I know this sounds like a morbid thread and I don't mean to bring in controversy but I know the Bible does speak of demons possessing folks and getting cast out on several occassions.
I haven't told this to very many people because the FEW people I did share this with looked at me like an alien but I wanted to recall this experience with you all.
About 9 years ago...I had an experience where we had a young lady at our church was very angry and backbiting and just well...mean. She would have her nice sweet moments but you could tell there was something plaguing her...bringing her down.
We all decided (recalling this to the best of my recollection) to do a 24 hour prayer chain - not because of her but because we were led to do so at the time. It was actually organized by someone I didn't know well - Tonia Price but it was a great experience.
I believe there were 10 or so of us and we took turns praying without ceasing for 24 hours. We had written a list of things to pray for for the country, the world, individuals, ourselves and anything that we felt led by the Spirit to pray for.
I cannot remember the length of the "shifts" we took praying but someone was praying for the entire 24 hours.
The next Sunday (I want to say it was Sunday but it may have been a Wednesday bible study) there were maybe 4 of us in the sanctuary talking or chatting after service.
The angry girl showed up and she asked us to pray for her.
So we got in a circle and put her in the middle of the circle and we began to pray.
I prayed with my eyes closed and someone else led for what seemed like 15 minutes. Then the angry girl in the middle - her name is on the tip of my tongue but I cannot recall it right now....she began to scream and violently throw herself around the room and then she vomitted A LOT of black stuff onto the floor. It was liquid black stuff and it was thick. She didn't smoke so I had no idea what that could be. I mean there was a lot of it. She seemed to be fighting our praying but the leader just prayed louder and ya'll - I was scared. I was only 20 or so at the time and I thought what on earth is going on!
We continued to pray for her and then she fell out and someone got the girl some water and after a few minutes she came to.
After that day, she was a totally different person.
We always felt I think that we had experienced a demon leaving her but I don't think any of us ever voiced it out loud. It was a very humbling experience for us who was so young.
I recall this because I was looking at my Bible recently and one of the things I remember is that Tonia Price (one of our prayer partners) way back then bought me this bible. She didn't know me well but she ordered it for me because I adored her concordance and the ease of finding things in it. She paid 100+ for me to have one from a CBD catalogue - I think it was called Christian Book Distributors. I have kept it as my main book ever since and it even has my named on the front cover in leather and on the leather case she bought to go with it.
I always wonder if I'm the only person that has ever experienced something like this and if maybe what I saw was a demon or if it was something else.
That is the only time in my life I have ever witnessed anything like that.
Thoughts?
