demons, evil spirits, and hardships

<< < (3/4) > >>

Roy Coates:
Thanks Judy, it is still a melting pot of issues. I will survive

Roy Martin:
Hi Roy,
You've received some good advice. I'm not sure I can add much more, but your a brother in need of all we can give you.
I use to fight and rebuke those spirits in every way possible as I was acknowledging their presence rather than God doing a work in me through them. Well it just never did work even once that I'm aware of. It was when I started acknowledging God, and thanking Him for doing a work in me through the trials that brought light to the darkness of fear, confusion, worry and stress. This is how God gave me faith, and strength as these things will continue to happen in our lives; some worse than others, and some less, but its God that we thank for what He is accomplishing by subjecting us to vanity. Consider it all good as hard as that might seem, it is possible with God.
Keep in your mind and heart that where ever Satan is; God is also there.Stay focused on God, and not Satan.

Peace
Roy M

--- Quote from: Roy Coates on May 20, 2010, 01:06:24 AM ---I am having some very difficult times. I am not sure if it is demons, evil spirits or God perfecting me through tribulations. I am not sure if I can know. If I come against evil that God has sent to me for perfecting me then I am opposing what God has ordered for me. Demons would have to identify themselves to me correct? Are evil spirits the same as demons?

Pray with me that God's will be done in my life, family, home, work and school. Satan has no power over me or my life(unless God authorises it) My family needs physical, emotional and financial healing. In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen

--- End quote ---

It's possibly a mixture of all... I think I speak for all when I say that I understand what you are going through [maybe not 'specifically', but 'generally' as far as tribulations go...] and do empathize with you, and will keep you in my prayers.

 I don't think demons would necessarily have to 'identify themselves', but they are everywhere, and so are angels [which also can be good or bad--Ps 78:49, etc]. Who knows how many of them there are? Jesus was able to identify Satan when he spoke through Peter. I believe through His Spirit we can too.

Our God is not a God of confusion and torment. Always draw closer to God when these things happen. If he created evil then He is responsible to see you through. Sometimes you never find out the reason. just do the best you can. judy

Roy Coates:
Spent the day in the garage and rockin/working. My singing and dancing to the Lord and some manual labor helped a lot. Everybody's posts have been a heart warming comfort to me. Thanks very much. Peace
