January 2020

“Melo Cadenza” is an excellent musician. He has recorded four (or more) albums in Hollywood California and his musical ability has earned him recognition in the industry. He’s presently recording with two musical groups in two different genres, travels across the country to open for bands you and I hear on the radio today and has been invited to record as a studio musician on other projects.  When Melo isn’t an up-and-coming musician, he’s a husband, a father, has a normal job doing normal things, has a very real drinking problem and does not know Jesus. 

During our last conversation Melo describes his last trip to Hollywood to record his latest album with one of his bands.  During this sixteen day stay, he attends a party which includes big name musicians, music producers, porn stars, and actors.  He describes how a very normal conversation suddenly turns into a business proposition.  He describes how a deal was offered to him and his band and how theistic Satanism is discussed casually.  He tells me how the deal is presented to him in a two-hour conversation; how he would pledge allegiance to Satan, partake in sexual perversion, partake in sacrifice (human/other), blood rituals and “do what he was told [by those above him].”  He is told, “The largest majority of the music industry are all part of this hidden culture” as if this information would leverage the deal and intrigue him into the industry.  Melo knows Who I believe in (I have witnessed to him before) and trusts me, to see what I think about these things.  Everything presented to Melo is the opposite of Jesus and is in direct blasphemy against God. After an hour or more of conversation Melo says, “I hear all that, but I still need some evidence of a God to believe.”   My response, “How much more evidence do you need?  You have been presented with direct evidence of the adversary of Jesus Christ.  By this, you know Jesus is real.”  He agrees. Now that this machine has presented its deal to Melo, the movers will send demons to speak into his conscience on its behalf – to reel him in.

February 2020

Melo Cadenza has been in contact with the ones who offer him a “Deal” in Hollywood California.  Melo claims to be adamantly against the idea of human sacrifice.  So, the ones soliciting his initiation have given him other “opportunities” to get what he wants and still get a deal.  At the lowest level he will need to proclaim that “…modern Christianity and organized religion is the root of hatred in the world.  If I recognize that, I would be immediately accepted into the ‘Business.’”  This is denying Jesus BTW!  He continues “Moving beyond that we are told there are no sexual boundaries.  We are told that we may embark on sexual experiences with whomever we’d like, regardless of legal status, i.e. marriage.  We are also supposed to allow others to engage in sexual relationships with our wives.”  He went on to explain “The level beyond that would be engaging in ritualistic events like orgies and sacrifice, in its most extreme circumstances.  If we deny the request, we could be eliminated.”  Remember, Melo’s not Christian. I believe he’s considering the deal, he’s just not interested in the human sacrifice part!!!  He is trying to justify this deal.  I don’t think he cares so much about Jesus, but the moral laws God wrote on Melo’s heart are kicking in.  At first I’m thinking, “He is being recruited hard.”  But then I realize, “No! He is chasing this thing, trying to validate it in his life.  He is truly considering this!” 

March 2020

After a month or so after Melo’s proposal, we speak again on the phone.  Both he and his wife are definitely not interested in making a deal with the devil for a career in Hollywood.  Amen?  His decision is predicated on the fact that he could be called to human sacrifice (child).  He has children and this appalls him. Well, he knows Satan is real now because he would have to deny Jesus Christ during his inauguration into the Hollywood “family.”  This is good news.

June 2020

Wonderful how Jesus works.  Melo Cadenza is approached by a local pastor about using his talents in a ministry worship environment, saying that he got Melo’s name from the internet.  At first I’m intrigued, because this would give Melo another person (pastor) to witness to him about the person of Jesus Christ, because – as I read the Bible – the worship experience is only for those who belong to Kingdom of God.  Why would pagans, atheists, agnostics, witches and Satanists (sub-categories of unbelievers) all be allowed into the same holy worship experience set aside for the saints to worship their perfect God?  In the OT, gentiles aren’t invited.  In the early 1^st century church, outsiders aren’t invited.  Jesus went to them.  That’s what evangelism is!!!  Paul built churches and preached to non-believers outside the walls of it.  The worship experience is sacred!  The modern church has it all wrong…Sorry. 

After initially being intrigued, I quickly become disenchanted.  Even though Melo admits to this pastor that he’s not a Christian, the pastor insists that he comes on board and brings others who know how to play instruments, adding that Melo would be the worship leader.  I’m infuriated.  What kind of pastor is this? He would rather lessen the holiness of worshiping God almighty with non-believers in a concert-style worship model than having appropriate worship.  This is all in the name of the modern church-growth movement, which I am not a fan of as you can see. 

Melo is neither impressed with this offer, nor does he feel as if he belonged in this environment.  He says he feels as if the pastor is trying to build a business, telling me the pastor straight-up told him that his church needs to increase attendance.  His idea of church growth is through tithes and offering as opposed to souls!  The mentality of this type of pastor will always justify bringing unsaved people into the worship experience by saying the experience might bring them to Salvation through Jesus. This pastor has already admitted that it’s really about the tithes and offerings.

Melo’s responses allows me to understand that non-believers aren’t to be snookered by a dog and pony show.  It turns them off!  This may be hard for a Christian to digest, but perhaps the modern church has been doing it all wrong.  Our job is not to evangelize inside of the church walls, but outside.  Read here, where Jesus is going through the cities and villages, teaching, giving the gospel, healing, and says to His disciples “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.”  We don’t need more pulpit pastors.  We need more evangelical believers to grow the kingdom (souls)! 

On the other hand and what I find to be extremely humorous is that I gained more credibility with Melo as a result of his engagement with this foolish pastor.  Melo believes the Jesus I present is a more accurate depiction of what he believes Jesus should be; more so than a capitalist, business growing Jesus who just wants to put butts-in-seats for the purpose of “growing” a church.  

