To make a long story short.... as a child, my brother saw a demon outside our window (back then you had to have the tv by a window because of heat generated). He saw this demon "dancing" around our window. He has been plagued w/ nothing but horror.
Now, in these days, he has over come his demons; however, his first born son has seen this demon, a few months ago, outside his window. His first born son described to him ( at first reluctant that he would not be believed) the same thing my brother saw as a child. My brother was stunned.
We need help. I truly believe in satan and his demons to be as real as we are. What can we do? Who do we turn to?
Some may see this as nonsense, but we are living this in real life. Can anyone help us or at least lead us to someone who can help?
Good. The Orthodox practice is to have our house blessed every year before Great Lent.
I don't? Sez who?
There are haunted places, and then there are haunted people. And these things will always target the weakest - mostly prepubescent girls if they are part of the family, but always the weakest. The fact that the demon has not only been hanging around your brother since he was a child but is now showing itself to your brother's child tells me that this thing has attached itself to him and his family.
It will not stop and the torment will escalate until your brother's family is destroyed. It will not just go away on it's own and it will not be ignored. This will get worse and worse without some kind of help.
I don't know what Christian denomination your family are affiliated with, but you need to go to either your priest or pastor and tell them what is going on. Do not stop seeking help until someone listens to you and believes you and is willing to help you.
Satan is real and demons are real and, like Scripture says, these things roam the earth, looking for whom they may devour. You definitely have a problem, it is very real, and your family is in danger.
Seek help immediately. It's the only way you will be able to get rid of this thing. Oh, and start praying for Jesus to intervene and deliver you from this, and keep praying and don't stop praying until this demon has been driven out.
Also, if you don't mind, and you remember, please FReepmail me with your progress. I will pray for you also.
Heh.
Demonic forces engage in a full range of behavior from intense possession to annoying temptations.
Always remember that we can command them to leave “in the name of Jesus” and they must obey. The other thing to remember is that Satan and his demons will not stay around during praise and worship of God the Father. A Spirit filled Christian will not ever be indwelt by demons. The two can not co-habitat.
The age of speaking in tongues has passed. It was an inferior gift to begin with. The times of miracles and demons as were common in Christ’s time has passed.
The Apostles and all who were directly gifted by the Holy Spirit have passed away. Yes, we have Spiritual gifts today, and yes, we fight against the spiritual forces of evil.
Just not in the same way folks did 2000 yearts ago.
ding, ding!!! We Have a Winner!!!!!!!
We were raised Lutheran. However, there was this “little spirit thing” that would show itself to us, but not in the same house.
My brother saw this demon when we lived in the Bronx. We saw this “little demon thing” after we moved to Long Island. My sister, brother, cousin and I saw the damn thing.
The group chosen needs to be willing to come to the house as well as to train your brother and his family in how to stand against such forces.
There’s a worse situation if deliverance occurs and the humans lay down on the job and pretend nothing similar will return to test the waters to see if the cleaned out house can be crowded with more demonic forces—recall the example in Scripture.
The books mentioned can give him a head start while he asks around about who locally to contact with a quality reputation in that area.
It doesn’t, imho, matter so much what the denomination is as long as the leaders have a reputation for truly walking IN HOLY SPIRIT’S ANOINTING AND POWER WITH SOLID BALANCED BIBLICAL TEACHING and lack of flakiness.
See post 147.
I’m responding seriously.
I’ve never seen demons, but I have had experiences that can’t be explained with rational explanations. To address your problem by telling about myself, then: One year my family moved to Covelo, California, next to the Round Valley Indian Reservation. The first night spent in the valley I had a powerful dream that I was in the forest with people shooting me, and I suddenly saw one of those green freeway signs with the words “Exit 373.” The next day we visited the reservation museum, where they had an exhibit about the number of Native people moved to that spot by the Army. There were 373 people moved there. For more than one year I had angry, bloody, violent dreams which would often awaken me in the middle of the night, something that had never happened before. When we left that place, the dreams vanished. Explanation? Maybe Jung was right about the collective unconsciousness impressing itself on the land. And, in the same vein, maybe Christianity - and other religions - are right about malevolent forces which interfere with humanity.
Frankly, I would move. In any case, we will pray for peacefulness in your life, wherever that comes from. And please accept my apologies that the inner demons of some people here torment you with poorly placed jokes and jabs.
Good luck to your brother. Please keep us posted, OK? Prayers out to all.
If they are dealing with a demon, it is not that simple to just pray it away. These are very tricky creatures. They are decievers and liars. Gray really needs to get professional assistance. No person without training in demonology should even attempt to confront a demon. You can make matters worse.
I’m a good shrink
He obviously needs someone specializing in a deliverance ministry to deal with the demonic forces.
I would argue that any country that allows (encourages in some cases) a woman to pay someone to slaughter the child in her womb is riddled with demon possessed.
Who is Joyce Meyers?
I appreciate your sentiment.
Paul said he thanked God that Paul spoke in tongues more than all the rest.
Your interpretation of I Cor 12-14 is grossly flawed.
This is still the New Testament era.
Satan hasn’t changed.
humans haven’t changed.
God hasn’t changed.
Human need hasn’t changed.
Are you a demon hunter? What weapons do you use.....purely spiritual?
