That last line and recommendation were great. "If you move into a new house, dorm, or apartment, pray. Pray and invite the spirit of God. Because you dont know what's there. You never know if the previous owners were into witchcraft, demonism, or drugs. Just because the people moved out doesn't mean the spirits did too."

But as believers in the world with the Holy Spirit aren’t we still protected against whatever evil spirits may be lingering around aren’t we still protected like Daniel in the lions den.?

Thank you for sharing Pastor Mark! I was also curious if I had seen an angel in human form and so I prayed about it and God showed me that I did! On my 16th birthday I went into Barnes n' Noble but it was filled with people because some musicians were there. I found a book to read, but there was no table that was free. I looked down one aisle and an older man waved to me to sit at his table, so I sat down at his table. Which was strange for me to have accepted it because I was very shy back then! He introduced himself and said that he was a golfer and was even on the front cover of a golf magazine. I really don't remember what we talked about after that, BUT I do remember that that Birthday was one of my favorites because I left Barnes N' Noble that day feeling so uplifted and encouraged (like in a way that I have never felt before). I remember his eyes too, they had a sparkle to them. So now I refer to him as the famous golfer angel lol! What a sweet Birthday present!

My name is Jeremiah, lately I’ve been feeling very weak on my journey I’ve been falling to lust and wedsites through my journey here and there I’m in real need of a prayer i don’t know if it’s a demon attacking me or not But I feel like Im close to losing my salvation please if someone can pray for me right now PLEASE🙏🏾

[@samuelbruce8927]

I dont believe you can lose your salvation, think if we could we would loose it every moment were awake due to our fallen nature. I pray that your struggles enrich your knowledge of love mercy and grace that God has for you to bring you back to repentance! Everyone struggles in their flesh but the book of John says that He that is in me is greater than he thats in the world and another place in John it says that its your heart that condemns you, I The Lord condemn you not.

Demons walk around in human form.

7:01 Gods manifest presence shows up.. not sounding too calvinist here

[@Footy-shorts]

I had a dream where I was casting a demon out of xbox , I thought it was trying to confuse my words because I hardly got out what I wanted to say. Before that dream my xbox turned on by itself without me doing anything.

[@HEAVYDIAPER]

The update finished the restart.

[@jeanneswallace]

I have seen demons appear and disappear in front of my eyes then immediately dissapear.

[@josehumbertogarciagalvan3465]

Based on the Bible, there’s not much evidence of demons possessing inanimate objects (being honest there’s not a single demon possessing an inanimate object), when a demon possesses a person, it always has the purpose of destroying the person’s life (Mark 9:14-29), and the only cases of demon possession in the Bible is in humans and animals (Matthew 8: 28-34), yet we do have some example of people showing some reverence to inanimate objects because it supposedly had some sort of power, we can find such cases just by reading the Old Testament where there are many examples of people praising objects because of its “power”, so in conclusion; when you go to visit those haunted places or go to see those possessed objects they always tell you “you need to respect the “doll or thing” and have reverence” my question is, are we indirectly worshiping those objects even tho we don’t know if demons can actually possess inanimate objects? And if there’s no demons inside of the object we still fall into the fact of praising an object… why do we say an image of Mary or sculpture has no power, yet we still believe a random doll does have? Isn’t that falling into worshipping fake idols as well?

[@WaggyTales]

Jesus didn’t show up with angels to save Lot, he wasn’t born.. Let’s correct our Theology Pastor…

[@franifiable]

Can demons be “people” you know? So not possess people you know but be the people?

[@MikeCheckBiloxi]

No, angels aren't human

[@franifiable]

@@MikeCheckBiloxi don’t mean angels are human. I mean can demons take human form?

[@alexizumi]

Yes, he told that angels appears as human sometimes.

[@bufficliff8978]

Not practically, no. It's far more likely you know an evil person. Angels take human form for short time periods for specific purposes. Satan has taken human form, but again, only for short times and for specific purpose. It's much more likely that you know an evil person.

[@franifiable]

@@bufficliff8978 I’ve realized they are probably possessed and not evil as a soul. I’m saying possessed and not oppressed as they are not Christian. I do believe the Lord can save him. I have seen something in his eyes change time to time. But rarely but I have. He behaves like a moral person but there are undertones that I don’t think the world would pick up easily. He is currently agnostic and has a spirit that is deaf and dumb to hearing the word of God. Please pray for Salvation for Mr K Scalzini

[@culcheth53]

You did not show scripture if evil spirits dwell in inanimate objects to lifeless stones rock or trees or dolls. No scripture to explain.

[@cconnon1912]

Demons aren’t a thing. Only insecurities within yourself.

Praying for you Jeremiah... One of my very favorite verses in the whole Bible is Jeremiah 17:9......remember that verse...God sees you...and loves you.

[@LordNuDTru]

but your not out chasing down prostitutes or at the strip club or raping anyone nor fornicating or practicing adultery....give yourself some credit here...but continue growing despite these self righteous ungodly hypocrites who think they are saintly...growth is a process, continue in your quest to break free from the flesh...its a painful process...but one you can fulfill.