October 2020

Melo and I have continue to speak over the phone these past couple months, during Covid. Melo confides in me that his wife has begun to give Tarot Card readings as a form of income.  Upon further discussion I understand that she also began to study and work under Reiki Healing with a mention of ascended masters.  They came over to visit us recently and we used the opportunity to catch-up, share time with our friends, and do what we could do to push the conversation of Christ a little further.  We meet for a while as two families, then we split – me with him and my wife with his.  Melo is bound with a smorgasbord of religious understandings; mostly deriving from far eastern mysticism. 

As Melo and I progress in discussion, he reveals his biggest issue with Jesus is…control!  He would have to give up a portion of control over his life to follow Jesus (Biblically, not as most Christian do.  He understands this).  It is also a blessing in disguise that he didn’t sign a deal with the devil for this same reason (among others). Despite the couple’s exposure and experience with the supernatural through her religious practice (Tarot and Reiki), he will not admit that there is a possibility of it getting out of control.  Coincidently, he also has a problem with the idea of giving Jesus control over his life – he only considers Jesus to be one of many “prophets”.  Melo does not believe Tarot and Reiki propose a threat for his family. 

December 2020

“Melo Cadenza” and I haven’t spoken in a while; you know, Covid 19 and everything.  Yesterday we speak on the phone for about an hour and a half. He contacts me originally in regard to a “surprising text” he reads in the Bible (Ezekiel 23:20). That’s right, he’s been reading the Bible!!!!  His wife – the practitioner of necromancy – has been giving him a hard time concerning his questions about Jesus.  Anyway, he reads me the verse and says “I read this, and I’m like WTF?”  Lol!  The interpretation of this chapter leads us back into the conversation of Salvation, because the daughters spoken of in this chapter “became Mine” God says in the text.  “Became Mine” leads us back into the nature of God and our need for forgiveness.  When we finish the conversation, he’s been crying for about 5 minutes or more. I know the Holy Spirit’s touching his heart in the spiritual realm and giving me the words to help do so in the natural. It’s an amazing couple of moments. At the end I ask him a closing question (for all you salespersons out there).  He humbly denies and doesn’t accept Jesus.

January 2021

I’m studying in Deuteronomy two days ago and something I really stands out to me.  It’s not like I haven’t read this before and the theme is throughout the Bible, but it really hits me.  As I’m thinking about the text “Melo Cadenza’s” wife comes to mind.  I let the thought of her go, but then Jesus tells me directly, “Send that scripture to Melo.”  I don’t want to send it for reason’s I’ll keep to myself and ask “Send it for what?”  He replies, “A warning.”  Wow.  So, I get over myself and send him a message highlighting Deuteronomy 18:9-20.  He calls me back this afternoon, but I can’t take the call.  When I call him back, he doesn’t pick-up the phone.  I believe Jesus is making another move toward Melo Cadenza. 

February 2021

Last month the Holy Spirit gives me a message to give Melo concerning his wife and her practices. Now their story is back on the front burner.  Their relationship has reached a point of turmoil, his alcohol abuse is at the forefront, their family is in jeopardy, and I learn that their views on what she practices don’t necessarily agree. 

Melo’s wife calls me concerning the issues they’re going through in their marriage.  We’ll call her the “Meadow Dweller.”  I’m short and brief with Meadow, trying not to indulge in any real conversation without both present…I’m not going there!  After this brief engagement, our discussion switches to spiritual subject matter.  Meadow’s trying to place our belief systems into the same camp, but I don’t let that stand. I make a hard statement pointing out the differences between our belief systems, to which she becomes offended.  She responds, “Who’s told you what I believe in and what is it I do that you think I am so bad?”  I realize she’s not understanding my position and I have to repackage my ideas to her.  I tell her I see what she posts on Facebook, who she shares information with, and that I know where that stuff stands with the God I serve. 

I then make a very direct statement about who God is. I’m both amazed and spooked at her responce, “I know you’re the real deal Troy.  When you said that, my hairs stood-up on my arms.  There are very few who walk the walk and talk the talk, but you are one who does, and I’ve known this for a long time.  You are in my prayers.  You are in my soul family.  I pray for you and your family all the time.”  To this I sharply rebuked her prayers (to myself) and cancelled any soul family memberships (Lol) and their assignments released to my family as a result of her so-called good intent.  She follows with stating who she prays to, “I pray to god, or Jesus, or Buddha, or whoever you want to call it.”  She tells me, “I talk to god and he speaks to me” implying she hears the voice of God; which is a lie, because she is listening to the voice of liars. 

To her, the goal of life is love – many lower-level witches believe this.  I just had a witch challenge another story on this website because there are so many variations of practicing witches, some of which don’t even classify themselves as witches.  The truth is, they all fall under the umbrella of witchcraft regardless of how white or dark they are, natural or theistic, loving or hateful, etc.   The love she is talking about is a self-nurturing, worldly love, a love of the world and all things in it.  1 John 2:15-17 speaks sternly against this kind of love. 

We achieve the best result – in my mind – an agreement that we need to speak about these conflicting issues in person.  We have agreed to meet, after this issue between her and her husband is resolved – one way or the other, and talk more specifically about our perceptions of truth and where those ideas originate.  I am excited about our future discussion.  I love sharing Jesus’ with witches. 

