Yes I had a demonic/angelic attack once. I never saw them but my dogs did, they used to look at the same invisible thing, and chase it all angry and fiercely growling. I have heard them, but the worst was a tremendous growl which shook me to my core. I was a prodigal at this time, and it helped save me. Demon or an angel? I'm not sure. It was scary like a demon, but the outcomes were positive. Many other things happened as well, which I am reluctant to discuss. I think about it every single day, even though it was many years ago. By the way, I didn't invite them, maybe through my lifestyle I did. But not a direct call out. I was very anti- god at that time in my life. Anyway, all I can say is that's its extremely frightening. True story. God bless.... and confusing

I was floored when one visited me. It was during a time of great tumult. I didn't see it personally, but the signs of his visitation were apparent. I still remember the first scripture I read that confirmed his appearance, Daniel 10:12 Then he said to me, "Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words.

That, and to this day, when I read scripture of the visions of Daniel or Ezekiel, etc, I get a special warmth. It's almost like a connection and a validation of the truth that I , too, have had visions of God. They are as terrifying and radical as the men in scripture make them out to be, and equally as transforming. They move you, shake you, rock you, scare you, tear you to your very core. Sometimes I question my ability to handle the fragments of myself left after these encounters with the Lord of Hosts, but I have to hold stead fast to what He's shown me, and that's to build on a solid foundation. The man who fell in Jesus' teaching from the end of His sermon on the mount, did indeed fall far. God bless you and spur on your faith to these things, brother.

When I was younger, I saw a very dark mass hovering along the ceiling. I could tell it was evil, by the feeling I got. My eyes were open, but it was like I was still asleep. I sat up in bed, yelled for my sister who I shared a room with, and she turned on the light. That was the first and last time it happened and I am so thankful. Also we moved out of the house where that was occurring, and I think a lot of it had to do with a graveyard being right on the other side of our fence in the backyard.

Oh to answer the rest of your questions. I was terrified, wondering if it was going to hurt me or my sister. The strange thing was though, I was more concerned for my sister than myself. I didn't talk to it, and I never would if it happened again. You don't want to start opening up doors like that. So, there ya go.

Yes. I believe for good and ill reasons, this happens to people. Mine was likely more the latter. Nonetheless, it's a spiritual place few go, and even fewer can handle going. That said, I believe even fewer than that should or are ever "supposed to" go there.

Now, all that said, I understand there to be different types of angels/demons. The ones I saw resemble shadows, and are semi-formless. I believe they may take various shapes, but may often be seen as something of a small shadow darting around the room/area you're in. There are other types and more to speak of, but this is not idle chatter. Usually I have to be sure a person is ready, lest doorways be opened in their life that ought not be or they confuse spiritual reality for stories, myths, and things we see in the media.

In response to your other questions, spiritual things are terrifying, whether good or evil. The more it happens, the more you 'get used to it', but it's almost always frightening. I have talked, but fortunately never carried a conversation with a Spiritual being other than Almighty God. I can't imagine speaking with a demon. Bad idea...

Like many people, I have seen one of these dark figures, often called shadow people.
I never saw an angel, I did see God appear to me but at that moment I knew I was hallucinating. About these shadow people, I don't know. The experience seemed very real to me. They say it's something your brain can do when you have sleep paralysis but there are convincing stories of people on the internet who have seen them simultaneously, and wide awake.
I did not talk to it. And I don't want to see one again.

I was helped by an Angel, never saw them though, it was in a car accident, the car crashed, caught on fire, I remember looking at the crack in the windshield. I got out and fell to the ground, and kept th inking "I hurt so bad I will not make it a 1/2 mile to the next house". I remember nothing after that about how I got there, but the next thing I do remember is walking up to the porch of that house. How I got there is not in my memory but everything else is clear. I actually think an Angel got me there.
As far as Demons, I have never seen one, but I have seen several people that I think Satan influences and they act on his behalf.

My mom saw an angel outside my bedroom door when I was little. I was maybe 3 years old at the time. :)

Never. But, I was prayed for like I was possessed when I was a child. (I was a spoiled brat) Nothing like spanking to calm a "demon" down.

I believe I encountered an angel in a dream that I had a few years ago.

I had a dream once after a night of intercessory prayer that I was in my house and people kept coming in and out my door putting and taking mail from this mailbox on the wall. After awhile, I questioned it, as I was about to tell them all to leave. A person walked into my house with a bible in her hand. She put her bible down on the coffee table and was quite to the point, she asked if I ever was prayed over, I said no. She asked if she could, I said yes. It was quite the experience. Don't know why or what was prayed over me. I couldn't hear any words, but I could see them as they were flowing from me. The words were in all sorts of color, but they were flowing so quickly that all I could make out was the words 'Jesus Christ' and 'God'. Then she suddenly was gone, but her bible was still left on the coffee table.Then I woke up.

I think she was an angel. I just have feeling.

Something that I don't really want get into detail about, but I had a dream few years back that in some way I was tricked and convinced to have sex with this one guy. I soon found out that he was a demon (his face wasn't human anymore) and I tried to get away. Took a few days to shake that dream off :(

I haven seen and heard them. I am actually struggling since 3 years and are being attacked heavily. I have left gods ways 4 years ago even though I have been warned to not do so and also after being warned to stay away from guys in the next few years, I was not listening and actually laughed at the prophecy. God thought me a hard lesson, he pretty much let happened what happened, here is my story.

