Thank you for your website. You have quite a resource in the area of Spiritual Warfare and Deliverance. I am still reading through it, but I appreciate what you have read, thus far. I am a former satanist and work with helping those come out of the occult. There is much misinformation in the body of Christ concerning this area. Be blessed!

I thought when I was healed I would be full of joy and happily derving Jesus . Instead I go for a few days without pain to feeling pain . I have been praying almost every single day , I pray for Jesus to protect me and to fix me totally and to make me love Him , I do not want to fear Him , I want to trust Him and love Him .I pray that He make me love Him with all my heart soul and mind . I pray that He teach me His ways His character and lead me in a staight path . I pray He give me revelation knowledge and help me to understand the bible . I pray for Him to change me and make me like Him . I pray He take care of me and make me secure and to know I am secure and safe .
ReplyDeleteI wonder why I do not feel safe yet . I was complaining yesterday , I feel unable , not strong enough to go out . I have been isolating , something is making me feel scared to be around people , weak not strong enough . I was reading yesterday about all people eventually getting to heaven , that the translaters translated some words wrong , I was hoping this was true and started talking to Mike about it what they said , then Mike was trying to talk me into going to church and I was making excuses because I feel scared , he was saying you cant do this on my own and I was saying even if I go to church I am still on my own because I have no social abilities and my ability to connect seems less now than before I got sick . I was feeling fustrated that though I am praying I do not seem to be getting more secure and more joy and trust in Jesus .
Before I realized it I realized I was feeling hurt at everyone and Jesus , I was crying . I almost said if Jesus does not answer me at home He will not answer me at church and I caught myself and said He will hear and answer from anywhere . Then this condemnation came over me horrible and scary . I went to read on the internet for comfort and the site I found made me feel worse . I am so tired of feeling scared , wondering if I am evil , wondering if I am truly safe in Jesus . I wonder if I am going to do say think or feel something that will make me lose salvation . salvation depends on faith and trust in Jesus and knowing Him and loving Him .
I pray for these things . I cannot change myself I can only ask Jesus to change me . Does these feelings thoughts fear prove I am bad ? How can I make them stop ? Am I on dangerous ground? Am I being rebellious in my heart and do not know it ? Is my lack of faith grieving to God , I want faith I want to be safe . I alwys cry when I think He loves me . What has done this to my faith ? Am I rebellious , sinful , mentally screwed up , I want more than the torment gone , I want my faith full restored , any rebellion gone , to love Jesus the way I am supposed to . Please answer my questions and pray for me and help me . Please help understand whats wrong with me . Jesus bless you.
May the Lord, the righteous Judge who is ultimately the one in control, intervene and prevail over your case.

This page is a chapter with deliverance and healing principles for the wounded spirit. Just as our bodies develop wounds or injuries when we fall down (depending on the severity of the fall) our spiritual (unseen) bodies also develop wounds or injuries when we experience unpleasant matters in life. “A man’s spirit sustains him in sickness, but a crushed spirit who can bear?” Proverbs 18:14
A crushed spirit needs healing just as a physical body needs to be healed from a wound to function properly and without pain. The chapter has the rest of the details.
We also have lots of helpful resources and books on deliverance principles (such as on prayer and fasting) that you can read online at www.SpiritualWarfareDeliverance.com. Please do make use of our online resources.
May the Lord fulfill his deliverance and healing work in your life. Best wishes and prayers for you and your family.

a friend’s girlfriend kept seeing what she believed was a ghost, but before long the “ghost” began taking over her for breif periods, taking over her voice and actions. the “ghost” eventually began to communicat with my friend, and affecting the urges of friends.
ReplyDeleteEventually a christian friend prayed to GOd, and the events ceased. My friend is not a christian, but is now agnostic. he wonders, 1. will the demon return, and two, how to stop it?
Can you give my friend and i some insight
Greetings,
ReplyDeleteIt’s so sad to learn that your friend is no longer a Christian. Many of us seasoned Christians have gone through an experience that almost took us out of the faith.
The only insight I can give you is based on the bible which your friend may now consider to be of little or no value. It’s quite strange that after receiving deliverance through prayer from your Christian friend that your agnostic friend did not totally embrace Christianity. But you probably know better the details on what resulted in leaving Christianity.
According to the Bible it is through Jesus and his work on the cross we receive God’s mercy and deliverance. Jesus was sent to rescue us from paying the penalty of our sins and to overcome the work of the Satan against us. That is why we have such amazing scriptures like:
* “In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding,” Ephesians 1:7-8.
* “Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need,” Hebrews 4:16
*“The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work,”1Jn3:8
That is why your friend was able to receive freedom when your Christian friend prayed for your other friend. “The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects,” James 5:16. “The Lord is far from the wicked, but He hears the prayer of the righteous,” Proverbs 15:29.
This is not to imply God hates non-believers. He loves everyone in this world (that’s why he sent Jesus for everyone) but he does not like the sin and unbelief in us. According to the Bible, which for our ministry is our foundation (and the foundation for Christianity) the only refuge for everyone is following God’s principles. Our principles do not have any power over unseen forces.
Better end here. Please go to the following page for more info (You can copy the link and insert it in the address bar of your browser): http://www.jesusw.com/christian-living-spiritual-growth/t09-bible-study-old-testament-new-testament/html/power-of-word-of-god.html
This page covers on the power of the bible and thus God’s principles. We also have lots of helpful resources and books that you can read online at www.JesusW.com and www.SpiritualWarfareDeliverance.com. Please do make use of our online resources.

I am staying in Munich/Germany - am now 47 years old, have got a job at Telemarketing - and - first of all - I am believing in the Lord Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and saviour since about 15 years.
ReplyDeleteI am happy that I found your homepage "by fortune" (by JESUS!) and I am struggling and fighting mainly with myselfe.
Meanwhile it means even a problem to me to summ up the several bondages I am in now ( sorry for my bad english) - and I am hardly able, to interpretate my condition - so I wana simply summ up the main symptoms I am fighting with ( and I need to say, that I am close before stopping to fight):
-There is almost no more motivation in me, to act ANYHOW - somtimes I am sitting for hours at home, knowing exactly that I HAD to do so many things - but in deed I am kind of fixed, with unvisible chains
-I lost abilities during the last 3 years (in a rapid way): Playing Piano (I had been in worship-team years before), Singing (what now comes out of me is horrible), Sceduling (whatever)
-Since about 7 years now I become spiritually attacked in an always repeating way (an I only can ask you from the bottom of my heart to take it seriously, what I describe you - although it may sound unbelievable): it is a feeling, as if I would be connected to a high-voltage line - this catches me always flat-footed and usually after (or WHILE) the Lord Jesus Christ tries to give me some gift, some deliverance, a word....and this "Voltage" ALWAYS(!)passes through my body, HEART (!) and soul (I experience this physically and spiritually at the same time) - entering always at my right foot (although this may sound perhapes crazy - but it is the truth!!), passing through me until "it" reaches my heart and then this kind of energy ends up at (in) my mind (brain). I experience this happening regulary like an electic shock.
The very result of this what happened (I only can describe it):
-Forgetting the word(s), the Lord Jesus talked to me
-Disorientation
-Coldness (as if my heart and inner man would have been already died)
-Depression, Hopelesness
-A strong feeling of UNCLEANNESS afterward.
As a longterm result of these "attacks" I need to state that my mental and spiritual freshness and sanity suffered extremely
-Last year my dad died in his high 80s. He was (as far as I can rate him) no christian - he had been involved in his younger years in a german pagan fraternity (had been member there) - also he had experiences with autogenic training, scribology and had been preconditioned in a certain occult direction. He showed (particulary during his last year here on earth) a very bad temper and a formally bad and evil charisma around him. He was TOTALLY dependent in my mom - and dad had had 3 strokes (as my grandpa also had and died from).
(By the way - I also have tendency to strokes)
After my dads death last year in July I exprienced, that I took on this bad and evil temper I saw at my dad (rudimentally I had a disposition to this, even before he dies) - I also took on the tendency of becoming dependent in a extreme way (as if dependency would be a kind of inner call) - .... - in short it seems to me, as if I would have become the beneficiary of my dad (I am the first borne of two brothers) - but not of the good things - the bad and cumbering stuff only.
After my dad´s death I didn´t get anything (except old clothes my mom ofered me) - but no heritage. Instead of this I became dads spiritual heritage and I DON´T WANT IT!!!!
At the same time I also don´t wana accuse or disrespect my dad. I ask the Lord Jesus to forgive me and him!
-I got heavy problems with smoking and internet pornography
-I got problems at my job - they mobbed me (startin up last year and with no ent ´till now) -
-One of my main problems: I DON´T RECOGNIZE MYSELFE ANYMORE!!! SOMETIMES IT SEEMS TO ME, AS IF I WOULD BE A STRANGER TO ME, AND AS IF THE TRUE I WOULD HAVE DIED B E F O R E MY DAD DIED.
(the wife of an american christian friend of mine had had a dream last year, that I would have DIED - and her husbynd and another friend of us would come to Munich, seeking after me - and that people would tell them, that I died recently...
-I got a deaf and dumb spirit and a spirit of slumber.
-My Landlord is Catholic - he blelieves in the Queen of heavens and in this house is a spiritual athmosphere like in a cemetry. Everywhere on the walls there are hanging dried bunches of Roses - the athmosphere takes so much power away from me - and I somehow can´t leave.
I would be VERY blessed and happy if you could pray in my case and if you would like to answer!!
Since it is vitally important for me since I don´t know, how to continue living. I know, that I also have some responsibility for my life - well - I try to take it - if possible. In some cases I am hiding - this is true!! Particulary concerning my financial situation, my living-circumstances.
Sometimes I also realize, that I am fighting against my own.
I would be glad to hear from you!!!!
May the Lord intervene and prevail over your case.

QUESTIONS FOR ERIC GONDWE
ReplyDeleteHello! My name is Christoffer and Im from sweden!
I have some questions conserning Warfare and Deliverance ministry.
1. Is deliverance of evil spirits (or influences) something that can happened over a time without notecing it, through learning to trust in God, geting things sorteted out with a psychoterapeut or by understanding more of Gods love/grace etc (through teachings)? Does it allways have to be a whole lot of shouting and you know... maybe deliverance ministry is a much bigger deal than just rebukning spirits?
2. Do you know about Graham Powewll (who's is a very nice guy) teaching and what do you thinka about that from an evangelical view?
3. What is important to think about if you feel lika the lord has put deliverance/healing and help people to get to know his overflowing grace and love on your heart?
Im going to buy your book as fast as possible!
Take care and God bless!
/Christoffer
Dear Christoffer,
ReplyDeleteThank you for writing and taking the right approach - to buy the book. Much prayer, fasting, time and effort resulted in the immense biblical principles being shared in the books. All three answers can be answered by reading the books, including what Graham Powell teaches.
I’ve not read any of his books or material but if you have and you read any of my books on spiritual warfare and deliverance principles you’ll know where he stands. My books cover on the do’s and don’ts, what works and what doesn’t, what’s biblical and what’s not, thus enabling believers to distinguish biblical principles from erroneous teachings.
Third Editions are now available in two separate books, one on Spiritual Warfare Principles and another on Christian Deliverance Principles.
Another book, Healing the Wounded Spirit will be out soon. It came of a chapter in the book on deliverance principles after the content became too extensive for a single chapter.
Thanks again. Best wishes and prayers for you and your family.