February 2021

Melo’s wife left him.  I spent five hours with him yesterday.  I learned a lot, but I am not going to write all that down.  What I will tell you is this, per his testimony, his wife totally identifies as a witch and is homeschooling their children to be witches as they also openly identify themselves as witches too.  Melo does not agree with his wife’s lifestyle choices, especially the choice to leave him.  As far as the marriage is concerned, they have both made mistakes which could easily be forgiven and repaired.  However, the spiritual choices they’ve made are turning out to be devastating.  As we talk about the spiritual issues, Melo can see the “atmospheric shift” in his household as he retroactively scans the progression of Meadow’s maturation into her craft.  As he speaks to me about how she navigates the break-up up to this point, I can see how she’s being influenced by her “Soul Family,” of whom she holds in high esteem; unfortunately, their nature is not to reciprocate. They don’t truly care for her or her family. 

The Holy Spirit downloads to me, and I tell him that he could just give-up and continue drinking or go on a “Rescue Mission.”  Here is the mission plan The Spirit gives me and I share with Melo: “You need to get right with Me and begin battling for your wife and children in the spirit.  As a result of this, your wife would come to Me and your children would follow.  Then you would restore your family.”  Unfortunately Melo is not yet ready to repent and follow Jesus. 

This morning I follow-up with Melo.  He tells me he sees how Meadow has been positioning herself for their break-up for a while now.  He has a gig in a major city tonight and another more locally tomorrow night.  He asks if I might be available to speak to him on Sunday after he has the chance to calm down again.  Of course I do. 

March 2021

I have been meeting and talking with Melo for three weeks now and he’s devastated about losing his family.  The whole story doesn’t jibe. Somehow Meadow Dweller’s made it so her husband Melo cannot see their children or contact her for 365 days. I find this strange.  Meadow’s shut-down everyone around her who has access to him or who could act as an intermediary for him to his children.  He’s in severe emotional distress.  What the Holy Spirit is telling me is that Jesus is going to use this separation to work-on Melo.  Melo would never understand this.   

Meadow is keeping the children from him somehow which doesn’t seem legally possible.  Even if there were domestic abuse a father should be able to see his children with supervision.  I am sensing that there’s spiritual foul play happening here.  Melo will complain about the injustice of the situation while defending her injustice.  I would normally never get involved in this argument, but Melo has reached-out for help and Jesus has approved my involvement.  That, to me, means there are spiritual implications running in the background.

Yesterday I notice crows in the trees around my house. Ordinarily no big deal but my spirit senses that they are there for nefarious purpose.  How do crows relate to this story?  I’d contacted Meadow earlier that day regarding a request she’d made of me weeks ago.  She responds positively.  I then move into questions regarding Melo and the children.  She goes away quickly and I haven’t heard from her since.  Later that day, the crows appear in my yard.  I pray against the crows and oddly enough they leave as soon as I start praying against them. My prayer is against being spied on in the spirit, through an animal spirit, or through any means of astral projection (remote viewing, psychic travel, etc.) by an evil or human spirit.  This morning I text Melo to see if Meadow has ever mentioned or spoken to him about astral projection, remote viewing, etc. His response was “All the time.”

I believe we may be entering a time of spiritual battle for the restoration of this family.  All of this is sanctioned by Jesus of course, because He cares about the family and about the souls of these two lost people and their two little ones. 

March 2021

On Melo’s behalf, I text Meadow and offered to be a liaison between her and Melo for the sake of him seeing/speaking to their children.  Her reply was direct, manufactured, and venomous.  By it, I know she intends harm to her husband and the news upsets him as he exits the conversation quickly.  Later I text Melo suggesting a sit-down between the two of us.  He accepts, so I leave my home to travel to where he lives perceiving this sit-down as another opportunity to share Jesus.  We spend four and a half hours together; first consoling, listening, just being friends, then coming into agreement.  The opportunity opens-up and I’m able to interject Jesus and Salvation into the conversation at the appropriate time. Every angle I approach is shot-down with “I don’t understand what you are saying,” “You are not speaking clearly to me,” or “You are not telling me how to do that.”  I know I’m presenting my thoughts clearly, he’s just having a hard time receiving it. 

Before I go any further, I want to explain what Jesus has been doing with me regarding Melo Cadenza.  Melo and I go back a few years.  A few years ago, I’m living in Baltimore, Md. and Melo calls me because Meadow had left him.  He’d been drinking and the conversation leads to him accepting Jesus Christ.  I was so excited, didn’t live very close to him and was unable to follow-up with his decision.  When I finally get the chance to speak to him again, it’s as if nothing ever happened, and he’s talking the same ole junk so I consider his prayer a false conversion. 

About a week before the meeting I mention above, Jesus begins to “push” me about the “salvation phone call” a few years ago.  I don’t understand where this is going, but I start to understand that it’s important to Jesus.  This “push” leaves me thinking, “Could Melo’s conversion a few years ago be valid? This is not conventional,” I’m thinking.  I run the scenario by a solid mature believer I trust, and I receive his conclusion that “He’s not a Christian.”  On the other hand, Jesus is still not allowing that to rest with me.  Melo also confides in me that he’s been praying himself to sleep every night, “One night to God, the next night to Jesus” and so on.  Interesting. 

Back to our meeting.  I keep digging and finally get to the bottom of his objections, Melo Cadenza has a problem with Christians.  He doesn’t believe he’s good enough to be a Christian and, even if he is, he doesn’t really know if he wants to be one.  The problem is not with Jesus, it’s with Christians.  We overcome this objection and Jesus “pushed” me again on the “Salvation phone call.”   This is important.  I ask Melo “What happened during that phone call?  Did you feel anything during that prayer?”  Not only did Melo remember what happened, he reminded me of the exact night and date of that phone call.  He tells me “It was seven years ago, Troy,” and explains a very dramatic experience that includes an overwhelming warmness overtaking him with a distinct feeling of extreme peace afterwards.  “But the next day,” he describes “I felt nothing.”  When he describes his experience I’m overwhelmed, because my experience was very similar to his.  I suddenly understand why Jesus is “pushing” me about; Melo got saved, but he didn’t understand his position with Jesus.  He received the Holy Spirit but went back to his former life the next morning.  That’s all he knew! He didn’t accept Jesus in a church, get attached to a small group, or have access to discipleship.

