Going to visit the last living witch in Oman - follow up 5 years later!

Back in 2012, Isaac of Ninevah and I were in the interior of Oman and visited the "witchcraft capital of Arabia", a small city in the interior.

Here was our blogpost where I wrote about visiting the house of the "last living witch"


Over the years I have shared the story about our failed attempt to go and pray for this man who represented the power of magic in his region.  

A couple of guys who heard the story however wanted to follow up and just this week went back and visited the home of this man, as I was able to drop them a pin on Google Maps as to the exact location of the witch's house.

As it was 5 years ago, the witch had subsequently passed away. In 2012, he had been very old and in poor health.

But these young men went to the house, and were able to spend several hours sharing the Gospel with the witch's son, his son-in-law (who had been the one before who would NOT let us pray for his father-in-law).  They spoke about the power of Christ and His authority over the kingdom of darkness and all demonic witchcraft.  The son of the witch seemed the most open and interested and one of the men was able to pull him aside and pray for him.

May God cause His Word and Truth to grow in this home.  A house once known for witchcraft to one day be known as a light for the Gospel in a dark islamic land.
