This is getting more common... | ||

I will address this later today... I have been off the board on the most part the past few weeks due to an illness... sorry. But this is important and needs
to be addressed.
You do need to know however that this is getting much more common in American Churches in the last days. I hear this all the time and have seen it myself. Later... James

This has become so common | ||

that they are writing books on "shadow people" these days and there are mystery websites that have
sections dedicated to the topic.
The thing is... churches have always been attacked by the enemy looking for weak places to get at to try and hinder the service. Carnal people give demons an opening to attack and manipulate. But until recent years, unless a church had something seriously demonically wrong with it... or was under a great attack... you normally did not often see these living shadows which are really demon spirit manifesting visually with the naked eye very often. If you have the gift of discernment of spirits, many times God would allow you to see them or know that they were present. But in these last days, there are some things changing and the dynamics of our warfare has changed with it. See, first of all, there has been a real revival in the third world. People who were demonized in other religions have been set free by the power of God and have been born again radically. I mean, there is a mighty move of God in the world right now. Those demons who are being evicted from their "homes" are now looking or searching for new homes to inhabit or possess. Many have come here in a land where so much gospel has been preached and people care so little about Jesus that the name of Jesus has become a cuss word for most... or just another religion on the same level as any other. See, very little of the USA is seeing a real move of God (here and there), but those demons have had little resistance here... so they have become bold and much more numerous than they were say... 20 years ago. In fact, since the mid-1990's, much of the world is seeing a new awakening especially amongst Muslims and Hindus become Christians (6 million Muslims are converting to Christianity every year and they are having visions of Jesus that God is giving to them... miracles in the 3rd world). But the American Church has slipped into compromise and many are falling into the falling away or apostasy. They use the name of Jesus, but preach another Jesus. The thing to remember that any church that is a threat to the enemy and preaches the gospel and Jesus Christ will be attacked. The difference in these last days is that the enemy has become bold. What used to take discernment of spirits to see is now seen with the naked eye. Many times people will see spirit beings (both the holy and unholy demonic kind) in their peripheral vision, but when they look directly at them they disappear. This is very common. But as of late, demons are not always cloaking their presence. I don't know if God is just allowing them to be seen easier by His people, or if it is just that the enemy is getting more sloppy and not as worried about keeping their activities secret. The secrecy gave them an advantage that hey might feel that they don't need in this generation. There is the idea also that just the sheer amount of spiritual activity around us is harder to keep cloaked. PRAY... call on the Lord God to send angelic reinforcement to your worship service. Bind the unclean spirits in the name of Jesus Christ. You don't have to make a big deal outwardly to others doing this... you can do it quietly with faith and power in the name of Jesus Christ and see God do it. In the past few years... in churches where God started to really move... I have personally seen more visitations to these revivals by witches trying to cause trouble. They invoke demons... but you can (if you have discernment to know that they are there) very quietly and effectively bind those spirits of witchcraft in Jesus name and cast them out while you are calling on the Lord to send angelic reinforcements. It works! PRAY and ask God why this spirit was there. Is it an attack on the worship service and the church? Is it an attack against a particular person or couple there? God can give you understanding... but remember, according to Ephesians 6 and 1 Peter 5, we are called to resist the devil stedfastly in the faith. James

If God is moving there, then you have probably been allowed by God to see the enemy manifesting there trying to mess things up... when that happens, resist it
in the name of Jesus Christ!
There is probably an amount of warfare going on there that is radical enough to see things occurring... would not be surprised if you have spiritual battles with angels and demons going on there over services... will happen when lives are being touched with the gospel. James
