Thats the thing, it was your imagination. A dream..
Dreams can be angels or even God contacting you, as in Matthew 1:20
But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.

I've had demons attack me in dreams and also had Jesus talk to me in a dream. When Jesus spoke to me, he told me about a man who needed me to lift up my sufferings for him. When I did as I was told in the dream, I spoke to the man later and he was shocked at how much the dream mirrored what he was really going through.

If you are taking any medications it's possible that they are the culprit for the vivid dreams rather than any demonic force. Certain antidepressants and antipsychotic medications are especially prone to causing nightmares and bizarre dreams, but several other drugs can also cause them. I had psychedelic dreams due to taking an anti-malarial before we went to South America. I still remember one recurrent dream even though I was really young at the time. In it my dad had an evil twin trying to kidnap me, and the only way I could tell them apart was by their socks. My dad's were always green, though in real life I don't think he's ever worn green socks... Not all that scary, but at the time it was, ha. Hope you can get some peaceful sleep.

That's really interesting. How do the medications cause bizarre dreams?

Lots of stuff can cause dreams but Idk the why really. I know my mom had a lot of weird dreams when she was pregnant w my brother. I think hormones or something.

You can try to explain it scientifically and cut the spiritual out like the rest of the world, but I don't take meds. I refuse.

Well is there medication you're supposed to take but you don't? I read a thread you wrote being hospitalized for a psychotic breakdown or something. Sounded scary. Maybe this is something that you should talk about w your priest & dr?

Some medicine messes with your brain chemistry and since all dreams are are electrical signals in the brain, they can get messed up if your brain interprets the signals differently.

For example, I've had medicine that gave me the most vivid waking dreams. I would sit up in my bed, eyes open, but still asleep and thinking I was at work. Not fun.

That's not to say whether Mikhail is having a chemical issue or a spiritual one. Could be both, in fact.

Mikhael, I'd say talk to your pastor about it and see what he says. Definitely a messed up dream. I usually wake up and say the Jesus Prayer after a nightmare.

In my dream, a demon was following me around. It was a female demon. She had rotted yet gray flesh and presented herself as about 12 years old. All I had to do was accept her into my life and she would heal me of my illnesses. I kept running from her until I finally woke up singing, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life."
The devil is trying really really hard right now. God bless you.

You were demonically attacked in a dream ?

You realize they aren't real, right ?

if they weren't real, then what did Jesus and his disciples cast out?
if they weren't real, then what was it that went into the pigs who ran over a cliff and plunged to their death?
if they weren't real, then what was Saint Padre Pio fighting off?

demons are the fallen angels that were cast out of heaven by God Himself.
so God must think that they are real.

I think Charlie is referring to dreams, not demons...
but not all dreams are just our imagination....or the result of too much pepperoni on the pizza.;)

I English a preposition refers back to a noun "demonically" is a adverb in the previous sentence.

Hence, I could not be referring to anything other than "dream"