I didn’t tell him he was saved; I was afraid too.  I was being careful, not to lead him into a false idea of relationship incase I was wrong…but I don’t believe I am!  I explain my salvation experience, and the “Rescue Mission” Jesus gives me for him and his family.  He asks “How do I know Troy?  Look, I was drunk, I’ve…[done this and that, etc].”  As he’s describing who he wasn’t, Jesus gives me his answer, “Tonight, as you are praying yourself to sleep, ask Jesus Himself if what happened to you seven years ago was real or not.  I think He’s going to let you know one way or the other.” 

The next day I received a text from Melo.  Here is the conversation:

• Melo: “I did what I told you I was going to do last night.”
• Me: “Okay.  What did He say?”
• Melo: “He said nothing…but I felt like someone or something wrapped their arms around me.  It was comforting.  That was a first for me.”
• Me: “That’s awesome.  I feel that He wants you to keep reaching out to Him.”  [followed by Matthew 7:7-8]
• Me: “Rescue mission.  You’re first.”

Was Melo saved seven years ago?  I really believe he was! We will soon see.  He’s agreed to meet with me one night a week to learn his identity and who Jesus really is.  This is exciting! 

March 2021

Melo agreed to begin meeting to discuss Jesus.  Melo is accepting the “Rescue Mission,” and believes that he has to be “first” – as Jesus told me – before his wife and children can follow suit, so there is a chance for his family to be redeemed. 

Jesus gives me a couple points of emphasis to hit during our meeting: “Who am I (Jesus)?” and “Who is Melo?”  Jesus is brilliant (of course) because Melo now realizes that he isn’t who he believed he was and he certainly hasn’t known who Jesus is. 

We spend around four hours together and his rhetoric is changing.  He has moved from having a prideful, pompous opinion of himself to being humiliated in his current situation and self-realizations.  Now, he wants to learn.  We speak more about his wife’s craft and how Melo is destroyed at the thought that his own children refer to themselves as a witch and a warlock.  Meadow’s own mother has confided in Melo & Meadow that she was visited by a very vivid shadow while wide awake in the evening, who’s eyes were flaming with fire as it perched on the end of her bed and spread its wings over her.  Meadow is plagued by the traumatic past of her upbringing and carries the demons attached as a result of her forefathers. 

Meadow has had demonic visions and has participated in astral projection for years, which is illegal without the sanction of God Himself (Ezekiel, Isaiah, John, Paul, etc).  For a human spirit to leave the body and go into another reality, that spirit must have an escort.  To do this without the sanction of God, one must make an agreement (contract, covenant) with another spirit from that realm; demonic.  Meadow has made many trips by astral projection, soul travel, remote viewing, whatever you want to call it, and is in league with demonic entities she perceives as good.  This along with the experience of being presented with the Theistic Satanism “deal” by the music industry has made Melo super sensitive to the understanding of the supernatural and, even more specifically, the understanding that Jesus is real.  Amen!

Melo and I read the Bible, learning who Jesus is and establishing a Biblical plan of attack.  I’m able to pray against a demonic stronghold while we’re together and something clicks in his mind as a result of our conversation. He repents of certain things which happened during his life.  Hallelujah!

April 2021

Melo Cadenza keeps telling me “I need a sign.  I need a sign.” Two nights ago, I ask Melo “What kind of sign you need?” I ask him this because I keep answering all his questions but he keeps claiming “I don’t understand” or “I can’t see what you’re saying.”  His response is as unclear to me as my explanation was to him.

Once alone I start praying and ask Jesus “Will you give him a sign?”  I hear Jesus say, “I will give him the sign he’s asking for.”   I’m amazed and start texting the message out for Melo, but I add “Keep doing what you’re doing.  Keep seeking Me.”  I don’t know why I did it.  I think I add it because it makes the message sound clear.  Then I hear “No.”  So, I ask Jesus if He wants me to not send the message.  I hear nothing but feel as if the message is no good…so I erase it.  A couple seconds later I hear the message again, “I will give him the sign he’s asking for.”  I’m frustrated, so I write Jesus’ message only and pressed send. 

Melo immediately text me back, “I’m in tears right now.  The sign I’ve been praying for is that my children will call me on Easter.  You have no idea how good this makes me feel.”  I got nervous. “What if Meadow doesn’t let the kids call?” I say to myself.  “He won’t believe Jesus is who He says He is,” I’m thinking.  But in the back of my mind, I’m also thinking, “Maybe I’m not hearing what I think I hear.  What if I mess this thing up?”  I immediately shake that off and let the responsibility lay in the lap of Jesus.  Who am I to take possession of these messages?  They have nothing to do with me and everything to do with Jesus and Melo.  Rescue Mission!

Jesus is going to work through Meadow’s witchcraft, overcome the demonic influences in her mind, conquer her spite, and overcome her keeping the children from him.  Jesus can do all things.  What was I worried about?  It’s a done deal.

Just before I write this entry, I text Melo and ask him, “What will you do if He answers your prayer specifically?”  He responded, “I’ve asked him for a few things over my lifetime and I’ve never had a prayer answered.  If my kids call me on Easter, there will be no doubt that it was God’s doing.  It’s not possible that [Meadow] would let them call me.  If she does, that means God spoke to her, and he answered my prayer.  There would be no way to interpret that any other way.” 

