I usually do not get these dreams every night. Some feel from satan himself and some feel like warnings from the Lord.
Lynn, you wrote:I know the Holy Spirit came to reside in me when I was first born again, but subsequent sin and incomplete repentance for 27 years after that left me wide open to all kinds of demonic infestation. I believe the Holy Spirit was always in control, but the demons can be there too. The "attacks" stopped physically only after I was baptized in the Holy Spirit in 2009. The scary dreams only stopped a few months ago by searching myself for any unforgiveness, unrepentance, praying to sever any generational curses in my family (I was aware of some), praying to sever the curse put on me, and praying daily affirmations of faith and renunciations for a week or two. The enemy FLED. Every time I prayed these prayers, my faith was strengthened more and more, and the Lord helped me to start to believe the words I was saying, especially the power I have over the enemy because of my position in Jesus Christ. There was nothing "magical" about the actual words or prayers by the way. It's just specific kinds of prayers in faith that are specific to this problem. Sometimes the demonic persists because they are not challenged to leave, even if they no longer have a legal "right" to be there.------------------It has been a long time since I have been under attack in the same way you described your attacks. I was under a lot of oppression and after deep soul searching coupled w/confession & repentance, I sprinkled the Cleansing Blood of Jesus on me, and renounced sin & rebuked the spirits oppressing me. The yoke lifted but then came the dreams..or the evil presence. Every time I felt the evil presence in my room, I would simply say “Lord Jesus, Sprinkle Your Blood in this room & on me.” The evil presence would leave immediately! But one night, while in a deep sleep, a huge demon had walked in & put his ugly, filthy hands around my throat, making it very hard for me to move. (Yes Lynn...the world will call it sleep paralysis). I could not speak but w/my heart & mind, I began to say “Jesus.” “Jesus. Lord Jesus.” The hands began to release it’s grip on me. At this point I began to open my mouth and say “JESUS!” That ugly monster (which I never saw with my physical eyes for I would not open them) began to step away from my bedside. As it moved away, I began to speak louder and louder the Name above ALL NAMES—JESUS !! JESUS !! JESUS!!! I could not stop shouting His Name for several minutes.That thing terrified me for it was right next to me trying to choke me! That was the last time (thankfully) any demon has entered my bedroom/my house. That was about 5 years ago.I am a strong believer & speaker of the Name of Jesus and know without a doubt the Power of the Blood of Jesus.May the Lord Jesus sanctify us all, protecting us, Holding us dear & near to HIM as we await His imminent Return...may it truly be this month !Carol Garza