This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it -- and I am! Finding your website is like finding a stream in the desert. I am praying, after reading many posts and your kind and discerning responses, that I may find answers at last. I have been a follower of Jesus for many years, but to look at my life -- who would know? I pray that God will protect anyone who reads this from harm -- I have been aware of the presence of God in my life since I was a young child, and I believe it was He who preserved me during all the times I was sexually abused as a child. The results of this abuse have continued to follow me through the next 50 years, although God has been faithful to me at all times. I was at one time married to a once godly man, who fell away and is now a Buddhist. We have two children, and both professed faith in Christ at a young age. One is a follower yet, and the other is yoked to an unbeliever. So why am I here? I know God intends so much more for my life. I believe He wants to me to be victorious. I believe in my heart that he wants me healthy, happy, my body to be his temple -- and pleasing to Him and to me-- I have been so besought with sexual sin in the past. I have confessed and repented, confessed and repented. I have remained apart from men for the past three years. Is it possible that God could ever heal my sexual self? Is it possible that God could ever lead me into a positive relationship with a man that brings Him glory, and does not leave me feeling defiled, demeaned, and dismembered? Is there hope for such deliverance? Is there any hope that God could deliver me from my lying tongue? It seems to simply serve to make me look like I am surviving better than I am -- so I sound like I am successful when inside I am floundering. I have attempted to hurt myself in the past -- all the while crying out to God to help me. At tmes I can get so very close to my Heavenly Father -- and then something happens, and you would think I had joined the Unbeliever's side all over again. I am failing miserably at spiritual warfare, and I feel I need deliverance from my lying tongue, my sexual sin, my financial failures, my low self-esteem. I want so much to be a reflection of a glorious, victorious Jesus -- He really has done so much for me -- and my life looks like a disaster. Where do I begin? Back on my knees? That's usually the first place to start...
ReplyDeleteDear Ultra,
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing person you are: Still putting your trust in God in spite of all the severe storms you’ve experienced in your personal life and in your family. May the Lord continue keeping you as his child and may he deliver you from all storms and trials.
In a brief note such as this all that can be said is similar to other responses: please fully utilize our free online resources. Please use the search bar for needed content at Jesus Work's websites (JesusW.com and SpiritualWarfareDeliverance.com (they're interlinked)). Most of the answers are right there online and where necessary we have books you can purchase to read offline.
You mentioned “failing miserably at spiritual warfare.” We have more than enough resources on succeeding in spiritual warfare, the true biblical spiritual warfare that has stood the test of time since the early church apostles (Peter, Paul, Stephen, James, John, etc).
We also hope you’re aware of the erroneous spiritual warfare teachings that bring more harm than good. Our website, SpiritualWarfareDeliverance.com, has lots of resources that would help you to clearly distinguish the two.
Where do you begin? You have the right answer: Back on your knees? It is indeed our first place to start, seeking God’s intervention in our lives. Then we move on to applying what he requires on our part to play –obeying his word, knowing and applying the liberating truths hidden in God's word (instead of perishing for lack of knowledge), etc.
"The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables," Luke 8:10.
"If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free," John 8:31-32. etc.
May the Lord fulfill his deliverance and healing work in your life. Best wishes and prayers for you and your family.

I am a christian who was very luke warm for a number of years. I also fell into extreme fear in my life through a very bad experience I had while in college. Ever since then I have had chronic headaches. I have begun to recognize that these headaches are demonic because often I am attacked by a demon in the night that "pins" me down in my sleep. I awake the next day with a terrible headache. I have recently, turned my heart back to Jesus wholeheartedly, and am pursuing a faith filled life however these demonic attacks have increased. I believed this to be because the devil is mad at my turning back to the Lord. I have tried all the various methods taught including rebuking the demon, pleading the blood of Jesus, etc. but without success thus far. I am not sure what to do but have read your website with interest. When I am being pinned down by this demonic influence what should I be doing? Should I not call on the name of Jesus for help? Is is unscriptural to plead his blood over me when the attack comes? I am interested in your thoughts on this. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteGreetings in Christ's name,
ReplyDeleteMay God the Father and the Deliverer from all demonic works fight your battles. May he equip you with all understanding in doing your part of positioning yourself to enable him to fight for you.
We hope you've been taking the time to go through our online resources and books on spiritual warfare and deliverance principles. We trust you'll find answers to your questions. We're only to briefly address matters here.
Your question: When I am being pinned down by this demonic influence what should I be doing?
Answer: Keep focusing on God as your deliverer, walking uprightly, walking in love, forgiveness, charity, and so on.
God is our deliverer from all demonic works. "Deliver us from the evil one," Matthew 6:12-13 (NIV, ASV, NKJV, BBE). We're to keep seeking his intervention as Christians in times of trouble. We're also to search for any doorways that may be allowing some demonic works to operate in our lives.
Your question: Should I not call on the name of Jesus for help?
Answer: Most certainly. It is through Christ that we're able to receive God's intervention. That's why we pray in Jesus' name. So it's scriptural to call on the name of Jesus for help, anytime, anywhere.
Your question: Is it unscriptural to plead his blood over me when the attack comes?
Answer: Yes it's unscriptural to plead the blood of Jesus over yourself. However, however, however (to make emphasis) there is nothing wrong with doing it. It is unscriptural in the sense that it's not in the bible. The bible commissions Christians to take communion (breaking the bread and the wine/water) symbolizing Christ's redemptive work, our partaking of his nature, etc. Taking communion is biblical and thus has spiritual value in the spirit realm.
Pleading the blood of Jesus over ourselves is not in the bible and likely has no spiritual value in the spirit realm. It's just a mere ritual. However, however, however (to make emphasis again) there is nothing wrong with doing it.
The doctrine of pleading the blood of Jesus over ourselves likely came as a result of some believers in the body of Christ taking principles on rituals of blood sacrifices in the Old Testament and assuming they apply to the New Testament. In the Old Testament they sacrificed animals as ultimate sacrifices in order receive God's mercy, intervention and fellowship. Sometimes the blood was sprinkled on priests and other consecrated items. Because Jesus became our blood sacrifice some in the body of Christ assume we're to invoke his blood to ensure his blood is covering our lives.
Please read more on this topic, even from bible encyclopedias, because it'll help you understand the place of the blood of Jesus in our lives. There people out there speaking out of emotions showing they've not read the bible on matters they're using emotions.
Having said that you're not in any danger pleading the blood of Jesus over yourself. It is when you begin to use the blood of Jesus to go after evil spirits that you basically set yourself up for needless harm. While evil spirits were defeated by Christ's work and his shedding of his blood they know the boundaries that Christ's blood applies in the spirit realm. They also know the boundaries that we have legal grounds to directly confront them.
When we cross our boundaries and assume we're divinely empowered to directly confront demons outside our boundaries is when trouble starts. The spirit realm is a realm that is governed by more laws than the laws we have as humans on earth. Breaking spiritual laws is not a wise thing especially when evil spirits can easily take advantage for a violation.
Please arm yourself with appropriate information on matters you're confronting. It is knowing the truth that sets us free. "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free," John 8:32.
Evil spirits love to take advantage in areas we're ignorant. Ignorance is an open door for them to feast on us. "My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge," Hosea 4.6.
A good start in equipping yourself with appropriate information on matters you're confronting is taking the time to go through our online resources and books on spiritual warfare and deliverance principles. There are also lots of bible based websites, ministries, books and audios out there.
May the Lord fulfill his deliverance and healing work in your life. Best wishes and prayers for you and your family.

check out my web site on a book I wrote in 2000 based on my experiences in the Army's ranger school.

ReplyDeleteCan a Christian be possessed by a demon?
The very phrasing of this question is unfortunate. The question is usually asked in a derogatory manner by those who totally reject the idea that a born-again Christian could ever be troubled or afflicted by a demon.
The problem revolves around the use of the word possessed, a word that suggests the demon totally inhabits and owns the sufferer with no area free and with free will absolutely blocked.
I do not believe a born-again Christian can be possessed by a demon. They very idea of a Christian who loves the Lord being owned and controlled by a demon is totally abhorrent and unacceptable. If Christians would abandon the use of this confusing word “possessed” and speak of demon problem in terms of “oppressions,” “vexations,” or “bindings,” believers would avoid a lot of confusion.

I am dying a slow physical, emotional and financial death. I would appreciate any prayers or words of encouragement. Please agree, support and minister to me in prayer. This places my spirit at ease. Please e-mail me back, this provides me with a physical point of contact. I really need a spectacular and supernatural miracle from God the Father through Christ my Saviour. Thank you and God bless you. Please pray the attached prayer for me.
ReplyDeleteIf you or someone else requires assistance, I claim the WORD OF GOD that states clearly that we are victorious through the PRECIOUS BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST. May the LORD bless you, keep you and shine his love upon you. May you experience the love, health, victory, prosperity and abundance through the majesty of JESUS CHRIST through the GOD of ISRAEL and POWERFUL HOLY GHOST. AMEN.

I have just found this site. I read the book "defeating dark angels" by Charles H Kraft, finding it very helpful.
ReplyDeleteI ask that people please pray for my family. I realize that the man I married is infected with fear, along with paranoia and depression and anger; he is also affected by reiki and marijauna, and a woman who claims she was 'trained as a satanic high priestess' and 'satanically ritually abused'. He behaves as though he is under some kind of spell, doing and saying whatever she orders - very disturbing.
This woman molested our daughter, physically and with reiki and maybe her younger brother, and got her daddy to neglect her big brother. The chidren and I are being attacked and slandered by her and her best friend. Their daddy is slandering himself! My children have been brought up christian, and their daddy took delight in bringing people to christ.
When I comlained about this woman molesting my daughter, the womans co-worker and best friend took my three children from me and gave them to this woman. The children were terrified, even the oldest soiling himself at seven years in their presence.
These two women are in DHS, and it has been made very clear that the reason they are slandering my family is because I complained about this woman molesting my daughter (I repeated exactly what the then 4 yr child had said!) because I breastfed the children as babies, because we are vegetarian, and because we are christian. My oldest has been standing up for his mother, his siblings, and God. And he has been verbally and physically attacked for doing so.
On a physical, non spiritual ground, none of this makes sense.
If anyone has had experience with deliverance concerning SRA, reiki, the craft, and deep spiritual bondage; as this is what my family is contending, I would welcome positive feedback and prayers.

