Demonic Possession?

Can a born again believer be possessed by the devil?

We know the disciples had the Spirit and did miracles but what about Judas? He was one of the twelve but we don't know for sure if he actually did miracles. We know that when Jesus said one of the twelve would betray Him, none of them knew which one would. If Judas didn't do miracles they might have suspected him but we don't find that. Either way, in John 13:27 it says Satan entered Judas.

Can a born again believer be possessed today?

What are you're thoughts?

Who is it that is ruling the world today? And who is it that has chosen to stand under the banner of the prince of darkness? Why, it is nearly the whole world at large. All the world that has not accepted Jesus Christ has chosen for their leader the prince of darkness, and just as soon as they stand under his banner, they have connection with evil angels.
Either the evil angels or the angels of God are controlling the minds of men. Our minds are given to the control of God or to the control of the powers of darkness, and it will be well for us to inquire where we are standing today--whether under the blood-stained banner of Prince Emmanuel or under the black banner of the powers of darkness. We must make every preparation in our power in order to resist the enemy of souls. Every provision has been made; everything in God's plan has been arranged so that man should not be left to his own impulses, to his own finite powers, to carry on the warfare against the powers of darkness in his own finite strength, because he would certainly fail if he were thus left to himself I thank the Lord that we have a power provided for us.

Satan Cannot Touch the Mind Not Surrendered to Him.--The interests most vital to you individually are in your own keeping. No one can damage them without your consent. All the satanic legions cannot injure you unless you open your soul to the arts and arrows of Satan. Your ruin can never take place until your will consents. If there is not pollution of mind in yourself, all the surrounding pollution cannot taint or defile you.--Lt 14, 1885
