EnuguJOBHUNT:Self deliverance is ok. I recommend a 3 or 7 days fasting and prayers. You can cast those demons out by the power of the Holy spirit who dwells in you. By all means avoid anything that lights up the lustful flame in you, i.e, pornographic movies or mags, sexually explicit movies etc. Continually feed your spirit with the word of God. It's not going to be easy, but you can do it. Masturbation, lustful thinking opens up a spirit portal for demons to have access to oppress you. The lord is your strenght. God bless you my broda! 1 Like |

@EnuguJOBHUNT. Yes you are born again. But, you need a deliverance session. To free you completely from those demons who have attached themselves to you, as a result of the act of masturbation and other sexual sins relating to it.

analice107:My dear sis, if a person is not willing to accept God’s existence by faith, then he/she is definitely not ready to accept Jesus Christ as Savior by faith. The Bible teaches that God’s existence is clearly seen in the universe, in nature, and in our own hearts With all that said, the existence of God cannot be proven literally or scientifically; it must be accepted by faith. At the same time, it takes just as much faith to believe in atheism. To make the statement "God does not exist" is to make a claim of knowing absolutely everything there is to know about everything and of having been everywhere in the universe and having witnessed everything there is to be seen. Of course, no atheist would make these claims. Atheists cannot prove that God does not exist, for example, the solar system, their satellites and an immense number of minor plannets, comets and meteoroids. Since those places are beyond our capacity to observe, it cannot be proven that God does not exist. It takes just as much faith to be an atheist as it does to be a christian. Abraham lincoln ited when he was asked about the existence of God; he said, it is hard to believe in a God that you cannot see, but it is harder not to believe. So you see, the bible is correct when it says; The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God (Psalms 14:1 KJV). |

Michael820:Good question. Trying to know this things will help us to understand God better. It is a real predicament if people try to understand scriptures only literally. Let us examine what the scripture says. And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good (Genesis 1:31 KJV). From the beginning man knew what was good, he was in goodness. He was created wonderfully, with a fully functional brain, and the ability to make choices. Adam and eve already knew, interlectually the difference between good and evil. God said, i made you like me, to function like me Genesis 1:26. Speaking to an intelligent being, God said; Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat. Take everything, i give them to you. But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die (Genesis 2:16-17 KJV). The correlation between the knowledge of good and evil is the case study here. Man knew what was good already, the natural choice of something would be the knowledge of evil. If you eat this fruit you will know evil, it will take you outside the parameters which i designed for you. You will not only know evil, you will experience it. If you don't, you will know good continuously. The choice is yours to make. |

@Op. The bible says, God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth (Genesis 1:27-28 KJV). And then here God commanded the man saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: "But of the three of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die" (Genesis 2:16-17). God gave man everything, and wanted something back in return. Let me break this down. God put the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden to give Adam and Eve a choice to obey Him or disobey Him. Adam and Eve were free to do anything they wanted, except eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. If God had not given Adam and Eve the choice, they would have essentially been robots, simply doing what they were programmed to do. God created Adam and Eve to be free beings, able to make decisions, able to choose between good and evil. In order for Adam and Eve to truly be free, they had to have a choice. Hear this, the bible let us to know that God is omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent. With all this power, knowledge and versatility that God posseses. He cannot control you or alter your freewill. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil was a. symbol. God said, "if ye love me, keep my commandments" (John 14:15). That tree was the only way God could get love back from the man He loved and gave everything. 16 Likes 3 Shares |

@JMG1. The ministry of the holy spirit is one which we cannot fully comprehend. It is not mathematics, physics or chemistry. In the house of cornelius, the bible says, while peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with peter because that on the gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered peter, can anyone forbid water that these should not be baptized, which have recieved the Holy Ghost as well as we? (Acts 10:44-47 KJV). It should be pointed out that the depth of meaning and symbolism in the above age is extensive and far beyond any simplistic understanding that could be garnered from the a simple reading of the bible. And what do you mean by sanctification of the heart? Does it mean that we were not sanctified on the day we got born again? Therefore if any man be in christ, he is a new creature: old things are ed away; behold, all things are become new (2 corinthians 5:17 KJV). You cannot become more sanctified than the day you got born again. Regarding your question. An answer based on my own study of the bible. Please continue to study the scriptures to determine if you believe the same. One thing happens to every believer at the moment of salvation; we all recieve the Holy Spirit. Nowhere is it stated in the bible that every believer must speak in tongues. Speaking in tongues is a gift that has specific purpose, for a specific time. It was not and never has been the only evidence of recieving the Holy Spirit. God bless you!

