Spiritual Power Encounters in West Africa - John Arnold

Spirituality in underdeveloped regions like West Africa is not the same as spirituality in most of the more developed western world. Is it simply a more superstitious region due to a lack of education and development, or are God and His enemies engaged in more vivid displays of spiritual power? Today’s guest, John Arnold, has spent four decades in West Africa as a missionary, and joins us to share his thoughts and experiences related to the spiritual realities in both places.

    Loved the interview. Best interview I've seen of how Jesus works with you when you dedicate your life to him and does his work the same way he did 2000 years ago.

    Most especially in Africa they rely on other sources apart from God for spiritual powers, many of them for their own personal gain. John’s story about the witch doctor is just like when the apostle Paul spoke with the sorcerer and he was amazed at the power of the Holy Spirit that he wanted to pay for it. As a believer who has witnessed the spirit realm on both sides of the fence, I enjoyed this interview. Intriguing to say the least.

    While it’s great to hear from famous missionaries like the Bakers, I’m more excited to hear of the testimony of this lesser known missionary because it shows that ordinary people like me can do the works of the Kingdom.

    I have lived in the USA for over seven hears , I have lived in Germany for over 7 years I was born and bred in Africa and I now live in Africa as an evangelist. I have had some fair notion of both spiritual realities. I strongly believe that there is still alot to understand about both spiritual realities. It has nothing to do about development and intellectual advancement. I was born and bred in Africa and for all my life till 28 years i never met any body told me that there was no GOD. The greatest surprise of my life when somebody told me point blanc that there was no God , no Jesus etc Talking of being shocked I was beyound being shocked. African are very conversant of a spiritual world and a physical world.

    ~32:40 my favourite part of that passage is verse 12 Exodus 7:12 (NKJV): For every man threw down his rod, and they became serpents. But Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.

    Awesome testimony… thank you so much for sharing these experiences with us!! I worry for the church in America who don’t look anything like this… makes me think we’re just playing Christianity more than living in the power of God. I would like to know more from this missionary, how do we get born again? How do we know if we are born again? God bless you both for this time of ministry for the body!

    Amazing Testimony. You should have Eric Mukisa on, her testimony is wild. God is doing a mighty work through her and her husband in Africa, their channel on KZread is called Life is Spiritual. Proverbs 9:10

    There are no mind tricks in the spiritual realm. There is power and depends on whose side you are on. The Spirit world is real that’s why God is real. I think missionaries need to know that the enemy exists in the spiritual world as much. Demons are exist so do angles. I believe that’s why Every knee shall bow and every tougue confess that Jesus is Lord. It’s a battlefield out there.

    Interviewer should try leaving America some time. I've never been to Africa, but I've been all over Asia and you can see the supernatural everywhere. Even the atheists I knew over there didn't doubt the power of the spirits. It was too obvious.

    I wonder what it is about America that keeps us from seeing and experiencing the spirit realm as much as so many other cultures and places in the world. I’ve even heard of countless people from islands have cross generation experiences with mermaids.

    You should get David Hogan Roland and Heidi Baker of Iris global in Mosanbique. They've survived numerous attempts at killing them,feed thousands , have planted hundreds of churches, established schools,hospitals,all in the midst of the jihad wars all around them. They train and sent out missionaries

    In America, we are deluded into believing that science is over supernatural, there aren't demons, facts rule because we are 'more advanced' but then these same ppl will buy charms, wear amulets, wear crystals, etc. satan is indeed subtle here & we are darker than the ppl who know of the 'power' of satan. Thank God for His Son, Jesus!!

    I pray, and hope that as you’re teaching people about the God of the Bible and Jesus that you are following and teaching them to follow his ways and what he taught. Because of your still practicing Christmas and Easter, and many of the things that the church is thrown out Jesus will one day say to people who think they are following him get away from me you workers of iniquity. I never knew you and they will respond. Didn’t we cast out demons in your name so please be careful and come out completely from among them come out otherwise you’re still worshiping Satan.