Hello how r u, my name is Danny. Firstly i want to say thank u so much for this website. U are really doing great work for GOD! I stumbled upon this website recently whilst searching for scriptures on the internet that would help me to breakthrough my addiction to pornography.. i have been viewing it since a very young boy, im now 23 yrs old an it is stronger than ever in my life... I know that im not the only man that struggles with it and i believe many many Christian men are in the same boat as me! .... but I've tried so much to break away from this terrible sick addiction... i hate it... i always cry out to God to set me free..... what else can i do? why are so many Christian men addicted to porn and why is it not being addressed?
ReplyDeleteOne more thing... i noticed somebody wrote on your website about being pinned down by the devil while in bed or sleeping... this is significant for me because two other people have also mentioned to me personally that they have been held down by the devil in the sleep or in bed. i have never heard of this in the churches or in the bible or anything? is this common? what is it? these two people were not Christians at the time of these attacks but both were considering becoming Christians and both had joined with me for prayer at certain times.... also both of them had Buddhist backgrounds... BUT they never seriously practiced Buddhism..
Just read through "Spritual Warfare Book 1". Thank you soooo much. I have actually been afraid to pray for four years now nor have I been attending church. My husband and I have weekly devotions together. That's it. Have lost trust in the institution of church.
ReplyDeleteI was called to a ministry of prayer but because of so much misinformation I was just completely beaten down and devistated as my life went from bad to worse and worse still. My only prayers for the last four years have been simply to Thank God for His grace and mercy and to help me to understand what went wrong.
The harder I prayed for my loved ones the more they got beat up and the worse I got beat up.
I definitely have some processing to do...but I think I can attempt once again the ministry that I was called to with a better perspective. Thanks again and God bless you.

Hi. I have recently read through the first two books re: spiritual warfare. After reading the first one I bawled, repented and have since told everyone I've encountered about a bit of truth that has set me free.
ReplyDeleteMy Christian life has been wrapped up in prayer ministry i.e. intercessory prayer. I was greatly influenced by Dutch Sheets, Cleansing Stream, Lila Terhune of Brownsville and other similar teacherss. I was ferocious in prayer. Unfortunately, the people I prayed for were literally beat up and I was physically, emotionally and spiritually drained and disheartened. For the past four years I have been afraid to pray beyond simple requests and prayers of thanksgiving but I have enjoyed a rest so my conclusion was.."if I don't pray I enjoy peace, if I intercede, all hell breaks loose and things get worse...so what's the point?
At any rate I have been questioning a lot of things and lately have been asking God for some answers. I wanted to know what went wrong...then I found your site. I will have to study it out for myself but it makes sense to me and explains a lot. Not to mention the amazing sense of freedom. I am not afraid to pray anymore but I am still terrified of addressing powers of darkness in any way, shape or form.
So..I have been going through some of my reading material to see what I should discard. Dutch Sheets in his book "Intercessory prayer" uses Mt 16: 19 and claims that we, in the body of Christ are "enforcers of the victory. By interceding we create meetings. We meet with God on behalf of another...nothing wrong there and we also meet the powers of darkness. So I guess, now I have a question. If we are allowed to come boldly before the throne of grace to petition God with our requests...is not the enemy also there with his counter petition like in a court of law? Wait..I think I know the answer..Even if Satan is there countering we still address "the Judge", Satan also addresses "the judge" addresses "the judge" and "the judge makes a ruling". I do not have the responsibility of enforcing the ruling however and if I address Satan directly or vice versa then one of us is "in contempt".
Dutch Sheets and other make compelling arguments though with their stories of awesome miracles and deliverances and healings. After my experiences of utter and dismal failure and in light of this teaching I wonder how these stories could even be true.
I need help. I just heard the Lord tell me to, "Pray it through. Pray it through. There are many dangers awaiting you. Pray it through!"
ReplyDeleteI've been going through numerous battles lately and they are intensifying. I have also been fasting, watching & praying.
Can anyone tell me what - pray it through - means?
Thank you and God bless you
I thank you for your site. It is a great help to me at this turning point in my life. I was raised a Christain and turned away in search for something more.What I know now is that what I was really searching for was control. I was invovled with witchcraft for 17 years and recently ask Christ back into my life. At the time I was so frustrated with the church and looking for something deeper. Now I realize I did not have a personal relation with Christ even as a child. Now I do. I need prayer. The people I hung around with are not happy about this. People I thought I knew as friends. I admit I was stupid,I admit my sin,I ask forgiveness and call on the blood of Christ to help me. But there are still problems. A kind of residue if you will. Within me and around me. Leftovers from my dark and sinful journey. So I come to ask for prayer and any support I can find. Thank you for reading my post.
ReplyDeleteIs there anyone that can verify Rebecca Browns story? There are lots of sites showing discrepancies, errors, etc in her books. Just curious to hear the other side, if there is one.
ReplyDeleteDear Chris,
ReplyDeleteThe following is an excerpt from the book Major Spiritual Warfare Principles: Biblical Do’s and Don’ts of Warfare.
It covers on Rebecca Brown's misinterpreted teachings on spiritual warfare. It also covers on how she found victory by praying to God instead of bombarding evil spirits:
In their book, Unbroken Curses, Rebecca Brown and her husband, Daniel Yoder, discuss how after all the “spiritual warfare” of direct confronta-tion failed they decided to approach God as the Supreme Judge. All their attempts to directly confront and bombard the evil spirit world failed until the strategy was changed to indirect confrontation. They decided to approach God to act on her behalf.
In the last chapter of Unbroken Curses titled “The Final Court of Ap-peal,” she says, “There just isn’t enough time or space for me to tell you all the wonderful things the Lord has performed in our lives since the night I visited the courtroom of the Judge of the Universe. Daniel 7:21-22 has truly been fulfilled in our lives. (In this chapter, Daniel was given a vision of the nations and rulers to come. The rulers were represented by horns. The last ruler was represented by a horn, which is Satan.)”
Daniel 7:21-22: “As I watched, this horn was waging war against the saints and defeating them, until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came when they possessed the kingdom,”
Dr. Brown says, “Dear reader, are you struggling just as we were? Do you know that God has called you to do a specific task for him, but Satan has been blocking you from doing it? If you have no legal grounds (i.e. legal doorways) in your life for Satan to attack you, then I would suggest that you consider going before the Judge of the Universe.” (p. 171).
She says, “In the time since we have learned this very powerful tool of spiritual warfare, we have met a number of people who have been in the same position of discouragement we were. God does not want His people to live a life of defeat and discouragement! He placed us here on planet earth to possess and control it. We are to be owners, not renters!…
“When you, the reader have done everything you know to do…perhaps you need to go before the Judge of the Universe…He has made provision for us so that we can walk in victory and bring the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ to the lost and dying world,” (p173-174).
In her book, Brown narrates her appeal to God in a chapter titled, “The Final Court of Appeal.” It is a petition to God for his intervention against the works of the enemy. The victories that followed resolved matters that all her “spiritual warfare” of direct confrontation failed to bring.
What Brown did not realize is that approaching God to judge every case in our favor is how we’re intended to deal with the enemy. It is indirect spiritual warfare, yet powerful and fully backed by scripture. That is why it worked in her case and continues to work in all of us who go before God’s throne of grace through Christ.
She thus tried all the direct confrontation attempts and they brought no victory – attempts of bombarding evil spirits, rebuking them, binding them, pulling down strongholds, etc. Then finally she turned to indirect confrontation which is approaching God to fight on her behalf. And she found her victory. That says on its own what works and what doesn’t, what’s biblical and what’s not.
Brown’s narration of a prayer of appeal is not anything unusual. Prayer is our access to God, our heavenly Father. It’s as simple as that. Our prayers to God present to him our need for him to fight our battles. He never told us to go after evil spirits over matters we face. He told us to seek him, to ask him, to appeal to him, to entrust ourselves to him, to do our part of walking in love, righteousness, etc.
Thus God’s intervention through prayers says a lot about what the Lord requires of us in moments of crisis. Throughout the bible prayers of appeal have proved to be the true spiritual warfare and deliverance prayers. Earnestly appealing to God, sometimes with fasting, during times of need has time and again proved to be the only solution.
The entire book by Brown’s advocates for the erroneous spiritual war-fare teachings that call for direct confrontation with Satan. Then at the book’s end its focus shifts to God. After majoring on bombarding evil spirits and being obsessed by them it shifts to seeking God’s intervention. Seeking God’s intervention through prayer is our true spiritual warfare. That’s why it works. It’s indirect spiritual warfare and it’s what God prescribed for us. His prescrip-tion is unstoppable when applied.
The other forms of direct warfare that bombard evil spirits are our in-vention. They came through the enemy misquoting scripture to some of us in the body of Christ. That’s why they do not work and if they ever do, they have no lasting results. They open doors for worse problems in other areas of our lives. I and countless others in evangelical circles followed them to our peril. It’s such a blessing to be rescued from such scriptural misinterpretation on spiritual warfare principles.
No need to buy her book just to read her prayer of appeal. In case you’d like to read a prayer of appeal an example of one is available in this book. Please see Appendix 1: Deliverance, Healing and Restoration Prayer.
Besides, reading a prayer made by someone else is not the key to vic-tory. What brings victory is applying the required biblical principles in one’s area of concern. It is walking with God in such a way that having done our part of applying his will enables him to fight our battles. More content on this area is in my other book Major Christian Deliverance Principles: Keys for Self-deliverance and Ministry. It covers in detail on foundational deliverance and healing principles in various areas of our lives. There is a major chapter on prayer and fasting that you’ll find to be blessing in your Christian life.
In Christ's work,

ReplyDeleteI am having great difficulty with my mother, trying to convince her that demons can live inside us. she believes that once we are saved that they can't enter us. i tell her that it is not Biblical, and that the Holy Spirit lives in our spirit, not inhabitating our entire body. she has extreme emotional problems, never wants to leave her room, extreme anxiety, and very defensive when i approach her about the subject. i know the enemy is in her and i hear the lies that the devil uses when she counter argues. how can i make a strong enough case to her? i want her to understand fundamentally, with her being raised Baptist and always opposed to any reference to the Pentacost, something she ignores altogether. she flat out sais "I dont' believe demons can enter believers' bodies"
ReplyDeleteWe are 3 part beings , Spirit Soul & Body . If and i will say IF a person is Saved and Gods spirit dwells in them they a considered a Christian . Their spirit is bought by the blood of Jesus ! Demons can not be present there . but the body & soul are there play grounds . I have been conducting deliverance's for 35 years , We will not deliver a non believer , deliverance is for the believer read the scripture . A great site for your mom is Great bible study .com you will learn things you have not been taught in church ........
DeleteHosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge ( most people stop reading here) BECAUSE thou has rejected knowledge. ! Having a form of godliness but DENYING the power , from such turn away . 2 Timothy 3:4
Its time for mom to look around .....Jesus came to heal the sick raise the dead cleanse the leaper , heal the broken hearted and set the captives free ! if her church isn't doing these things JESUS did ........she best run ! Forget your friends at church they are`nt going to answer to God for Your actions . This is the day " The kingdom of Heaven is at hand "

