Acknowledgements

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.
ROMANS 1:16 (NKJV)

F irst and foremost I would like to thank and give all the glory, honor, and praise to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for giving me this opportunity to write my second book, Unmasking the Devil, as this could not have been done without Him. I thank God for making me a bondservant.

One thing I always reflect on is that He is the God of second chances, as in my demonic, devil-worshipping days I used to live in a community that had 179 buildings; I thank God that out of those 179 buildings, Jesus Christ knew my address. Grace and mercy were shone upon me that night and I was set free.

I thank Jesus for the divine appointment in bringing Raoul Davis and Leticia Gomez of Ascendant Group into my life, for this wonderful connection, and for allowing Raoul to tune in that morning to a Christian TV show featuring my story. I am blessed that God prompted his heart to contact me. Raoul is a true man of God and a man who is real and genuine in his own life. I have been very blessed to know him.

I send my deepest appreciation and thanks to Destiny Image and the staff for allowing me to be part of a precious family and such an awesome legacy. I am grateful and thankful for a lifetime.

I also want to send my love and appreciation to the many people of TBN, The 700 Club, Church Channel, End Churchianity, and also talk blog radio programs such as Omegaman Radio with Shannon Davis, Watchmen Radio with Richard Keltner, Eternal Planner with Rob Rennie, and 1 on One with Damon Davis. These are amazing ministries, and I am humbled to have the opportunity to be a part of these special ministries in Jesus name.

Special thanks to the many churches that I have been privileged to minister in. I am grateful to God for these precious open doors.

I want to thank God for my spiritual covering, Champions Ministries in Orlando, Florida, for being such a vital part, not only of my ministry, but also of my personal life. Apostles Alexander and Sandra, thank you for being so good to me and genuine in your walk with the Lord.

I am beyond grateful to be sitting in Times Square Church for the past twelve years and for being under such an awesome ministry that sustains me spiritually. I am always grateful for the three years I was blessed to be mentored by Pastor David Wilkerson. I miss you, Pastor Dave, and one day I will see you again.

I am deeply grateful for Denise Loffredo, for being such an amazing woman of God and taking up the challenge of typing out this precious book and handling the spiritual warfare that came with it. A special thanks to Denise.

I want to thank Angie Kiesling; she is my best friend and my editor. I thank God for her ministry, The Editorial Attic (editorialattic.com). She did an amazing job, just as she did with my first book, Out of the Devils Cauldron. Thank you, Angie, once again.

A special thanks to Brother Shannon Davis of Omegaman Radio. I thank God for his ministry and for bringing us together to destroy the kingdom of darkness through spiritual warfare and deliverance; for us teaming up together, and for collaborating with me to create an incredible chapter in this book to set the captives free. You are a special brother in Christ for life.

To my daughter, Amanda, whom I love with all my heart. You have grown to be a beautiful young lady. I am privileged and feel special and humbled to be your dad. I know that God is going to do incredible things through your life. You are special in every way. I say this once again: out of all the daughters in the world, I thank God every day that He gave me you.

I thank God, the Lord Jesus Christ, for giving me such a special mom, whom I love with all my heart. She is a gift from God. Having a mom like her is like finding a precious pearl.

My brothers, George and Stock, you are precious and awesome in every way possible. I am so blessed to have you as brothers. I see the hand of God upon your lives.

I am amazed at the blessings of God for giving me jewels on the earth: precious Israelites, Jewish Messianic brothers. I have an incredible love for Israel, deeper than the love I have for my own country, Puerto Rico, which I love as well. Precious men of God such as Jeff Kruh, Alan Binger, and Brother David Berkowitz (the Son of Hope) have taught me in a supernatural way to see the Word of God through Jewish eyes. I also thank Nate Binger for an incredible website. I am indebted to the Jewish people for giving us Yeshua, the Savior. I thank God for these precious men.

I am doing a life sentence with Jesus Christ, and I want no parole. Thank you, Jesus.

Im here on the ground with my nose in it since the whole thing began. Ive nurtured every sensation mans been inspired to have. I cared about what he wanted and I never judged him. Why? Because I never rejected him. In spite of all his imperfections, Im a fan of man! Im a humanist. Maybe the last humanist. Who in their right mind, Kevin, could possibly deny the Twentieth Century was entirely mine?

Dont get too cocky, my boy. No matter how good you are, dont ever let them see you coming. Thats the gaffe, my friend. You gotta keep yourself small. Innocuous. Be the little guy. You know, the nerdthe leper the sh*t-kickin serf. Look at me: underestimated from day one. Youd never think I was a master of the universe, now would ya?
