MY EXPERIENCE WITH "ELEMI"

She is possessed. Get her a Red and White Dress and let her come for the weekly revival....We will chase the demon out of her the prophetess fumes...
They call them "Elemi”. They are prophetess from the white garment denomination who goes on pilgrimage to the celestial realm...Sometimes for 14days, 21days or 40days...
My own Elemi was on 40 days pilgrimage until she saw the vision that I was possessed.

As I walked into the revival auditorium that evening, I knew I was not going to leave the same way I came. I saw the anger and hatred from Elemi’s face. She was looking so mean and ferociously at me and my heart skipped several seconds..
In the mid 80’s, Nigeria was predominated with orthodox and white garment churches. Pentecostal revival had not taken place and majority of Christians either belong to the orthodox clan or the White garments clan. We belonged to the orthodox clan. My family is deeply rooted in Methodism till this very moment and that was where I was baptized and I took my first holy communion.
On the other hand, our neighbor happened to be the Oludasile (General Overseer) of a white garment church. You know, apart from the generally known white garment churches we see, there are thousands of them that have no affiliation with the popular ones. They are built, orchestrated and founded by individuals who claims that God called them into the ministry. Our neighbor was one of them.
His Church thrived and boomed in the early 80’s. We were neighbors and because he had kids who were in the same age range with us, we normally go there to play and his kids also come around to our house. It was more of a neighbor relationship than a Christian relationship. I see them as neighbors and friends before seeing them as Church owner or GO
The friendship grew so much that we used to sneak out of the house to play with them. Dad forbids us going to people’s abode so we only get to play around anytime he’s not around. One of the most precious times for us to go out is revival time. Prayer is good dad believes so he doesn’t stop us from attending the church evening activities since it’s just the next house.
This particular evening, Elemi was on her normal celestial adventure to heaven and throughout the period of her adventure, revival must hold. That way, Elemi will have the opportunity to pass messages to us directly from God’s throne. Elemi will look at you and tell you your problems in a second. She will also tell you how to go about solving them. It used to be power-packed, people-filled, hope-raised revival back then.
Also, Elemi used to beat demons out of people. Once Elemi gets the notification from heaven that you are possessed then that is it. Elemi will pick up her broom and beat the demon out of you. Everyone dreads Elemi. She was not of this world. She belonged to the celestial realm and they even told us, Elemi doesn’t eat throughout the period of her celestial voyage.
Elemi charged towards my seat and pounced on me. She gave me the beatings of my life. Her brooms pierced and bruised every part of my fragile body. I was dazed. The problem is when Elemi beats you; you have no right to run. Elemi was so determined to kill me. I couldn’t take it anymore so I ran out of the church and straight to our house.
You will agree with me that it’s not by force to go to church. So I told myself, it’s been almost 28 days that Elemi has been on her journey and she never raised her hand to beat me so why today? I got home, told my dad everything that happened and how Elemi almost killed me. I haven’t finished speaking when the emissaries entered. Yes, Elemi emissaries entered our sitting room and met me with dad. So they told him, “Eyi ni Ikilo olorun si iranse re. Omo eniyan ni lati teti sile gidigidi fun ikilo yi. Omobinrin, e yi ti o n se ikan ninu awon omo re ti gbabode a si ni lati tu sile. Omo eniyan yi o ra aso pupa opa meji, aso funfun opa meji and abela meje fun itusile omobinrin re. E mase ko eti ikun si oro yin. Alafia fun omo eniyan” - This is the warning of god to his servant. Son of man needs to listen attentively to this warning. Your daughter is possessed and she needs to be delivered. Son of man must buy two yards of white cloth, two yards of red cloth and seven candles which will be used for her deliverance. Don’t ignore the warning. Peace be unto you”
Just like the message came, my red cloth and white cloth were ready the second day and dad was my time keeper. Making sure the demon was removed from me. Every day was hell for me. I was just barely 9 years old and Elemi must be in her late twenties. She descended so meanly on me and gave me marks for every demon she pushed out. I was in pain