ReplyDeleteI need to say, be very wary of some deliverance ministries. I was under a lot of attack by spirits and those in the occult, and really needed a lot of prayer. I decided to try out ‘Shepherds Heart’ in Canberra & Moss Vale Australia. John and Glenys Darnell run it, who supposedly ‘help’ others get ‘free’ from spiritual attacks and psychic intrusions, and I had the worst ongoing experience I have ever had. I experienced continual psychic and spiritual intrusions by them, to the point that I realised they were directly being used by the devil masquerading as an ‘angel of light’ and giving them that kind of appearance. Imagine a snide intrusive stealing individual with a degree of influence in the Christian church, using a ’semblance of light’ that is not light, but very subtle, almost light, that can intrude and take over parts of your mind and drain your soul energy. This is what these so-called ‘deliverance ministers’ are doing. Nothing to do with Christ, just apostate, preying on those who are vulnerable and need help, taking them over with the help of the masquerading devil appearing as light. What they do is tell you that you need to ‘renounce your right to judge’, that is instantly suspect, arent we supposed to judge angels etc?!, then they get you to renounce your 3rd eye…, that means, you cant see any more and the soul is rendered ‘blind’, and who will take it over?….they will of course, via the devil. The 'third eye' is simply a term taken from non-Christian terminology to describe the seat of the spirit/soul/reason/will, in your forehead, where God places His seal. THE ONLY REASON I HAVE USED THAT TERM HERE IS BECAUSE THAT IS THE TERM DARNELL USED TO DESCRIBE THAT AREA OF THE FOREHEAD....I have felt intrusions and pressure in that area of my psyche for about a year now, esp. at certain times in the day, from them…I truly believe they are of the devil and believe its a mistake to even pray for them, for they know what they are doing. They told me that they would not pray for me as I was according to them ‘demon possessed’ and was beyond prayer, because I would not renounce my ‘3rd eye’….its actually unbelievable….they are so corrupt, but in the guise of ‘deliverance ministers’…..BEWARE !, and pray against them, not for them, if you want rightousness and true deliverance to prevail, pray for thier victims….in Jesus Name, amen
ReplyDeleteMay it be very clear, that I find this whole matter so distasteful, and a form of spiritual-emotional blackmail and co-ercive spiritual/occult possesion, that I am more than convinced it it not of God, and instead of renouncing my spirit/will centre described by 'darnells' as the 3rd eye,...
...INSTEAD, … I renounce the Darnells, those behind them, thier ‘god’, thier ‘christ’ and even the apostate communion I had with them which was ‘defilement, AS FALSE and all those that are with them and supporting them knowingly in this agenda controlling and decieving and co-ercing others to thier point of view and will…FOREVER
I am new here, but still hard-pressed to find real and actual support that is enlightened and aware in this area and truly of God
...in addition, I do this renunciation in Jesus name, which is Yahshua HaMoschiach, before heaven and earth... AMEN:)
ReplyDelete...and its sooooooo liberating...Praise YaHWeH Yahshua.....for that...
Just a bit of background info and further explanation: the 3rd eye its a term that Darnells used to describe the forehead area. How it started was that I mentioned to darnell that I felt Christians would be better equiped for spiritual warfare to be more in control of thier thoughts, emotions and sexuality…
ReplyDeletedarnell became very antagonistic to me and to what I said, and angrily responded by telling me that I needed to renounce my ‘3rd eye’ referring to my forehead area…I was taken aback, however, I just referred to it for the sake of accuracy in describing this event, for this is the term that was used…
It describes the area between the 2 eyes, where the unification of the inner man takes place in conjunction with the heart, which only truly happens in Christ Yahshua, however, this is the seat of your spirit which needs to be one with Gods Spirit, and its where He puts His seal, in your spirit, in your will as one with His Will, and in your sight, that you see through His Spirit….
The enemy wants to take over this area in humanity, via the occult and witchcraft, and ’surprise surprise’, false apostate christianity, even those recruited with hidden satanic agendas in deliverance ministries…playing on the ignorance AND OPEN VULNERABILITY of many Christians or would be Christians in these areas…
Think about it…, if a person was to renounce that part of their person, (whatever you choose to label it as), they would effectively be giving the devil ‘license’ to take over their will and spirit, for they have ‘renounced’ that part of thier person…
…incidentely, when I responded to darnells demands that I instead renounced ‘all that was not of God’ before others, he responded angrily that that was not enough….I had to also renounce my 3rd eye...
DARNELL WAS OBSESSED WITH ME DOING THIS AND CONTINUALLY HARASSED ME TO DO THIS, even causing pressure by demanding I do it in front of others in the deliverance workshop...everything I mentioned always he brought back to renouncing my 3rd eye....its was so oppressive, and insane...
What does that tell you??…however, for me its not an issue, …
See it another way, a blind man has a chance to one day be healed and see, however he is convinced to ‘renounce his eyes’…, , which they convinced him were ‘evil’ and called them his ‘1st & 2nd evil eyes’ and not of ‘god’….so, he unwittingly renounces his eyes not knowing any batter, since he is not the owner of his eyes anymore now, his enemy who wants his all his possessions, including his soul comes and digs his eyes out so that he can never see and make claim to his possessions…, nor to himself…
When they are brought before the Judge, the enemy explains that he had every right to dig this mans eyes out because he ‘renounced them’…, and take control of his soul. Once that happened, the ‘redeemer and healer of eyes’ could not come and heal this mans eyes and redeem him and his possessions as he had already renounced them … to the enemy…
I am NOT saying the area in the forehead IS the seal of the Holy Spirit, but that its the PLACE where the Holy Spirit dwells in your spirit and is sealed in God…’that area’ just ‘happens’ to be referred to as the ‘3rd eye’ by some which included darnell, at that time, and because its the seat of the spirit/will/inner sight of man, some try to develop it secularly, however, that does not negate from the fact that it exists and is an important part of the spiritual makeup of man as God created him, its just a label used by some….
The'eye and light'
ReplyDelete.... but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth consume, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
21 for where thy treasure is, there will thy heart be also.
22 The lamp of the body is the eye: if therefore THINE EYE BE SINGLE, thy whole body shall be full of light. Matthew 6:20-22 (ASV)
AND... 'control of thoughts'
....casting down imaginations, and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and BRINGING EVERY THOUGHT INTO CAPTIVITY to the obedience of Christ;
2 Corinthians 10:5
ReplyDelete... probably the reason john darnell referred the the forehead area automatically as the '3rd eye' ... is most likely because he was a practising kinesiologist involved in the new age movement...
ReplyDelete...he and his wife claim to have had a 'conversion experience' via an experience of laughing and writhing on the floor of a church somewhere....
…There is a sin unto death: not concerning this do I say that he should make request.1 John 5:16
ReplyDelete16 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me; for I will not hear thee. Jeremiah 7:16
9 And Jehovah said unto me, A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.Jeremiah 11:9
14 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them; for I will not hear them in the time that they cry unto me because of their trouble. Jeremiah 11:13
I must ask that no-one prays for any kind of reconciliation between darnells and myself please. I know who they are and who they serve. I know their spirit. Please do not…try to bring a ‘reconciliation through prayer’ because it is not appropriate (PLEASE: read the above verses)
I can feel the soul prayers of some that have prayed for reconciliation with him, and all it does is bring more battle and unrest for me, as it give him and the spirits behind him a way of reconnecting and drawing off my and others soul energy…, when it is TOTALLY AGAINST MY FREE WILL TO HAVE ANY PART WITH HIM…Please DONT DO THIS….I feel some have….and its against and violates my free will…
I am trying to warn others…if one person is saved from this it is worth voicing it, and save them the torture of this….I am not doing it to be reconciled to a false christ and ’shepherd’…
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. Mathew 24:24
Thanks….take care…

