kotai

Dad was talking about kotai. Fortress in India. Budda kotai, kali kotai, ramar kotai, tirupati kotai, and that we like Joshua and the Israelites need to walk around these with fervor till it breaks down. And that there will be a day when it will all come tumbling down and nobody  will even remember the name of these forts. 

He also said we should never get satisfied with our life and stop praying around these fortresses. He talked about his experience 30 years back, when while sleeping at night he saw a kali devil at his feet begging not to pray and drive them out. It was pleading not to drive them out. when dad shouted the name of Jesus, it jumped and ran away, he still remembers the dogs barking in that area when it ran away. 

This incident gave him a confidence that ofcource we have the God given authority and the devil in fact trembles when we pray. This encourages him to pray more. 

He also said that this work of praying around the fort is not work of 1 man, but a call for all of us, our future generation, till all the idol forts come tumbling down. The work is not done.

He also remembered Emil , Patrick uncle, Kamalesan uncle who started and encouraged this years back and that though they are not here, they are still praying and joining with us in this prayer.