@JMG1. A christian is not above deliverance. As a matter of fact, at some point in our lives, we all do. Scripture is clear that demons are real and that they interfere in human affairs. When an unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth non (Matthew 12:43 KJV) Demons were very much at work before, and there is no reason to assume that demons are inactive now. However, among those who do believe demons are at work today, there are a variety of perspectives. Some tend to over-emphasize the work of Satan, giving him more attention than he deserves. True, Our focus should be on the glory of God and His righteousness (Matthew 6:33), since we have the greater one in us. Satan and God are not "equal" or "balanced" opposites, in a yin-yang way. Satan is a created, finite being who possesses only the power God allows him to have. This does not mean we should be complacent and not engage in spiritual warfare against satan. There is no evidence to suggest that Satan and his fallen angels have ceased to torment human beings. However, James 1:13-15 makes it clear that much of our struggle against sin is due to our own fleshly desires, not a direct attack from Satan. The Greek word daimonizomai, often translated "demon- possessed" in the Gospels, simply means "demonized." The word refers to more than just possession. Anyone under the influence of a demon could be considered "demonized." Even a Christian can be "demonized" or suffer demonic oppression if he allows his thoughts, actions, or attitudes to be influenced by demons. Even Peter, one of the Lord's closest friends, allowed himself to be a mouthpiece for Satan when he tried to talk Jesus out of going to the cross. Although a Christian has been purchased by the blood of Jesus, Satan can still wreak a great deal of havoc if allowed. He cannot steal the soul of a Christian or possess him, but he can render him fruitless and rob his life of joy and victory. Ephesians 6:10-17 instructs us to continually put on the full armor of God and stand firm. God's armor allows His children to be victorious against the devils attacks. Often, in situations when demonic oppression in a believer's life is overwhelming, it is due to that believer's sinful choices. we are told to resist the devil (James4:7), be careful of him, and not give him room in our lives. And we should to never rely on our own wit or authority to rebuke satan. The best defense against demonic attack is the Word of God. Christians are in a spiritual battle, and we need to be aware of the spiritual realities around us. Of which this thread has really helped. But our focus should not be on the demons; our eyes are to be fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith ( Hebrews 12:2). That’s where the victory is. |

MizyB:It's not going to be easy. But, you got to tell him sis. God is with you all the way. Don't be afraid. Because my friend found christ, he is a source of joy to his family. God so blessed him in everything. Today he is bold enough to tell his father; i pray God that not only you but all who are listening to me today may become what I am, except for these chains (Acts 26:29). One day, i paid my friend a visit. I saw him and his father studying the scriptures together. My sister, i felt joy unspeakable when i saw them. Glory to God. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Brethren i great you all in the name of our lord and saviour Jesus christ. I have been in grief for months. Its been close to a year since my younger brother died, he was stabbed to death by some hoodlums on his way back to sch during the post election crisis that broke out in saminaka kaduna state last year. A final year student at the ahmadu bello university zaria. He stood about 6 feet and 2 inches tall, he was strong and healthy, he died just like that. I cried like a baby when i got the news of his death. Before long, people started dying around me (my loved ones). Amid all this, on the third week of january i had a very deep dream. In this dream, i saw myself standing in a place that looks like a cross-roads. Suddenly i saw an angel flew swiftly and stood in front, a part of the road that seem like an entrance into a particular place. This angel was clothed in white linen, around him was as though a powerful wind was blowing, i looked properly and saw that he had wings of which i thought was the wind. I saw people coming in queue from one side of the road. And a man who was the first to arrive, walked toward the angel and stood in front of him. A conversation ensued between the angel and the man, it was about all the man had done when he was alive. From what i heard, the man was cruel, he refused to repent and surrender his to jesus christ when he had the chance. Immediatly this angel finished talking, a dark spirit came swiftly and started to drag this man away. In fear, the man cried and pleaded for mercy, this angel stood right there emotionless with a sort of indifference in his countenance. So i thought in my heart, why would this angel allow this man to be taken away just like that. What this angel said to me still echo in my mind, even as type this. He said; without holiness no one will come into the kingdom of heaven. Immediatly i was shown a different scene, were i saw people who are clothed in white linen, this people were singing and rejoicing, so i enquired; who are this people? I heard a voice say, this are they which have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the lamb. After all this, i woke up.

God is not a democrat. He dropped a whole generation which died in the wilderness of doubt and stood with only two men: Joshua and Caleb! This is how serious God takes unbelief. Before Joseph died in Egypt he took an oath from his children that they take his “bones in a coffin” on the day of departure for the Promised Land. (Gen 50:22-26). Joseph didn’t want to be a mummy in Egypt with a private pyramid. He wanted to be present when God opened the Red Sea. They took his bones when they left Egypt. The bones didn’t rattle in the coffin, they must have laughed and rejoiced… There was more life in Joseph’s bones then in those who carried them. The bones arrived, but not the bearers. Joseph blew the first trumpet of faith for the return of Israel into the Promised Land! He blew it with those not yet born, but who would blow the trumpets to bring down the walls of Jericho. Joseph had died at age 110. A man of faith at 110 is younger than a critical teenager! Want to Joseph’s battalion? Please let me know. REINHARD BONNKE 4 Likes 1 Share |
