❤️ Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the powers and world rulers of present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Ephesians 6:12 From this it is very clear that even though the battle may seem invisible to the eyes, it is real. We always need to raise our mind and our spiritual sight to the Lord.❤️ 🙏 Amen 🙏

Everyday I go to a quiet place to pray and meditate. Then I watch podcasts like this and write down notes. I refer back to my notes often. I examine my heart to see that I'm in faith. Yes I fail at perfection. I sin. The goal isn't perfection. The goal is seeking GOD every second and every minute. We should always have GOD on our minds. Even if we mess up, reflect on GOD. Fasting is great way to get closer to GOD. Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in GOD with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him. And he shall direct your path.

So on point. There's this mountain cat that has been stalking me for quite some time now. Just as it has my scent I can smell it as well. It ate my chickens and roosters. It attack both of my dogs. I saw it when it was young and again now that it has grown. But meeting a black bear face to face on last year let me know God is real. Being old couldn't run but thank God this bear was full after eating my neighbors cat food. I'm living on they're property near a state park. So on point we must wear the full armor of GOD. our protector.❤

Adultery is also (or can be) a generational sin. My husband is a result of his mom having an affair oldest daughter is a result of him having an affair, his mom is the result of an affair, she's got at least 2 siblings that were put up for adoption that were the results of affairs from her mom. Her bio-dad & his brother's apparently it was common for them to have affairs. Divorce isn't as common, but it's happened. I keep praying that the affair gene's haven't been passed down to my kid's where they are "active." I pray it stops with their dad, whose had affairs during our marriage, don't know if any have resulted in a child yet or his past affairs (b4 me) has resulted in any more kid's, it'll eventually make itself known.

So true! Satan has two main objectives. One, he wants you to disobey the Word of God. Two, he wants you to bow down and worship him. Friends, never forget this, it could save you! In Matt 6:5-16 Yeshua teaches us how to pray, verse 7 he says don't go on babbling like the pagans. Now every church I have visited, and I have gone to many churches, adds word to the end of the Lord's prayer! Why? It is perfect as it is, the Word of God is without flaw. With this, Satan rejoices, he tricked you. You are disobedient and he won that battle! Keep the Faith....James

Ok, so how do you delineate between mental illness and spiritual attacks? In speaking from experience, having a mental disability that reoccurs from time to time, well yea how can someone even begin to suggest that I'm/someone else is under a attack from the enemy and not brain imbalances? I think that as time has passed, better understanding of mental illness, it's not "demons" and that creates a huge issue for these so called spiritual attacks. Big gray area now, real big one

@billy_dingo7 4 ай бұрын

The short answer to this question is that the Bible does not speak to distinguishing between demon possession and a psychological disorder. Because God chose not to equip Christians for this task, we should probably assume this is not something we are called to do. However, there are two things we know for sure from Scripture. First, we know from the Bible that demons can and do possess those who do not belong to Christ, and Scripture gives some examples of people being possessed by demons. From these descriptions, we can find some symptoms of demonic influence as well as gain insights as to how a demon possesses someone. In some of these passages, the demon possession causes physical ailments (inability to speak, epileptic symptoms, blindness, etc. [Matthew 9:32-33, Mark 9:17-18]); in other cases the demon causes the individual to do evil (Judas is the main example); in Acts 16:16-18, the spirit apparently gave a slave girl some ability to know things beyond her own learning (a spirit of divination); in the case of the demoniac of the Gadarenes who was possessed by a multitude of demons, he had superhuman strength, cut himself, went around naked, and lived among the tombstones (Mark 5:1-17). King Saul, after rebelling against the LORD, was troubled by an evil spirit (1 Samuel 16:14-15; 18:10-11; 19:9-10) with the apparent effect of a melancholy mood and an increased desire and readiness to kill David (God’s next anointed king of Israel). Second, we should be greatly encouraged to know that it is impossible for a Christian to be possessed by a demon. The believer is indwelt by the Holy Spirit of God who comes to reside in our hearts when we give our lives to Christ (2 Corinthians 1:22). The description of a possessing demon as “evil” means “unclean” in the Greek (Mark 5:2), therefore making it impossible for the Holy Spirit to share His dwelling place with such a creature. For those who do not have the Holy Spirit, however, no amount of “cleaning up their lives” will prevent a demon from possessing or influencing them. The parable Jesus told in Matthew 12:43 makes this clear: “When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then he says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first.” Jesus is teaching here that we are incapable of sweeping and putting “in order” our own hearts because our hearts are “deceitful above all things and desperately wicked” (Jeremiah 17:9 KJV). Only God can regenerate us and create in us a new heart (Ezekiel 36:26) and make us new creatures in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). However, while Christians cannot be possessed by a demon, this is not to be confused with being influenced by one. The apostle Peter is an illustration of a believer who was influenced by the devil (Matthew 16:23). This can occur especially when we are not mature in the faith and not sufficiently involved in the spiritual disciplines of regular study of Scripture and prayer. Lastly, a word to the wise: some people develop an unhealthy fascination with the occult and demonic activity. This is ill advised to say the least. If we pursue God with our lives and we are clothing ourselves with His armor and relying upon His strength (not our own) (Ephesians 6:10-18), we have nothing to fear from the evil ones, for God rules over all! When we are in Christ, and He in us, we have nothing to fear from the evil one because “He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world” (1 John 4:4). Hope this was helpful. Praise God.