ReplyDeleteMy first information about occultists and Satanists infiltrating the church came from “He Came To Set The Captives Free” by Dr. Rebecca Brown and ex-witch “Elaine”. It was helpful in that it made me aware that the church DID get infiltrated. Unfortunately, it was inaccurate in a major point. Dr Brown said that the acid test was to ask, “Is Jesus Christ your Lord and Master?” We are told that a satanist cannot answer. Not true. I witnessed a committed Satanist prove it to me by flawlessly telling me, “Jesus Christ is my Lord and Master.” They are trained to do that.
I needed confirmation of all I was learning. I received it through a dear pastoral couple in my association who had a wonderful church in the worst part of DC. Their ministry was wonderfully successful, aided a great deal by a couple that they befriended, grew close to and eventually became right arms to their ministry. Then, everything went wrong and their ministry was under horrible attack on every level.
The pastors cried out to God for answers, and they were stunned when He showed them that their best friends were behind it! Shocked, reluctant, they confronted their friends. They laughed. “We're Satanists”, they said. “You were our assignment.”
HOW THE ENEMY USES THE IGNORANCE OF CHRISTIANS AND WANTS THEM TO BE BLIND AND NOT SEE, AND BE DESTROYED...
Quite frankly, the corruption I experienced myself, from the ’so-called shepherds heart’ ‘deliverance’ ministry, and other observations made in certain penticostal circles, really makes me feel a very deep sense of rightous anger that is impossible to describe.
ReplyDeleteI can understand fully why God will throw those such as these into the lake of fire…I am very sensitive-spiritually, and some things that have occurred to me by him in particular are unspeakable.
Give some of these ‘false shepherds’or any unrightous pretention of a christian an element of power on some spiritual level and they will do as bad and worse than the pagans, even satanists….Its real vomit material,
…these days, it means very little when someone says they are a ‘christian’, its just like, ‘o yeah, right’….moving on…, prove it !…and well see on the spiritual levels what you are…, I have seen the unrightous sides of some,even pastors etc the ‘alter-ego’ and its frightening, to think these are ‘leading the flock’ and others just follow like sheep to the slaughter…
I truly wish God would raise up an elite warrior army disciplined spiritually and developed spiritually in Him to function on the spiritual levels against those that abuse others….I have thought of this many times before all this…, but never thought it would also have to be against ’so-called christians’.
I believe the enemy has many recruits like what I experienced in the churches, for there is an agenda, to spiritually just take over the mind/will/desires of others, the ‘invisible head of the beast’ for the ‘global collective whore consciousness’ as ‘one’. I see it as…., those that are just too weak to resist, get thier will and soul taken over, via their desires and weakness etc, as Gods Spirit wont be in them to protect them.
Why do you think it is such an issue to ‘blind someone’ and take over thier will?…In using an unfamiliar 'in the norm' term like ‘the 3rd eye’ for that place where spiritual sight comes from, for whatever reason, use any description, ignorant Christians go ‘ooh ahhh, thats the occult, and support the evil pretention, appearing as a ‘christ’ who is saying all the right ‘words’ but is corrupt to the core in a perverse narcissism that is unbelievable to digest its spiritual stench and offront…that someone can actually exist that has zero conscience and do the things they have done to others.
…its unbelievable to see, whoever does not have the Seal of God on thier forehead, ie: in thier spirit and soul, will just be taken over by the occult-psuedo-christian false spirit and merge with the world ‘beast-consciousness’….the whore of unChristed humanity, collectively, whom the beast/antichrist is head of, rather than be pure in the Collective Church of Christ….
…they do not want you to see, know, nor understand…, but be taken over to use and get more power from ‘collective soul energy’ , because the enemy cannot draw power from God, the limitless source, so the only source is to draw from the soul of humanity, for a short while…, therefore another major reason for the ‘battle of souls’ in addition to hating God and wanting to destroy His creation.
I believe the ‘world church’ will be the last main front the enemy will be using to fool the world into following him, and those apostates placed in positions of influence in churches, that know the letters of the Word and how to manipulate them, are being used to pervert the direction of world churches by influencing individuals and church collectives…
The enemy will not come announcing he has ‘horns and a tail’ with a pitchfork….
….he will come with the appearance of ‘a friend’, ‘a christ’, … someone that you are made to feel you can ‘trust’….until…its too late….
Take care…ALL
…true prophetic speakers, which are rare, speak not only according to the Word, in ‘real terms’, but also what they say comes true, and is not detrimental to the person in essence…
ReplyDelete…I have seen a lot of ‘mediums’ through whom spirits speak with some elements of limited supernatural insight due to this…, which fools others, and many I have seen have one thing in common among others, they tend to speak about God in an irreverant manner as though He was one of thier ‘drinking buddies’…
I look for extreme respect for God, when I expect someone to convey God..this is biblical…who wants to follow or even listen to some blaspheming or ‘borderline blaspheming’ corruption in disguise….??…not me
…the bible speaks of many coming in His Name and casting out demons etc, but He will not know them, … it also speaks of a deception so great that it would decieve even the elect if possible Mathew 24:24….this is going on today, however, the bible also says: Here is the patience of the saints, here are those that keep the commandments of God AND have the faith of Jesus’ Rev 14:12…by thier fruits you will know them…’obedience’ in real terms.
…many are preaching the doctrine of Balaam which is lawlessness…not only seen in their life as lawless fruit,ie: disobedience to God, but on spiritual levels by some….Rev 2:14
…me, Im just a humble goat herder as far as any status in this world goes, metaphorically speaking…that sometimes is given insight…., on occasion profound…however, I aspire to be a good ‘watchman’ and not a ‘dumb dog’ who does not warn others…Isaiah 56:10
Are you aware of any TRUE PROPHETIC SPEAKERS? I have talke with various people about what I think is demonic torment that I have been experiencing for over two years now. Many claimed to be prophets...one claimed to be a modern day apostle and another one claimed to not only be a prophet, but a "seer." They told me some odd things. Do you know anyone who you believe to be a TRUE PROPHET? I so desperately need help.
DeleteRegarding 'shepherds heart' in Canberra and Moss Vale, Australia, in addition, …an example is when Darnells were exacting thier teachings in one of thier intensives I was present in…
ReplyDelete..they encouraged the ‘abuse of God’ for all the bad things He allowed to happen to them, to let out all anger and resentment , to ‘get it out of your system’ and be ‘able to then more peacefully’ be a ‘christian’….
..I objected to this and mentioned the account of Job, how it was a test for him not to do this…He responded by saying that it was just a ‘psychological stress release’ excercise and was not ‘wrong’…unbelievable…
…when I spoke out against Harry Potter, whom his wife informed us she read, just to ‘be informed’ about it, I was stopped from speaking further in front of the group…and eventually from speaking to the group period… I left halfway through thier ‘intensive’ at Moss Vale…
..would you feel comfortable with that?…in addition to all the other bad things going on….Im not, I intend to honour God to the best of my ability, and not show Him dishonour for ’stress release’…this again is in the spirit of balaam, for the only way he could get Israel cursed is to cause them to be disobedient and for Gods protection to accordingly leave them, so that a curse would find them…
Take care
In Yahshuas Light
I have been involved in a lot of spiritual warfare fighting off darnells constant controlling intrusions…, its amazing how they just contrast and stand out from my normal modes of feeling and thinking…, I cant see much difference, any difference between them and a witch, they are using the same methods to control for personal agenda, one is in the Name of Christ, will who knows what they use behing closed doors…
ReplyDelete…what I was getting at was, its been hard to think straight, as I feel (even physically, they turn into headaches and forgetfulness) thier attacks projected at my forehead and it affects my thinking, even memory, however, they have not succeeded in blinding me….and with constant prayer, I remembered something else, …
…darnells wife glenys, told me that john darnell had encournters with ‘celestial beings’…I thought that term was somewhat ‘ambiguous’…so I asked, what kind of celestial beings, where they angels of God?…she said no, then (now I am starting to recall) I asked, well, what were they,fallen angels, demons?…she said, yes, but they are still celestial beings…I wondered why she initially said it in a way that was some kind of admiration and as though it added to darnells ‘credentials’…
..john darnell also told me initially when I first called on the phone, that quite a few churches regarded them as ‘heretics’….
..its amazing, its almost like that memory was blocked in my mind…
…anyway, they have not suceeded and will not suceed…by the Power of YHWH…the True God in Yahshua …nor any like them…:)
God bless all His children, that truly serve Him and await His coming
Hi Eric,
ReplyDeleteThanks for replying to my question regarding Rebecca Brown a few months ago, just now finally! getting caught up on all my back emails.
I agree with you completely regarding the battle is Gods. Read a good book called.. Its Gods War by Judson Cromwell. Think I will have to add your books next to my list.
Have a question regarding her story, do you believe it was true bc there is a lot of contradictory evidence against her.
Thanks,
Do you know about the Cleansing Stream Ministries and what are the difference between your ministry and theirs?
ReplyDeleteI had 7 years experience with them and recently felt some red flags about some of their teachings.
please help, i think someone has put something bad on me and my friends, have you ever heard of when someone stomach moves uncontrollably.
ReplyDeleteThis has happen to 2 of my friends THESE TWO PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW EACH OTHER.
after they told me, it made me think about what happen to me, then out of the blue about 3 years later this other person told me of this thing happening to them aswell since then one of these girls has killed someone the other was when anoited with oil at church and black stuff came out of her mouth, my stomach did move again, but after i left my bible lying next to my bed, i`m not sure if it was it coming out or what, i have said the miracle prayer and do go to church but have not yet been Baptised, as my friend seems to have got worse since her anoitment with oil, please help, this is real, i did speak to someone in the church but they didn`t seems to believe what i was saying,
Dear men of God
ReplyDeleteI chanced on your website while seeking out for information about Satan's pre-Adamic authority and what it is that he gained over us and what exactly it is that we lost. I really wanted to understand what it is that Christ gained back on our behalf. But I could not believe, when I arrives here, that this kind of website exists that believes about Spiritual Warfare the way I do. Now with so much ado about it here in my country and slowly thriving. It is great that God can reveal independently such great truths. I will try get as much as I can to help our part of the world with freedom giving truths.
Thanks btu what a challenge it is to try go against the tide even when your leaders believe differently.
Greetings,
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for your website and making known the truth regarding spiritual warfare. In sharing these truths a question has arisen that needs clarification. In Matt. 16:23, Jesus says to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan......."
If we are to directly address spiritual entities only when they are allowed to manifest themselves in the earthly realm - Are we to assume, by Jesus' statement, that Peter was temporarily indwelt by Satan?
Your insight will be much appreciated.
Thanks

How and why is my son addicted to drugs when I have been praying for him since he was a child? One day he was born again and living in truth.. the next he was totally addicted to drugs and listening to the spirit of death and hopelessness. How can this be when I've pleaded the blood over him for years.. prayed for him, prayed against this? Why is the liar still with him when I have binded him and.. as a spiritual authority of my son? Why is he not free?
ReplyDeleteDear anonymous: my response is to look at what the Bible sais in Matthew ch. 13...Your child is not unlike myself when i was younger....I grew up knowing the truth, but my heart wasnt ready to receive it yet...Through time and maturing as I began to truly seek Him and walk in His ways I finally could understand that He has a plan for me. Continue to pray for His will first, then ask for what you will. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding...In all your ways acknowledge Him and he will direct your path...I copied the chapter for you to read...God Bless You.
ReplyDeleteMatthew 13 New Living Translation
Parable of the Farmer Scattering Seed
1 Later that same day Jesus left the house and sat beside the lake. 2 A large crowd soon gathered around him, so he got into a boat. Then he sat there and taught as the people stood on the shore. 3 He told many stories in the form of parables, such as this one:
“Listen! A farmer went out to plant some seeds. 4 As he scattered them across his field, some seeds fell on a footpath, and the birds came and ate them. 5 Other seeds fell on shallow soil with underlying rock. The seeds sprouted quickly because the soil was shallow. 6 But the plants soon wilted under the hot sun, and since they didn’t have deep roots, they died. 7 Other seeds fell among thorns that grew up and choked out the tender plants. 8 Still other seeds fell on fertile soil, and they produced a crop that was thirty, sixty, and even a hundred times as much as had been planted! 9 Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand.”
10 His disciples came and asked him, “Why do you use parables when you talk to the people?”
11 He replied, “You are permitted to understand the secrets[a] of the Kingdom of Heaven, but others are not. 12 To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given, and they will have an abundance of knowledge. But for those who are not listening, even what little understanding they have will be taken away from them. 13 That is why I use these parables,
For they look, but they don’t really see.
They hear, but they don’t really listen or understand.
14 This fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah that says,
‘When you hear what I say,
you will not understand.
When you see what I do,
you will not comprehend.
15 For the hearts of these people are hardened,
and their ears cannot hear,
and they have closed their eyes—
so their eyes cannot see,
and their ears cannot hear,
and their hearts cannot understand,
and they cannot turn to me
and let me heal them.’[b]
16 “But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear. 17 I tell you the truth, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see, but they didn’t see it. And they longed to hear what you hear, but they didn’t hear it.
18 “Now listen to the explanation of the parable about the farmer planting seeds: 19 The seed that fell on the footpath represents those who hear the message about the Kingdom and don’t understand it. Then the evil one comes and snatches away the seed that was planted in their hearts. 20 The seed on the rocky soil represents those who hear the message and immediately receive it with joy. 21 But since they don’t have deep roots, they don’t last long. They fall away as soon as they have problems or are persecuted for believing God’s word. 22 The seed that fell among the thorns represents those who hear God’s word, but all too quickly the message is crowded out by the worries of this life and the lure of wealth, so no fruit is produced. 23 The seed that fell on good soil represents those who truly hear and understand God’s word and produce a harvest of thirty, sixty, or even a hundred times as much as had been planted!”
Remember friend, without faith it is impossible to please God. Seek Him first.

ReplyDeleteThe Great Storm
A massive storm is soon coming to Southern California. The storm is going to be very big with high winds, pouring rain, massive lightning bolts, and thunder so loud it will knock you out of your chair. But this isn't just any storm, this storm represents something very deep. It represents the destruction and defeat of the "Evil God's" that have devoured and destroyed innocent life. These evil God's have inflicted intense and tremendous evil and pain among innocent life. They have inflicted as much harm imaginable. There are several of these evil God's. The name of this massive storm is "The Great Storm."
The plan is that when The Great Storm comes, to light a Jesus candle in a dark room, and keep it lit during the storm. The defeat of these evil God's is dedicated to the Goddesses and Jesus, as they are one. The way to dedicate their defeat to Jesus and the Goddesses is to tie a "purple ribbon" around the Jesus candle, as the color purple represents the Goddesses.
The Great Storm of intense energy will only last for about one hour, so make sure that you are prepared before the storm comes. Listen to your weekly weather forcasts of any possible major storms in the Los Angeles, CA and surrounding areas as far north as Mojave.
Greetings,
ReplyDeleteI came upon your site while googling to find about spiritual attacks during a fast. I am on a fast right now, seeking the Lord to reveal any areas of my life that are not in line with His will. Last night, day three, I began to have fears, anxiety, couldn't sit long enough to concentrate on Scripture, began to feel discouraged. Do you have any material that might help with this? I don't have anyone that I could comfortably share this with - if you know of any prayer warriers that wouldn't mind...I would covet any prayers.
Thank you!

