I have delt back and forth with every day life and sin of course and struggles with my boss and other things. I have really tried to stay on track and focus.. Let me tell you all something, I need urgent prayers, satan is here in my life and he is trying so hard to destroy me. I have seen this first hand today. A friend of mine told me today that he saw something in my house and that my face had turned different colors, that he could see it in my eyes. The enemy has come after me in the form of Jazryth, look it up on the internet...I started praying and praying this morning in my quiet time in the shower, once I started praying and rebuking this demon, I could actually hear the sqeeling coming from my living room. I have finally seen the truth and the enemy is so angry right now!! GOOD! Praise God, I have never cried after I prayed and when I was finished, I just looked up and I said thank you God, and tears came down my cheeks. I felt so good, I felt calm, I felt peaceful...When I was praying outloud and called out that name to rebuke it, my voicce had even changed for a split second. I got the chills and right then and there, I finally realized the truth, I have finally seen the lies that satan has told me all these years and years and years. I am no longer blind and I want to be that strong christian woman that God wants me to be, and to be assured that I am saved for sure!! I just had to share this with you all because this was something so huge in my life and my other friends would not understand this because they are not christians. I love them, but they are not christians and I just can not have that in my life... Now, I can take this and use it, I want God to show me exactly what he wants me doing here on this earth for the time that I am here. I want God to see that I want to obey him, and do right. I know satans tricks now and he has used me against myself, against others, he has used me against men, and it makes me sick...This old me is dead and GONE.... I know now that this battle will be even harder now that I am seen what I have seen today. satan knows that I do not want to let him win anymore, and God will finally have another VICTORY for me to share.... Lord, thank you so much for today...Even though this brought me great heartache, this is a step in the right direction. You have shown me and my friend what has truely been going on in my life and I didn't even know it. I now see who I was and that old me is gone for good!! This is the new me and I am here to serve you Lord....I love you and I am so grateful, I am so blessed, I am so lucky that you forgive me of my sins and you love me anyway... I PRAISE YOU LORD...... AMEN AMEN AMEN AMEN KC

Dear kc, my friend, Remember one thing: Satan has NO power over you that you don't give him. He is NOT magical. He is pathetic. Always remember that. He lost. He wants you to lose too. Rebuke him EVERY time. Never be afraid. ALWAYS call on Jesus. Love nan

Heavenly Father, I pray tonight specifically for Itlyn1kc. She has a guy friend claiming to see that she was demon-possessed. She believes she herself has exorcised this demon from her life this morning. She wants to live her life for You, and be assured she is assuredly saved. It sounds like she is going to drop all her non-Christian friendships. She's made it clear to liar that he's not going to claim any more victories in her life. She's claiming she's had great heartache- so it does sound that her non-Christian friends are soon to be no longer acknowledged as friends, just herself and this one guy. Father God, may she have peace with all these large decisions if they are good ones for her now, and may You lovingly show her another way if there's things she might want to reconsider, for she is ready to make some changes in her life. In Jesus' precious name, Amen

Thank you my friends...Thank you so much for your prayers... The enemy really is pathetic, but it really is amazing though..I didn't even know I was being deceived until today...I really didn't, how can anyone know when they don't know what they are trying to watch out for until it is pointed out. Now that this has come to light, I will be smarter and know what I am looking for. I will go right to Gods word to know if it is the truth or not. I am reading this book called, " The Lies Women are told and the Truth that Sets Them Free". If you have not read this book, you need to be reading it! It is powerful and tells you everything you need to know about the lies that satan will tell us as women, the things we think are true or not true about God, ourselves, about others. It is all from satan...It is a great great book! I know satan does not have power over me, but I didn't even know what was really going on in my life until someone else saw this in me and my patterns in what I do in my life. I can do nothing but thank my friend and thank God today for this. Satan has been lying to me, and trying to literally destroy my life and I didn't even know it until now. There was no way for me to ever know this ALL was from satan, I had no idea what I was looking for, what to watch out for, but someone else had my back and saw right through it..They saw satan and told me, kc, how could you have known, he kept it hidden from you, and you just thought this was the way you were. You won't know your being deceived, you won't know, you didn't know...Now, I can press forward and really make sure I am not deceived again, make clear decisions, think before I do something, use my head and be wise..I will not let the enemy do this to me again. I know he will be on me 7 times harder now, but the good thing is that I have God on my side and I will RUN RUN RUN RUN to him anytime the enemy is attacking again...... amen amen....i love you guys!! kc

Sometimes the only advantage satan has over us is our ignorance. Praise God, He says in His Word that His Spirit shines on our inmost parts; that He can see all, and brings all into the Light. Thank You Lord for helping kc recognize Your light shining on an area of her life. We ask You to protect her mind Lord, to help her grow, to help her test things with the Word and live by the Word. We ask in Jesus Name amen

KC, I'm curious how someone can actually see something in your house that's demonic and how can they see your face turn different colors and see (it?) in your eyes. Can you explain that or someone explain? Connie Lou

