hey guys last night I had a horrible dream. Someone made me spy on this girl (which i think evidently turned into a wolf) and so I did. The girl was friendly at first and then bit me in the face. It then started tearing at me, biting me everywhere. I was screaming for help but nothing. I then escaped with scratches everywhere.
When I woke up I remembered this dream and then remembered a while back I woke up from a sleep with two claw marks down my chest (i have no nails, i bite them, and no sharp objects around me) ive had a few of these incidents and my family just laugh it off. Is/was this an attack?

At least it wasn't real. This is why regular Bible reading can fill the mind with profitable things, so that when bad thoughts and dreams come, the person is already very much thinking of profitable things instead.
The scratch marks were real

my daughter would have night terrors like that (different than 'nightmares' because of the intensity, etc.) She would wake up with scratches, etc. Find other Christian brothers and sisters who understand this and pray together, sister.

I had what i call a night terror where a dark figure was standing over me while i slept and i was sorta' paralyzed...i somehow squeaked out "Jesus help me!" and i woke up. i was shaking so bad.

Do a study with fellow believers on this verse:

"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." ~James 4:7

Praying for you, sister.

Thank you so very much, that is why i wrote this thread. I have A LOT of lucid dreams but are due to my medications i am taking, but the nature doesn't add up. I sometimes see people walking past me in bed, i have feelings their sleeping with me etc. My house has had weird things happening, like skulls appearing in pictures. God bless you.

Some ppl are put off by skulls; others have adapted the skull motif to good effect, like with flowers, etc. Some ppl like skull tattoos, etc.

I believe in spiritual warfare, literally. The Bible admonishes us and warns us about this. I also believe that places, and generations can experience evil from generations before them.

Find Christian brothers and sisters in Christ who understand spiritual warfare, in all its forms. Pray together.

In the meantime, praying for you, sister, and your household.

Praying for you. Science calls it sleep disorder but the Bible calls it Spiritual warfare. It's not a joke.

The Armor of God
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.
Ephesians 6:12New International Version (NIV)
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities,against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

I too think this is no joke. Your war is in your face and it appears some of your defenses have been breached, either because you have never repented and secured them or because you have open spiritual doors that need closing. Don't you have any mature christians where you live who can help you with this DTR ? A forum like this is way too open to enemy infiltration for you to be discussing the particulars of your situation IMO.

Q. Do you pray in tongues ? Do you have a spiritual language ? It's a very powerful tool that you need.