hi,my name is lan tu,.i came across your website,googling searching for help for my brother and his girlfriend.
ReplyDeletemy brother has been living with his girlfriend for about 3 years,at first we knew something was wrong with her but we thought she had a sleeping disorder or she needed mental help,or maybe a lost soul has tooken over her body. my brother has also gone as far as taken her to the mental hospital, but they just said she wasnt a danger to herself and to others and sent her home.
As time passed by.We diagnosed her ourself(because she rufused to go back to the doctors) as multiple personality.
Everynight she would wake up and act as though she was a differnt person.saying weired negative things about life. depressed,sad,confused,(nothing like herself,and for no reson at all) and when she awoke, she never remembered anything happeing to her.
because of this my lil brother turned to the bible,he started to read it to her everynight, hopeing her sickness would go away and she could sleep peacefully,
but im sadden to say, the more we read the bible we realized it isnt a sleeping disorder nor multiple personality not even a ghost,it is a demon or demons.
The more my brother reads the bible the more it manifest itself,..now it tells my brother to leave her alone,.
my stong brother, god be with him,has not givin up,he is a true believer now reading the bible and praying everyminiute of the day,.
now that the demon knows my brother is on to it,..it manifest about 80 percent of the day.
its not like the movies where it uses differnt voices.or spins its head ..this demon is tricky,..it pretends it is her..but now my brother knows how to tell the differance,.her pupils dialate and when its about to happen she closes her eyes and he can see her pupils moving.it wants my brother to leave her alone,.
he has pleaded for the lord to cover them with his blood,he has tried to cast the demon out in jesus name with full authority,Every night he fights with this demon he only sleeps 2-3 hour a night becaue he is casting it out and reading the bible to it everynight.It knows my brother is on to it for about a month now.He dosent have any fear because he knows we are the children of god and it cant touch us!
my dad a christian has been studying the bible for 7 years,he belongs to livingstreamministry..in houston texas,my brother lives in naples florida ,my dad flew over there last weekend because my brother finaly talked his girlfirend to accept jesus christ as her savior!!he did alot of crying and pleading and begging to let our god save her.she said yes,imidately my dad flew over there and baptized her(by the way ,she was buddist)her grandfather was also a physic.but i think she dosent truly believe in our lord,thats why its still manifesting itself,even worse now..
pleaseeeee help my family.there is too much to explain and write about please my email adress is lantu832@yahoo.com
In regard to her attacks there are two mutually excursive explanations (i.e. cannot occur at the same time) - from the Bible's point of view:
ReplyDelete1. If she's not born again her strange behavior is likely a an aspect of demonic possession. In this case she'll need deliverance from demons through any one of the following: a) verbally expressive expulsion of demons (commonly called casting out demons), b) through prayer (to God) for deliverance from evil spirits, 3) hearing of God's word on deliverance and healing (e.g. Luke 13:11-13).
2. If she's born again her the behavior is likely an aspect of demonic influence (not possession). In other words demons are operating from an external setting and have a level of access to her that they're able to bring such oppression. In this case she'll need deliverance from demons through a) her committed walk with God, b) continual (i.e never giving up) prayers of seeking God's deliverance from the demonic oppression.
In both cases occasional prayer and fasting would be worthwhile:
“His disciples asked him privately, "Why could we not cast it (the demon) out" And he said to them, “This kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer and fasting,” Mark 9:28-29, Matthew 17: 21, (in KJV, ISV bibles).
Please read the following chapter on prayer and fasting:
http://www.spiritualwarfaredeliverance.com/html/prayer-and-fasting-deliverance.html
Please read through other helpful content at our website (www.spiritualwarfaredeliverance.com) and other bible based ministry websites. Avoid sensationalist teachings that have catchy sound-bites but are not grounded in contextual biblical interpretation. Matters on demonic manifestations need true biblical interpretation and application to overcome them.
Best wishes and prayers.

Several years ago, I felt alone and destitute. I was a single mother going through a nasty divorce, and I had no money. I contacted a psychic nework for answers. An evil psychic claiming to be a preistess using the most powerful religion in the world,(I am assuming she was practicing voodoo), told me many negative things. She has tormented me through my dreams and spiritual other ways. I want myself and my family to be forever free of the evil woman and her works. She prays on the poor and destitute. Please pray for my protection and for the protection of those I love, and everyone she has caused spiritualand physical harm to. Thankyou, LWB
ReplyDeleteMost certainly, LWB. Please read the free online book titled: Breaking Occult Spells: Protection from Witchcraft and Occult Influences.
ReplyDeleteThe main page of the book is on the following link:
http://www.spiritualwarfaredeliverance.com/occult-occultism-deliverance-healing/html/breaking-occult-spells-book.html
We have recently come to a church that seems to be very deadened and asleep. We have for a time sensed an evil there. I have prayed for discernment and truth - talked to a dear friend who is involved in spiritual warfare. This person says that she has had a word that many spirits are there and that they will not be driven from this church and that the only thing we can do is leave. We believe God placed us there for a Reason and has not yet called us to leave. Can you offer some wisdom please for our situation?
ReplyDeleteI am looking for a copy of John Eckhardt's (DELIVERANCE AND SPRITUAL WARFARE) New or used doesn't matter. Please contact me at mike@totalmedaiservice.com
ReplyDeleteEric, I notice our name and ministry being slandered on the posts. Does anyone moderate what is posted? There are posts by Chistthelion and the same man posts more of his hateful slander anonymously.
ReplyDeleteThere are two sides to every story and most of what he says is nothing more than anger because someone disagreed with him and would not let him dominate a group we were teaching with his beliefs about us needing the 3rd eye to effectively warfare for Christ.
We serve the King of Kings and our sole motive is to see precious souls such as post on your site, set free. Being human means we make mistakes and occasionally cause offence, but in this case we stand by our response to a man who was pushing his own beliefs forcefully on others. Jesus is the healer and He uses many diverse ministries to bring healing to oppressed and wounded souls. We are simply one of those ministries, doing our best.
I think to allow vicious slander to be posted unchecked is irresponsible and means that seekers of help are influenced against those who may be able to help them.
In love, in Jesus,
John Darnell - Shepherd's Heart
Hello. Thank you for the great abundance of information on spiritual warfare. For quite some time my mother has sent me information on these spritual matters, perhaps hoping that it will help me come to terms and better understand a bizzare incident that happened to me when I was about 12 I think. I am 26 now and telling this for the first time in hopes that those on this forum might be able to help me by both prayer and understanding of the experience. I have been hesitant in speaking about this personal experience with others because I would not know what the reaction would be when I said it happened while at an event held by a well known christian organization. I was on court visitation with my father at the time. He was very busy with work and sent me away to a week long camp with other children my age. The camp counselors seemed very nice and told us children that we would have a mission to complete by the end of the camp to show our faith and we would know when the time came. Late one night all the gilrs in my cabin were awakenned by the camp counselors and told to line up single file outside the camp. I recall it being close to mignight, but please remember it has been a really long time since this happened and most of my memories on this incidence are now gone but I will tell what I can. All of us girls had no idea what was going on and were suddenly blinded folded and lead into the woods. I remember two things about walking through the woods blindfolded. The first thing was one of the camp counselors saying not to fear the darkness and that the lord was with us. The other thing I recall was one of the girls feeling very scared and crying. We arrived a this spot in the woods where our blindfolds were taken off. We cirlced around both an inner and outer circle lit up by candles on the ground. On what appeared to be a wall of rocks or something lied a crucifix. Someone with a long robe on came into an inner circle on the ground and was holding a book. I was assuming at the time it was a bible of course because it was supposed to be a christain camp and theme. Anyways, he read from it and had us repeat something and then said a prayer, all of which I cannot remember even a single detail of. When it was all over we went back to our cabin and received some kind of ragger or scarf that had some symbols on it I did not recognize. Anyways, I always thought there was something not right about what happened. It struck some cord of fear and that fear seemed contrary to what I felt and believed about God. Anways, to cut this story short, does anyone have any insight into this matter that perhaps they can share. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your website. I would be grateful for your prayers. My dad left the christian ministry to become a well known satanist. He had been involved in the occult and satanism before becoming a christian and he did a bible college, worked for christian societies but ended up a strong satanist since I was a little girl. He hurt be so much and so many others, his deeds are so evil that sometimes I wish he would be dead. I feel guilty for my hate towards him. Every time I try to give him another small chance he hurt me badly. He uses the bible that he knows so well to make me feel guilty for my depression and for the fact that I am not forgiving him. He is just so manipulative and evil. To know he is my dad is a torment as I am so ashamed of his evil deeds. He is so clever and I know he could be so different. I am sinking into deep depression as the devil does not seem to leave me breath. I married a committed christian, loved my the church. I found out that he was an exhibitionist, he also betrayed me and mistreated me. He also started well, I know my ex husband loved God so much when I met him but then left God's hand, even if he calls himself a christian. He even cheated on me with a pastor lady. I lost my husband, church, house, cat, friends. I feel guitly for not overcoming my bitterness and depression as I know that God said it is finished when he conquered evil, death, sickness and pain and sin on the cross. Why can't I trust God. I am so hurt that going to church is difficult. My uncle, a preacher abused me when I was 14. i dont understand why God allows so much pain. My mum a strong believer suffers from mental illness, my sister is anorexic and the list goes on. Please pray that I would not give up as sometimes I feel I cannot anymore, the pain is so intense. Please pray that I can fully forgive. I asked so many times for people to pray for me but it did not help, the bitterness is there even if every day I begged God to help me, I listen to christian music, christian TV, read the bible but the strongholds dont disappear. Sorry for my long request. thank you for reading and for your prayers. May God bless you all.
ReplyDeleteI have been battling with getting free from demons for some years now. Working through spiritual bondage and emotional bondage has been amazing, but at this point I want to be free! There are still demons in me and I want them all out! What do I do?!?!?

ReplyDeleteFor Lonnie lee White to stop having lustful desires in his mind, heart, and soul for females half his age, for him to stop and completely cease from now from calling or meeting with the female he has been doing sex with, that he stops pretending to not get erections for his wife, and instead of doing sex with others he only perform sex with his wife fully and find pleasure in doing sex the right way with her..and he have positive attitudes of his wife. New beginning that show conversion into Christianity, not no more Masonic believes but real Christianity arises in his life from now on.
ReplyDeleteFirstly, thank you for this website, Mr. Gondwe. I was a former member of a word-faith church (Kenneth Hagin, etc.), and a reader of Bob Larson. I have some questions: can a demon posess a non-Christian while the person is drunk? can a demon affect the behavior of a Christian if the Christian is drunk? In such a state, can a demon control a person's body?
ReplyDeleteAlso, can demons move physical objects? can they "teleport" objects from one location to another? any feedback would be helpful.
Jesus is Lord,

