I received a phone call last week from an oriental woman that claimed some strange things were happening within her home. I listened to her problems and while she was explaining to me on the phone, during the duration of our phone conversation I closed my eyes and I could sense a demonic male spirit was causing these problems for her and her family within their home.
She explained to me, that her son Brandon was physically attacked on three different occasions from a big male demonic spirit, by clawing three of his T- shirts, between his chest and stomach areas. It had left him with evidence of many surface scratches, cuts and reddish bruises approximately 3” to 4 1/2 “ in length. I looked at the shirts and it was like something had clawed his shirts with sharp claws. There were three slashes on two of his shirts and on the third one there were two slashes and a tear on the T-shirt.
I made arrangements with the family and with my Sr. Pastor Tim Waugh, Pastor Jeff Lagrimas and his lovely wife Pastor Denise, Mr. John Ide and my good friend Carl Okuyama to help bless this home. Six of us in total, including myself, had gone to the home. I instructed Mr. John Ide to make the prayer, which he performed. He made an awesome prayer for the home.
At that time I was using my spiritual vision and I couldn’t see anything within the home. At the same time, my Sr. Pastor Tim Waugh asked me, if I could see anything and my answer was no at that time. However, I could sense there were some demonic spirits active on the premises of the property. Two of the pastors had gone out of the home and walked on the premises, they sensed something on the two separate small piles of asphalt stacked on each other. One pile of asphalt was under the house along the wall line of the home and the other pile was on the outside of the yard. The asphalt came from an old asphalt road, which was broken into many blocks and it was placed partly around the home to keep the weeds down and also used as a walkway.
My Sr. Pastor Tim Waugh mentioned, this asphalt was probably placed on a grave without anyone knowing about it and it was removed and brought to this property without realizing problems would occur to this home. Pastor Tim Waugh is a powerful pastor, he has many gifts given to him from God, such as gift of vision, gift of healing, gift of deliverance, gift of preaching and much more. In my personal opinion, he is a Man of God. God uses him in many ways, just log onto Google and type the words City Of Joy Christian Fellowship; you may see the signs and wonders of God.
Pastor Jeff and Pastor Denise, these two pastors are very strong and knowledgeable with the bible. As they both walked on the premises of the property, they got a slight headache in the back of their heads and neck areas as they were passing by the piles of asphalt. They prayed and blessed the piles of asphalt in Jesus Mighty Name. While they were blessing the piles of asphalt, I was with Mr. John Ide and I was very concerned for him, because I have been training him for this type of blessing and if any of the demonic spirits were to attack him, I would step in and pray along with him and cast out all the demonic spirits from this home and from this premises in Jesus Mighty Name.
After the blessing of the home was completed, my good friend Carl Okuyama made a closing prayer for the family and for all of us. While he was making the prayer, I could feel the love of God and anointing within him. I have known Carl Okuyama for many years and he has a great love for God, within himself and toward others, especially to the younger children. He and his lovely wife Amy have a website called, “IT START AT HOME” He and his wife truly believe everything starts at home. When you stop and think about it, it sure makes sense! Don’t you agree with me?
This afternoon 8/29/10 (Sunday), we had our Water Baptism at Onekahakaha Beach Park. After the water baptism, I had an opportunity to discuss with Brandon about the incidents, which took place at his home. It was on August 13, 2010 (Friday) he experienced the first attack from the demonic spirit. He described to me, it was about eight to nine feet tall and the shoulder-to-shoulder width was approximately four feet, with reddish eyeballs. I asked him what was the color of the skin? He said it was shiny black, with scales on its body. I asked him, did it have horns? He said yes! The right and the left sides of the head had approximately twelve-inch long horns and the center of the head had a horn approximately seven inches in length. What about the lower part of the body? From the waist down, it had a black mist, so he couldn’t see anything below the waistline including the legs or feet.
Second attack: I believe it was on August 16, 2010 (Monday) he again had encountered the same demonic spirit, which clawed the second T-shirt, there were three claws cuts on his shirt, including cuts or scratches on his body.
Third attack: I believe that during the second and third attacks the demonic spirit grabbed him and flew him approximately six feet or more. Totally twice, the demonic spirit grabbed him and tossed him around. I physically saw the scratches, cuts and bruises on his stomach and chest area. I believe some of the cuts or scratches will show some light scars for a long period of time, because his skin is very fair. It is very visible.
At the same time, the demonic spirit told him the cross that he was wearing around his neck couldn’t save him. I invited the family to attend my church and I believe it was on August 22, 2010, I looked at the cross very closely and I saw the cross-had the symbol of a dragon, which he didn’t know about. Anyway, before the church service started, Pastor Jeff Lagrimas blessed the cross and disposed of it in Jesus Mighty Name.
I asked him a final question, while these things were happening to you, were you afraid of the demonic spirit? His answer was Yes! After the August 22, 2010 (Sunday) blessing of the home, the demonic spirit didn’t came back. Praise the Lord! However, somehow, I have a feeling it may try to come back again, I pray, that I am wrong about it. It’s all depending on the family’s faith with God and the Power of the Holy Spirit. Amen! (So be it)
I always mention to people that there are many reasons why these demonic spirits may enter into your home. 1) If you pray or worship for these type of spirits, they may come. 2) If you have something that belongs to them, they may come. 3) If you meditate or talk about it, they may come.
If you don't do these things, chances are they have no reason to come to your home. Amen!
