Indeed, there is power in the name of Jesus.
Also, get rid of ANYTHING remotely occult in the house - it opens doors and invites demons.
That includes ouija boards, tarot cards, books with occult/magic/witchcraft/vampire themes, etc.
Usually, demons don’t bother people unless they do something to invite them in. Then, you may need an exorcist.
Prayer certainly will help, and attending a church.
I am Catholic myself, so I would suggest consulting an exorcist. One might consult the parish priest first, or the bishop. But in these days, not every priest or even bishop can be relied on to know what to do in a case like this.
There are a few well-known exorcists in this country, and I guess you might consult one of them.
Someone posted an article here recently noting that Fr. Thomas Eutener is an exorcist:
Fr. Eutener is head of Priests for Life. He once preached to our parish when I lived in Westchester, and he is an impressive and loving man. I don’t know if he could help, but perhaps he could recommend someone who could. In any case, if the local priest and/or bishop can’t help, perhaps he could advise you. You could contact him through his web site.
“Are you a believer in Jesus Christ? If so, command it to be gone in His Holy Name. Speak the words with power and authority.”
Agreed! Satan is afraid of Jesus. Tell him (it) “In the name of Jesus, BEGONE”
The child is 4 and no it’s a different house....totally far removed from where my brother has seen it.
In fact, it’s the first time my brother has told me of it, or spoke of it. We were talking about our childhood and how and why things have happened.
He told me this because he thinks there might be something going against us, on purpose. We just don’t know what it may be.
Yeah, I know. There are a lot of people who’ve drank the James Randi Kool-Aid. If he, Bill Nye, and Richard Dawkins didn’t see it, it doesn’t exist.
No, that’s what horrifies my brother.
A$$hole.
I want you to go to your Bible and find every instance where a demon was seen.
Demons possess, they don’t wander around like peeping toms.
Order the demonic out in the name of Jesus Christ. Now this does require the confidence that you believe what you order.
Demons cannot withstand the Name and power of Jesus. Walk around your home, pleading His precious blood as you pray for protection. Then walk through every room of your home and do the same. Each day proclaim that Jesus protects you. He does and He will. Never forget Whose you are. Be confident that the Lord is with you and share that confidence with brother and son. May God give you strength and peace.
I didnt see Howdy Doodie till it was in reruns, but it scared me as a kid.
Have you seen the posts here? Sorry if I offended you, but there are lot of non believers here, which is why I said what I stated.
I would advise taking shelter of the Lord’s name, there are many described in the Bible. Praying using His names aloud. Reciting prayers aloud. Reciting Psalms aloud.
If you are Catholic, I would pray the rosary aloud.
I pray using the Lord’s names daily (a different tradition).
His names are stronger than any darkness or evil, without any doubt or comparison. Just as the sun is not only stronger than darkness, it destroys darkness; when the sun is present, there is no darkness. Darkness is only where the sun is absent.
Do not focus on “where have we gone wrong” or wondering or figuring out what is wrong with any particular person. Just focus on the strength, love, mercy and glory of the Good Lord. He wants to protect us all, we just need to beg from our hearts for His protection.
I have seen terrible things myself, usually asleep but sometimes awake. Not any more.
Yea I read that too, a few drive by comments from the militant atheists\agnostic ignoramuses. Their towering intellects can't be bothered with G*d or the supernatural, that's for us simpletons.
He asked “what if he doesn't”. I told him to go higher.
Livius, as always, I find your comments to be the most perceptive on the thread.
having lived in Southern Africa, I can attest to the truth of this. Life there is about placating the unseen world, and attributing most incidents of life to their activity, thereby absolving the individual of any responsibility. However, as you have stated, Demons are real, and I state this with real empathy for NoGrayZone.
