Testimony of Myles B. - #2

YouTube Channel: “Smoking Weed Seeing The Devil In Jay-Z On My Way   

                                  To Hell”

     “My name is Myles McClendon and I just want to share my testimony about how I came to Christ through seeing the devil and the hip hop music. 

     And I saw a lot of different things, but primarily that is what led me to giving my life over to Christ. 

     I want to say thank you to everybody who has shared their testimony or some type of supernatural experience, because, it’s encouraged me to do the same and be obedient to God and to share our stories on what happened and what really happens in the spirit because, it’s more real than the natural realm. 

     And, so, I was 18 years old, and I want to get right in to it. 

     I’m 34 now. 

     I was 18 in 2006. 

     I was at Wayne State University and I was with a lot of bad influences. 

     I didn’t smoke weed.

     I didn’t do any of those things. 

     But, once I turned 18, I started, and I started a lot. 

     And, things started happening to me as I would smoke weed. 

     So, the first time we were all, me and my friends, we were all in the dorm room after we had smoked. 

     And, I had a computer in my room and we were playing music. 

     And, it would just be the loudest on the weekend, and when it was playing, while it was hot, I started to dance uncontrollably. 

     And, I did not have say on what I would do. 

     It was like controlling my body. 

     I was possessed. 

     And, I was telling my friends, because, I was about to start crying, like, I don’t have control of by body. 

     I’m like, ‘Hey, cut the music off.’ 

     And, they laughing. 

     And, finally, they cut the music off, and I got control of my body again. 

     And, so, I thought, you know, I brushed it off like that was a crazy experience. 

     But, we smoked again. 

     We’re in my room again, and this time, my friend, he starts to dance.

     And, he can’t stop dancing. 

     And, he’s saying, ‘Myles, I know what you’re talking about. I can’t stop dancing. Cut the music off.’ 

     And, so, I went and I cut the music off. 

     Now, mind you, when we would dance, the people that were around us would become entranced. 

     They would be so spellbound by what we did, because, it wasn’t us. 

     There was a presence of demons, literal demons, that were seducing spirits, that would entrance people to where they could watch us dance for hours.

     And, I want to emphasize that, because, it would take some time for me to finally get to say that I’m not in control. 

     It would take some time because, when you’re high, you don’t have a real good measure on the time. 

     Everything seems like longer. 

     It’s like slow motion. 

     It’s like you go into the eternal realm. 

     And, it’s, you know, time is relative. 

     It could seem longer, shorter, but for some reason, every time I smoke, it would seem like slow motion.

     Everything is slow motion. 

     And, so, this last time we smoked, we decided to go over to my friend’s apartment. 

     They had like a bachelor pad. 

     And, I call this the straw that broke the camel’s back, because, they had two or three blunts and I would smoke a couple. 

     I would take a couple of hits and I would be done. 

     But, this particular time, they had this big couch and a big screen TV surround sound.

     It was a true bachelor pad. 

     And, they had two or three blunts and they roll them around.

     And, I was done. 

     I was stuck. 

     And, all of a sudden, my eyes went out of focus. 

     They blurried and I couldn’t see.

     And, then, they focused. 

     When they refocused, I had 20/20 vision and I wear glasses. 

     And, I had 20/20 vision.

     And, I could zoom in and zoom out. 

     It was crazy. 

     And, I look down at the carpet and the carpet, the carpet started swirling. 

     It started swirling and then it changed into this beautiful portrait. 

     I’m talking about, it’s something I haven’t seen to this day.

     It looked like it was an ancient art or something like that. 

     And, a voice came to my ear and said, ‘You can draw this and you can be rich and famous. You can trace this. All you have to do is get high every day.’

     And, I was like, I’m trippin'. 

     Whatever, whatever this voice is, it made me deeply afraid, because I haven’t drawn or told anybody that I could draw, that I have a love for drawing in such a long time. 

     They made me understand that something has been studying me for a long time, and has been waiting for the perfect opportunity to present this, because it was a real temptation. 

     It was a real temptation. 

     That’s the thing about that word, it’s that born to be something that you don’t desire. 

     And, so, I realized that whatever this is, I don’t want no part, because, what’s the price? 

     And, so, I’m still at the mercy of the marijuana because I can’t move. 

     My body is incapacitated, so, I’m like stuck. 

     And, they put on this DVD, and they were going to put a Tupac Machavelian and I’m so glad they didn’t, because I never watched it.  

