Internet Client Testimonial: Issues with Depression, Generational Curses and PTSD

By Don Ibbitson

See other “Success Stories“


testimonial Hopelessness Fear Unbelief

What issues were you dealing with? Be specific.
PTSD, depression, hearing voices, nightmares, low self esteem, family miscommunications, uncontrollable crying, panic attacks, suicide, moderate drug dependency, digestive issues.

How where they affecting you?
I didn’t really feel normal or happy. I had a “regular” life, but it didn’t feel that way. I felt like I was living a life for a very critical audience of judges. I rarely felt any joy, or peace. I just hoped that I would die peacefully some night, and just be done with everything. Heavy, and exhausted, guilty for no reason, unloved. I was suicidal, even stating, at least 14-30 times a day, “I just want to kill myself”, or “I just want to die”. I’ve been through years of therapy as well, but This deliverance seminar has helped me 100 fold more.

What changes have you seen?
I feel lighter. I used to feel punished and afraid, fearing bad things. I felt suspicious and judged always. Now I feel normal. I feel hopeful. I feel more thankful, and less guilty or shameful. I smile more often, and my bad moments pass quickly. The rain cloud lifted, and my doubts are fleeting, and not pressing. I still have memories that make me feel afraid but they no longer control my emotions and dictate my life. I have gained a better discernment of spirits in my life, and thoughts and i can see them at work in my family and friends, and can pray more decisively. My prayers have grown more bold, and my faith is deeper than ever. My nightmares have ceased.

Other Comments
I am a believer, but I was skeptical. Just trust. Let go, be vulnerable like a child, and hope and believe. The prayer warriors there WILL help you. While in the deliverance I felt a bit of doubt, and began praying, and i heard the holy spirit tell me briefly to look around at the room, and for a second, I saw massive Angels standing side by side all around the walls with their wings touching together like a cathedral roof. In between each aisle I also saw large Angels walking around the room grabbing demons, which came out if people like little whisps of smoke, under their breath, in quiet little hisses. The Angels gradded them calmly and silently, casting them away. I cant stop testifying what I saw. I knew then that this whole thing was something real, and that God’s spirit was there, and arranged all of this for us, through the above and beyond team. Dont feel embarrassed or silly, The prayer warriors and counselors really have dealt with this enough to know what to do and there really ARE Angels there working, even if you dont see anything or feel anything immediately. Dont worry, your situation is not too weird, or too mundane. You’re not weak, it wont be silly, or weird or ineffective. Whatever is hindering you, go in spite of that feeling. You will be surprised. Even if you are really active in your church, or you’re a pastor, and read scripture daily. You might have a stronghold in your life, that you need others gathered together in prayer to help you with. Even the apostles had to encourage each other and the growing church. This is no different. The bible speaks of scrolls being opened and seals being broken in revelations. Could this be in the form of new understanding, and teaching? I believe so. You will get a new perspective and gain better understanding of the authority you have been given through Jesus, over the demonic strongholds that may be in your life and church and your ministry. If anything, it will give you a testimony of God’s spirit.
I am an evangelist with a weekly open air ministry for homeless people and my ministry has grown momentum. You might solve issues you never imagined existed. I used to believe that I was just a depressed person, After struggling with sadness since I was a child. I dont feel that way anymore. I also dont hear the same voices of judgement in my head anymore. My perspective and perception of God has even changed. My reactions to people has changed as well (for better).

Client Testimonial: Relief from Hopelessness, Fear and Unbelief

By Don Ibbitson

testimonial Hopelessness Fear Unbelief

What issues were you dealing with? Be specific.
I was experiencing heavy demonic oppression that had me in a deep pit of despair. I was struggling with a lot of unbelief and doubt about God and I was also dealing with fear and perverse thoughts. I had little joy in my life and was not walking in the victory Jesus bought for me on the cross.

How where they affecting you?
They left me in a constant state of sadness and fear. I was unable to enjoy my life or relationships because I was constantly being tormented.

What changes have you seen?
I am experiencing more joy in my life and I feel the peace and love of the Holy Spirit with me. God has been strengthening my faith and drawing me closer to Him. I am able to enjoy my relationships with my friends and boyfriend now without constant oppressive thoughts.

Other Comments
Demonic oppression is a very real and serious issue. Above & Beyond does an amazing job at equipping you to walk in freedom and experience the love and joy or Christ. I highly recommend going through deliverance to anyone who is struggling!

Victory Over Fear, Pride, Rejection and Family History of Witchcraft

By Don Ibbitson

testimonial pride Fear Rejection

What issues were you dealing with? Be specific.
I was experiencing torment by demons due to curses of witchcraft in my family. I was overwhelmed with fear and doubt. I struggled with pride, rejection and resentment.

How where they affecting you?
The pride, resentment, self-condemnation, self-rejection was affecting every relationship I had, even my relationship with God. I was overwhelmed with guilt and shame from past sin, that I wasn’t able to successfully function in relationships with family, friends and with the Lord. I hated myself and was very displeased with myself and thought that God felt the same way. On top of everything, I was being tormented at night by demons, which the world calls “sleep paralysis”. That went on for 19 years.

What changes have you seen?
My relationship with my parents has been much better! I’ve been able to talk to them from a place of love in my heart, instead of avoiding them because of resentment. I literally feel like a burden has been lifted from my heart and I feel like peace has really taken over. I have been able to sleep peacefully without attacks.

Other Comments
It is extremely vital for every single Christian to go through deliverance. The blood of Jesus seriously sets you free! You feel so much peace in your life regardless of the circumstance. The fruits of the Holy Spirit are able to grow fully in your life. Deliverance was such an essentially part of my life and the journey is amazing. No one should pass the opportunity of seeking deliverance!
