Pain makes people reach for anything that promises relief, and that’s why this story lands with such force. We’re in a Sunday night miracle service where we pray, then lead deliverance aimed at what we call a spirit of infirmity. Afterward, we do something simple and honest: we ask who actually feels different.

A young woman named Chloe steps forward and says her hip and back had been fractured, but the pain feels like it has left her. As she keeps talking, the testimony takes an unexpected turn into one of the biggest spiritual trends right now: crystal healing and New Age practices blending into Christian life. Chloe admits she had been involved with crystals and even wore them around her neck because someone told her they would heal her. We respond with a direct claim and a direct next step: God is the healer, and faith can’t stay tangled up with spiritual counterfeits.

We talk candidly about deliverance, Christian healing, idolatry, and why “a little bit of both” sounds harmless but pulls the heart in two directions. You’ll hear why we connect this to the first commandment, what it looks like to renounce idols in real time, and why surrender is not just an idea but an action. If you’ve ever wondered about crystals and Christianity, spiritual warfare, or how to discern what’s actually helping you, this conversation is for you.

Subscribe, share this with a friend who’s wrestling with spiritual mixing, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway. What’s one area where you’ve been tempted to keep a backup plan instead of fully trusting Jesus?

It was at our healing service, the miracle service that I lead on Sunday nights, and we did a bunch of prayer, and then I called the congregation to come forward and we were going to do deliverance on a spirit of infirmity. And we all did that. At the close of that, I asked if there was anyone who felt that they had gotten healed, because after all, we drove out the spirit of infirmity. A young lady named Chloe said that her hip and her back had been fractured and that she felt like the pain had left. And then she went into detail that she had been involved in crystals and she even had crystals around her neck. A friend of hers had told her, Wear