     But, I don’t know if I would’ve been able to handle it looking back. 

     But, they put on Jay-Z, Fade To Black, and I’d never seen that either. 

     And, so, my eyes had blurried again, like right before they did that. 

     And, I told you, I had 20/20. 

     They blurried after the 20/20 and when they focused again, it was like I went past the natural and I was able to see spiritual things. 

     Like straight up, I could see spirits. 

     It was crazy. 

     And, when they put the Fade To Black on, I had knowledge about things that nobody ever taught me. 

     And, so, he started off.

     The camera was facing the sky. 

     He was talking about, you know, ‘I got to do this show, at night, when the stars is aligned. And before I do that, I got to get everybody up to my level.’ 

     And, literally, like audible voices, and, I was saying it out loud, 

     I was like, ‘That’s witchcraft.’ 

     I was like, wait, how did I know that? 

     I don’t know, whatever. 

     I’m trippin'.

     I’m high. 

     And, this is my conversation to myself. 

     I looked around to see if people, you know, were looking at me like I’m crazy because, I’m talking to myself. 

     And, so, I’m conscious enough to know that what I’m seeing is not normal, but I’m still high. 

     And, so, the DVD of Jay-Z, Fade To Black, consists of him showing his performance at Madison Square Garden about his retirement. 

     What the Black album is, his retirement album. 

     And, it was showing the process of making the album, Fade To Black. 

     And, so, when the camera showed Jay-Z, he had a snake inside of him. 

     I’m talking about it was like about this big (hands raise to show 2 ½ feet).

     And, the snake was colorful.

     And, it wasn’t saying anything or doing anything.

     But, he was walking around and I could see the snake inside of him. 

     And, the tail, the tail was moving a little bit.

     It was swaying, like this. 

     And, you could see him, like seeing fast forward.

     You could see him go, like this going to songs.

     He’s trying to find the right song. 

     He’s narrated on the DVD saying, ‘You gotta find the right song. If you get the right artist with the right song, like you crack the door open,’ he said, ‘god will come in.’ 

     He was lying, 'cause it wasn’t the God of the Bible.

     It was the god of this world, which was Satan. 

     And, he found the song.

     And, the snake that I was watching the whole time, because, I was looking to see if anybody else saw it.

     But, it was just me. 

     The snake started speaking, like at a real fast rate. 

     It started going like this (hand motioning very fast).

     Like real fast.

     Real fast. 

     And, he looked like he was possessed, like I was when I was dancing. 

     And, he started mumbling.

     And, he went in the studio and he did the song after that happened. 

     And, he said, I don’t know what y’all call it man.'

     I call it my ‘Magic Moment.’ 

     And, I, was about to cry and go crazy because what was happening to me at that time was, I was realizing that Satan is real. 

     And, I was realizing that I’m on the wrong side. 

     I’m on the wrong side! 

     I felt this dread, this fear, this weight of my condition. 

     If I was to die right now, where I would go?

     And, it was not heaven. 

     And, it was a horrible thing.

     But, I’m still at the mercy of this marijuana. 

     And, at the time, I hitched a ride with my friend.

     So, when they’re ready to go, I gotta go. 

     You know, I’m not gonna be able to go until they’re ready. 

     And, so, I’m still there and I’m watchin' and engaged with all the people throughout the whole Fade To Black documentary. 

     And, he goes, and he’s doing his performance. 

     And, he’s doing this performance with masses of people, and he’s telling them to throw their hands up. 

     And, he, he had Mary J. Blige come out there. 

     And, the way Mary J. Blige sang to Jay-Z was like she was worshipping a god. 

     It was like she was worshipping God. 

     And, it sounded like, like, when you’re in the choir and you have a solo and you’re singing to God.

     But, it was to a man. 

     It was to Jay-Z. 

     And, I was understanding, because we idolized Jay-Z growing up. 

     In my time, we idolized him. 

     And, you don’t realize what that word means.

     You literally put him on a pedestal.

     That you worship him.

     And, then, he’s saying, ‘Throw your hands up.’ 

     And, everybody’s throwing their hands up. 

     And, so, I’m trying to get out of this room. 

     That’s my goal at the time. 

     I’m watching the DVD, but I want to get away from it.

     As far as possible.

     But, I can’t.

     And, so, I get as close to the door, the exit.

     I get as close as I can. 

     And, he said, ‘Everybody get your hands up.’ 