I pray that this message is very informative to you.
At this time, I would like take this opportunity to thank Pastor Tim Waugh, Pastor Jeff Lagrimas, Pastor Denise Lagrimas, Mr. John Ide and my good friend Carl Okuyama for helping to make this blessing a very successful one. Amen!
From Pastor Jimmy Nishimoto and Chris Eliason.

SPIRITUAL VISION
Spiritual vision is a wonderful gift from God; however, sometimes it can be very depressing. Why? Sometime when I look at a person, I can see the Aura or Nimbus around the person, such as whitish, yellowish, grayish, or blackish. Now whitish is considered a very good color, like purity like an angel, yellowish color is like within a year or so, that person may leave this planet unless he or she repents of their sins. Grayish color is like fifty/ fifty, it could go either way, like leaving this planet or may recover and live a normal life, depending on how he or she changes their lifestyle and by having a strong faith with God. Blackish color, most of the time, he or she will leave this planet that we are living on, unless a miraculous blessing happens upon that person from God.
In this world of ours, there are many Christian Pastors, Reverends and Ministers that God has given to each one of us with many different types of gifts. For example, today in the Medical fields there are Doctors who are expert and gifted within their specialty fields such as Doctor of Ophthalmology (Eye), Doctor of Dermatology (Skin), Doctor of Neurology (Nervous System) and many other Doctors who specialize in their own fields. I truly believe this is the same scenario as Ministers, Pastors or Reverends; we all have gifts from God. Some Ministers have the gift of preaching the word of God, some have the gift of healing, some have the gift of deliverance, and some have the gift of vision and on and on. These gifts all come from God.
We all have some gifts from God; we must use these gifts to help our flocks within the church and others. When any person needs help, even if that person doesn’t belong to your church we must help everybody. Sure in the back of our minds, sometime we may think he or she doesn’t belong to my church, so why should I want to help that person. That thinking is entirely wrong! Lets turn things around and let’s say you need help and you approach the minister or pastor of the church and he or she refuses to help you, at that time what will you be thinking about him or her? Your answer will be as good as mine.
We men or women of God cannot think that we are greater or better than the next person. We are not! We are the same as everyone else. The only difference is being as a servant of God, the accountability will be much greater upon us and try to explain to God. Why? We must answer to Him or a wake up call may come upon on us and we cannot blame anyone, but ourselves. Mark 4:22 tells us everything will be brought to light, nothing is hidden in the eyes of God. That is the most difficult thing to do explaining to God. We must all help the weaker ones and lead them to the Lord Jesus. That’s our responsibility as servants for God. As I read my Bible about Jesus, He didn’t refuse anyone that needed help, He gladly helped that person and we must all follow the same footsteps as our lord Jesus has walked the path. Why? He is full of LOVE within Himself for all of us. Love covers a multitude!
In spiritual, we are all brothers and sisters in Christ. Does it make sense to you? Of course, it makes sense! For example, let’s say, I am a life guard at the beach and my job ends at 4:00 PM and at 4:30 PM someone desperate needs help in the water and I am around at that time. I cannot tell myself I have punched out on the time clock so it doesn’t concern me. NO! I cannot think that way; I will try and help that person whether I am on duty or not. Right? I believe this is the same scenario with any minister. We must all help each other.
For me, I receive many phone calls and emails during the week from all different denominations and I will make an arrangement with the person or family. In my mind, they are all children of God, so I will make every effort to go there and help them in the Name of Jesus. Sometime I win and sometime I lose, depending on the individual’s faith, but I will try my best to help the person or family in Jesus Mighty Name. Many times, when the person or family follows my instructions, victory comes upon the person or the family. Praise the Lord!
In Hawaii, there are many burial grounds here and there and many times, we see beautiful rocks or stones while walking along the shoreline at the beach or places and sometimes people bring it to their home and sometimes troubles may fall on the person or at their home. I remember one incident a man brought home lots of rocks from the shoreline at the beach, he and his son got all kinds of problems and sickness came upon them for approximately a year. At that time, someone referred that person to me, as I recollect while I was praying in the home the Lord showed me in vision about rocks and I couldn’t understand at all. As I walk on the side of the house, the man had two or three huge piles of rocks and I asked him where did you get these rocks? He replied to me, he got the rocks from the beach along the shoreline and he planned to make a rock garden from these rocks for his home.
He asked me, if I could pray on his rocks and in the back of my mind, that’s lots of rocks in the piles, well I told him I will pray on his rocks. Anyway, I went through many of the rocks, from the rock piles and held them in my hands and prayed which one were good or bad.
One by one, it was a lot of rocks for me to feel after I had gone through all the piles of rocks. Out of all the piles of rocks, it was approximately 5 to 7 rocks or more that weren’t good at all. Certain rocks were unusually heavy in weight for the size of the rock, and at the same time my hands and fingers could feel like a tingling feeling and I put them in a different pile and I told him to take them back where he had found the rocks and ask for forgiveness, which he did and everything went back to normal. Praise the Lord!
So as you can see, spiritual vision had helped me a lot, without, it I wouldn’t have know if it was because of the rocks which he had got from the beach. Many times the rocks are nothing; however, if you brought home certain rocks, you may get into troubles. We must be very careful about bringing home anything from the beach or any other places. Sometime, people who build stonewalls may bring forbidden rocks, which they didn’t know about. In the first place, they shouldn’t have brought the rocks to the premise at all, unless you are absolutely sure it’s okay.
