Nightmares and the Lakeland Revival — A MUST READ

Here is a post from Charisma Magazine’s forum about bad side effects from the Lakeland revival. This post by EJA under the title: Nightmares and the Lakeland Revival:

A personal friend of mine, very stable mature woman who goes to our church, married with kids and grandkids, very outgoing…went to a Todd Bentley meeting in Orlando back in January. Has hands laid on her by Todd.

Soon after, she began having panic and anxiety attacks. She sought medical help, but the attacks always came back. She started going to the Lakeland meetings. Her symptons worsened. She was an emotional wreck. We, her pastors and her husband did not understand what was going on.

While researching Bentley, really wanting to see if the meetings in Lkeland were truly a revival I came across this from Anderw Strom’s website:

“A Spirit-filled pastor that I know from the UK who has been following Todd Bentley’s ministry closely for some years wrote to me about what he himself has observed since the year 2000:

‘When Todd Bentley conducted a healing meeting in a large charismatic church here in England in 2005, he laid hands on many people who were apparently healed. I know of at least one instance where a pastor’s wife with cancer was prayed for by Todd. Soon afterwards she heard voices in her head telling her to ‘drown herself just like her father did’. The poor woman ended up in a mental hospital, I believe she still has the cancer.’

Things started to add up. I myself, after watching the ‘revival’ several times, started ‘seeing things’ in my home. It seemed as if someone was slowly turning just outside my peripheral vision. when I turned to look..nothing there.

I told my wife who in turn told me she had been experiencing the same thing. She said she was also seeing things ‘scurrying’ across the walls.

This went on for two weeks. In that time I was also having nightmares and weird dreams with ‘angels’ and Bentley himself.

The woman from our church I was telling you about, she too was seeing things in her home.

She was also seeing spider-like creatures scurrying across the wall, but when she would turn to look, they would be gone.

I got a testimony from a minister friend who told me of a woman who engaged in an affair with her 20 something year old personal trainer after coming back from the Lakeland meetings. She broke off her years long marriage to her husband to ‘run-off’ with the young man. According to my minister friend, this woman has been in a state of emotional confusion since the meetings.

Two other ministers I know have been experiencing severe pain in their legs and hips. One man had hip replacement surgery months ago, was recovering really well and without complications. After attending the Lakeland meetings he began experiencing bad pain and having severly demonic nightmares (extremely unusual for this gentleman).

The other fellow, a long time follower and supporter of Bentley has been having difficulty walking (extreme pain) since going to the meetings (I thought this was a ‘healing’ revival?).

I want others who are experiencing these same things AFTER encountering Todd Bentley’s ministry to come forward and share their stories!

Did you hear his comment Saturday night about the ‘angel’ that stood around his pulpit that would heal you and COME INTO YOU if you were up there?

What crazy weirdness is that?
This is lunatic!
