Hi :)

I think it would be a really good idea to gather a few Christian friends together at your place for prayer and to get that spirit out of your house quick smart.

God bless you and your child with safety, protection, and courage and peace, and His full suit of armour too. In Jesus name. Amen.
Ahhh, thank you. I was waiting for someone to actually say this.

Now, if I come off as harsh to anyone, this is not my intention. During Bible college, I took a Spiritual Warfare class and learned so much on how to defeat "fear" during these things. So if you're sensing me being harsh, I am just fully passionate to see people become free from fear and from demonic activity and seeing God being glorified.

Sure, you're not in danger since you are a child of God....like someone said earlier, God does protect you. However, just because I am a daughter of God and am safe in his arms, I STILL HAVE AN ENEMY WHO IS OUT TO GET ME and can still get attacked. So even though you shouldn't fear, you should be aware that there is spiritual warfare out there. You just have authority. Ephesians 6 talks about putting on the full armor of God....even the children of God. Why? Because we are still in spiritual warfare, even when we are protected. I was a strong enough Christian and a follower of Christ, and I heard a demon whispering in my ear. It wasn't until after months of seeing and hearing things, when I just went about in my house and prayed and cast out everything. And there hasn't been anything for 6 years.

What you saw wasn't a "man," like many people said here (I mean, men just don't disappear), and neither is it a ghost. What your daughter saw was a demon.

As children of God, we do have authority. 'Behold, I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions.' You have every authority to speak the name of Jesus and to cast anything out. I don't know what your relationship with the Lord looks like, I don't know who's in the household who is saved and who is not. But, in order to be able to pray and cast anything that is not of God out of your house, you must be a Christian. No demon is going to listen to someone who doesn't believe they have the authority and aren't Christians.

It may be wise to get a group of Christian friends. Maybe even a pastor, to come and pray over the house. Make sure you know you have that authority! Because, you got it :)

Here are some scriptures for your own comfort.

Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Luke 10:19

Then He called His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases. Luke 9:1

“And when He had called His twelve disciples to Him, He gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.” Matthew 10:1

"No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from me,” says the Lord. Isaiah 54:17

“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” Acts 1:8

That is SOOOOO presumptuous!!!! YOU do not KNOW it was a demon... the child was only a little afraid.... SHE COULD HAVE SEEN AN ANGEL... she is 4. Please do not presume to tell people they are experiencing demonic manifestations just because you happen to have learned something during college!

Sorry if I stepped on any toes. Like I said, I didn't mean to come off as offensive. But I figured some people would.

And you are right, the child was just a tiny bit scared. :)

It could have been an angel, or it couldn't have been. Throughout the Bible, when angels appear, there's a message that's always been delivered. They always said something, they were very direct, or made their mission know as to why they are here. This man didn't. When angels appear, they tell you specifically why they are here.

I don't think it was angel. I believe, 100%, it was a demon. You can feel free to disagree. That's your right of a difference of an opinion :) When I mentioned Bible college, I mentioned that I learned on how to live without fear with spiritual warfare.

I've already said my piece and am not changing my thoughts of opinions. I'm sorry if that upsets any of you! You can be sarcastic and rude to me, but I'm not going to resort to that with any of you because I don't think anyone should be treated like that. :) Feel free to say anything you want, but I'm not going to stick around just because our opinions differ.

Again, I apologize if my thoughts have rubbed anyone the wrong way! I think all of you are great ;)

I was neither sarcastic or rude. I wanted to know how you dealt with I saw a bullfrog on my bed.

Clue for my sarcasm -- it tends to hyperbole in humorous ways. My sarcastic answer would have built up a more humorous look for that bullfrog. (I do get people don't get my sense of humor immediately, but this was one time when I wasn't even trying to be funny. Oh, and I also get my humor sometimes goes over like a lead balloon, but that's a different story that could probably be built up on the hyperbole level. THAT was supposed to be funny, but, at best, makes someone groan, not laugh.)