April 2021

Easter came and went and no call from Melo’s children.  To be honest I was discouraged that it didn’t happen.  I was praying about it and felt as if Jesus was subtly letting me know that the kids calling on Easter wasn’t exactly what He was telling me by saying “I will give him the sign he’s asking for.”  I was going to document this in this journal, but I kept pushing it off.

Today is three days after Easter 2021.  I’ve spoken with Melo a couple times about the kids not calling and he’s taken it well; he even makes the comment “Look, I’m not letting this thing come in between my progress with Jesus.”  I’m relieved to hear this because I’m afraid it might. Also today, I received a call from Melo explaining that he’d just run into Meadow at the bank.  He was afraid to approach and froze.  She smiled and said “It’s okay.  You can come over here.  I won’t call the police.”  Long story short, Melo told Meadow that he was meeting with me, because I (Troy) “follow Jesus.”  I am not sure if he was implying to her that he was considering it, or was following Jesus also, or what, but her response was “I am too.”

Wow.  Melo told me he didn’t know what that meant exactly either; whether she was truly a follower of Jesus, or if (a fake) Jesus had become a part of her pantheon.  Could something have happened which led Meadow to accepted Jesus?  We’re not sure, but equally as important to Melo, she spoke of a possibility of reconciling their marriage and plan to meet – with their children – in a couple days. 

Melo is beside himself with excitement and without my solicitation, he added “Troy, I was asking Jesus for a little thing with the kids calling me on Easter, but He has given me something way better.  I asked Him for a little and He gave me more than I asked for.” 

WOW!!!  To this I allude to Ephesians 3:20-21.  Is Meadow a Christian?  I definitely don’t know and I am highly skeptical, but we’ve been praying for a “Rescue Mission” for the entire family haven’t we? 

April 2021

Melo Cadenza has admitted that he’s now a follower of Jesus Christ.  He confessed this to his wife, Meadow, last week and he professed his faith in Jesus to me last night.  Yesterday evening I spent six hours with Melo, discussing Jesus’ person, His nature and Melo’s new identity in Jesus.  This is a different kind of salvation experience than I’ve ever been involved with in the past.  I am trying to be present, to assist Melo in his transition, without forcing my presuppositional beliefs on him; all the while I am stepping aside and allowing Jesus to bring Melo in.  I have led a lot of people to Christ, but this situation is different than any prior.  I am thankful that Jesus is at the helm of this transition and is allowing me to partner with Him, watch and learn, and witness how He works in such difficult conditions. 

What’s even more amazing is that Jesus is interacting with Melo; personally!  Jesus is speaking to him!  In one interaction with Jesus, Melo tells me that Jesus was joking with him.  I am like a kid sitting in the classroom watching the Master do His work.  This is truly amazing!   Another amazing thing that happened last night is, Meadow allowed their son to call Melo while I was at Melo’s home.  Another prayer answered!  I am truly overwhelmed as I write this to you.  Jesus is so awesome! 

April 2021

Today is Sunday and I just got off the phone with Melo.  After a demonic attack in his bed yesterday evening, one which worried him tremendously, Melo decides “It’s time to go to church and make this thing official.”  He’s not going to wait for his family any longer.  He’s not going to wait until he feels as if he’s “worthy” any longer.  He tells me he’s just going to go to a church and give his life to Jesus.  However, his wife calls with the opportunity to speak to both of his children a couple minutes before the service begin and he options to speak to his children.  He then calls me broken, because he misses his children and he thinks he missed his opportunity to accept Jesus.  I tell him “You don’t need a church service to accept Jesus.”  He’s thinking there has to be a ceremony or church service ritual or something.  I explain that salvation is a heart thing, not a church rite.  “I’ve led people to Jesus over the phone, in and out of church, on the street, in homes,” etc.  “Where you are doesn’t matter,” I explain, “It’s a matter of your heart.”  I offered to come to him “right now” or we could pray over the phone.  He chooses option number two and we pray him into the kingdom, me in my car and he in his, over the phone. 

This next paragraph might not set well with your theological approach to salvation, but it’s what Jesus tells me; so you can pray and ask Him for yourself.  As I’ve indicated in previous entries, I believe this salvation experience to be extraordinary.  I am now more convinced that Melo is saved over the phone seven years prior and his spirit was sealed, even though his flesh didn’t purchase ownership of the transaction.  Today, his flesh catches-up with his spirit.  What evidence do I have to support this?  Well, first my own salvation, falling away (straight pagan style) and Jesus bringing me back.  Second, Jesus tells me so.  Third, the testimony of the fight between the spirit and the flesh Paul describes in Romans 7:14-25; this block of scripture is titled “The Conflict of Two Natures” – spirit and flesh.  Romans 6:19 speaks of sanctification of the flesh through presenting the body’s parts as slaves to righteousness (spiritual). Galatians 5:17 states that the spirit and the flesh are in opposition to one another. James 4:1 speaks of the inner conflict between the flesh and the intentions of the spirit.  1 Peter 2:11 describes how fleshly lusts wage war against the soul.  The spiritual attachments to Melo’s flesh help his flesh to not identify with his spirit. 

Jesus is teaching me the breadth of the Mercy of God through Salvation, through the depth of salvation through the Blood of Jesus Christ.  Melo’s spirit is saved and sealed seven years ago.  Today, his flesh catches-up with his spirit.  All this was done through Jesus Christ’s patience, allowing Melo’s flesh to align with his spirit at Melo’s pace of understanding.  By the way, I didn’t read this through someone else’s studies and apply it to Melo’s salvation.  Jesus tells me this and I have to watch it play out through my experiences with Melo and do the homework to make sure scripture lines-up with what I’m hearing.  Whether you dispute this theological approach or not is of no consequence, because today Melo solidified the deal with Jesus one way or the other.  Melo is now both your brother and mine in Christ Jesus. Amen! 