Sometime, the bad spirits may follow the rocks into your premises and problems may arise in the present or in the future. For those people who had stonewalls installed within their premise, have an Authorized person, I repeat, Authorized person to bless it with the Holy Oil, by pouring on the entire top of the walls and ask God to bless the walls and keep all the ungodly angels away from your premise in Jesus Mighty Name. Many times, it will be protected, if your faith with God is strong, especially when you have grandchildren running around within your home. We must not take any chances at all. Well so much about rocks, let’s get back to vision. If you have a strong relationship with God and the Power of the Holy Spirit then you can ask God for this spiritual gift of vision. If you feel you couldn’t handle it or take it, then I wouldn’t recommend anyone to ask God for a spiritual vision. Many times you may be too afraid to sleep during the night; however, once you get use to it, then it will become no problem for you, because God will protect you and your family. Amen!
The moral of this message is: it is good to have spiritual gifts from God, if you can handle it.

PRAYERS CAN BE IN ALL DIFFERENT LEVELS
Yes, prayers can be in all different levels. When we pray in silence, it is the lowest level of prayer. Praying not from our heart, it is like praying to an open space. It is absolutely nothing! When we pray from within our heart and out loud, it is a much higher level than a silent prayer. The next higher level is singing in tongues than praying out loud. Let’s see what is written in (NLT) Eph. 5:19, Then you will sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs among yourselves, making music to the Lord in your hearts. God loves to hear music and worshipping songs in His ears.
The next higher level is praying in tongues, it is a direct communication between God, the Power of the Holy Spirit and you. The enemy (Satan) can’t understand you at all while you are communicating with God. For example: Lets say you are praying in tongues saying, Kei, Keilana, Hala, Hala, Ketei, Usala-mala, Uchila, La kei, Mela, Hameila and etc. Would you be able to understand the meaning of this prayer? No! Of course not and also the enemy (Satan) would not be able to understand you at all. But God and the Power of the Holy Spirit would understand you perfectly clear. Many times by praying in English, Japanese, Chinese, German, Filipino, Korean and many other different languages, the enemy (Satan) will understand all languages too and he will try to block your prayer from going to God. Remember at the Babel Tower when everyone was speaking one language and God changed to all different languages so the people couldn’t understand each other. Well Satan was there too, so he understands all of these languages, except praying in tongues.
Pray with love within your heart, I truly believe God would want this very much. The greatest and the highest of all is JOY; the joy of the Lord is our strength within our life. When a person is full of joy within his or her heart, it means you also are full of love within yourself, toward others and to God. Satan doesn’t like it at all. He can only create fear to all of us, that’s what he is banking on. FEAR! So don’t worry about Satan and his demonic spirits followers, keep on being full of love and joy within your heart and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and the Power of the Holy Spirit. Amen!
Always, the worship team is very important within the church. Why? When the worship team sings the worship songs from their hearts, it usually draws in the Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit and the Angels into the church, which is very good. Remember, the worship team is not there to entertain you, but to draw in the Lord Jesus and the Power of the Holy Spirit into the church. That’s their calling in the church. When the worship team is singing the worship songs, close your eyes and open your heart to God and the Power of the Holy Spirit, you are giving God and the Holy Spirit full permission and control over you. Praise the Lord!
Now, the worship team leader must pray and ask God and the Power of the Holy Spirit to protect his or her worship teams against the wiles of the devil, by making a short prayer before the worship songs start. I call them the front line! Does it make sense to you so far?
The moral of this message for you, there are many different levels of prayers.
Which levels would you prefer?

CONFIDENTIALITY
Sometimes, I receive phone calls from people who have some family problems within their home. Being a pastor, I anticipate getting calls from people with problems. Sure enough, I have been getting calls every so often. Today, I believe I have over 2000 confidential problems or more within my head. Many of these problems were misunderstandings, jealousy, bitterness, anger and most of all PRIDE within the person or family. Sometimes, the problems may start from financial or health problems.
For me, I have become a good listener and let the person or family get it all off of their chests. Some of them cried while divulging their problems. After it had completely come out from the person or family, then I ask the person or family if it is all right for me to pray for them. Many times he or she will say yes, Please do pastor Jimmy; then I pray for that person or family in Jesus Mighty Name. Many of the problems can be solved and the family returns to normal. Just be patient and be a good listener and leave it the hands of the Lord Jesus. Amen!
I truly believe confidentiality is very important and priceless between you and that person or family. I will not divulge anything that has been discussed or said, it is between that person, family, God and myself. It is the same scenario as a Medical Doctor and his or her patients having confidential discussions. Now, if you don’t keep the confidentiality between yourself and the person or family, then how can that person or family have confidence or trust in you? Can you visualize what I am saying? Anyway, while listening to their problems, silently I am praying to the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit to grant me the wisdom and knowledge so I can guide them the right path with the right words. Remember, when the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit guide you, it will always be fine in the end.
We as Ministers or pastors must not repeat what have been said in the discussions, we must keep confidential what was discussed between the person and us. Don’t you agree with me? It is the code of ethics; we should honor and cherish it very deeply within our self. Does it make sense to you? Of course it makes sense! Sometimes, I would like to be like an Internet computer and delete all of the cookies. It would be a great relief for me. However, I know it cannot be done; I must take all of these confidential problems or discussion to my grave.
