I preached fairly often in a Mexican church where sin and unhappiness had occurred in the pastor’s family and church. The hurt, pain, suffering and consequences of sin had become lodged in the walls; they emanated despair, unhappiness and a sense of evil to all those who entered. The pastor and I, and later the pastor alone, spent a year casting those spirit things out of the walls. During that time, he also anointed the building everywhere with oil, following each anointing with prayer. It took an entire year before people could enter the building without feeling sad, uncomfortable, etc. The attacks and the sin that had occurred left a residue. We also anointed the people and preached healing during the year. After every service, the people would come forward and cry. A year later they were well—healed—and the pastor stopped the healing services. Healthy life resumed. He began to minister to the congregation in other ways.