ReplyDeleteHi Eric,
ReplyDeleteI have really been touched by your ministry and your words of wisdom have helped me see clearly the deception that exists in many churches today with direct confrontation of spirits. Thank you.
I have a question. I live on a very small island - population only 8,000 people. The only churches that we have here are ones that practice direct confrontation. We do not have much choice.
I have gone along to our church but in the main sermons they will almost always start binding and loosing & direct confrontation. Then there is homegrp once a week, where the lady running it gets super fired up when praying and starts direct confrontation. Her discussion is powered by the hours she tell us she spend every morning binding all the spirits & going into "spiritual warfare".
Last night there was a congregational prayer healing meeting for 2 members seriously injured recently. Every time someone started binding and direct confrontation the volume of the prayers got louder and louder & when they glorify God it was in a small soft voice (glorifying God was only a small fraction of the prayer time).
It makes me angry (in a good sense) about how much time & energy they spend glorifying the devil rather than praising and glorifying our King Lord Jesus Christ.
Because I am not in support of the binding & direct confrontation, when they pray such things I just start praising and glorifying God myself, so I do not agree with that part of their prayers.
I felt really sick 2 my stomach after attending the prayer meeting last night, not at all uplifted.
Given the situation. Small island, no other churches, my little girl is homeschooled (has no other friends except those in the church). Is attending this church doing us any spiritual harm? What is the wisdom in the situation about being a part of a church like this?
Thank you kindly.
URGENT PRAYER: Please pray for Karla suffering from pain from MS symptoms. Cecil recently ill and cared for by Karla, but due to anger, Cecil refuses to help her. Was pleasant and helpful in recent past. Karla needs his help NOW. This is a stubborn demonic spirit that surfaces and resurfaces over and over again. There is a generational curse and chemical imbalance that also involves anxiety and fear. Requires laying on of hands at church to cast thisugly thing out but naturally Cecil has not submitted to going. There is a a deliverance service this week at Karla's church. This is yet another request. Pls also pray for Karla's finances as her job has been slow to pay her for two weeks pay now stemming from summer and she needs money badly now. Only has tithes in the bank which will be released. She has no savings left.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your website!
ReplyDeleteThis is an amazing resource for all christians. I allmost just found this, or, I believe the Holy Spirit showed it to me and I am still reading.
Jesus saved me 13 years ago and told me he was going to use me as his spearhead (do not know the word for it in your language?). He also told me I was going to set the captives free.
He gave me the gift of dancing (if there is any such thing), but it came with the package, so to speak, when he bapticed me in his holy spirit.
I just started to dance outside the church, taking the gospel, the word of God and his love, to people who are mentally ill.
The Lord had to work with me first for a long time though, I was entering the occult, when Jesus saved me. Halleluja, he is so amazing, my Jesus.
I attended a prophetic conference just resently (my pastor sent me) and The Lord called me into an intercession-ministry to pray for my city, my country, the lost! I am very exited about this.
I began praying in groups some time ago and I realise there is so much I need to learn about prayer, intercession, spiritual warfare, the word of God, knowing Gods heart, ect.
The Lord trained me and taught me alot over the years, about the spiritual realm and how to set people free praying for them face to face (haven't had much real practice though),today I realise, most of my knowledge is right somehow, but I need more and I need to be very much aware of wrong teachings as well.
Had I not seen this webside, I would have prayed and acted in the belief that I had the authority myself to command the powers and authorities in the skies over Denmark to move away!!!
God is so wonderful, he does not want me to make that mistake, so he leads me to your website!!
I just ordered to books from Lulu, "Major Christian Deliverance Principles: Keys for Self-deliverance" and "Major Spiritual Warfare Principles: Biblical Do’s and Don’ts".
I hope it covers most of it.
Thanks again for your amazing website, I will tell my friends about it ;))
May God bless you so much for this!
In Christ

What are good bible verses that provide support? Whenever I get close to someone they pass away (die) or they leave my life for other reasons. It appears that dark forces have been attacking me all my life. Whatever this force is, it trys to take everything from me (jobs, family members, husband, friends)? The force follows me wherever I go, from place to place. It changes bodies but the message is always the same. The force wants to go out of its way to hurt me and isolate me. When I come into a room people have a reaction and looked shocked. They act as if they are afraid of me. They have a hard time looking me in the eye. A friend says its because I light up a room when I enter and that there is a fight between forces of light and dark.
ReplyDeleteI used to have dreams that provided help, guidance, and warnings about my day to day life. I have followed the dreams and have been protected from harms way. Now I don't get answers in my dreams and I feel so lonely without this help. I suppose the dreams don't come because I doing what I'm suppose to be doing, however, I miss the dreams.
I need prayer to help me keep the faith and to know that Jesus has not abandoned me.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI have found this forum amazing. Many answered questons that I have been searching for years. I have a question. On demonic influence My loved one has the hearing voices which I have felt from day one was somehow demonic related.I believe he would be under the Storms of Life. My question is under the "title" bipolar.In your research have you found that the horrible mood swings or lack of control could fall under this catagory at all? Please respond for this is very urgent. Thank you so much!
God bless

I know this is a long shot, but extremely significant information in this thread posted by Christthelion is relevant to me in my own family situation. I need to know more about the "Shepherd's Heart" church/ministry.

I have been having trouble with my fifteen year old son for some time now. He is smoking marijuana and cigarettes. I am sure that this is spiritual. He and I have almost come to blows on several occassions. I need help. I have been praying to God for an answer and I believe He has shown me some things. My son is also very disobediant. He curses at me. He gets angry at the drop of a hat. Other times he can be fine. His mother and I divorced, she is bi-polar and she had committed adultery. I wanted to save the marriage she did not. My son and two of our other children stayed with her for a while after we separated. I don't know if that is important, but thought I would mention it. Don't know what else to do except pray and ask God. Any help would be much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteGod bless!
I read a lot of post here in your website and i found out a bunch of interesting topics. The reason why I sent a message is I want you to help me out in my problem right. I would appreciate also if some of you Christian will have to share and advice me on what to do to keep away from these things. I worked way too far from home and the only way of communication to my kids and wife is through internet so most of the time me and my wife will do cybersex just to fullfill our emotions.She was willing to do it too because she lloves me...I felt very uncomfortable right now in my life and it seems that my heart is drifting away in God's promise. Please advice me. You can send your advices to dxb_2005@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteI will first start by stating the facts. I had my first "blackout" when I was 14. My step-father had physically abused a sibling "in the name of christ". I grew very angry at God and lost control for what I think was less than a minute. I spent a lot of time dabling with the occult out of my immature rebellion. 5 years passed without anything abnormal happening. While with family I blacked out and lost complete control for several hours. They told me that I had been blasheming Christ, cursing, and that I was quoting parts of scripture that I don't even recall. Not being a christian I thought everyone was crazy. Now about 2 weeks ago (Im 22 now) I asked the Lord to come into my heart and repented of my sins. During my prayer I began to feel something was very wrong.
ReplyDeleteNow here is the part that confuses me, if it was a demon then I should not have been able to pray... or even say Jesus' name. I also have complete control of my actions... so at this point I'm confused. Any direction would be apprechiated

My close family member who is a Christian now was involved in satanism as a young adult. I have suggested deliverance for him. he thinks since he's been saved, that the demons were gone but exhibits anger, alcoholism,frustration, discontentment and he is very critical of his wife over minor things. I believe and told him that he needs deliverance from this because of the opened doors in the past. Can anybody give me advice on how to help him and help him save his marriage.
ReplyDeleteThe fight is horrible and bloody, many die, most curve into insanity before killing themselves, because of the sheer horror of the torment. The reason the demons follow people after they have been liberated is because of the dual nature of the operession/ possesion. The main weapon of the enemy is psycological warfare, because of the boundaries god has set; other wise we'd all be dead now. The sin itself seperates us from god and if continued will form a stronghold in the mind. It is this that allows the demons to keep tormenting the person. It is only when one truly repents and refuses to sin the sin any more and the door is sealed through prayer that the demons leave permanently. I speak from experience. Another common problem is often once one is free they develop a fear of demons because of experiencing their horror, then a fear spirit slips through the open door. If you tell them that they have another they will become hysterical. It is important toremember that this is all done through the lords power and mercy, and we are protected by gods sweet embrace throghout the battle. Jesus loves you!!!
ReplyDeleteDo you believe there is a specific demon which causes a man to physically, emotionally or verbally abuse his wife? In putting spiritual warfare to practice, I believe the Lord has showed me that my husband (he is a born-again Christian, but has battles huge strongholds for years) is being influenced by a spirit of abuse. Is there such a thing as a demonic spirit of abuse?
ReplyDeleteFor 18 years spirits have followed me, attacked me, or just dropped in and out of my life as they please. In the past 5 years they have been no more than an annoyance. But recently one woke me from my sleep and felt as though it was trying to force itself into me, i remember screaming over and over and trying to throw my arms and kick my legs but i felt paralyzed. It did this twice (and tormented me throughout the night) and stayed for 3 days I felt this terrible sense of fear and dread the whole time. My husband woke and saw it and could not sleep, a day later my son came in terrified because he heard a voice speak to him he knew it came from a doorway and was not his dads voice but did not see anything.
ReplyDeletePrior to this i had been spending my time off university reading the bible for hours every day and praying frequently each day too. I thought about fasting but decided to wait since im breastfeeding.
I guess i panicked a little because for the 3 days i felt empty inside and thought it meant the holy spirit had left me. After much reading i became reassured this was not possible and again feel at peace within myself now.
Question- I spend a lot of time reading to make sure im living a godly life and pray always for protection yet after all these years the spirits are still here. Am i suppose to stop looking for fault in myself or blaming myself for not having enough faith and ask God to give me patience and endurance?? Instead of expecting the spirits to leave me alone?
I know the holy spirit fought off the spirit that night. Im not sure how and i know im protected i just dont understand why Im tormented by them so much.
Every time they come i spend the time in prayer hoping to turn a bad situation into a positive.
I've heard a voice here or there before. I think it's the providence of God. It shows situations can speak louder than most let them, keep up your situation of reading and praying speak the name of Jesus. Rest assured God is strong, and let God bless you and your family.
DeleteHi Christian Warfare,
ReplyDeleteFor the last four years I've been going through this phase where if I write down all my plans on a piece of paper, none of them of them will ever materialize. I just can't get anything done at all if I put too much of my time on it or if I think about it too much. Things don't seem to make any sense to me.
In the beginning I didn't take any notice of these things but since I discovered the Bible-knowledge website, I've woken-up. I'm starting to see very strange things happening in my life. It's like someone has put a stop to everything I strive to achieve.
I'm in an absolute total mess (financially, physically, emotionally, socially etc.). Everything seem have stalled.
Could you please pray for me that I receive the best solution to most of these problems.
I believe I need a proper deliverance and I want to do it by myself but I await for the needed advice from you.
============= =============
It's a very long story but I will try my best to give you a few bits about myself.
I'm an African British. I'm the fifth of the eight children (4 boys, 4 girls) by my Catholic African parents.
I got born-again on 2nd July 2006. It's a very long story of how I got saved but it is the best thing to ever happen to me.
I miraculously discovered your website a few days back and it has been an eye-opener. It all started by receiving a monthly newsletter from Andrew Wommack in which he was talking about Believers' Authority. There a few things (spiritual warfare) he mentioned in that particular article that got me going and I've never looked back.
--
My older brother died last year after having a land dispute with his neighbours in Africa. The doctors failed to find the cause of his death after spending many weeks in the hospital. He was a very fine human being without any problem. He was both mentally and physically fine before the land dispute took place.
--
My other brother is permanently involved in African-magic (occult). He gave up his job to permanently engage in this. My relationship with him started to deteriorate when I learnt about his involvement in this sort of thing and we don't see eye to eye. And he knows that I don't agree with what he is doing.
--
One of my Cousin returned to Africa after spending much of his time UK to embark on African-magic (occult). When I found out I completely cut him off and he didn't like it either. We weren't on speaking terms when he died a few years back and I never attended his funeral.
--
My father died a few years ago from his heavy drinking. He drank from morning to sunset. For some reason we really never got on (He never showed me any love and he physically abused me). I last saw him when I was last in Africa 20 years a go. He just died a few years back before I got saved and I never attended his funeral.
--
All my sisters are happily married with children. The other brother, Nelson, is doing fine and just had a baby son, Kingsley. In the whole family, I'm the only one born-again, living abroad but, still unmarried, still childless (that can't be a coincidence, can it?) .
--
My mother is a devout Catholic (extremely religious) and she's serving in the church. I love her so much but I wish she could be born-again (I doubt).
--
I have now forgiven everybody and God is my witness on that..
.
Let me hear what you have to say about all that Mike.
I desperately need to get this sorted out once and for all.
It's been one hell of a struggle and I was innocently unaware of its existence.

i am a first time reader. i am much in agreement of the need for deliverance ministry. i have been a lay minister about 10 yrs in spiritual warfare and nothing in the world or in the Bible changes. it is still satan again God's people. we have to always remeber who we are in Jesus to have victory and wear the armor for protection. anyone who needs prayer or wants to get in agreement can email me anytime and i will pray with you. anyone out there who is listening....don't stay out there on your own without gettinginto fellowship and prayer with believers. the devil will try to pick you off. with love....lorianna1969@hotmail.com

DeleteHi,I am new to the site and really enjoy the material.Is it true that there are witches who are also real licensed nurses in every American Hospital in this country? The vials of blood are taken by these witches/nurses and used for some sort of dedication to Lucifer,etc... If anyone knows of this I'd love to hear and learn more.

