I think a demon left me

[squeehunter]

I've been wresteling with this fear of getting sick and dieing a horrible death for the last few years but I had a dream last week and it changed things.

I was asleep on my loveseat and wasn't having a dream already but then out of no where it felt like someone came behind me and grabbed my neck. And I woke up scared to death. I've never had a dream like that before. Either I wake up scared not remembering it or I have a dream leading up to it.

It turns out, the next day, my worries were almost gone. They have never been that easy to get over. I think the demon is losing and tried whatever he could to get me.

This constant pain made me learn that if I can't live my life for myself I'll help other (missionary-ism) and I think it was God training me to deal with things later on. I guess he thinks I suffered enough and learned enough.

That's great! What a relief. Remember that God's power dwells and works within you, so you can resist what the enemy is doing, even without your own striving. God has the authority to do all sorts of things (anything), so this authority within you is enough for you to chase the demon away again. If it ever shows up again, tell it to never come back.

Read scriptures out loud... Neither death, not life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:38)

Mt 8:17 This was to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet Isaiah, "He himself took our infirmities and bore our diseases."
Isa 53:4
Surely he has borne our infirmities and carried our diseases.

Keep thanking God for all he does for you -- delivering you from things that drag you down.


He is our deliverer!

Well, sometimes what happens in our dream also scares us as humans to react. I remember having a similar dream like that when I was very young where something grabbed me by the neck and I choked and woke up choking and scared. I find it strange how you were grabbed by the neck too...

You do things while sleeping that you are not consciously aware of doing. Your subconscious mind and soul probably fixed the feelings you've been having in your waking life. As for whatever attacked you, you should pray to God for it not to happen again. Evil spirits in the first place are attached to evil things, so you praying to God, etc, would definitely make them not want to be around you.

One- you don't just go to sleep and everything is fixed. God fixes the problem.

Two- A scientist would come up with that answer.

What I meant is dreams make you feel better. I know that after I dream, I feel very refreshed and more awake.

I woke up choking a couple of nites ago, I could breath in, but could not breath out for several minutes. It just feels like you are never going to get your breath, I've had this happens a few times. it scares you everytime. but I just kept calling out to God. and he delievered.
