“I thought I was losing my mind… but it was deeper than that.”

In this raw and unfiltered episode, Elijah shares his powerful testimony of being hospitalized for 7 days after a terrifying encounter with the demonic. What appeared to be a mental breakdown was actually spiritual warfare in full effect.

This isn’t just about mental health. It’s about the battle for identity, purpose, and destiny when God begins to call you out of darkness and into alignment with His will.

⚠️ This episode is a warning, a revelation, and proof that when you start walking in purpose, the enemy gets nervous. But even then—God gets the final say.
