Dear Daisy, we strategize but they strategize harder. They are always at work the only reason we sleep well is because our God keeps watch on us. the Bible says he gives us sleep. in this part of Africa, the sub Saharan, we have the "ember months" Every one know this period is a time for witches, wizards, occults to drink blood. During this period there are a lot of accidents taking place, sacrifices and many evil. so Christians pray a lot for these months so they just changed the ember months became quieter and as soon as January starts they hit and hard and they are generally dispersing their activities through out the year.
Pray in to the Future. Pray for sound sleep for the night even from the morning prayer. Pray for the next 5 or 10years, pray for children and husband and wives even if they are there already or still to come. speak to God in whispers, in tears, lying down, standing, walking, driving, all the time.

I think some things happen in the church to distract us from the things God wants us to do. Even now we are being distracted from what matters most.
If you wonder why everything seem to be cooling off in our spiritual lives, remember Christ is still the same yesterday, today, & forever.
God isn't changing: WE ARE.

So now its a testimony. If a person has a continued and ongoing demonic presence in their house or room or whatever, there is a problem that is not being dealt with. You don't know who you are talking to or how much I or anyone really, know or don't know but you have decided that you are in the place to be rude and demand answers so you can check qualifications.
Bragging is not a good habit and you appear to believe you have some authority to do so. I wonder how high you would jump if someone came up behind you and said boo.

No, God has not changed and everything He has made available to us is still available but we have to make the effort to avail ourselves of it. It seems half the people in this forum do not believe that the Holy Spirit still is the third person of the Trinity. They have relegated Him to the pages of the Bible; another time/another place/ anyone but us and not now.
The Bible speaks of a form of godliness without the power.
having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! II Tim. 3:5

Ocean, you seem to be a very contentious person. You know there's a reason our Lord called us gentiles dogs-many of us fight like dog's.
Okay let's say we disregard all the testimonies of all the Christians worldwide and we are left with a few that never have to struggle with the devil or the bogeyman as you say. Do these people live alone or wander the desert like Jesus?

I was never rude to you and the reason I wanted an answer to the question was not to judge or anything and clearly you do not know me very well if you think think this the reason I wanted an answer to the question that you still refuse to answer was to show that if we stand in his authority we overcome evil because if he is for us who can be against us right?
The only oen being rude here is you and also if someone is struggling with actual spiritual warfare and they do not trample against the demons they are dealing with then we need to encourage and help them to learn to stand in his authority.
many read our posts whether a user or a guest and many struggle with spiritual warfare so every word we speak can either encourage and strenghten them or not I have no issue discussing these things as long as it will help someone else but your insults and your clear distain towards me is of no benifet to anyone so I am not going to engage you in it.
Remember the fruits of the spirit.

I will always contend with those who misrepresent scripture and twist it or add to it. I have struggled plenty and overcome. It would be wise if people who do not know others kept their judgemental comments to themself.
If you still see yourself as a dog, I would suggest a good study of who we are in Christ.
ps: Jesus did not wander in the desert. He made Himself very visible.
I do not owe you or the other person any explanation of who I am or what I do or have done. I don't really know you or Blain and I do not believe in his demonic exploits as I am sure many others who know the subject don't either. It appears he will defend his stories forever though and I quite expect him to do so.
One thing lacking in this forum and certainly this thread, is focusing on Jesus. Demons though? Oh yeah. Lets' talk about those and tell each scary stories. Not playing

It is YOU who badgered me with zero knowledge of me simply because I do not believe all your demon stories. That is my prerogative and I have offered no 'there there' to you as some do so that irks you.
The above is how you responded to me because I am critical and less that persuaded of your experiences.
Grow up. This is a forum and not your personal little space to demand anything of anyone.
You do you though and some will be in awe of all your stories. I pass on them so get over it. Done talking to you as the focus of a believer's life should not ever be demons or demon stories.
I really have no more patience for your nonsense Blain.

The Apostle actually says that is the mature Christian path,
"Everything else is worthless when compared with the infinite value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ and become one with him. I no longer count on my own righteousness through obeying the law; rather, I become righteous through faith in Christ.[c] For God’s way of making us right with himself depends on faith. Let all who are spiritually mature agree on these things. If you disagree on some point, I believe God will make it plain to you." (Philippians 3:8, 15).
In the full thought of those words of St. Paul, he says its spiritual maturity to "count all things lost but knowing Jesus."

Jesus casted out many demons and they even trembled before him begging for mercy, he is our example and so I am wondering if we who are in Christ should cast demons out the same way? and also as for Jesus being the focus yes this is true but I will say some are learning from this thread oh btw did you get the song I sent you?
