saw you try and kill me.” And I said, “But I’m not going to do that. I want you to know that Christ forgives you that our Lord Jesus forgives you and he wants…” And all of a sudden this girl began to cry. She hadn’t cried since she was a little girl and she accepted the Lord. Amen.

 

SID: I’m not going to keep telling you when to clap.

 

FRANCIS: So anyway, so it was in the context of that that the Lord began to show me how he had structured my spiritual walk so that I would be under the shelter of the Most High, that I would be in his presence. It’s not that I always walked perfect and never failed or stumbled. It’s that there are principles, spiritual principles that I put in the book, “The Shelter of the Most High.” It wasn’t theory, it wasn’t just theology, it wasn’t just doctrine. It was something that God had done in me and to me, and through me that made that barrier of his presence immunize me from the attack of the enemy.

 

SID: Now I am told that Psalm 91 protects you from every conceivable thing that could be thrown at you in this life. That’s what the secret place is. Do you realize every protection you see in Psalm 91 is in the secret place? But most don’t know how to get to the secret place. When we come back we’re going to get to the secret.