If you must explain the problems about the person to someone, don’t mention any names at all. Keep it strictly confidential! Sometimes, the story may get so blown up, like I had mentioned in one of my Internet Church Topics about fishing in Hilo’s Bay. (Hilo, Hawaii) For example, this past Saturday (8/7/10) my son, grandson and myself had gone fishing in Hilo’s Bay and we caught some papios (Local good eating fish). This type of fish, when it gets larger, it called Ulua, it can weight over 100 pound or more, that’s a lot of eating to do. We also caught some other types of fish too by trolling with my boat in the bay for several hours.
This coming weekend, if the weather is good and sunny, I am sure other boats will be trolling in the bay, which is very good. I know the story will go to the people saying that Pastor Jimmy caught a lot of papios in Hilo’s bay. From eleven fish, the story may end up that we had caught twenty or more. Well, so much about fishing and let’s get back to confidentiality, as the old saying goes, “Silence is Golden!”
I truly believe by reading my bible about Jesus, He wasn’t a blabbermouth Lord; He spoke what needed to be spoken to help the person or the people. Most of the time when He had done His miracle healings, He gave all credit to His Father God, up in heaven. Speaking of healing or spiritual problems, when a person approaches you and asks for prayer for his or her sickness; if possible, make sure the first prayer heals it, because sometimes it may get worse than before. Let’s see what is written in (NLT) Luke 11:24-26, “When an evil spirit leaves a person, it goes into the desert, searching for rest. But when it finds none, it says, I will return to the person I came from. 25 So it returns and finds that its former home is all swept and clean. 26 Then the spirit finds seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they all enter the person and live there. And so that person is worse off than before.”
Call the authorized person or persons who may be able to help you, and then you may have a better result from the prayer for your problems. For example, when you have roofing, plumbing, electrical problems call a licensed contractor to help you. Does it make sense to you? Of course it makes sense!
After the prayer is completed, ask God to apply His precious blood upon you from the crown of your head to the soles of your feet, in and out of your body, in Jesus Mighty Name, to seal all entrances within your body where the bad spirits will try to enter into your body. For instance, let’s say you are in a room full of people that have a bad cold or flu and your resistance is very low within your body. Chances are you may get their cold or flu. Right? Now the germs will not enter from your feet, arms, fingers or hands, but they may enter from your mouth or nose. Are you with me so far? I truly feel this is the same scenario with the demonic spirits, they could enter several other places within your body, so we must always ask God to seal all the entrances of your body with His’ precious blood, so they can’t enter into your body. Amen!
Let’s get back to confidentiality; we must always keep confidential any personal problems with the person and you. Don’t be a blabbermouth person. Always keep it confidential! Don’t you agree with me? Amen! Sometime, it may come back to you with more or bigger problems.
The moral of this message is keeping it all confidential.
May the Lord Jesus bless each and every one of you in God’s Name!

Anyway, while listening to their problems, silently I am praying to the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit to grant me the wisdom and knowledge so I can guide them the right path with the right words. Remember, when the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit guide you, it will always be fine in the end.
We as Ministers or pastors must not repeat what have been said in the discussions, we must keep confidential what was discussed between the person and us. Don’t you agree with me? It is the code of ethics; we should honor and cherish it very deeply within our self. Does it make sense to you? Of course it makes sense! Sometimes, I would like to be like an Internet computer and delete all of the cookies. It would be a great relief for me. However, I know it cannot be done; I must take all of these confidential problems or discussion to my grave.
If you must explain the problems about the person to someone, don’t mention any names at all. Keep it strictly confidential! Sometimes, the story may get so blown up, like I had mentioned in one of my Internet Church Topics about fishing in Hilo’s Bay. (Hilo, Hawaii) For example, this past Saturday (8/7/10) my son, grandson and myself had gone fishing in Hilo’s Bay and we caught some papios (Local good eating fish). This type of fish, when it gets larger, it called Ulua, it can weight over 100 pound or more, that’s a lot of eating to do. We also caught some other types of fish too by trolling with my boat in the bay for several hours.
This coming weekend, if the weather is good and sunny, I am sure other boats will be trolling in the bay, which is very good. I know the story will go to the people saying that Pastor Jimmy caught a lot of papios in Hilo’s bay. From eleven fish, the story may end up that we had caught twenty or more. Well, so much about fishing and let’s get back to confidentiality, as the old saying goes, “Silence is Golden!”
I truly believe by reading my bible about Jesus, He wasn’t a blabbermouth Lord; He spoke what needed to be spoken to help the person or the people. Most of the time when He had done His miracle healings, He gave all credit to His Father God, up in heaven. Speaking of healing or spiritual problems, when a person approaches you and asks for prayer for his or her sickness; if possible, make sure the first prayer heals it, because sometimes it may get worse than before. Let’s see what is written in (NLT) Luke 11:24-26, “When an evil spirit leaves a person, it goes into the desert, searching for rest. But when it finds none, it says, I will return to the person I came from. 25 So it returns and finds that its former home is all swept and clean. 26 Then the spirit finds seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they all enter the person and live there. And so that person is worse off than before.”
Call the authorized person or persons who may be able to help you, and then you may have a better result from the prayer for your problems. For example, when you have roofing, plumbing, electrical problems call a licensed contractor to help you. Does it make sense to you? Of course it makes sense!
