Witchcraft and demon possession
 
My cousin's daughter got into witchcraft... and the end result, she has some devils in her.

Not surprising, had a young lady from church playing with an ouija board had a demon follow her for weeks. Whole thing ended in a dynamic confrontation, demon lost.

Girl was at church. People began to pray for her. She screamed "DON'T PRAY FOR ME! DON'T PRAY FOR ME!"

She left with her demons, apparently.

Just prayed for the girl. Don't give up! You need not be in visual contact to make a difference in this spiritual warfare. The name of Jesus knows no distance.

This girl needs prayer, and I hope that she will tire of these spirits. However, if she desires their presence, then they will be retained. However, we must pray that she soon sees the error of her way and finds a place of repentance and deliverance. This is her only hope.

Um, pretty sure Scripture will tell you to not even pray for this person--a willful seeker of demons? God will not hear your prayers here, mmmkay? She has already asked not to be prayed for.

Everyone here has my permission to pray that I will see the error of my ways. And I will report on those prayers' effectiveness. :thumbsup

Ha amen, me too. Although one might think that a prayer for someone not in our position might be in God's will, I'm not sure this is true at all; what Jay suggests strikes me as pearls before swine. But I might be misreading, also.

Houstons scenario was humorous to me, but did not represent what happened. A few details, a young lady was delivered from the consequences of her mistake and it was nothing short of supernatural . I wont elaborate any further in an effort to keep from giving the skeptics and the critics fodder to pick apart.

Jay 09-17-2012 06:45 PM

Re: Witchcraft and demon possession
 
Bb and Timothy, there has been nothing said yet that she has reached the point of no return. She willfuly chose this path, but unless God declares otherwise, there is yet an altar for her to repent and make her heart right.

lol too funny! The little bit of details I have shared are accurate. Let me add this young lady wanted deliverance and she got it with a short authoratative prayer. Same can happen for the girl mentioned in the first post. Every healing, deliverence and receiving of the Spirit I ever seen were wanted.

Oh, for HER to repent, definitely. Would Christ pray for her repentance, though? Seems a violation of her free will. Of course, one may pray for her all they like, but the Q is, will God hear this prayer?

And Houston, I don't mean that she
is done for, but that she just is not in a position
to be prayed for right now.

Yes. Lol. I think it's funny that some people tread softly around you. I like you, Tim. But IMO, there is no return from going atheist.

Then there's the others who want to quote the Bible to you. They may as well quote Hansel and Gretel. They are both just storybooks to an atheist.

Agnostic. But point taken, anyway. :lol (Though, come to think of it, I know of ex-atheists. One is a missionary now.)

Don't know.

So, once a Christian, you can't stray or you're gone for good? OBAB? Once Backslidden Always Backslidden? Hebrews 6:4?

Timmy. We are not talking about backsliding. O-bab! Lol. Sounds funny.

Heb 6:4 is not about backsliding.

Heb 6:4 is not about backsliding.


4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,

5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,

6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
What is it about, then?

The writer of Hebrews was addressing something more specific. Jews were under pressure to return to the O.T. system of animal sacrifices. Those that did made Calvary a common thing and Christ's sacrifice not enough to remove their sin. There was no return for them, no sacrifice for their sins.
