Actually, to you both I say, that this is a classic case of harassment. Is division more important than compassion, for what this little one is going through?
Just because I don't agree that she is being oppressed by "the devil and his demons" doesn't mean I don't have compassion....far from it.

Actually I have far more compassion for her because folks like you are actually feeding her fears by convincing her that she IS being "harassed by the devil", and you're using her youth and naivety to your advantage. It sickens me.

Is there anyone that can offer some sort of explanation as to why I keep having these demonic dreams and why do most of my dreams come to pass. ALSO, can you tell me if what I experienced (the shadow hand touching me and the climbing onto my bed with the growling) could possibly be real?????????????????

Is any of what you've described real? None of us knows. You could be giving us complete fictions just to wind us up a bit. We simply have to take your word for it that what you're telling us is true. Not being at least a little skeptical, then, of what you've told us would be foolish.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, however, and assume you're not just yanking my chain. My only question to you is: In what way are you involved in the occult? Do you watch horror movies? Do you read horror or occultic novels/books? Have you had your palm read? How about a tarot card reading? Horoscopes? Ouija boards? Seances? Are you into pornography or drugs? Are either of your parents involved in any of this stuff?

The only reason you would be so overtly accosted by the demonic is if in some way you have thrown wide the door to the demonic in your life. Or one (or both) of your parents has. In any case, the fact of the matter is that Christ has already defeated the dark forces of Satan at the cross:

Hebrews 2:14-15
14 Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,
15 and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.


1 John 3:8
8 ...For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.


Satan is, for the disciple of Christ, a defeated foe. He has no more power in the life of a believer than the believer gives him. Scripture is very clear how the demonic is to be handled by Christians:

Ephesians 5:8-12
8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light
9 (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth),
10 finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.
11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.
12 For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.


Ephesians 6:10-18
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;
18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints--

2 Corinthians 10:3-5
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.
4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds,
5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,

Revelation 12:10-11
10 Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

Of course! They're after all of us. But they won't get you or me because of God's protection, as long as we stick with God and follow the shepherd, Jesus.

Doesn't mean they won't attack. Doesn't mean they won't be able to actually hurt you. They might, and they can.

Does mean that they can't mortally take you and haul your spirit off - God's seal is on you, and they can't break that. Only YOU can break that, through mortal sin. So don't commit mortal sin (and if you do, confess it and be absolved of it through the power of God) - forgive everybody everything, and you too shall be forgiven everything by your heavenly Father, just as Jesus promised.

So yes, you're under siege by the Devil and by demons. We all are. You are apparently more sensitive to it and so see it more clearly, or are perhaps closer to the front lines than many, because of special gifts from God. The closer you are to God, the more the Devil and demons try to drag you back down. That's the way of it.

But as long as you keep your eyes on God by following Jesus, the evil forces cannot win in the end.

MOD HAT ON

This thread has been closed since there have been a few issues - we cannot discuss deliverance or freeing people from demons here. There have also been some debates, and this is a debate free area.

If you need further assistance you can try the Ask a Chaplain area, or the Prayer Request area to ask for prayers as well.