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI need prayers in the area of my marriage. I have been married for six years to a man that has been beating me up for all those six years including the times that i was pregnant with our two sons.
I have been going for counselling alone, he refuses to see himself as the problem, he blames me he says I make him angry.
from what i told the counsellor, she said she thinks my husband has an antisocial disorder, he cannot feel empathy or remorse, which is also why he is so agressive in his physical abuse, he strangles me, the one other time he beat me up with a hammer.
He is also a christian, so am I which makes it difficult for me to file for a divorce because I do not believe in divorce.
What could be the cause of his anger? can it be cured or should I accept what the psychologist say as true, that he will never recover from it because people with that disorder are born with something missing on their brains that other human beings have, which is why they feel no sympathy, love or remorse
Noliti from south africa
It might be spiritual or simple immaturity or that he's a bully. Bully's usually back off when we are as strong or stronger than they are.....Deb Pearl in her classic book, "Created to Be His Helpmeet" says that an abusive man who breaks the laws of the land belongs in jail, the same as any other lawbreaker. Something to think about. God Bless you.
DeletePraise God! This website has been a wealth of information! I've been referring to it for 2 years now. My trials with evil started with a reconcilliation with my husband. Deception is huge! Because I really wanted my marriage, I deceived myself into believing my husband was honorable. He had a rotten spell placed on me, during a very weak point of my life. I was not choosing "life", partly from his evil influence with emf to depress me to where i didn't want to live. I am still fighting to get back in God's grace! This site encourages my faith and hope for deliverence.
ReplyDeletei'm dissabled and have been under attack for almost 2 years now, and my new neighbor now since this past christmas. our animals are being tortured spiritually as well. my preacher and his wife and two other preachers have already done what they can do.. but the demons are still here. they mess with my breathing machine stove and other electronics but mostly agravate our animals to get to us. i have a small dog, and my neigbor has a persion cat. sorry for spelling. any help would be appreciated. my phone number is 865-471-5095. thank you and god bless. keeping the faith in jesus and god always. sherry b. johnson and honey mae, caroline and alex.....HELP!
ReplyDeleteNeed help in dealing with everyday attacks. It has gotten to the point that I believe Christianity is a demonic church, since this all happen the moment I became born again. Within days, started hearing voices, now progressed to constant nightmares, voices nonstop trying to run my life. Prayer is pretty useless, been about 16 years and nothing has helped, so want out of this religion. Seen numerous spiritual leaders and no help, constantly get dreams that some supernatural will harm me and others, and it usually does in all areas of life. Really need help!
ReplyDeleteThanks

I don[t see any dates on these comments so hopefully it still open.
ReplyDeleteSpiritual warfare and deliverance can cover a many different topics.
But mine might scare the ... out of ya. I have been faithful-and loving to Jesus since a young quite young age-though I suffered at the hands of evil.
Encounters have been numerous with evil throughut my life but much more so now. I have become almost angry at
God that although I have love him dearly -he has abandoned me-and has allowed satan to tempt the evil doers to torment me ...to no end.
My once compassion has turned in raging anger...and opression at the same time...I want them punished now...why? Because God is allowing this for whatever reason...upon myself and those dear to me.
Today after suffering the worst trajedy a mother could suffer--I finally got mad at God...who doesn't seem to be answering..I was a pillar of strength..He helped me through alot...but it sometimes came faster than other times the help...I have mulitude attacks would be most unbelievable to most.
He seems to have turned a deaf ear to me...testing me-in my great weakness??? allowing the wolves to attack again an again from every angle possible. I despise evil and everything it represents-for behind every evil act is Satan-
Believe it or not..I see that his hand on so many is so strong today..but stilll where is the Lord. revelations tells us this would come to pass..the lord will be there -but he will allow more lee way for the devil. are these the days?? I have seen heaven-I have seen the face of angels and the face of God...I have seen that which is beyond human comprehension-i have been ridiculed mocked...but I have failed at being humble ...it seems..
spiritual warfare./satan hasn't scared me for some great time...until he pushed a multitude of weak and unbelievers and evil people towards me..God has created many miracles i will add...But deliverance has not come...when will i find rest?
My heart goes out to you sister. I am going through some extreme testing that feels too that it will not end. But fortunately, my experience as a Christian gives me enough such time periods to look back upon and know that they will end.
DeleteHeb 12:3 comes to mind as I write this, as do other Scriptures about not giving up. A LOT of Christians have turned the back upon the Lord; don't be one of those. Ride it out, keep looking at the Crown He promises at the end, and think of poor Job whose perspective so seriously changed when God brought him out on top. Hang in there. Will I see you when He comes?
Love, a Sister in Christ
just another comment as i read one at the bottom of this page..after being born again-how she suffered.
ReplyDeleteCan we not just call it deliverance-because using the term born again-does not induce divinity.We will still remain in this world..and nothing will be perfect.Yet unity in love will bring freedom.
We were born already- Jesus died for us and for the redemption of sins. that we may be forgiven of our sins at any given moment-if in sincere repentance of them..
When John the baptist , poured water upon the peoples -He exclaimed i baptize you with water but the one that is coming will baptize you with the holy spirit.
Many churches are failing-at praying for the wisdom to understand the words of the holy bible in Jesus name.
the woman feels she is suffering it happens when we enter in the realm of the holy spirit for there is where satan wants souls-the ones sincerely chosen by God.
Dear woman-fear not- for satan is merely a stain easily removed by simply the love of God. Do not fret but call out to Jesus-and any and all evil will depart. Trust in him.
I guess i still got my faith.smile
and God be with you all in strength and happiness and unity and in forgiveness and reconcilation ...Please pray for me as well ..those who are faithful iin the realm and presence of God our Father Jesus Christ.
God bless and diminish all evil from those in their journey with God.
Peace
I thought it was going to be some boring old post, but it really compensated for my time. I will post a link to this page on my blog. I am sure my visitors will find that very useful.
ReplyDeletePrayer and praying the Scriptures is a great defense. The Word of God is noted as a sword so it's also important to memorize some verses that appeal to you. The Psalms are filled with verses which speak to most any situation going on in your life. I've discovered praying in the morning before the bigger distractions of the day is the best time and when praying, on the knees. Prayer is vital and necessary. Remember that no matter how tough it gets to also pray for others. We can be more effective when also praying for those who need our prayers. Our troubles and worries seem to diminish when asking God to also help those others who need Him, too.
ReplyDelete"Satan trembles when he sees the weakest saint upon his knees".
Thank you for this blog.
ReplyDeleteI am curious. I can find nowhere in the Bible that gives any indication either in principle or by illustration, that self-deliverance or self-healing without involving another in the Body is Biblically valid. By nature, from what I've observed, Scripture centers almost every subject around an individual operating in a corporate setting. Aside from King Hezekiah seeking God directly through supplicating prayer to God, and also Paul - one being healed and the other not - I find few exceptions and none that reflect my first statement. Any input would be appreciated.
I note this comment thread has attracted commentary from those who have been abused by the therapy practices and beliefs of John and Glenys Darnell of the Shepherd's Heart Church in Canberra in Australia.
ReplyDeleteI have written about the Darnells at my website:
http://baliset.blogspot.com.au/2011/11/who-are-shepherds-heart-and-what-do.html
And this has led to investigative stories appearing in the Sydney Morning Herald and Melbourne Age newspapers, and on the TV show "A Current Affair" (links to each of these at my website). A complaint has also been made to the Health Services Commissioner in the Australian Capital Territory.
As a result of this publicity, I have been approached by a number of people who have known the Darnells over the years. People who have lived with them, who knew them in the United Kingdom, who knew them in other contexts, and people who have been treated by their "therapy" for Dissociative Identity Disorder and supposed Ritual Satanic Abuse. Many, many contacts and the most amazing co-incidences.
I suggest that if you believe in this kind of thing, you should at least pause and ask yourself if the worst enemies of Christianity are not those who oppose it openly, but rather, people who draw it into disrepute by promoting beliefs that are, by anyone's standards (and especially the standards of most Christians), completely loony, dangerous and risible. The worst thing for good religion is not the anti-religious, but bad religion spouted in the name of Jesus Christ, including things like teaching mentally vulnerable women that they are part demon, and that they have been kidnapped by demonically piloted UFOs (built by Nazis) and taken to a secret underground base to have embryos removed that were impregnated by demons. This is what the Darnells believe.
Commenter ChristTheLion and others who have encountered the Darnells are strongly encouraged to contact me directly, as this issue is very much 'live' in ways I shan't discuss here.
Contact me through the link on my profile at my website.
Hi, thank god for this site. I am praying and fasting for my brother , and am speaking in faith and believing he is set free and delivered from alchol and demons my family has been going thru spiritual warfare . Please pray for all of my family. i no my prayers will be answered!!the area we live in has alot of witchcraft and black magic that my half sister is in ..
ReplyDeleteHi all, I am a servant Of God called into deliverance. I will like to help anyone that needs deliverance, distance is not a barrier, the hand of the Lord is not short that it can not reach you wherever you are or his eyes blind that he can not see you where ever you.
DeleteGod is not wicked, he is still the same yesterday, today and forever, he has not changed and he will never change.
Jeri 32V27- He is God of all flesh and there is nothing too difficult for him to do. Yours will not be different in Jesus name.
Please pray for me,I have been having this problem for quite some time. I live in Tulsa,Ok. There is people in the occult that are trying hard to cause me problems and etc and they are in the occult.I need prayer that the Lord will keep them from finding me and being able to see me(2nd Kings 6:18). I am trying to work with a deliverance person and doing the best that I can. Pray judgement on these Satanist and that the Lord will do what ever means to stop them and etc. Thanks and God Bless.Ellice
