Providing education, training & support about Heaven & Spiritual Warfare around the globe.
It’s just a plastic tent stake – but with the Word of God it becomes a powerful weapon.
Take an active step in your battle and stake the borders of your property or community and government buildings in your area. This act faithfully calls out for God to bless the land and rescue His people. And it is a declaration that the land was created by Him, still belongs to Him, and exists for His purposes today.
This activation of faith for a Christian is like that of the Jews in Deuteronomy 6:8-9.
What Are The Stakes?
God Markers on the Land
Steve’s journey learning about spiritual warfare got serious when a non-Christian man came to him with a problem: he said he had demons on his property. Steve didn’t know how to respond, so he silently prayed as the man talked. After the quick prayer, Steve had a strange verse pop into his head from Deuteronomy 6 that instructed God’s people to put Scripture on their gates and doorposts. So Steve & this non-Christian man who was desperate for help put Bible verses on ordinary tent stakes. Then they placed these stakes in the ground on the corners of this man’s property, read the verses out loud, and prayed for God’s protection. Everything changed. The man confessed Jesus as Lord, was baptized, and is now living faithfully in peace and safety as a Christian. Others heard about this event and copied this idea, and Spiritual Warfare Stakes became a tool of faith spreading across the globe.

Introduction:
Welcome to today’s episode of The Presence of God! I’m your host, Niccie, and today we’re having a powerful and deeply moving conversation with Merline Ulloth, founder of The Uncommon U.
Merline shares her raw and faith-filled testimony of how God met her through trauma, illness, military life, and hidden pain—and how quiet deliverance led her from a “common” life into an uncommon identity, wholeness, and assignment. This episode is not just a testimony—it’s an invitation.
THE PROBLEM
Take a moment to reflect—do any of these sound familiar?
You believe in God, but still feel stuck in survival mode
You’ve experienced trauma but learned how to “function” instead of heal
You attend church, serve faithfully, yet feel unseen or unnamed
You were saved—but never discipled into wholeness and identity
The reality is—without healing and deliverance, we can live saved lives while still wearing masks God never asked us to carry.
THE WORD
Throughout the conversation, Scripture comes alive through Merline's story:
Psalm 23 – God restores the soul before He leads us forward
Isaiah 40:31 – Waiting on the Lord renews strength and teaches us how to soar
2 Timothy 1:7 – Fear is not from God; power, love, and a sound mind are
John 1:1 & Hebrews 4:12 – The Word is living, active, and powerful
Merline's journey shows us that God’s Word doesn’t just inform us—it transforms us.
THE GIFT
As Niccie and Merline unpack this journey, we see the gifts God gives when we surrender fully:
Healing – From trauma, anxiety, and physical affliction
Deliverance – Freedom from survival thinking and hidden bondage
Identity – Removing masks and restoring who God always intended
Rest – Learning to abide instead of strive
Assignment – Being sent to demonstrate God, not defend ourselves
THE CHOICE
Every believer faces a crossroads:
Will I live saved but surviving—or healed and whole?
Will I remain comfortable in what’s familiar—or surrender to God’s refining?
Will I define myself by trauma—or allow God to rewrite my identity?
As Merline shares, healing is not the end—wholeness is.
Personal Reflection
Where might God be inviting you into quiet healing instead of public performance?
What masks helped you survive—but may now be keeping you from wholeness?
Are you willing to wait, rest, and abide so God can fully restore you?
Let’s Close in Prayer
“Lord, thank You for meeting us in quiet places. Thank You for restoring what was broken and calling us into wholeness. Heal the hidden wounds, restore identity, and teach us to rest, abide, and soar in You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
Takeaway from the Episode
Through Merline's story, we’re reminded that God encounters aren’t random—they are intentional invitations into healing, identity, and purpose. If God met her in the hidden places, He can meet you there too.