     And, I felt this force come under my hands and tried to lift my hands up. 

     And, something inside of me snapped.

     And, I went like, ‘No, there’s only one God!’ 

     And, I was like, ‘Wait, why did I just say that?’ 

     And, when I looked to my left, all of my friends had their hands up. 

     They looked like zombies. 

     It was the most frightening thing you ever want to see. 

     Everybody’s face was pale.

     There was a whole bunch of weed smoke, but in the midst of that weed smoke, I saw other spirits there. 

     I saw that we weren’t alone. 

     I saw that, man, they were leading us to Hell. 

     I’m trying not to get choked up now because it was so, so real. 

     I cannot explain to you that the spirit realm is more real than the natural realm. 

     And, I saw that. 

     And, I was, okay, I gotta go home. 

     I got to get home. 

     And, that was the only thing that was keeping me from like breaking. 

     It was like I had to use all my strength.

     It was the grace of God, 

     I had to use all my strength, not to just snap and just break down and just lose it.

     Because, I was about to lose my mind. 

     And, so, we finally get ready to go. 

     The album is finally done and l even saw Kanye West. 

     I saw Kanye West on the album.

     How he looked on the DVD.

     How he looked up to Jay-Z.

     How he came out with this song called, 'Lucifer, Son of the Morning.'

     That was on the documentary. 

     I’m trying to leave and I just keep seeing things that are confirming how real Satan is. 

     And, Jay-Z went and he was rapping.

     And, he quoted a scripture from the Bible. 

     And, he came outside and scratched his head.

     And, he said, ‘Word to my mother, I never read the Bible in my life.’ 

     And, I understood that Satan knows the Word of God. 

     He tempted Jesus with the Word of God. 

     I understood that he used to be an angel in Heaven.

     And, that he fell. 

     I understood that he could possess somebody, and that they could potentially speak something that they didn’t learn themselves.

     Because, they’re being possessed by a spirit that knows everything that’s going through their mind.

     And, he said, ‘I wash you all with the holy water and when I perish, the meek shall inherit the earth. Until that time, it’s own and poppin' church.’ 

     I understood that he meant, the devil knows he’s gonna perish.

     But, until that time, I’m gonna get as many people to go to Hell as possible.

     It’s own and poppin' church. 

     Everything he was saying, I understood the spiritual consequences and the ramifications behind it. 

     I knew that this was not a game.

     That these songs, these rap artists, these people that do these songs under the influence of the devil are waging war against the saints of God.

     Against humanity. 

     He already has humanity entrenched, in sin and in bondage by the spirit of disobedience. 

     And, they are already by nature children of God. 

     So, he already has them.

     He’s waging war against the people that are already believers and the people that could potentially become believers. 

     So, he wants to keep you bound.

     So, he wages war through music.

     Through temptations.

     Through things that will keep you doing what will get you to Hell.

     And, so, I also understood, because, I felt it, the intense hatred that they have for humanity. 

     The way the devil feels about you.

     It’s beyond comprehension. 

     He hates you so much that he wants you to go to Hell. 

     He wants you to burn in eternity.

     In Hell. 

     You have done nothing to him.

     But, he hates you. 

     He is our enemy.

     Our archenemy. 

     The first person that was created by God, he deceived. 

     He had them fall. 

     The first two, he had them fall. 

     He couldn’t get to Adam directly, so he went through his wife.

     And, they got to Adam.

     And, they both fell. 

     God saved us with great difficulty. 

     It was, the reason why Jesus says it’s only one way to get to Heaven is because there was only one way to redeem us. 

     It was with great difficulty that He saved humanity. 

     What the devil really did to us, what the devil really waged war against us, is beyond what we can understand. 

     And, I was getting this download.

     Like, of understanding the war that he is waging against us.

     Straight from the pits of Hell. 

     And, he’s got agents.

     He’s got rappers.

     He’s got singers.

     He’s got scientists.

     He’s got all these people.

     But, greater is He that is in us, than he that is in the world. 

     I’m just letting people know that if you watch this and you think that and you try to water it down and down play it, I’m tryin' to tell you that it’s realer than what you know. 

     It’s realer than what you can understand unless you get this revelation from God.

     And, God could give you this revelation, if you ask Him.

     I was finally getting ready to leave with my friends. 

     And they stayed in a, almost like a similar set up to a dorm, except they had apartments. 

     So, there was a hallway.

     There were some steps. 

