“MY people are destroyed for lack of knowledge” Hosea 4 vs 6. Pastor Ocean Hamandishe, Senior Pastor of Christian Walk Ministries has published a stunning 98-page book which helps you to discover the root of all troubles and tribulations mankind meets in life. In the book, his first, the author bravely exposes the hidden truth about demons.
Said the man of God: “The world has witnessed disasters and acts of evil spirits or demons but is puzzled and wonders where these demons came from. The devil is maximising on ignorance hence many (people) are destroyed.”
This book is a must-read for all people, Christians and Non-Christians, for demons have no respect for age, education, social and economic status, someone’s church, gender or office, colour or creed.
Pastor Hamandishe’s cover prologue summarises the deeply researched and God-inspired book – Identify Your Enemy! Uncovering The Roots And Origin Of Demons – in brief and sweet reverence: Says the Christian Walk Ministries overseer in Zimbabwe and Mozambique, “Some people are failing to interpret the misfortunes, problems, evil, chaos and trouble that are experienced in the world today. If God is not the author of all the above; who then is?”he asks.
Pastor Hamandishe digs deep to unearth and expose the roots and the source of some of the challenges the world is facing.
“One wonders what their (demons) agenda is. What exactly do they want to achieve? Who are these demons? Are they fallen angels or some sort of spirits of the dead or the creation of Lucifer?” the Pastor asks? Thus he took interest in exposing who these demons and their origin are. In doing so the man of God emphasizes as the Bible does, that it is the lack of knowledge that causes confusion, misconception and misinterpretation of the truth of the Word of God concerning the demons and their origin.
“Indeed this is a book for those who are seeking the truth. Only truth can set one free, Jesus said,” writes the man of God.
This writer was honoured and privileged to be asked to edit the book. I do know I did my best, God did the rest.
The following is a full text of the blurb I wrote for the book:
Sometimes the value of reading is not in reading much, but reading wisely. Ocean Hamandishe’s exposure of the hidden truth about demons reminded me of Walter Anderson’s philosophical belief: “Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life.” Editing Pastor Ocean Hamandishe’s book was an honour and privilege. It was a sermon that unlocked the hidden truth about the source of all human suffering. It is a must-read. It brought me face to face with the truth that deepened my knowledge and set me free. That truth is not reserved for Sundays (for Adventists Saturdays) alone. Read this wonderful book… now!
Some Christians arrogantly and stubbornly think truth is only found in their church. Truth is found in the Bible and if prayerfully sought and beseeched, truth will remain true no matter what church, what pastor and what mouth proclaims it. That is what Pastor Hamandishe did in this book: Tell the truth and shame the devil! If religious scholars and theologians dare challenge this truth, Pastor Ocean says, “Let them come forward and use Biblical evidence to dispute my thesis.”
Currently Ocean Hamandishe is overseeing Christian Walk Churches in Zimbabwe and Mozambique. He holds a Diploma in Practical Theology, B.A. in Theology and a Master’s Degree in Christian Counseling. He is an entrepreneur who practically lives what he preaches. He believes in the work of hands as the basic means by which God channels his material blessings to His people. A profound teacher who flows in the gifts of the Holy Spirit, many people are being transformed by his teachings. His message is very prophetic. God uses him to deliver many people from demonic oppression and possessions. His vision from God is to build Christian families to walk in the light of God’s Word for a total blessing that affects the whole being of a person, spiritually, materially and physically.
How does a journalist know and believe all this?
Because journalists and writers are people too, like all of you made in the image of God. Some of them love God and God loves them too. And this one particularly is a humble but devotionally serious seeker and researcher of God’s truth. And though he is a devoted Seventh Day Adventist now, coming as he does from the Church of God of Prophecy, he knows God does not identify His people through churches and Churchism, but through sinlessness won through ceaseless personal effort and prayer, rebirth into a new creature nurtured and covered by His sanctification and grace.
Preachers and evangelists, both men and women of God can speak on pulpits and move mountains; nothing will reach out to the world faster and better than writing. It is men of God like Ocean Hamandishe who have realized only writing can reach out to multitudes quicker and more effectively. Churches must not underestimate the effectiveness of Literature in doing their work. It is because the Bible was written that Christianity easily reached the world at large, every nation and every people.
