Over the last few years I've had several dreams where I end up waking up actually praying. Like you would wake up talking in your sleep. I can remember very vividly and in all most perfect detail the thing that is trying to hurt me or my family. Most of the dreams involve my sister my mom and an aunt. Most of the time those same people in every dream. This time it was a little different.


It was me my sister and an uncle(both of them where only there for a few
minutes) and we where in my room or what turned into my room(dream logic). There was this little witch, yes she was a real witch, calling on demons and using...I think it was hoodoo and voodoo or what ever. She was a little more than two feet tall, wearing a blue sack cloth dress, stringy hair couldnt tell if it was blond or gray. And her skin was purpleish gray, if it wasnt for that distorted grin on her face she might have been pretty, but at the same time her face kept changing. Every time she would call on a demon or cast a spell her face would go all grey and her mouth would get this like across it like Jack Skelingtons(from nightmare before christmas) mouth execpt not smiling. She also had very very thing long arms, but they where strong arms for being so thin.
She kept casting spells on me and trying to cut my head off saying she wanted it for her staff. The staff already had a head on it. It was like a large decaying shrunken head. I tried every thing I could to get her to stop, from taking that staff and knocking her over the head with it, bashing her into a wall all the time I was praying and rebuking her. I just waned her to stop talking so I could find out why she was doing this. She was also coming at me with rather large a knife and that dadgum staff of hers. Finally some how I ended up grabing her by the arms and carried her to my mom who was asking me what was going on and then I woke up.


This last dream has really disturbed me, and since my laptop was right here when I woke up.....I"m about to go see if my mom is up.

I would pray about this. Don't worry! God is stronger than any witch or demon. He can help you in this situation.

Frankly, all of these details are unimportant.

Can evil spirits attack you in dreams? Yes.

End of story, really. Pray to God. We get attacked all day, all night, all the time. We push on. We pray to God. There is never a reason to focus on nightmares or any such nonsense. (Unless they are from God. Yes, unlike fortune tellers, sometimes God has bad things to tell us of the future.)

Regardless, try and stay on the positive. If you know nothing great which is positive but only dark things, then avoid the dark things. Then you know something great positive. You have held out against great evil.

Be wary of blowing up such nonsense. It is just that, nonsense. Do not be flattered if attacked. God watches your every move and thought and is far greater then some minor spirit of the air.

I will try to remember praying for you.

Do you call on the name of the Lord? Demons fear the Name of Jesus. "Jesus, Jesus rebuke you, the blood of Jesus covers me...." Just saying those things are effective...if all else fails just say "Jesus Jesus Jesus..."

I'm not sure if saying "I rebuke you" is effective. It is important that Jesus is the authoritive one; anything out of ourselves is futile and can possibly make things worse.

Pray:
Jesus is Lord. Jesus rebuke the enemy and the demons. Thank you for your blood that covers us.

I know from personal experience that demons can and will attack you while asleep and dreaming. It has happened to me on more than one occasion with the only way to stop the mental assault is to call out out to Jesus. Thank the good Lord this has not happened in a very long time.

To prevent this I would suggest reading the bible or some other spiritually solid material before going to bed. I would also try to include some praise and worship along with your prayer time before laying down to go to sleep if you manage it. That way as you drift to sleep your mind is on God rather than something that may open a door for another demonic attack.

The thing to remember here though is that God is obviously doing a work in your life or this demon would not attack you in your sleep. With that in mind I want to encourage you to draw as near to the Lord as you possibly can. There is no doubt in my mind that God is going to use your life for His Glory in wonderful ways. The enemy is already aware. Now it's up to you to embrace God's calling for your life, whatever that may be, and begin to prepare. Just remember to keep your eyes on God and not the calling itself and everything will work out according to His will...

GOD BLESS YOU!

A few years ago I went to sleep, and I woke up in a place that was very dark. I could not see anything. I then looked up and saw this little opening where golden light was shining. Emediatly after i saw that someone was pushing me up wards. They pushed me up into the light and I woke up. I realized what had happend. Whatever this was, had enough power to put me into a coma. The light was in my body....the light was the holy spirit. When whatever or whoever it was pushed me into the light, that was me coming back into my body.

I recomend that you renounce any kind of evil. Renounce anything that your family has ever done to anyone. You need to renounce any witch craft. Any kind of curses that your family has put on someone else. Renounce any curse or evil that has been done to you. Some of your ancestors might have been demon worshipers or whatever.

I renounced all evil that was done in my family. The next day I felt alot better.

God Bless,
Katy

As the song says "Cry out to Jesus".

I was spiritually attacked multiple times while sleeping, and when my voice was paralyzed and i couldn't move or speak, I called out with my heart and mind for Jesus to help and save me, and in that moment i could breathe, sit up, speak and move again. Praise be, He is so much more than we could ever imagine!

YES THEY CAN!!!!!!! I was just awakened by one of the most horrible dreams of my life. Almost like yours. It seems to me like the holy spirit leaves me in the middle of the night and it is scaring the hell out of me. I was descending through my bed and these dark figures were tickling me. Some member of this message board itself was mentioned as having said that "sometimes I imagine jesus in a vat in front of my bed, a valiant savior ready to take me from my troubles." a satanic invocation no doubt whatsoevver. I swear, there are satanists here. Or I was projecting it on somebody. I prayed, jesus save me from this dream, which it may not have been, I almost couldn't wake up and then did. It scared the hell out of me. IT WAS REAL almost. Let us pray for one another.

Interesting dream. I was intrigued that your mother asked you "what are you going to do when you wake up." While you were dreaming, you were at least in part, conscious it was a dream, it seems.

The little witch could represent some stubborn situation in your life. One that seems small yet at the same time annoying, continuous, unrelenting, but not overpowering. The fact that it is a witch and casting spells, could be evidence that the problem is somehow connected to negative spiritual energy. This could simply be a wake up call that you need to present this issue to the Lord. The fact the witch who seems small wants your head, could indicate the spiritual entity is trying to take control of your thoughts, perhaps through occult material, new age garbage, or perhaps through the attitudes of associations with people you might need to break off.

We live in a day when we are bombarded from every side with sin and witchcraft (new age). It can seem impossible to keep ourselves clean, yet, we are called to live holy lives. Quite a conundrum! However, with God all things are possible.

I sympathize with you concern over the meaning of the dream. Lucid dreams can be very startling. As always, I recommend, keep your mind stayed on the Lord, he will then give you perfect peace and direct your paths. Ah! It is good to entrust yourself to the promises of his word!

Blessings!

Demons and the devil love nothing more than tormenting people of faith, as they know that they have no grasp on us because of our connection with God & Jesus. Try reading a funny book before bed, giving yourself happy images... Whilst in your happy state of mind, read some bible and have a pray before lights out!
