Gospel singer, Chidinma Ekile, has recounted how the devil attempted to take her life during her 40-day prayer and fasting on a mountain.
TheNewsGuru reports that the singer revealed that she went through a long period of prayer and fasting on a mountain. According to her, she spent 40 days in the wilderness, seeking direction from God, and encountered both divine presence and a disturbing moment that tested her faith.
Ekile said she was seeking divine direction and guidance from God during her private moment with God in the bush.
After returning from the U.S., Ekile said she was led to embark on this spiritual journey, where she faced intense spiritual battles and temptations from the enemy.
She added that God performed a spiritual surgery on her, transforming her perspective on life and material possessions.
Through this experience, Chidinma said she gained a deeper understanding of God’s love and mercy, feeling an overwhelming sense of peace and fulfilment that she had never known before.
She explained, “I went to the mountain. I’m not Jesus, but I fasted and prayed for over forty days. I lost weight. The experience was something I never imagined. I came from America and went straight to the bush. I slept on one side till I finished. I cried, I sang, I prayed, and God came to me and spoke to me. It was so real. I never knew He loved me this much.
“I’ve seen it all, and material things don’t move me anymore. God is looking for those who are not perfect or strong people.
“While I was on the mountain, the enemy tried everything to take me before my time. It was more like I was in a theatre. God performed surgery on me, took some things and put in some. He broke me into shreds.
“The enemy tried to take me out of there before my surgery was done. The devil took me to the top of the mountain, to the cliff at night, where everything was dark. And right there at the cliff, the devil asked me to jump. The voice was so strong. The enemy has seen what the Lord is about to do, and he said he needs to abort the mission now.
“I was about to take the jump, and I noticed I was being barricaded, and I couldn’t jump. Something was just there, and I was crying, and somehow my spiritual mum came to get me out. I could have lost my life, but God had mercy.
“He showered me with so much love, the way I have never known it. I feel so much peace inside of me, peace that I never had and cannot buy with money. I was doing all I had to do, but I wasn’t fulfilled. I needed to move, but I didn’t know how. But Jesus is King”.
