Beauty’s POV

There was no point wasting time.

The moment Teju looked at me and I saw the tiny spark of hope in his eyes, I knew what needed to happen next.

Prayer…Not discussion…Not analysis…Prayer.

Because what had been done to Imade was not ordinary.

It was witchcraft…And witchcraft does not leave by explanation.

It leaves by force.

Teju seemed to understand the urgency too…He did not ask another question…He simply looked at me and said quietly,

“Let’s pray.”

We both stood up.

People around us were already praying loudly in different corners of the prayer camp. Some were on their knees. Some were pacing the floor. Some were crying before God.

But what was about to happen between us was different.

It was war.

I lifted my hands first.

“Father in the name of Jesus,” I began, my voice trembling with intensity, “We come before you as your children who have discovered the works of darkness. Thank you for this revelation. Thank you for the gift of Salvation and Prayer that can move mountains.”

Teju joined immediately.

“Lord, we stand on your word that says no weapon formed against us shall prosper.”

I continued.

“Every witchcraft manipulation that has been programmed against Imade’s mind… today we confront it in the name of Jesus!”

Teju’s voice rose beside mine.

“Every spell spoken over her mind… every enchantment… every manipulation of her emotions… we break it now in the name of Jesus!”

My spirit caught fire.

“Every voice whispering lies into her heart against her husband… against her home… against her destiny… we silence those voices by the blood of Jesus!”

Teju began pacing as he prayed.

“Every witchcraft network that sat down and planned against my marriage… I scatter that gathering now by the fire of the Holy Ghost!”

A few people around us began to turn and listen.

But we did not stop…This was not the time to be quiet…I lifted my voice louder.

“Every spiritual chain tying Imade’s mind to darkness… break now in the name of Jesus!”

Teju echoed immediately. “Break now in Jesus’ name!”

“Every bewitchment placed upon her thoughts… her emotions… her judgment… I command it to catch fire now!”

“Catch fire in the name of Jesus!”

“Every spirit of confusion assigned to destroy their marriage… come out now!”

Teju’s voice thundered.

“Loose her and let her go!”

We both began praying in the Spirit.

The atmosphere around us shifted.

I could feel the same fire I had experienced during my own deliverance years ago.

Then I spoke again.

“Father… every covenant Imade entered into that affected this marriage… by the blood of Jesus we cancel it today!” Teju added immediately.

“Every agreement made in darkness against our union… we revoke it in the name of Jesus!”

“Every altar where their names were mentioned for destruction… catch fire now!”

“Catch fire!”

“Every witchcraft hand touching Imade’s womb… touching her destiny… touching her marriage… wither now!”

“WITHER NOW!”

“Every spiritual blindness placed upon her eyes… receive sight now in Jesus’ name!”

Teju lifted both hands to heaven. “Lord! Restore my wife’s mind!”

My voice broke as I prayed the next line.

“Father… return her heart to peace.”

The prayer grew deeper…Stronger…More urgent.

Teju’s voice began to crack.

“Every demon assigned to monitor our home… I command you to leave now in the name of Jesus!”

“Leave now!”

“Every spirit that entered through deception… through manipulation… through witchcraft covenants… I command you to pack your load and go!” Teju shouted.

“GO!”

“By the authority of the name of Jesus!”

“GO!”

The two of us continued praying intensely…Minutes passed…Then suddenly…Something shifted.

A strange calm entered my spirit…I stopped speaking…Teju also paused.

We looked at each other…And we both knew…Something had broken.

Somewhere…Chains had just snapped.