Believe and pray these scriptures over your lives Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.

and Ps 23, The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures.He leads me beside still waters.[a] 3 He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness[b] for his name's sake. 4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,[c] I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows. 6 Surely[d] goodness and mercy[e] shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell[f] in the house of the Lord forever.[g]
ps 91 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. 3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.


4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. 5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; 6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. 9 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; 10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. 11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. 12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. 13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. 14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. 15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. 16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

She doesn't have any health issues that may lead her to hallucinate, right? I've had hallucinations when I don't sleep enough, for example.

Who do YOU say that I AM??
I had an awake vision of a person I did not recognize.. I was not at all scared.. the very first thing I did is ask God if He was making an appearance and if so to help me recognize Him as I know my image of Him may be of a distorted view.. prettier manifestations have been appearing in the sky lately.. I've been capturing them in photos.. God helps out our distorted views and corrects them.. just remember to go directly to Him when such things occur... I was more frighten because I didn't recognize He might pay someone like me a visit . now I'm becoming more familiar when he makes an appearance in His way..We have to remember he is the creator of all .. is in all..I am more relaxed now by the vessels he works through and some of the most interesting manifestations have been through the use of the sun,clouds, rainbows and lightening.. I first saw him as a person that looked .. well.... I will just say my view was very distorted... he is among us and with us as well as in us... his image isn't distorted... but our view of Him can really be...

Hello everyone, my daughter is 4 years old. Last night she said she saw a man standing on the side of our bed and that he walked away towards our restroom then disappeared.

She was a little scared not too much, I think I was more afraid than her, I couldn't seem to go back to sleep after that.

I believe her and don't think it was her imagination, she's very smart and wouldn't lie about something like that.

I don't want her seeing things again. Please help. It's the first time this has happened.

Thank you!
My mother said we used to see things like that all the time as kids. She miscarried my twin brother, and when I was three I asked her about him. She didn't know where I had heard about him because she never told me, my response to her was "He visits me sometimes." Although I haven't seen things like this much, I have seen them before and do believe in the supernatural. I think it may just be a spirit passing through and you might not ever see that one again. I've seen things like that, but then never again in the same house. In fact, I can only remember one instance that I actually remember not just told that I said it or saw it. One was while I was laying in my friend's living room and saw a shadow come out of the back room, I thought it was his older brother going to his room. They had a big couch sitting in the center of the room and he walked in between that and the wall, going around it like Dakota always does going into his room. But he never came out the other side. To this day Dakota swears up and down he was in the back room the entire time, but I've never seen anything like that since

This could very well be spiritual. Your daughter could have seen angel or a demonic being. I would suggest that you anoint your home inside and out. Anoint those who live within the home. Have Christian music playing through out your home. Ask GOD to Reveal to you what your daughter experienced.

Not sure how long you have lived in your home but from experience I have learned that people who live unholy lives have evil spirits that follow them and take up territory. If you rent find out if the owner of the house is Christian? If you own it could be the previous owner. Either way Anointing the home and all those who live there. Pray a hedge of protection. Any and all who are not of GOD must flee. I would suggest the head of the house Anoint the home.

The best way to know if the spirit is of GOD or not is.
1. GOD does not give us a spirit of fear. so we know fear comes from satan.
2. GOD's angels protect, give a message and or sent for specific reason from GOD.
3. satan sends illusions, play tricks, causes confusion.etc

Some people GOD has allowed to see spiritual beings and satan who tries to mimic GOD sends illusions. Those who have the Gift to see states there is a difference in what they see. Fear does make the evil spirits stronger because it gives them room to cause a stronghold. Fear will cause one not to use the GOD Given Authority to remove them.

Have a Prayer meeting at your home with those whom are Very strong in the Faith.

Blessings!!!!!!!

She was probably having a dream where she thought she was awake but she was asleep and dreaming instead.
