This is a very interesting thread- We must be covered so that these demons will not enter another person.
I have seen someone be "purged" as well, and to see them coughing up this black stuff the 1st time was very shocking. Purging is very real.
I've never seen it happen in church but only at home prayer meetings/bible studies which tended to be more intimate/intense and everybody's usually on the same accord.
After that I began to understand spirits better and understood why saints were so protective over the children in the room when praying spirits out cuz it was said that the spirits would leave the afflicted and enter the kids if not careful.
I'm still extremely funny about who touches me especially in church. I belong to a large church and there are several ministers who I won't allow to lay hands on me.
yep thats why we are suppose to keep our eyes shut in prayer and when someone is getting prayed for we need to pay tooThis is a very interesting thread- We must be covered so that these demons will not enter another person.
I believe that if you have the holy spirit within you then no demons can enter that home. Didn't Jesus say that when a bad spirit leaves someone, it goes looking for another home? And if they can't find one it comes back to the place he left with 7 more demons (I believe stronger than himself). But if you have the holy spirit in your home then they can't come in.
I'm coming back to this....
There's something I need to say, but the Lord hasn't released me to say it yet. But it's coming.
Patiently waiting for you to come back.... ;-)
This thread being bumped up is very timely for me...

Hi Angels. I was at work when I first read this thread and I couldn't respond; the Lord wouldn't let me. He wanted me to be still and wait; to not react to this subject, which is indeed a 'spirit', a spirit of Distraction.Bumping again.
I would too love to hear from you Shimmie. Your posts give me such insight.
Think about what happens at many of the conferences, camp meetings, rallies, and all of a sudden someone acts up. Anyone who has ever experienced seeing a person under satan's control, think about how you felt afterwards. The message was missed; you are exhausted, you can't truly focus on anything else except what occurred and it's all that's being talked about. Major Distraction.

Whenever God has released something to us from Heaven, or when the presence of God is about to fall upon us under a heavy annointing, that when the distractions occur. Ever be in the flow in Praise and Worship, and all of a sudden you get interrupted by a tap on the shoulder or someone wants to move past you for the restroom, or whatever the reason, it's still a distraction and it takes you forever to 'get back' into the flow.

I don't doubt the sincerity of our precious OP who began this thread. Actually, I believe God lead her here to expose the devil for what he's really doing as he continues to attack the Body of Christ.
Do we continue to pray when we encounter 'spirits' such as this? By all means yes. But with the awareness that something more is going on behind it and to put a halt to satan's behind the scenes, and distractive endeavors with those prayers.
Nehemiah as he rebuilt the wall, always had a tool in one hand and a weapon in the other. He was well 'aware' of the underlying enemy below and behind the scenes schemes.
I love this......my 'boy' the Prophet Elijah

[/FONT][SIZE=-1]Angels... this is the whole key and the measure right here. God is not in the brashing / thrashing, the screams and the vomits. While all of is going on, satan is using it to distract us from the most powerful of all weapons that we have as Christians...... "God's Voice", that still small voice, that we are missing while satan is loudly hissing. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]Beware when we see demonstrations of such, for it's only a distraction from hearing what God is trying to say to us. [/SIZE]

This is a awesome thread. Shimmie, you were on point about the distractions, especially during praise and worship. I'll elaborate on some things later...
Love and God Bless,

Been there....... I look at a lot of reasons why things happen in Church. Have you ever noticed that this doesn't occur in 'quiet' Churches and yes, I'm speaking of many (not all) but most White Churches.This happens sometimes in church. It is usually old people. Sometimes I want to turn around and say would you shut up!!!! You are quiching the spirit. Bu that would not be Christ-like.
Thank you for this.
You've said it all right there. "...Not getting caught up in the awe and the excitement or storytelling."I enjoyed going through this thread especially shimmie's comments. I have seen and heard of many events and I always wondered what the "POINT" was. Like how were lives changed or was it business as usual afterwards.
I have been in intecessory prayer and have felt VERY troubled when led to pray for a woman who was experiencing demon opression/possession (unsure of which). I always want to know more about the subject but dont want to get caught up in the awe and excitement or storytelling...
Mitcy, I'm so glad that you're okay. Gee whiz, food poisoning is serious. I'm so sorry that the woman in kfc gave you such a hard time; I don't think that she put something put into your food, so much as the food itsself was simply not up to standard with food safety.i can truly understand the distraction that shimmie spoke of. last sunday i was in church and toward the end of the sermon i got this overwhelming feeling of dizziness,sweating,gasey (sp) sensation and black out feeling. the sermon was ok but i had to keep praying to God open my heart so i can hear the message. i was kinda sleepy since the night before i had just gotten back at 11 30 from famu. i had to drop off my son and i drove back to miami.
anyways the ladies lead me to the bathroom and i laid on the floor they insisted on calling the fire rescue but i didnt want them to, finally i relented because they said for official reasons to protect the church they had to call. right after that i got up to move my bowel and i felt much better until i got up but i waited a minute or so because i felt dizzy when i stood up. the fire rescue came and took my vitals and said everything was normal and i felt better and i told them i didnt want to the hospital because i felt better.
i got home and told my brother and he told me it was food poisoning. i thought back from the day before and i remember the cashier at kfc was really giving me a hard time. when she finally gave me my food after a long wait i said to myself i hope she doesnt put anything in my food. sure enough that was the culprit because i didnt eat that morning. i only had juice.
so if i would have never got sick i could have heard a message but because of that episode i lost out.
so big ups to shimmie for breaking it down once again
Primarily to keep 'order' in the ministry. Pastors are accountable for the responsibilities which he delegates to his members. There are guidelines that must be followed and carried about within the Church that he heads.Question: Why are people being delivered in the sanctuary and not in private? I'm on a deliverance team and we've never done it in public. Maybe i'm missing something but is that "normal" for deliverance ministry?