“Rescue mission:” Meadow is next.

Today is the 28^th of April and I meet with Melo Cadenza last night.  Melo is learning to trust and grow in both his understanding of and relationship to Jesus Christ.  However, the more we learn about where his wife is headed, the more concerning and convoluted the story gets.  Meadow Dweller is a reiki master, tarot card reader, astral traveler, and communes with a “soul family” of spiritual ascended masters/teachers.

Last night I learn that – a couple years ago – Meadow wanted Melo to participate in reiki, just not through her.  He didn’t want to be involved in reiki but wanted to please his wife so he found another master in the area, communicated with this person and tells his wife he’s set-up an appointment.  Meadow asks who’s the teacher. He tells her but Meadow has never heard of her.  Melo pulls a picture of her on Facebook and shows it to Meadow.  Meadow says in a surprised tone, “Oh my god, I know who this woman is.”  Melo asks, “So, you know her?” to which she responded, “No, I have never met her before.” But she goes on to explain a prophetic dream including this woman, another woman she’s never met and herself.  In the demonic prophetic dream she’s told how her and these other two women are being put together to create a super pact in the area for the purpose of reiki and its practices.

Okay, first, reiki is a far eastern occultic work which opens doors to demonic attachments as a result of the “healing” it claims to provide.  Reiki is the avenue evil spirits use to gain access to their hosts – the ones searching out healing through it as opposed to God.  As Melo is explaining this to me Jesus says, “A cord of three strands.” He gives me a vision of the three witches in my mind and I immediately understand that this cord would be difficult to break once completed. The cord is not complete, howerver. There’s still one outstanding witch who’s probably being groomed as I write this to you.   

I understand that the territorial spirit of reiki, which has been assigned over the Eastern Shore of Md., De., & Va. intends to use Meadow and two other female reiki masters to collect souls and inflict spiritual chaos over this region – more than likely without the witches full understanding of what’s really going on; they’re deceived.  Once this super group of witches are fully assembled, what they do will be hard to reverse.  They will cause great harm on the kingdom of God, right here, locally.  I believe I am to destroy the evil cord of three strands before it is completed. 

July 2021

After a couple months of spending time together as brothers in Christ and discipleship, Melo Cadenza will not respond to me.  Melo’s last communication with me was on Tuesday June 15^th.  On that day he told me “This pain is killing me.  I’m […] lost without my family.  I’ll make things right with you and I” and asks me to give him some time to “…show her that I can be the person who brings her happiness.”  I understand at first, he’s emotionally broken.  Making the decision to switch teams and move over to the side of his witch-wife’s demon’s enemy (Jesus) has proven to be costly for him.  I later begin to understand that his explanation for separating from me was not necessarily true and I reach out to him…nothing!  I ask Jesus if I did something wrong and He tells me “He’s rejected Me, not you.”  So it appears Melo has forfeited growth with Jesus to reconcile with his wife, which she is not responsive to one bit.  I will have to wait this one out.  I have no other choice.

Dec 2021

After multiple attempts, June the 15^th is the last time I’ve heard from Melo Cadenza; that is, until Thanksgiving Day.  Out of the blue Melo sends me a text message which reads, “Happy Thanksgiving Troy.  I love you.”  We have been in contact since that day and Melo has determined that he wants to restart our discipleship process again. 

Melo is still in a lot of pain.  Meadow is tossing his spirit around like a ragdoll. Her spirits of witchcraft no longer care to be bound with his (Christian spirit/One Flesh) and that situation is manifesting in her actions toward him. 

I know that Jesus is still interested in a “Rescue Mission” and Jesus has all the patience in eternity.  Where I can’t understand what’s happening, Jesus is content.  Melo is coming back to Jesus and Meadow is next, if she will accept.  How long will it take to bring her out of the clutches of witchcraft?  I don’t know, but I am interested in the fight for her soul and so is Jesus. 

21 February 2022

Much has happened since my last entry concerning Melo Cadenza, many ups and downs.  It seems as if Meadow’s current approach is “You’ve hurt me, now I will hurt you.”   There’s been a restraining order issued, only to have it lifted.  Just recently Melo was asked to move back into his home with Meadow and the children, only to be told that Meadow wants to see other people.  Her intentions quickly manifest and culminate in an altercation with the new “other man,” which also leads to another restraining order.

We start over and so does Jesus.  Jesus will not give up on Melo and neither will I.  Jesus gave me a heart for this man years ago, and I will not abandon him.  There is good news.  The children Meadow has prepared for witchcraft, Melo has been taking to church on Sundays and reading the Bible to.  “The children love it,” Melo tells me.  Melo also text me yesterday, “I woke up at 3am with a panic attack and haven’t been able to sleep since then.  These freakin demons are destroying me bro.”  This allows me to insert the “deliverance” word into the conversation.  He agrees, so we are meeting Thursday night to begin removing the “freakin demons.” 

03 March 2022

The “freakin demons” didn’t allow us to get together – figures.  Melo is not totally sold on the idea of demons as a reality, not yet anyway.  His demons are working hard to maintain their ground and not let me near him. As of late, through the smoke laden fields of this war, Jesus restored Melo’s residential house to him; that’s right, the one he was formerly kicked out of. He’s also in the process of restoring Melo’s children.  There is still hope for Meadow, but she is fading fast.  Melo is holding onto his marriage as the demons around Meadow crucify him to her.  He’s in pain; however, through the pain he’s bringing his children to Jesus as he himself is being drawn closer to the Messiah. 