After the prayer is completed, ask God to apply His precious blood upon you from the crown of your head to the soles of your feet, in and out of your body, in Jesus Mighty Name, to seal all entrances within your body where the bad spirits will try to enter into your body. For instance, let’s say you are in a room full of people that have a bad cold or flu and your resistance is very low within your body. Chances are you may get their cold or flu. Right? Now the germs will not enter from your feet, arms, fingers or hands, but they may enter from your mouth or nose. Are you with me so far? I truly feel this is the same scenario with the demonic spirits, they could enter several other places within your body, so we must always ask God to seal all the entrances of your body with His’ precious blood, so they can’t enter into your body. Amen!
Let’s get back to confidentiality; we must always keep confidential any personal problems with the person and you. Don’t be a blabbermouth person. Always keep it confidential! Don’t you agree with me? Amen! Sometime, it may come back to you with more or bigger problems.
The moral of this message is keeping it all confidential.
May the Lord Jesus bless each and every one of you in God’s Name!

HUMBLE
The higher we are elevated by God or in the Church; we must be more humble to everyone. Humbleness is the key to success to many things within our life. As I looked into the dictionary the word “Humble”, Humble is defined as not proud or haughty, not arrogant or assertive and it is the meaning of reflecting, expressing, or offered in spirit of deference or submission. Many years ago, in my twenty’s I took a martial art called Karate; it is art of self-defense, from white belt to first-degree black belt. Today, as I recollect at that time I was a very immature person thinking I was like a superman, breaking bricks, boards and a green bamboo stick with two men holding the raw eggs at each end of the six feet in length bamboo stick, breaking the stick without cracking the raw eggs. Many years ago, I made a demonstration for the karate school, like taping a knife at the ends of the six feet in length bamboo stick and poking the blades of the knives into a sheet of newspaper on both ends and breaking the bamboo stick without tearing the newspapers at all.
Also I got into many fights, most of the time, I lost the fights, because at that time I liked to fight big people and when I lost the fight, I wasn’t too ashamed of myself. Many years ago, probably forty years ago, I met a sensei (Teacher) who was holding a rank of 7 degree in black belt in karate, as I recollect, he was the most humble man I ever met, he was a short Japanese man, probably about five feet two inches in height and his strength was very powerful with his “Ki” (Inner spirit strengths) from Japan and when he greeted me by shaking hands, he shook my hand with both of his hands covering my one hand and at the same time he bowed to me with a smile on his face, fortunately I could speak some Japanese words and had conversation with him. At that time I couldn’t understand why he was so humble, but today I understand perfectly clear. The higher you become, the lower our head should bow down. (Humble) Well so much about martial art.
One day, I still remember what my father told and taught me. Jimmy, when you look at the mango trees, the trees with many mango fruits hanging on the branches will be much valuable to us. Don’t you agree? I looked at the mango trees and said sure I can have more mango fruits to eat. He told me, NO! NO! NO! What my father meant was the more mango fruits, the lower the branches will be hanging low and it will become much more valuable. Does it make sense to you? For me, I had learned a lesson from my father, till today I kept it deep within my heart. The trees without many fruits, the branches were facing in a two o’clock position and the trees with many fruits, the branches was in 4:00 to 5:00 o’clock positions. In other word, the higher we are being elevated up with the Lord Jesus, the lower our head should bow down. Don’t you agree with me?
It becomes the same scenario with the Lord Jesus and in our church; we must be very humble to everyone when we meet people and have respect toward each other. Remember, no one is greater on this planet then the next person, except the Lord Jesus Himself. Sure some of us might be a little slow to learn the Word of God, we must be very patient and help him or her, so they can be able to learn and understand the Word of God. In spiritual, we are all brothers and sisters in Christ. Don’t you agree with me? I truly believe God would remember you for what you are doing for Him. His work! Mark 4:22 tell us everything will be brought to light in the eyes of God. AMEN!
The moral of this message is we must be very HUMBLE to God and everyone in this world.
I pray that this message is very informative to you.

WE CANNOT TAKE EVERYTHING FOR GRANTED
In this world of ours, we must not take everything for granted; this morning (8/8/10) as I read my local newspaper, looking in the obituary section as usual, I recognized one of the names, which I had known the person for many years. Just about a month ago, I had spoken to the person at the supermarket parking lot and we were chit chatting about some of the good old days, but today, he is gone from this planet. I prayed to the Lord to take care of him, because he is a nice, good and friendly person.
As you can see, our lives are very short on this planet, the question we must ask ourselves is, are you ready to be with the Lord? Was my vacation on this planet pleasant and enjoyable? Was I productive and helpful to others while I was living on this planet? Did I accept the Lord Jesus as my personal savior? There are numerous reasons for each and every one of us here on this planet. Sure, I understand we are not perfect in this world of ours, except our Lord Jesus Christ. Don’t you agree with me? Anyway, when you have a few minutes, just ask these questions to yourself and be very honest about it. If your answer is No! Then pray within your heart and ask the Lord Jesus to help you and guide you to the right path. Give the Lord Jesus full permission and control over you in Jesus Mighty Name.
I always try to encourage people to attend a good Christian church within your area. When you feel comfortable with the church, then pray and have fellowship with the Lord Jesus and the Power of the Holy Spirit. Find a Christian church that has the anointing from the Lord Jesus and the Power of the Holy Spirit. Pray and ask the Lord Jesus to guide you to a good church. Don’t go because of your friends are attending the church, so you will try become a member of the church. No! Many times I have seen people attend the church because of their friends, remember friends cannot save you at the time of your need. Maybe, some provide comfort for you. Only the Lord Jesus and the Power of the Holy Spirit can save you.