     And, in the hallway, there were different doors that led to different apartments. 

     But, I remember distinctly, leaving out after everybody. 

     I think that I went to the bathroom to put some water on my face. 

     And, I needed to try to sober up. 

     And, we walked out and I heard them talking amongst themselves, in front of me, like, “Man, she at it again. There she goes again.” 

     And, I was wondering what they were talking about. 

     And, the thing was, when they opened the door, there was so much weed smoke that came out of the door, that you knew that whoever was neighbors to them, were catching a lot of weed smoke, second hand, smelling it, the vapors, the smoke. 

     There was definitely a residual effect that was just out in the hallway when you just opened the door. 

     But, we were walking, and we’re all still high.

     And, I’m the last person. 

     And, I’m walking and I see this light on this door. 

     And, it is like, like a light shining down from heaven on this door. 

     And, when I got to the door of this particular apartment, there was this girl behind the door.

     And she was singing her heart out to God. 

     I don’t know if it was, well I know what it was. 

     But, it sounded so good. 

     It sounded like it was a recorded album. 

     And, I knew it was a real person, because they were saying, ‘She doin' it again.’ 

     Like, I think, she sang before. 

     But, I felt God’s Spirit drawing me to knock.

     Before I could, the same way I felt something come under my hands and try to lift my hands up and I said, ‘No,’ I felt God’s Spirit drawing me to knock on the door. 

     And, I was about to knock on the door. 

     I was about to knock on the door, and right when my hand was about to make contact with the wood, one of my friends yelled out.

     Like, it was Satan, trying to lure me back in. 

     And, he yelled it with like with an anger.

     And, he was like, ‘Myles, you comin'?’ 

     And, it snapped me out of it and I started walking back with them.

     And, I looked at the door.

     And, I just kept walking. 

     So, I was getting ready to go downstairs with all my friends.

     And, we’re all dead silent, because we’re all high. 

     And, everybody’s in their own world. 

     And, we’re going down the steps. 

     And, the steps is like, it’s like two or three flights. 

     And, the lights weren’t working. 

     So, it started off light, and it got dimmer as we went down. 

     And, there was one light.

     And, it was a red exit sign. 

     So, it looked like we were entering into this dark, red place, just going down.

     And, it looked like we were getting ready to go down to Hell. 

     Now, I thought this in my mind. 

     And, out of the blue, one of my friends, he just yelled out. 

     He was like, ‘We’re on our way to Hell, y’all!’ 

     And, everybody bust out laughing. 

     Everybody, just, they thought it was the funniest thing in the world. 

     And, I knew I had just thought that. 

     And, it just made me want to break down and cry, because that’s the truth. 

     I knew that we were on our way to Hell. 

     And, it was like, I was meeting people. 

     Because, in college, I’m meeting new people all the time. 

     But, it was like, we would smoke and it felt like we were on our way to Hell.

     And, we were meeting people on our way to Hell. 

     And, so, I knew these people, but I didn’t know them like that well. 

     And, so, we get in the car. 

     And, I didn’t want to hear no Jay-Z.

     But, that’s all we listened to. 

     It was like the very thing that I liked, on the other side, seeing what it really was, and was torment to hear it again. 

     But, that’s all we listened to. 

     So, as soon as we got into the car, it was Jay-Z on the CD. 

     And, it was so bad that it came on.

     I said, ‘I don’t want to hear no more.’

     But, the CD started skipping. 

     And, when the CD started skipping, the words that were skipping were making sentences, talking to me. 

     I cannot remember everything he was saying, but it was, I was trying to block it off. 

     I’ll put it like that. 

     It was skipping and it was, it was like demonic. 

     It was demonic. 

     It was demonic activity. 

     It was spiritual forces, spiritual wickedness.

     And, you could, you could feel it.

     It was tangible. 

     And, l was done. 

     I had been done hours ago. 

     Finally get to my, it felt like an eternity, finally get to the dorm rooms and my roommate, his name was Jodie. 

     He was, it was actually his friends that I was introduced to, and that’s the place that we went to. 

     He got into the room and I got into the room and I just got a black trash bag and I just started dumping my clothes in there.

     And, I was getting ready to go. 

     I dumped my clothes in there and before Jodie had walked into the room, I had gotten on the phone with my mom and I couldn’t say anything to her. 

     And, it was about two or three o’clock in the morning. 

     And, I called, because I wanted to go home. 

     And, it rang like three times and the conversation was just like this. 

