Carry around with you some images (printed out artwork) then to ponder over if you have difficulties imagining them?

"First and foremost, while I'm not normally a skeptic , have you seen a psychologist? I ask because if you contact a mainstream Catholic/Eastern Orthodox/Anglican (Episcopal) Priest or Pastor, that's the first question they will ask you. All exorcists have to rule out some form of mental illness before they are allowed to begin an official exorcism."
Yes I have seen a doctor, and I've been examined throughly, but nothing indicates for any illness.

"Going with the first option, likely you will be put on some form of anti-depressants, and/or mind altering medications. This does not mean that you are "crazy" but it may indicate an imbalance of some kind and may in fact be the problem. I suggest you do this before anything else, just in case. "

Thank you for the suggestion, but it's not necessary, you would think the same way if u had more information.

"Keep us informed of your progress."

I will. :-)

I believe you Ben. Trust me, I've seen it and experienced it too. I just wanted to rule out any other options first.

Ben - once the devil has had a strong hold on you - they don't like to give you up-
There are two kinds of demon trying to control you - one is demon oppression and the other is demon obsession.

Once you have been saved the demons cannot obsess your spirit - but can still be oppressive trying to kill you or to draw you away from Jesus.

Just keep close to Jesus - pray and read the word and keep repeating what is in me is greater than what is in the world. Get Baptised and stay close to Jesus for he tells us in His word that He will never leave us - you can always rest assured that Jesus is with you.

Don't let the enemy bring back thoughts to your mind of things you have done - because once you have repented God has wiped the slate clean and all your sins are in the sea of forgetfullness and when you bring them up to Jesus again - he remembers them no more - You are a child of God - a child of the Most High God - you are seated on the right hand of God and no one can snatch you away from Him.

Hold your head up high, you are forgiven and are as important to Jesus as any one born. Keep your knowledge of knowing that Jesus walks with you at all times - you are led by His Holy Spirit and you will learn to listen to that still small voice and you will know that He is with you always.

Get the pure olive oil and make the sign of the cross over all your doors and windows and pray the pray of binding everything that is not of Jesus away from you - they will still try to be around you because their one duty is to kill you - but keep repeating what is in me is greater than what is in the world - stay in the word - don't talk to them, just ignor them - they do not abide inside of you now - only oppress you - they have no control over you now - you are a child of God.

I don’t know what has happened, but maybe posting this story has been a real blessing for me. The ugly images that have disturbed my thoughts have almost completely ended, and I can feel that these bad spirits are weakening. I presume you have prayed, I don’t know how to thank you people enough, but I’m thanking you very much. Thank you!! I’m thinking of posting my story to the prayer request board. Let’s see what happens then!

There are many physical and mental symptoms that we may experience as a result of having a demon. Ongoing bondages to fear, depression, rejection, and so forth are usually good indicators. But we find hope in what God tells us:

2 Corinthians 10:3-5 3 For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. 4 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. 5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

1 John 5:14-15 tells us, "This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us - whatever we ask - we know that we have what we asked of him." No matter the person praying, the passion behind the prayer, or the purpose of the prayer - God answers prayers that are in agreement with His will. His answers are not always yes, but are always in our best interest. When our desires line up with His will, we will come to understand that in time. When we pray passionately and purposefully, according to God's will, God responds powerfully!

I'm not sure if you have a church you attend regularly, but I'd encourage you to find a church that preaches a message that fills you spiritually. Finding some good Christian support and teachings will strengthen you. As we continue to pray for you, please go before the Lord yourself in prayer when you have these feelings come over you.

Sometimes negative things in our lives can appear as everyday things like stress in day to day activities. From my personal experience, God operates for the most part in ways that are consistent with the physical world.

I've never personally experienced something like you have but I think you're right in assuming that it's some sort of sign. Even when bad things happen, there are often signs that lead us in the right direction.