I have gone to many homes and I have seen many things, sometimes while I am speaking to the person, the Lord reveals it to me in vision. Sometimes it really frightens me, not because of the physical condition of the person, but in vision I can see a big or small demonic spirit with an ugly face standing in the back of the person. Sometimes, I can see an Idol or a big shiny Golden Cross, which I am very pleased to see. Sometimes, even to a minister I can see a blackish color around his or her body. If that Minister doesn’t ask God for forgiveness and protection, I really don’t know what may happen to him or her. Only the Lord will know.
Sometimes, I really mean some time when I look at the person, I can see a yellowish or grayish or blackish color around the person in vision and for me it is a bad omen. When I said color, I don’t mean the physical color of the person’s skin. NO! It is the color around the person. A few months later, sure enough, I found out that person had passed away or something had happened to the person. That is what I meant by frightens me!
Sometimes, I ask the Holy Spirit, shall I speak to the person? The answer tells me No! So I just don’t say anything to the person. Many years ago, I was taught from an elderly Hawaiian Christian Reverend telling me to always listen to the Lord Jesus Christ and the Power of the Holy Spirit. My answer to him at that time was, “Okay Kahu” (Kahu means Shepherd in Hawaiian), I will and I kept it till today. As I recollect, while I was with him he had received all of kinds of spiritual gifts from the Lord Jesus and the Power of the Holy Sprit, such as vision, healing, deliverance and many other spiritual gifts were given to him.
He was one of the kind. He never took advantage of anyone in Hilo, Hawaii. He mentioned to me, when a person gets closer to the Lord Jesus and the Power of the Holy Spirit, he or she would have few friends. I asked him, why? His answer to me was, sometimes people will get jealous or bitter against you or the inner spirit of the person will be against you, without the person knowing about it. It is because of your gifts from the Lord Jesus that make your work for the Lord much easier for you. His answer to me at that time was, leave it in the hands of the Lord Jesus and perhaps one day, he or she may find out about it. He told me don’t worry about it, because you are not running for any popularity contest. Just please the Lord Jesus and the Power of the Holy Spirit, not man.
Many years ago, from the same Kahu, he told me to always respect the title of the person in the church. At that time, I couldn’t understand at all, but today, I understand perfectly clearly to respect all Ministers for the title that God has given to them. For me I respect all other Christian churches and all Reverends, Pastors or Ministers. In my mind, God have given him or her the title and I will not judge any of them at all. Let’s say, if I were to judge them, I know very well judgment may come upon me and I don’t want that to happen to my family or myself. In other words, let God judge them, not you, because he or she must answer to God, not to anyone else but to God. Does it make sense to you? Amen! (So be it)
Today, when people call me, if I am available, I will go to the person’s home in Jesus Mighty Name even if, it means a house blessing, deliverance or healing. Speaking of healing, you must try to get rid of the demonic spirit that caused the sickness. In the first prayer of blessing or sometime the enemy (Demonic Spirit) will become much stronger than the first time within the person and then it will become much more difficult to get rid of the sickness. In one of my topics, I mentioned that all sickness comes from the bad spirits, because God doesn’t want us to be sick, He wants us to be healthy, wealthy and prosperous while we are living in this world. However, Satan is opposite from God, He wants to destroy all what God had created in this world, mostly man. Are you with me so far?
Remember to keep praying to the Lord Jesus and the Power of the Holy Spirit because in this world of ours, we cannot take everything for granted.
I pray this message is very informative to you.

HOLY, HOLY AND HOLY
Holy, Holy and Holy is our Lord Jesus Christ, He will never leave or forsake you, He always will be with you, in heaven or on this planet when you need Him. This could happen when you truly believe in Him as your true Son of God. Always put your mind, body and soul to Him. Believe in Jesus and have relationship with Him, He will always lead you to the right path with your life. Sure sometimes, we all make mistakes, because we are not perfect as our Lord Jesus Christ. However, He is a loving and forgiving Lord, if you only ask Him to forgive you from your heart.
If you can’t pray correctly, don’t worry about it. Jesus doesn’t look at the color of your skin or words in your prayer, but he can read what is within your heart. The true temple is within your heart. He doesn’t care about the fancy words of prayer, but honest and sincerely heart to Him. Before you say any prayer coming out from your mouth, He understands, because He can read your heart; however, He wants you to confess it from your mouth. Just think for a minute, let’s say you wanted to say something from your mouth. Every one of us when we would like to say something, first it starts from our heart, and then goes into our brain and the words will comes out from our mouth. Don’t you agree with me?
For example, let's say you are angry at a person, now your heart has an anger spirit and the anger goes to your brain then the angry words will come out from your mouth, this the same scenario with the Lord. So as you can see, He can read any one of us from our heart. Does it make sense to you? Remember, before you make your prayer to the Lord cleanse your mind, heart and soul by praying on Psalm 51: 1-19, it is a prayer of forgiveness.
For example, when you get up from your bed, says good morning Lord! Today make it a wonderful, profitable, enjoyable, safe and sunny day for me. Keep all the ungodly angels away and bring me only the good. Amen! Now as you can see, it wasn’t too difficult to make this prayer? Right? Amen! As for me when I am in my car, I always close my car windows and listen to Christian songs or music from the CD or radio, while I am driving to my destination. Of course, I turn on my car air-conditioner, so I will be very comfortable while I am driving my car.
