Many children today are afraid of the dark and imagine monsters under the bed, etc. Children do have a vivid imagination. I myself recall thinking at the age of 4 or 5 there were evil robots in my closet. Even so, there is a phenomena called "Invisible friend" persistant 'invisible friends' ARE demons. They come AS friends. Children have a wonderful, God-given ability to both see and hear in the spiritual realm. They come as friends, but have a very dark agenda...and is to kill, steal and destroy...at best in their opinion, the child, but they will settle for steal the child's destiny in the Kingdom of Heaven. were children seem to play with a ghost or even become tormented by it. Sometimes children have mentioned the names of dead relatives and can accurately describe them even though they have never seen them alive.Demons can manifest so that people can see them...they can also take the shape of humans. The verse about being careful because you might be engaging with an angel, refers both angels of God and angels of darkness.
Before I became a christian I was a psychic. A mother contacted me with a problem her 7 year old daughter had. She often talked about a friend called "Zoe" (Z-oh). She described this Zoe as being close to her age, dark hair, wearing a dress with small flowers printed on her dress. Zoe would often become scared and quiet when others were around. The mother became concerned as this Zoe had described herself as being dead and one late night looked into her daughter's room and saw a shadowy figure next to her bed. I only spoke once to this mother and referred her to a woman who was a medium I felt could help her more than I couldSadly, that is the blind leading the blind, spiritually speaking. A non-believer has no authority over any demon, so to send them to someone that does not serve Christ was futile. Hos 4:6, right?
The only other child I had any dealings with as a psychic had a tremendous impact on me. A young mother contacted me about her some odd black out spells she had. She said she would black out then , as she came back to her senses, she would have a terrifying "vision" of her young child, a toddler, dead in a coffin. She was very worried that she might die.
The first reading was all about the mother's past. This is always how it went for me and fake psychics never do this. It always gave me credibility. I accuratly described how she grew up, how she often cried about her alcoholic dad. I even gave her the name and gender of her childhood dog and how it would greet her by having it's paws on top of the gate.
The second reading changed my life. I tried to psychically see if there was an illness with her daughter. I found nothing. I continued to search for a cause in this girl for these visions. Suddenly in a vision, I saw a demon wave his hand in front of me as if to say, "Don't look here". I broke off that vision and continued. I then saw a vision of demons working in this girls life from with in her. From this, I told Tabitha, that her daughter had a demonic issue and perhaps she could see a Catholic priest fro an exorcism Sadly, here again, if the priest is not Born again/spiritually renewed and a member of the kingdom of Heaven, he also has no authority over any demons.
From that point on, my life became tormented, day and night. The spirits that were around me turned on me. I had uncontrollable visions of angry demons every single time I closed my eyes for more than a split second. Twice I was attacked in a physical way. When I tried to have vision to help others, I would see a demon blocking it. One night I asked a medium for help. She told me "Don't mention the demon's name". Before I could say "I don't know it" The demon spoke it's name three times in a row, in a goat like voice; "Baphomet, Baphomet, Baphomet".
Finally, I took my own advice and went to see a Catholic Priest to see if I could get some help. I ended up becoming a Christian. I did go to a deliverance ministry and they helped me out in tremendous ways. All they false things I had believed evaporated and I felt so ashamed for what I had done as a psychic. Even as I write this, tears still come. I made some amazing friends, most who were also struggling to get free from the demonic.How awesome is that?? The reason the demons messed with you after you referred the girl to the priest is because you were 'getting close' to the truth which would set you free. That was the last thing they wanted and their attempt was to fill you with fear so that you would NOT continue to seek Truth!!
So can children have a demon? They sure can.[/QUOTE I SO agree!! In fact...most, if not all, children DO have demons of one sort or another. They are connected to the curses of iniquity that they are born with due to generational sin.
