Getting free from Demonic attacks alone?

[Inkachu]

BFine, I don't know what to call it except DEPRIVE! I won't go into detail because I have talked about it in other threads in the past. But all y life, it seems like everything I try for is snatched away from me - repeatedly. I've never had a dream come true - no matter how hard I try. If I get my heart set on going somewhere or getting something I've always wanted - at the last minute, I lose it. This has been all my life. I save a little money back, something will happen to take it - every time!
Just this summer, I was suppose to move to Texas with a relative. I had stuff in storage and was trying to save money. But after I bought my (non-refunnable) ticket, it fell through.

That is called life. That is not demonic attack.

OK, I'm sorry, but I get ticked off when people say that. Part of the reason I didn't want to give the name or description of it is because other people just brush it off as "that's life" or "you must being sinning" I've heard it all. The things that have happened a FAR beyond just life or coincidence. It's just like my health, I try to explain it to others, there was a time in my life for years I was so weak my legs would give out and I'd crawl because I couldn't stand. You'd be surprise how often people turn there noses in the air and say "Oh everybody goes through that!" -?!?
I am grateful for the advise others have given me and your prayers. Thank you.

*I also apologize if I sound whiny - I get depressed at times and it shows.*

I'm not discounting any of your feelings, 1hope. They're real and you experience them.

But you need to bear in mind that many people find it easier to view life's struggles, trials, and disappointments as demonic or satanic attacks. Not only does it absolve them of having culpability in the situation(s), but it gives them a target for their hurt, anger, and resentment. It's much more comfortable to "blame" someone, like a demonic entity, than to say "I don't know why this happened".

I've seen other people right here on CF say the exact same things that you've said. They feel they've been "deprived" of everything in life. Nothing comes easy. Everything is a struggle. One step forward, two steps back. And it must all be because the devil is all over them, trying to oppress them.

If you really believe that your problems are solely demonic in nature, and you have no responsibility for any of your problems, then you shouldn't feel ticked off at anything I said. If you KNOW that you're right and you're justified, then you should be able to brush off my opinions as incorrect and completely without merit.

I am not "turning my nose in the air". I know that your feelings and beliefs here are genuine for you. But I'm not going to lie to you in order to appease you and tell you something that I don't believe is the truth.

When someone is suffering, it's usually because 1) they've made poor choices and are suffering the consequences or 2) God is allowing trials into their life in order to teach them something. I don't think there's a "demonic attack" option simply because life is tough. There are many, many people out there who have it a lot worse than you do. Are they all being harangued by demons?

Think about it.

I've read your other posts. I know some of the details of your background. I think you've held onto this victim-ish mentality for a long, long time, and that's not healthy or helpful for you. A couple of months ago, you mentioned considering seeing a professional counselor; have you acted on that? I think it might do you a lot of good to try that.

*I do understand because I have been through a lot of stuff in my own life...
on-going health issues, dealing with bigotry for the greatest portion of my life,
persecution, abject poverty etc. I know how it is to face one thing after another,
after another --- on and on.
I was born in poverty, my family's home was a shack
that didn't have electricity or indoor plumbing... my first bed in life was
a dresser drawer.

I watched how other people lived around us, they had all they needed but the
thing I picked up on early in life was--- they lacked the ability to show
compassion to the "least of these"...they saw our poverty but turned away.
That was OK....we learned to live off the land before my dad got too sick he
spent time teaching us how to hunt, fish, garden etc.

People can say whatever they feel like saying but it doesn't mean what you're
dealing with isn't happening or has happened.
The majority of people who talk down to you and or talk bad about you are also the same people who won't help you out..I discovered this when I was a little girl.

I know that going through so much "stuff" grew my faith and brought me
into a closer walk with the Lord. I know this is how one matures spiritually and physically--- one can learn to do spiritual warfare, they can develop more patience, develop character, learn to stand firm on God's Word, learn to persevere, work on their own issues of pride, greed, covertness etc.
One still has to go through battles, one will be tested/tried
to show whether they are true.

I've learned from trials/tribulations...
I know about suffering because I'm well acquainted with it.
I understand marginalization because I've experienced it most of my life.
I know how it is to have a disabled husband because mine is disabled due
to a workplace accident that subsequently costs him his left leg and brought
on other health issues since 2009.
No matter what comes my way/our way, God helps us through each
trial and or setback as we continue to rely upon Him.

**sigh** I had asked if anybody knew how to get free from a demonic attack. I am not 100% sure if it is or not. But it isn't for somebody else to say they know it isn't. If it is demonic I want to be set free - that's all. And my getting ticked is because I get tired of people -well judging me and being way off base.
I have been seeing a counselor for years.
The victim mentality - for years I actually thought I must have done something wrong against God -so I guess you could say I had a guilt complex for a long time. Forgive me, I just don't need peoples openions, I asked advice on demonic curses and holds. That's all.