     And, this is my mom picking up. 

     She grabbed it.

     She said, ‘Hello, hello, Myles?’ 

     And, all I could say was the most, the only strength that I could muster, was a broken ‘Ma.’ 

     I just said, ‘Ma.’ 

     She said, ‘You want me to come get you? I’m on my way.’ 

     And, she hung up the phone. 

     And, that was the conversation. 

     Her and my dad both came. 

     They drove up to the college. 

     They both came in different cars, but they both drove up like they were ready for whatever I was gonna to tell them. 

     I got into the car with my mom and I told her the story that I’m telling you. 

     And, I finally, at that moment, I just let it go. 

     I looked at my mom and I said, ‘Mom, am I going crazy?’ 

     And, I just broke down. 

     I just broke down. 

     And, my mom looked at me and she said, 'God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of love, power and a sound mind.' 

     And, when she said that, it was like I was gasping for air, and she gave me air with the Word of God. 

     It was like, and I was like, ‘Is that what God said?’ 

     For the first time, in my adult life, I wanted to know what God said. 

     And, I said, ‘Is that what God said?’ 

     I said, ‘I’ve been listening to the devil this whole time. Is that what God said?’ 

     And, that little snippet kept my sanity.

     Because, I was about to lose it. 

     And, it carried over until church that Sunday. 

     I went to church and I still had to hold my composure because, I wanted to go to the altar. 

     And, I can’t remember the service.

     I can’t remember what they sang, what they preached.

     All I remember is the altar call. 

     I just remember the altar call. 

     And, he invited somebody either backslidden.

     Or, if you want to give your life to Christ to walk up. 

     I walked up and I was holding it together. 

     And, they took us to the back and I’m so glad they did. 

     They took us to the back and I just started crying. 

     I just started crying. I just, I just broke down. 

     And, that was my prayer. 

     My prayer was in my heart, and I just cried. 

     And, the minister who was there, his name was Elder Charlie and he just prayed for me. 

     And, the prayer that he said was what my heart was saying. 

     He was putting words to what my heart was saying. 

     And, as I was crying, I felt this weight, that was on my back, like it had wings, it just lifted off my back. 

     It just lifted off my back and I physically felt forgiven. 

     I felt forgiven. 

     And, then, I had like a download of just the reality that Jesus Christ is the Truth, the Way and the Life. 

     And, that’s the only way to get to Heaven. 

     This is real. 

     The Bible is real. 

     The church of God is real. 

     I understood it all. 

     It was like He just gave me just a download. 

     And, then, I knew that I was, that He had a calling for me to go into ministry.

     I just had a hunger for God and I just wanted to share my testimony of how that happened for me. 

     Because, it’s real. 

     It’s real. 

     And, if this touches just one life, if it’s just one life, it’s worth it for me to get online and share this with you. 

     And, I want to say thank you to everybody who has shared their stories of what has happened, that has led them to Christ, because God, God said in His Word, ‘We are overcomers, by the blood of the Lamb, and the word of our testimony.’ 

     God is good. 

     He’s good.

     And, I want you all to be encouraged. 

     I want you all to be encouraged and know that God, He went through great difficulty for you to have the opportunity to be saved. 

     There was only one way for Him to do it. 

     And, if you feel this message resonate in your heart, I would like to give you the opportunity, that I didn’t know, that wasn’t given to me. 

     God can save you in the way that’s unique for you. 

     I had no ‘Sinner’s Prayer.’ 

     It was my heart. 

     And, that’s what He wants.

     He wants your heart. 

     He wants your heart to repent and to turn to Him. 

     To turn away from the enemy.

     And, turn to the One who loves your soul. 

     The One who loves you so much.

     That He died a brutal, horrible, death on the cross. 

     His blood was shed.

     So, that, we can obtain Heaven. 

     He became our sin.

     Our mistakes.

     Our thoughts.

     So, that, we can become His righteousness.

     His holiness.

     And, have right standing with God. 

     God is SO good.

     He’s SO just. 

     He’s SO holy that He knew.

     I can’t deviate from judgment. 

     But, if I can give My judgment to Myself.

     And, turn to redeem them.

     They can have access to Me.

     Again.

     And, I can have access to them.

     Again.

     Because, I love them so. 

     That’s the best story in the world. 

     There’s no greater love than that.

     I pray that this touches your soul.

     That this touches your heart.

     And, that you share this. 

     Be blessed.”