Sometimes, I talk or pray to the Lord Jesus and the Power of the Holy Spirit. It is a good thing my car windows are tinted, so people cannot see me talking to myself. I have to be very careful at the traffic lights, especially when it is a red light. People might say, look at Pastor Jimmy talking to himself again, it has happened many times in the past.
I have had people ask me a question. Pastor Jimmy, we have seen you at the traffic light at Puainako Intersection (Hilo, Hawaii) and when we were looking at your car, we didn’t see anyone with you? And yet it seemed like you were speaking to someone in the car. Who have you been talking to? I just smile and say I was trying to have conversation with the Lord Jesus and the Power of the Holy Spirit. At that moment, I told myself “WOW! ” I have to be more careful next time. Anyway, I am not ashamed at all.
When you speak to the Lord Jesus, converse with Him like you’re having a conversation with your friend, as a matter of fact, He is your best, trusted, friend. Amen!
What does Holy mean? Holy is defined as Exalted or worthy of complete devotion as one perfect in goodness and righteousness. You can find it in (NLT) Psalm 99:9, Exalt the lord our God and worship at his holy mountain in Jerusalem, for the Lord our God is holy! As you can see, our Lord Jesus is Holy, Holy, and Holy! Amen!
I pray this message is very informative to you.

BEAUTIFUL EVENING IN HAWAII
Tonight (8/3/10), in Hilo, Hawaii is a very beautiful evening as I walk toward my neighbor’s home to pick up her mail from her mailbox. She has gone to the mainland to visit her daughter. She asked me to take care of her mail, I told her, okay! Anyway as I was walking, I noticed, there were not any clouds at all in the sky. The stars were twinkling in the sky and I noticed one of the stars was the largest of all. I stopped walking for a minute or two and realized, how beautiful the star is. I immediately thanked the Lord Jesus, that I could be able to see and appreciate the stars. Sure, many years ago, I have seen many stars during the evening and I took it all for granted, without giving God the credit for it. At that time, I was young and didn’t know the Lord Jesus at all, but now I have strong faith with Him and I appreciate everything that God had created in this world of ours. Amen!
For many years, I seem to have forgotten this beautiful Island of Hawaii that we are living on. I thank the Lord Jesus for what God had created for us, such as the sun, moon, stars and many other things. Tonight is very quiet, peaceful, including my neighbor’s dogs are not barking at all and some of my neighbor’s lights were turned on, so I could be able to walk in the dark night with no flashlight to turn on. It is a very cool evening for anyone to walk around. There is no wind blowing; in my eyes, it is a perfect night. As I recollect what is written in Genesis 1:16, For God made two great lights, the sun and the moon, to shine down upon the earth. The greater one, the sun presides during the day; the lesser one, the moon, presides through the night. He also made the stars.
If you have a chance, when the night is still and quiet with no wind-blowing take the opportunity to look at the sky and see all the stars twinkling, you will realize how grateful and thankful we should be. Many times, we take everything for granted and forget to appreciate what God had created for all of us. We should all say, Thank You God!
I know we are all very busy with our daily lives trying to make a living; however, just think for minute, yes one minute and think to yourself without the breath of life, it would be all useless. I know I had a good friend living in Honolulu, Hawaii and he passed away and I flew over to Honolulu and attended his funeral service on Oahu. I remember, one of his sons was very health conscience, watching his diet, exercising and lifting weights at the gym to try to be in perfect condition, but one day as he was exercising, he had a heart attack and he passed away. He died in his late twenty’s, I believe he didn’t have time for God or know God at all, he only believed what his eyes could see, what his ears could hear and what his hands could feel or do. He didn’t attend any church, except on special occasions, such as wedding or funeral services. Those were the only times he went to church.
When he passed away, I prayed that God would forgive him and take care of him. Amen! As you can see, while we are living on this planet, we should take the time or make the time for God, because tomorrow, it may be too late. For some of us, tomorrow may not come to you at all. We cannot procrastinate with God; we must worship and have fellowship with Him now! (TNT) Today, not tomorrow! Amen! Now let’s get back to the beautiful evening in Hawaii.
We the people of Hawaii invite all of you from all over the world to come over to Hawaii and enjoy the evening and also the beautiful sunset at the west side of this Island, located in Kona, Hawaii. It is very awesome to watch the sunset, setting down at the horizon of the ocean and at the same time looking at the stars.

For many years, I seem to have forgotten this beautiful Island of Hawaii that we are living on. I thank the Lord Jesus for what God had created for us, such as the sun, moon, stars and many other things. Tonight is very quiet, peaceful, including my neighbor’s dogs are not barking at all and some of my neighbor’s lights were turned on, so I could be able to walk in the dark night with no flashlight to turn on. It is a very cool evening for anyone to walk around. There is no wind blowing; in my eyes, it is a perfect night. As I recollect what is written in Genesis 1:16, For God made two great lights, the sun and the moon, to shine down upon the earth. The greater one, the sun presides during the day; the lesser one, the moon, presides through the night. He also made the stars.
If you have a chance, when the night is still and quiet with no wind-blowing take the opportunity to look at the sky and see all the stars twinkling, you will realize how grateful and thankful we should be. Many times, we take everything for granted and forget to appreciate what God had created for all of us. We should all say, Thank You God!
