I arrived at home 29th of November 2021, after more than 3 years.
Before I went home, I heard the voice of the Lord telling me:
"We'll take you out from here..."
"Trust me."
"There's something you need to accomplish there..."
It's actually the 3rd time I transferred to a different rented house, in the same provincial area in a span of 3 years. And that 3rd house was a sudden event in a spur of the moment. It's October 14, 2021, an unforgettable day since we're celebrating someone's birthday that day. That night of October 14, I couldn't sleep well, I felt restless, I was wondering why. Then, maybe at around midnight I slept unknowingly, and got that nightmare. It's like real, a vivid dream, the setting was the same, the time, and my current set-up, my bed and where I was lying. Many people were holding hoes and rakes outside the house, in the front yard, they were digging the soil around the yard. And they didn't stop, they dug and dug as if going inside the house. Next, men went inside forcefully and wanted us to move out as soon as possible.
Then, I woke up, agitated. It's already past 2am I think, when I heard the many voices, male and female. They wanted me to gather my things up, to arrange my important belongings and pack up immediately. They helped me by teaching me what to do, how to do it and what to do next. After obeying them, I finally finished packing up and they said,
"THAT'S ENOUGH! Just rest for a while, and will just tell you when to go out."
I heard a male Voice speaking, "SHE'S NOW READY LORD."
They're like talking to each other but I cannot see them all.
At around 6am, it's time for me to proceed, to go, to find another house. And a vision flashed in my mind, I saw a certain place, a gate and its color. That Vision leads me there and also by following the guidance of the Voices.
I just rode a tricycle and asked the driver if he knew an available rented place and he directly led me there. I saw a poster and it's indeed a rented house, the one I saw in my Vision, the same color and the same appearance of the gate.
That very day I moved in there with no hassles. The name of the place was "holiday", and I thought maybe it's like my holiday vacation only here. It's indeed real, after 1 month, we moved out and went home again.
The processing period before going home in the province (to a different island, by sea) took only 1 week. There's no available mode of transportation going to my parents home tha time, but I was so eager to go, so I decided to take a different route. I took a ticket going to a different island, and would just transfer to different ports. It's my first time to travel through "Roll-on, Roll-off" mode of transportation by sea. The day of our departure came, it was around 2am when the rented VAN driver came to fetch us. And we arrived at the BUS terminal at around 3am. However my RT PCR test result was delayed due to some reason, so I and my child companion just sat there in the bus terminal and slept the whole night on the passenger chairs.
I felt so at home, no matter where we are, and I never minded the many strangers around me.
Many strangers were walking to and fro in our front, and I was just curious and unintentionally looked straight into their eyes but some gazes were so sharp and it's an unfriendly one.
A male Voice warned me,
"Don't look at their eyes. Beware! They're different from you. Their culture is different."
And that night, I was about to lie down when a male Voice warned me,
"DON'T SLEEP YET. Rise!"
So I sat up and saw on my far right the many passengers at around 2am arriving and climbing to their designated van. I think their designation was Caticlan or Capiz, somewhere in the Visayas region.
Time passed by and that group of passengers went away already. Next, the male Voice said, "YOU CAN SLEEP NOW."
So I just slept there on the passenger chairs and everything went well. But the next day, our 2nd day, still the result didn't come.
I was a little annoyed. We found a nearby small hotel, a few steps away from there and decided to stay there for a moment, to recover and get some sleep. I was just waiting for the result, and anxious until I panicked, on what to do. My budget was running out and I was thinking again to find another route, maybe to buy another ticket, a plane ticket instead. And I'll just spend the rest of my money there. I heard assorted voices pushing me to go out, to find another way, not to wait anymore. I was in a confusing state, lacking sleep and very troubled.
And I prayed and asked the LORD, "LORD PLEASE HELP ME."
Then, I heard his very soothing voice, he calmed my troubled soul and said, "PROCEED TO THE ORIGINAL PLAN."
I was very thankful to the Lord.
So I relaxed myself and took a nap. And later on, I received a call. The test result came and everything's fine. I was so happy and thankful that I waited and obeyed the LORD.
We departed the next morning at around 4am. Our voyage by sea was not an easy one. We transferred port by port. If I was not mistaken, it took 3-4 ports, and transferred to 3-4 different ships as well.