12 March 2022

Our plan for deliverance got blocked.  We are moving forward in the “Rescue Mission.”

First, Meadow totally rejects everything Melo has done to reconcile their marriage, up to the point inviting Melo to show-up to a bar while she is with her new man.  Not cool.  Long story, but the short of it is Jesus tells me to let Melo know “The Rescue Mission” continues on to him and the kids.  As for Meadow, Jesus has been presented, she has declined, she has chosen her gods and other needs over that of her families. God will take care of His own.  There is still hope for her and Jesus will continue to reach-out to Meadow, but this mission moves forward without her…for now.   

Second, Jesus opens a new age for the “restoration” of Melo.  I tell him and he asks, “Jesus told you that?”  He’s excited about his future right now.  Jesus redirects me from the direct deliverance of Melo and refocuses me on the restoration of Melo’s home.  Meadow handed the house to him, but she’s left behind some serious demons. 

Two nights ago I go to visit Melo at his home.  He shows me around as I listen to Jesus.  She’s gone, but her witchcraft is everywhere.  We find many objects that need to be destroyed.  She has a shrine to far eastern gods set over the kitchen, with love offerings made to them.  Why would she leave these objects behind?  The household has been experiencing shadow people and invisible entities moving around in the house for years.  Both him and the children are freaked out.  As he is trying to sleep, he hears demons whispering to him in his ears.  When he is at home by himself, in his living room downstairs, footsteps will walk across the upstairs floor, coming out of his son’s bedroom closet, walking over to the stairwell.   

I ask Melo to go outside and I pray throughout the home, anointing it with oil.  I even anoint the forehead of her gods (idols) with oil as I curse them, lol.  I break the spirit of witchcraft over the home, close portals of demonic entry, bless the home and call down the Blood of the Lamb to cleanse and cover it. 

Meadow tells Melo there are “cameras” in the house.  He doesn’t understand, because there are no physical cameras in the home.  So I tell him “No, she’s placed spying demons in the corners and portals to astral project herself into your home.”  We take care of those things as he tells me “That’s how she knows what I am doing Troy.” 

Before I leave, I pray the Holy Spirit into Melo and ask Melo “What are you hearing?”  He says, “Nothing, but I see the word ‘Dad’ inside my closed eyelids.”  The Spirit tells me to break the generational curse of his fathers.  I do so and pray for restoration. 

Remember I wrote above “Why would she leave these objects [her idols] behind?”  The spirit of witchcraft is a controlling spirit.  Meadow’s spirit makes her want to have it her way and still control him.  So she casts spells and establishes spy demons in the home (cameras).  She herself astral projects her own spirit into the home.  I close down all those avenues of spying and open doors for privacy and peace in Melo’s home.  As for the idols, Melo asks, so I tell him, “What doesn’t crush, burn and what doesn’t burn, crush.”  He smiles and says, “I know what to do Troy.”  He is going to cleanse his home.

22 March 2022

During our last meeting, Melo tells me Meadow’s upset that he makes her remove her family idols. She also states condescendingly, “I find it funny that Troy is here one night and the next day you make me take back [my idols].” This is very significant. The fact that she DIDN’T know what we did in his home means the cameras ARE destroyed (removed, turned “off”). We continue working on taking back Melo’s territory and creating a safe space for both him and his children.

16 April 2022

I’m in my car yesterday and call to check on Melo Cadenza.  Something he mentions about his current sorrow and shame triggers me, so I tell him “I’m going to pray the Holy Spirit inside you and ask Him to give you the name of that demon so you can give it to me.”  I didn’t know that I was about to begin a six-hour deliverance session.  I’m going to give you an overview of what happens yesterday and conclude with my subsequent follow-up today (2022.04.17).  I am very happy with Melo’s progression and courage during this process.   

When I pray the Holy Spirit in He responds immediately and Melo tells me, “I heard “Abbott.”  Sitting in my car, on the cell phone, I call up Abbott and he responds right away, laughing.  His function is fear and he tells me he enters Melo in April 1989, “His birth month” Abbott tells me.  We fight over a cell phone call and he begins to realize he is truly leaving, but not before Abbott can give-up one of his peers by the name of “Marcus” telling me, “Marcus won’t leave as easily.”  He is stronger than I.”

Before I can call up Marcus, another comes to the surface named “Mikko.”  Mikko is the demon over Melo’s sexual deviance.  As we are going through the process of removing Mikko, He tells me “You better have a lot of stamina.  We are many and we are not leaving.”  Mikko tells me that he “Entered at birth, in 1981.”  It took a while, but Mikko left and it’s on to the next. 

The next to come up is McAlester.  McAlester’s function is disfunction as he tells me “I work through lies and deception, but my main function is to make him want to drink, 24/7.  I constantly remind him of alcohol.”  The first two I send to the feet of Jesus, but McAlester I am sending to hell.  I vocalize this and he hangs-up on me.  Touché McAlester. I know I have to be in front of Melo, so I called my partner CJr².  We drive quickly and arrive at Melo’s home right around the same time.

While I’m driving, I’m speaking to Melo because he’s concerned and I notice a pattern, “All these demons are named ‘Melo type’ names” and the Holy Spirit allows me to understand immediately that these demons have interacted with and through Melo’s spirit and his spirit has given the demons their names.  I ask Melo and he confirms, “In April 1989 I was at my bus stop and fear came over me, thinking ‘My mother’s dead.’  When I get to school I get the nurse to call my mother and she’s fine.”  The name of the bus stop is “Abbot Place” and Abbott is fear.  “Mikko” entered Melo at birth and “Mikko” is also the name of Melo’s father.  Melo’s family history is riddled with immoral sexual standard.  Mikko is the spirit of sexual deviancy.   