I was meeting this guy on the internet it was an online game and here you can see how BLIND a human can get. We were at the same alliance called SIN (gosh, english is my second language but seriously I didn't see it coming?) In that game you own cities, guess what the cities of that guy were called Lechery, Gluttony, Greed, Envy, Pride, Sloth, Wrath etc. He seemed to know a lot of people and right now I would say they are working as a team. They stated they love mind games, still I didn't think I would have anything to fear. Anyway strange things happened after in my life. Right now I believe those people are Satanists, they are playing games and are involved in chats to catch their victims. They play with your life and if you let them they will win. I never even thought internet could be so dangerous.

My mind was being attacked and I started hearing voices, I could hear demons talking and I started getting crazy thoughts. How do you know that what you hear are demons? Well I was pretty much done and I assume they thought I would be either dying soon or being submitted to the hospital permanently. I was hearing things like: "and she is even a New Born", "she is not scared yet she should wait until Satan comes".
If you are down they will do everything to confuse you more, and believe me they know the bible quite well. Probably better than most of us. Do you hear me? Why do you think the bible speaks about putting on the armor of god? Ephesians 6:11

Once I heard the demon directly talking to me when I was reading the bible when I was down trying to get strength from god:"Hahaha, See this is your fault that you are always reading the bible so fast, you should have slowed down earlier, now it's to late" They try to FEAR you, this is where they get strong when you fear them and they enjoy their power at this point so much.

Basically what it comes down to is that if demons directly talk to you than only with the goal to confuse you, destroy your believes, make you questioning gods presents and his protection. They do become very quietly though when you start praying, I don't know what it is but I assume they can't listen to your prayers and are concentrated reading your face or trying to find out what you are praying. Matthew 26:41 / Luke 18:1 Praying is so so so so important!!!!

Another event, I don't know if it was Satan's voice or a demon that was commanding but I also could hear how they work in the dark world, there was one voice who was giving commands like "remind her on that event", "tell her to turn on the TV" stuff like that. The voice sounded very, very, very throaty as it would speak all day, and in fact he was constantly giving commands.

I couldn't find peace in my apartment so I took my car to drive out of town to a quite place, no people, no houses, no electricity. I stopped close to a lake where I could see the water. I was very exhausted, haven't been able to sleep since at least a week because of those voices and my thoughts were raising. All the sudden I could hear something on my roof like as there was something on there the whole time and the dent was coming loose, I was still sitting in my car, and I could see something like a badger running towards the water jumping into the water and swimming in it calling me: "Come to the water and we will be united for forever."

Just recently I asked Jesus to forgive me for my sins and started going back to church. The pastor is a powerful preacher and I could hear again the voice demanding me while I was sitting in church during a service:"GO OUT". The pastor was also mentioning the name Elias and was talking about how he will return to earth before Jesus will come back, something inside me were shaking and I could feel it heavily in my head and afterwards I could hear a different voice saying: "Because he reminded me of Elias, and, He is gooood" (probably the pastor)...yes I do believe the demon is still inside me but I also believe that Jesus will win this fight!

But I learned it doesn't matter what demons do, don't try to find out weather they exist or not it's a waste of your energy in fact they don't deserve so much attention anyway. I feel bad even mentioning them here. We should rather praise God and Jesus and tell each other about his mercy and how he is helping us in our life. Just a short note, did you notice how the whole movie world (Hollywood) goes towards spiritual things, over-natural powers etc...be careful what you are watching. In fact, shortly after I was playing that stupid game I was watching the movie RING and it was as I was hearing an inner voice the whole time telling me "don't watch it, don't watch it. Guess what I did and I watched all of it the full series, right after that I started hearing voices.

My mind was occupied trying to find out if I am crazy or not and all I did was thinking about what I have heard and seen, but guess who was left out in my thoughts more and more, its was God and Jesus. The more I was thinking about the demons the deeper my pain, struggle and craziness.

Jesus is my Lord, and I will put all my energy towards him, if a demon was shaking so hardly only because of the name of Elias how much more will he be afraid of Jesus our Lord and Savour and our Heavenly Father. Amen 1 Corinthians 14:15

Yes I have seen both on many many occasions. Do I ever speak to them? No, certainly not the angels but the demons I usually command them to be bound and gagged or to vacate a person or premisses cos they aint staying in my company. We are born into a spiritual war that has been raging for thousands of years....there is ALOT going on behind the scenes in the spiritual realms. I would encourage young folks to get discipled properly.......hang around with people that know about spiritual warfare and will teach you hands on the authority we have in Christ. This is not an area to be afraid of...PERFECT love casts out fear.......but it is an area to be very wise in so you know what your doing.

I cannot confirm I have SEEN either but I may have had. When I was kid I remember I woke up once for unpleasant feeling. Inside the room with me and my brother there were black figure. like Man wearing pitch black cape and I felt cold and afraid it would notice I am there and see it.

Another case I nearly got accident with sledge while riding downhill and the sledge suddently stopped. I thought I will have hard landing so I covered my head with arms and suddently felt landing to somewhere soft. Well not soft but invisible (to my eyes) angel had catched me midair and hold me middle of the road one arm under my chest, another under my knees and when I opened my eyes again and realising my condition it carefully dropped me to my belly.

The 3rd time... well I didn't saw it I wasn't even near but I text messaged with one angel. My gf was hurt really bad and the angel took her mobile phone and pretended to be passing by man with dog. He gave her first aid and kept me informed of her condition all the way to the hospital and finally when my gf was back consious gave her back the phone.