We hardly slept at all and the 2nd to the last ship had no beds to lie down on. I heard the Lord's voice from time to time, and he advised, "DON'T BE AFRAID. WE HAVE MANY PEOPLE HERE TOGETHER WITH YOU. GOOD PEOPLE.:
It's midnight, on our 2nd to the last ship, I cannot control my drowsiness already, and drowsed to sleep. I heard someone was waking me up, it's the LORD's voice, "WAKE UP, MICHAEL! WE ARE HERE."
So I opened my eyes, then I saw that we're arriving at a different port again.
So time to gather ourselves up again and stand along the exit line, preparing ourselves to go down from that ship.
I met a few good people there. The passengers in our bus were only countable, there were very few passengers only, and there were many vacant seats. One guy had helped me to carry my bags, from one ship to another. He accompanied me as well upon arriving, coincidentally we have the same city destination. I didn't see him on the ship but he just appeared out of nowhere when we went down.
We arrived home safe and sound, thanks to the LORD, 29th of November 2021.
After a few days, one night we're having dinner, and I just ate inside my room to continue doing my work online while eating my dinner. And I heard someone was choking, coughing, trying hard to eject something from her mouth. Next, I heard a female voice telling me, "HELP HER."
So, I went outside and saw that it was my Mother. Something stuck on her throat, maybe it's the fishbone. I walked towards her and just touched her throat awkwardly and left immediately, I was not sure if she saw me or if she felt my hands.
Then, she called her 2 little grandkids and told them to touch her throat. After a few minutes, she felt okay. The thorn-like thing inside her throat was gone.
And she told us, "I'm alright now! I felt fine after the little kids touched me. Maybe because they were still innocents."
I just fell silent, agreeing with her statements, commenting nothing, awkwardly smiling.
The next week, I was invited to visit a distant relative on my mother's side. However, my visit was a failure, she was not there. Her place at that time was situated in a remote area. A female Voice had warned me not to take any pictures nor make any unnecessary noise in that kind of place. However, I forgot and spoke excitedly, "OH, THERE'S A RIVER DOWN THERE!" I said merrily, standing on the top of the small hill.
We visited other relatives of ours and chatted for a short time only, it's lunch time. And suddenly they got another visitor and we just went home. Upon our arrival in the house, I heard the Lord's Voice, he was sad, and said these words, "IT'S AN INSULT TO ME."
I didn't understand at that time why he's insulted. Next, I was feeling not good, I got a little headache. I thought it's due to
the heat of the sun only. So I lie down. However, night came, I was about to sleep when I felt nauseous, a terrible drowsiness. I was trying to help myself up, applying my reserved ointments with me as usual.
I heard a female Voice saying, "CALL YOUR FATHER. IT'S NOT GOOD ANYMORE."
So I prayed and said, "FATHER PLEASE HELP ME."
I was praying and together applying the white flower on my head and on some part of me. And later on, I felt a little relieved and slept.
The next morning, I was a bit weak, and just stayed still inside the house. But I felt well afterwards, the next day. My father in the house also helped me, he knew some traditional healing, by praying over me, by laying his hands over my head.
Typhoon Odette suddenly came the following week. I think it's December 16, 2021. It's around 8pm, there's no typhoon yet, when I heard the voices giving me a warning, "WAG KANG MATATAKOT MAMAYA HA!"
And the Lord's voice, "TRUST ME."
I didn't worry any longer and felt calm. However, I didn't expect that the typhoon would be very strong, it's my first time to experience it, that very strong wind. Our house was made of wood, and light materials only with some concrete structures on some parts.
The banging of our rooftop was very loud and my windows in the room were flapping here and there noisily. I trusted the Lord and He was always right, we were safe and sound despite the strong wind.
I heard female voices crying that night pleading, "MICHAEL, MAKE IT STOP. THE WIND!"
And I replied in my mind, "What will I do?How to stop it?" So I just wrote "Stop the wind" on my twitter.
But I heard the AUTHORITATIVE VOICE of the FATHER saying in a stern voice, "MY WILL BE DONE, NOT YOUR WILL!"
So the strong wind went on, and stopped after a few hours but it went back again, from a different direction this time. It was like they're rotating, the wind's changing direction from time to time. The coconut tree near my window broke apart, and it splitted into 3 parts. The 2nd part (the trunk) fell directly above my room's rooftop, it acted as a heavy weight, thus it wasn't blown by the wind. It helped my rooftop.
Then, the top part with many coconut fruits fell directly on our sala's rooftop where my little niece was lying. The coconuts fell scattering through our floor, and luckily the little kid wasn't hurt. We ate some of them the next morning, it was so many, free flowing young coconut
fruits.