When I get to Melo’s home, CJr² and I begin working on McAlester and he comes back up immediately.  I find myself in an argument with McAlester and something changes at that moment.  This has never happened to me in the past, but I send my spirit into the courtroom of heaven and I lay my case at the feet of God Almighty at the bench.  I ask my question and God judges in my favor.  McAlester is screaming.  I then ask God if He says McAlester must go.  He immediately tells me “Yes.”  It’s over!  The edict has been given to me from heaven to execute God’s judgement in the natural.  I begin telling McAlester “I execute God’s judgement over you.  Execute judgement…Execute judgement!”  I send McAlester to hell, but not before he gives-up what I believe to be the root/stronghold over Melo’s ancestral bloodline, Beelzebub.   

Before I can get to Beelzebub, Ethan pops-up.  Ethan is very disruptive, rebels against my authority, aggressive and threatens to take a pee in my McDonald’s tee cup.  I must be honest; he did make me laugh.  I thought he was going to do it.  Ethan tells me he doesn’t know his function, but I believe his function to be disruption.  He was good at it!  He might have been sent-up as a sacrifice by Beelzebub to frustrate the deliverance since Beelzebub was just sold-out by McAlester.  Either way, Ethan entered Melo December 2003.  On that date he enters through the sin of lust and he’s named after the husband of the woman Melo commits adultery with.  So interesting.  Again, I go into the courtroom of heaven, get the edict and execute God’s judgement on Ethan.  He leaves immediately. 

Remember Abbott gives-up Marcus in the beginning of this whole thing?  Marcus now comes up and claims to be the one who’s responsible for guilt, shame, and remorse.  I tell him, “I’ve seen your work Marcus and I’m impressed.”  He responds as he lights one of Melo’s cigarettes, “I work hard.”  He tells CJr² and me that “When I approach him [Melo, the first time] he listens.  He never disputes what I tell him.”  We break all legal rights to Marcus; the courtroom of heaven makes a decision against his presence and I deliver the edict to execute judgement.  Marcus leaves. 

I begin to list back the names of those who’ve left. There is fear in Melo and I begin to call up Beelzebub.  At that moment a weird occurrence happens: one of his cats comes in the room, the phone rings with the ringtone of Melo’s children’s voices, he snaps out of it and says, “My phone is ringing” and it’s Meadow.  Jesus let me know “That’s it for today.”  Six hours of deliverance, some by phone, some in person, five demons gone and the root/strongman exposed.

After the call Melo didn’t remember when he was “out,” so I let him look at himself in one of the videos I took of him during deliverance and he began to cry.  We didn’t get to Beelzebub, but Melo is getting stronger.  He says, “Troy, I know Jesus is my Savior and I love him, but today has let me know that Satan is real and I love Jesus even more.”  Melo is going to be a fighter in the Kingdom of God.  This is awesome, especially if you consider the whole story, even before I started documenting it on this site in January 2020.  From considering making a deal with the Devil, to being saved, then to deliverance.  Jesus is awesome!!!  Amen?

17 April 2022

Today, Melo texts me a picture of his grocery list and calls me. I can hear his concern as he says to me, “Troy, I sat down to write a grocery list. I must have blacked-out or something. I come to and the paper I’m going to write the list on is crumbled up beside me.  I didn’t crumble the paper, Troy.  Then I open the paper and this is written on it.  Troy, I haven’t written in cursive since eighth-grade.  I write in print, all caps.  I am in the house all by myself. What is going on here Troy?  What does this mean?”

It turns out the message is for me. They are trying to convince me that I can’t do the job. They are foolish and don’t understand who my Commander is! He can do all things, Amen?

19 April 2022

We speak on the phone early this evening because it didn’t work out that I could be with him in his home.  We don’t do any deliverance; I just feel as if I should “interview” Melo to see where he is after the last meeting.  As we speak, I am less and less comfortable with the idea that the ones cast out were gone.  Finally I decide to test the waters and mention each of the demons by name.  I learn two things: (1) he has no recollection of the information he’s given me about the correlation between the demon’s names and the situation to which they entered; even though he agrees it’s accurate.  It freaks him out.  (2) As I press harder, I begin to mention the demons by name and they all begin to manifest.  I stop right away because I have no way to be with him tonight if things get ugly.

I don’t know if the demons we cast are actually gone and came directly back, or if they were never gone in the first place.  I would like to think the former is correct.  This is discouraging to say the least, but I know one thing; in the past, when this job gets hard, Jesus is always teaching me something new.  Jesus always wins guys, whether I do or not.  

16 Dec 2022

This story is not over even though Melo’s stopped talking to me…for now. There are many reasons for his flight from deliverance. Those reasons are not important for today, but will become important again once the ceasefire is withdrawn.

26 Feb 2023

Melo has lost his business, is losing his house, drinking himself out of his mind, and is now under the threat of losing his children. I suspect Meadow’s witchcraft to be a primary conspirator; she hates him and has threatened to destroy him. However, his free will is dubious; he’s still listening to his enemies as Marcus tells us in April, 2022, “When I approach him [the first time] he listens.  He never disputes what I tell him.” Melo is lying to his family, lying to me and lying to himself. He’s been in court, rehab, broken his probation and is now under the threat of going to jail. Her witchcraft and his demons are trying to destroy him. He needs to allow deliverance so he can live the life God intends through Jesus.
