SID: I have my guest Ana Werner here and Ana, you are so free in the spirit. Well, I’ll tell you something that excites me. There’s such a misunderstanding even when you hear the word spiritual warfare, you take this whole realm of spiritual warfare into a whole new dimension. In fact, you call it dances even though it’s not necessarily you’re dancing, but you use the word dances. Why?
ANA: Well, when we think of spiritual warfare, I don’t think we think of it in terms of that, right? We think of going into war as in we’ve got our combat boots on, sword drawn. We’re going to take the enemy down. But here’s the thing. I had this vision. I was taken up into Heaven and I was going through a really hard season and I was taken up and when I was there, I had this bridal gown on and I was wearing these really old worn out tennis shoes. I was running towards Jesus. I was out of breath, which I think is how most of us feel when we’re in warfare. We feel tired out, worn down, wary. And Jesus, He looked at me and He said, “No, no, no, Ana.” And He said, “Listen, take these.”
I looked in His hands and there’s these beautiful ballerina dancing slippers and He said, “Put these on and worship.” So I put on the slippers, I took my old sneakers off, put on the slippers and then I started dancing. As ideas and I worshiped, different colors were released in the throne room there in Heaven and I realized we have more power when we combat the enemy through victorious worship than the placement of being in the posture of defeat. That is not the correct posture to do war with the enemy.
Audience: Yeah.
SID: You have such a wonderful example. It’s a difficult time. You were in Africa with your husband and he was dying.
ANA: He had gotten a blood infection. It was staph blood infection. His stomach was bleeding and he had a fever that was really high. The doctor said to us, “You know, Ana.” They pulled me aside and said, “If he doesn’t get better and turn a corner soon, you’re going to have to go back to the States.” So I went into the little kitchenette and I prayed. My prayer wasn’t filled with faith. I said, “Dear God, what am I going to do?” I said, “God, show me what to do. Help me. Help me.” And He said, “Ana, go in there and sing the name of Jesus over Sam,” my husband. So I went in the little room and I said, “Sam, I’m going to sing the name of Jesus over you. I know it doesn’t make sense, but that’s what I know to do.” He say, “Oh, okay.” I said, “That’s good enough. That’s an okay.” So I put my hand on his forehead that was boiling hot and I sang. And I sang Jesus. And as I sang just the name of Jesus, that’s all I sing, the fever went down, it got cooler on his head and I went, “Oh, it’s working.” So then I put my hand on his chest, which was still boiling hot and I sang the name of Jesus and then it broke there.” I kept going all the way down to his feet. Then finally the fever broke. He sat up in bed and he said, “I’m hungry.” I want to thank you, Jesus.