As daylight came, the wind slowly faded away. My sister's small house, like a kubo one, was miraculously fine. The scene was astounding, it's so cute seeing the banana leaves and stems as if they're hugging the house rooftop. Their rooftop was not blown away by the wind due to the hugs of the banana leaves and stems, unlike the situation from our neighbors.
It's a total black out the following night, with no electricity in the whole region. But the moon was shining bright and it served as the light of everyone.
But, it was the evening of December 19, 2021, the moon suddenly turned red at around 6pm and I saw a strange formation behind it, like two beasts facing each other and after a few minutes, the figure scattered. Next, there's a sudden fire explosion in our next neighborhood, a little far away from us.
My epileptic brother said this earlier, "Anne take a picture of the moon, it turns red."
Then, he walked to and fro, so restless. And he said something strange out of nowhere, "IT'S TIME. IT'S TIME TO GO."
He's uttering something, that it was a sign.
After dinner, we were about to sleep when my epileptic brother was possessed by something, like a strange spirit. He was talking out loud, nonsense words, nonsense things. I didn't leave my room unless asked or told. My mother called a certain group, a religious sect who's using the Bible too and they're like SPIRITISTS based on the story of my mother and epileptic brother. They joined that group a few months ago though I told them not to, many times. That group was possessed by another Spirit according to them and would teach them to open the Bible and would read out loud a certain passage. She invited them inside the house to help my brother, I was just lying down inside my tent (in my room) and wanted to sleep already. I made sure I won't disturb them and would like to observe them only.
I heard a male voice telling this, "PROTECT HER!"
They're chanting a prayer, opening the bible and uttering something repetitively. I heard someone knocking on my door after a few minutes but I didn't answer it because I knew their sect was still there.
A male Voice had advised me, "DON'T GO OUT. Don't touch him!"
Then they left afterwards, but my brother was still the same. He wanted to run away outside, he's like restless and not in his ordinary mind. It's already very dark. He's uttering many nonsense words.
Then, my mother knocked again, and called me, "Anne, have mercy on him, please help your brother."
I opened the door and told her, "Mother, I was told not to touch him. I cannot do it."
Then I went back. My brother was now shouting and it's so scandalous to our neighbors. He's my younger brother, the 7th.
While sitting up inside my tent, I told them this in a clear voice, "LET HIM GO. Don't stop him. Only himself could resolve it."
Because he wanted to go out.
So my brother answered as well, "Mother, don't you want to listen to Anne. She said you need to let me go. It will end soon. However, you're always stopping me."
Our conversation was so repetitive, I told them to let go of him but they were always hindering his path so it was never ending. My brother was following my order instantly. He didn't listen to anyone except me. He's like an obedient child following my order.
So the Lord's voice told me, "Okay go ahead. Help him."
So I went out. He was standing and wanted to go outside.
And I told him instantly, "Sleep, Lie down!"
And he followed too.
"Close your eyes, Clear your mind." And he did it as well.
The Lord said, "WATCH HIM SLEEP."
So I watched him sleep, touching him from time to time. However he suddenly spoke loudly, twisting his body abnormally and as if he's chatting with someone, he's talking to someone unknown.
I told him, "Lower your voice". So he did it as well.
But it's nonstop, He's shouting this, "FATHER, FORGIVE ME! FATHER"
So I touched him and said strange words as if I am talking to him like a Father, "That's alright my child, I forgive you."
Then, I realized, and came to my senses, and told to myself, 'Why am I referring to him as a child, he was my brother.'
I watched him sleep and just ordering him to relax, but still the scenario was so repetitive: he will talk while sleeping, opening his mouth very wide as if something was going out from his body (lifting her upper body at the same time automatically), then he will talk to his side, giggling silently as if someone was there.
And one of his words was, "Let's love one another." "We'll go to heaven, it's joyful there."
I told my family members to just rest and I'll be the one who will watch him.
However, I had no idea that my mother invited their sect again. I was disappointed. I told them,
"Go back, I'm already in charge here."
Within myself, I was so disappointed with my mother why they lack faith and why they chose to believe other people than me. She asked me to help them but then she asked for help from others.
I stopped them all so they went away. My mother was disappointed and I felt that she's angry with me.
My brother was manageable and just obeying my order but then, a voice said, "LEAVE HIM NOW."
So I went back to my room again at around 4am. I wanted to get a little sleep. But then, it turned out that my brother went outside and my mother and other 2 brothers followed him too. He shouted along the river where we always bathed and washed our clothes.