I know we are all very busy with our daily lives trying to make a living; however, just think for minute, yes one minute and think to yourself without the breath of life, it would be all useless. I know I had a good friend living in Honolulu, Hawaii and he passed away and I flew over to Honolulu and attended his funeral service on Oahu. I remember, one of his sons was very health conscience, watching his diet, exercising and lifting weights at the gym to try to be in perfect condition, but one day as he was exercising, he had a heart attack and he passed away. He died in his late twenty’s, I believe he didn’t have time for God or know God at all, he only believed what his eyes could see, what his ears could hear and what his hands could feel or do. He didn’t attend any church, except on special occasions, such as wedding or funeral services. Those were the only times he went to church.
When he passed away, I prayed that God would forgive him and take care of him. Amen! As you can see, while we are living on this planet, we should take the time or make the time for God, because tomorrow, it may be too late. For some of us, tomorrow may not come to you at all. We cannot procrastinate with God; we must worship and have fellowship with Him now! (TNT) Today, not tomorrow! Amen! Now let’s get back to the beautiful evening in Hawaii.

SATAN
Who is Satan? Satan is known as an adversary or accuser. Satan is the ruler of the fallen angels and is very active against God. However, Satan is not close to or equal to God, nor does he threaten God’s power. Praise the Lord! Satan has lots of names, such as EVIL ONE, THE FATHER OF LIES, THE GOD OF THIS WORLD, PRINCE OF POWER OF THE AIR, TEMPTER, RULER OF THIS WORLD, AN ACCUSER, SERPENT OR DRAGON AND MUCH MORE. Let’s see what is written in (NLT) Rev. 12: 7-9, Then there was war in heaven. Michael and the angels under his command fought the dragon and his angels. 8 And the dragon lost the battle and was forced out of heaven. 9 This great dragon-the ancient serpent called the Devil or Satan; the one deceiving the whole world- was thrown down to earth with all his angels. As you can see, the symbol of the serpent or dragon is Satan or the Devil.
Some people still believe today, the symbol of a serpent or dragon is considered good luck or good fortune. But not to me, I have seen some people put a tattoo on their body of a dragon, without realizing it is a symbol of Satan and sometimes they get into trouble with the demonic spirits. I don’t blame the demonic spirits for approaching that person, because it is their symbol. Don’t you agree with me?
I had an experience where a man has a tattoo on his back and it got him and his family into trouble. He told me, he has a tattoo on his back of a dragon, when he removed his shirt and turned around, there was a vicious looking dragon tattoo. It covered practically the entire area of his back; it has dragon claws ripping part of his flesh with reddish color blood dripping down his back. The dragon was a blue-black color and the eyes were a reddish color with black eyeballs. At that time, I must admit it was something to look at.
Anyway, we all sat in the living room and I asked him several questions, such as when he got the tattoo on his back? When did these problems start? What had happened? He told me, he got his tattoo about two years ago. One weekend, on a Saturday, while he was mowing his lawn on a very hot day, he removed his shirt and continued to mow. When he completed mowing his lawn, he went into his home to drink a glass of water. That night some strange things started to happen, noises and sounds came from within their home, so he and his wife with their children got out of their beds to look around and they saw nothing at their home. His wife and children were very frightened that night.
The next morning he called his mother and explained to her what had happened in their home, so she made some inquiries and someone referred me to them to see if I could help her son and his family. After making the appointment, I went to his home. I prayed and blessed his home, wife, and their children and also the dragon tattoo on his back in Jesus Mighty Name. While I was praying on his forehead, I noticed perspiration was dripping down from his forehead and when I command the demonic spirit to come out of him in Jesus Mighty Name, instantly he fell backwards and a quiet, low groaning sound came out of his mouth. Fortunately he didn’t hit his head on any furniture in his home.
He was lying on the living room floor for approximately 5 to 7 minutes then he got up and I started to explain to him about dragons. I told him it is the symbol of Satan or the Devil and sometimes people may get into trouble. He told me he didn’t know about it. He asked me how he could prevent this from happening again? I told him, if somehow he could remove this tattoo from his back or never remove his shirt outside of his home. I told him, let’s say you remove your shirt and it just so happens that a demonic Spirit was passing by, it may follow you to your home and trouble may start all over again. At that time, his face had a very disappointed look. I pray he will follow my instructions for his family’s sake. Well, so much about the dragon tattoo.
Sometimes, I have received phone calls after the Halloween holiday. People sometimes have problems within their homes. I don’t know, if it was a coincidental or not, because of Halloween or it could have been it was there and they didn’t know about it. I have seen children wearing all kinds of different costumes, such as dragons, witches, goblins, devils, vampires with blood dripping from the mouths and many more weird outfits.
During Halloween, many innocent children walk down the street with flashlights in their hands and also holding a bag for the candies they expect to receive by visiting many homes and saying, “Treat or Trick”. All of these symbols are of Satan or the Devil. Now, I am not saying all those people who are wearing those weird costumes will have problems. NO! It may happen or may not happen to you and your family. However, you could be the unfortunate one, and then problems may arise upon you or your family. For me, I wouldn’t participate at all, but what can I say or do? I only can pray to the Lord to protect each and every one of them against the wiles of the devil, in Jesus Mighty Name! Amen!
The moral of this message is we cannot give Satan any reason for him to come to us.
“REMEMBER THE SYMBOL OF A DRAGON IS SATAN! “
I pray this message will be very informative to you and your family.