Then as he returned back, I went out too and helped them again. I boiled water and made ginger tea. I gave him a cup too. He drank it too, following me, imitating me but still I saw him differently, his mouth was twisting, as if something was inside of him. And he didn't talk, he just answered me, in one word and kept on nodding. It's like something had stuck inside him, inside his throat that he kept on ejecting it, trying hard but to no avail. I put salt inside the hot water and he just drank it as well.
It was like that, we had no sleep at all. The moon was shining brightly and there's still no power at that time. I just made a fire outside through the dark night. And I heard a female voice saying, "ONE BRAVE SOUL."
I went to my room again, and my brother insisted this at around 6 am maybe,
"ANNE told you not to stop me. But you didn't listen. oh Anne oh... they didn't listen!"
He's blaming them for stopping him and according to him it supposedly ended the soonest if they just followed me.
My mother seemed irritated.
They finally gave up and let them go.
And a voice said to me, " FORGIVE THEM, IF THEY WILL BLAME YOU AFTERWARDS. Effective today, move out from this house. We'll help you..."
Before that day, the Lord was always telling me to trust him, that they will find another home that has power so that I could work online.
I went out to talk to my family, but the scene was not good.
My mother, youngest 9th brother, elder sister, elder brother were all there. And they were in a bad mood, in an angry mood.
And it was like they're blaming me for something, why I told them to let go of my brother, why I stopped the help they called yesternight.
They all misinterpreted me, and I told them, "IT'S THE WILL OF THE FATHER."
"You cannot stop anything if it's the will of GOD. He suffered already. He needed rest."
And my mother was angry and said, "So you are happy if he'll die?!"
I was agitated and troubled, so I walked away, but before I walked out I told them, "Maybe I'll go back to Manila, to work these days."
But they didn't mind it as if they heard nothing. They all continue mumbling negative words, blah blah, I cannot hear it anymore. I kept my ears shut.
So I hurriedly prepared and packed my things. I brought little things only and texted anyone. I was in a confusing mood on who to text and where to go. I texted 2 people, and the first who replied was one of my younger brothers too. My text message got mixed up, I thought it's a female friend of mine. He just texted me the directions to go there since my phone was low battery already, at around 10% maybe, I only charged it through a solar lamp.
I bade goodbye to my elder brother and told him I will find a house for me to work again.
As I went outside, my mother was cleaning the front yard with that angry face, I told her, "Mother, I'll go now!" But she didn't bother to look up and didn't speak to me so I just went away.
Instantly, we went to my other younger brother (more than 1 hour travel by bus) and he helped me in finding a rented house.
That day December 20, 2021 was an unforgettable day for me. We had found a rented house, and the lady owner was so kind, a retired teacher. She just let us borrow their beddings and helped me arrange all things in that studio type room. She was very generous and gave us food as well. Even on the 25th day and 31st day of December, she gave us some of the foods they had on their table as well. I was so grateful to her and felt happy because of her good heart.
The next day, the thing I did backfired on me. It's the middle of the night, I was dreaming, a nightmare of my brother and I wanted to wake up and I forced myself to open my eyes. I held my eyes through my 2 hands because I felt something not good by forcing myself to wake up. I sat up and moved my body, wiggling it and I totally opened my eyes after a few struggles. But the effect was not good. My eyes seemed bulging on the other side. It became small. I felt a little pain and discomfort.
And the Lord said, "It did BACKFIRE on you."
"I will help you. Don't touch your eyes. Avoid touching it for a while."
I did follow him and it healed after a few days.
I realized I should not touch anyone. The voices had always warned me, "Don't touch other people, don't let them touch you."
And this time, I learned my lesson. It backfired on me.
And lately the voices told me, "You are not born to become a FAITH HEALER. You're born to FIGHT, you're a warrior!"
I received the news after a few days (that month of December, before 25th) and heard that my younger brother went back home after I went away. He was okay and felt better already, and had that normal epilepsy attack from time to time, it's inborn maybe. I just went home afterwards through the advice of the Lord to get my other things. I just greeted them as a civilized person, like nothing had happened
ever, and gave them my Christmas gifts (and the gifts bought by my other brother as well) and went inside my room to pack one baggage only. Afterwards, the Lord said, "IT'S ENOUGH. TIME TO GO NOW."
As I went outside, only my younger brother was there, and as usual he would ask for an internet load like a kid.
I was in a hurry and just obeyed the LORD's instructions every time.
I stayed there in that rented house from December to March 13, 2022 only, then I moved out again. I proceeded again to another journey with the LORD's guidance and help.