KC, I don't clam to know everything, but I strongly suggest checking what your friend has told you to see if it lines up with God's word. Also, suggest reading Eph 6. It tells us just what the armor of God is and why we need it. God bless. Father, I lift up KC to You. Help her to grow in Your truths. Help her from being decived. Keep her in Your word Lord. Bring christian friends into her life. Guide her every step. Work Your perfect will Lord. In Jesus precious name. Amen

Lord, please look down with mercy upon my friend, KC. Bless her and come to her aid at this time. I renounce Satan, and all of his empty promises in the name of Jesus Christ, Our Savior. I ask that you send forth your legions of angels and chase off the evil spirits of the devil that are attempting to destroy KC. Place a hedge of protection around her and prevent the enemy and his minions from afflicting her in her life. Lord God, please grant her peace and love and a sense of calm in her life so that she might concentrate more on doing your will in this world, and not be hampered by the evil one and his petty and deceiving ways. Show her your light of truth and guide her towards it so that she might cling to you and grow in her faith and trust in you so that she might serve you to the best of her abilities. Remove those who are a negative influence on her, and grant her fellowships with those who will encourage the good in her rather than tear her down. Most of all, God, show her that you care about her and remind her that she is a precious child of God, redeemed through the blood of Jesus Christ which was shed upon the cross of all of us. Lord, watch over all of your children and protect us from the snares of the devil as we continue on our journey with you. In all things, you hear our prayers and consider our will, but in the end, may your perfect will be done. I pray all of this, with humility and confidence, in the name of Jesus Christ, Our Eternal Savior and Redeemer. Amen.

Thank you all for your prayers my family!! This is why I love you all...You are caring, loving and I just love your heartfelt prayers.. conrack, you asked how can anyone see something in my house?? Do you not believe that you can see demons or angels?? I have seen it before, there is no specific shape, but we can be oppressed (not possessed) by demons. Some people have that special gift to see them or a special gift of discernment. The person I know, is a leader in a church and she is the one who prayed for me that this be brought to light if something is holding me in bondage. I had been in bondage for several years before and went through deliverance to cast the enemy into the abyss and free me from bondage. Certain things like trauma, alcoholism, etc can create strong holds in our lives and we will be in bondage to them until we confess and pray that we do not give satan permission to be here anymore, then he must flee...This has been my problem, I have had to do this 2 times to know that I am not in bondage anymore to any sins I may have committed in my life. Sometimes after that the enemy can come back 7 times stronger and you have to make sure you do not commit the same sins again to open that doorway to bondage again....Hopefully this will make sense.. kc

I have not been on for a few days because I have been in church every night this week since Sunday. It has been truely truely amazing! We have this conference every year called The Ron Dunn Encourager Conference. Where all pastors and their wives come from all over to preach, and get to spend time with us and tell us what they are doing in their countries or cities where there are not many churches or not many saved people. It is so wonderful what they are doing and my pastor kept saying all week, "God is here!" You know what, HE WAS THERE IN THAT CHURCH. We were praying for each other, for others, everyone. It was so powerful these last 4 nights and I have come home in such a motivated, upbeat, ready to go attitude! I have felt Gods presence every night. I am joining the choir next week, and this month I am on the schedule to assist with the toddlers bible study...YAH!! I love the babies!! I really see that "God is able", that was tonights sermon. If you do not ask for it, you will not receive it. There are so many things that I have missed out on until now, and just have to do this right. I have to do right by God.... I just had to share my week with you, my family, God is really here and I have never felt so completely filled in my soul and now the void has been filled..... I praise you Lord...Thank you... amen kc

thank you for all your prayers!! I really really need prayers every day please. Things continue to go up and down. After being in church those 3 or 4 days solid, seems like things have just gotten so much worse and satan is really trying to drain my soul. I am really scared to death, I am scared that if I don't shape up once and for all, that God is just going to take me and I am going to end up in hell. After talking to several people, I really don't even know if I am truely saved at this point. I know that you can not lose your salvation, and once you are saved, you are saved. But, if you continue to sin and know you are, then honestly you were not really ever saved. This is what I am going through, I am just so sick of this, I am sick that satan never leaves us alone. I just want to scream. I feel like I am never going to get on track and stay there. I feel like I am never goin to be righteous and obey God. I feel like if I continue in the path that I am, God is just going to let me go and I am really risking my salvation.......I even called the Ministry that did my Deliverance back in March, and I wanted to go through Deliverance again, because sometimes this is done in layers. They told me they couldn't help me until I make a change and that I need to do some soul searching, and praying and asking God exactly what he wants me to do... Why can't being a christian be easier once you make that decision...I am just sick... satan just wants to destroy me and he really is trying his best. family, please pray for me....I have never felt the need for more serious prayer than right now, as long as I have been coming here......Please help me!!! kc

I've prayed over your email. Once you've confessed from your heart of hearts, your His. Plain and simple. Now you must continue your Spiritual growth and walk. Stop listening to satan's lies. Get in a VERY personal relationship with Christ, give your all to Him.

Hi KC, I'm having trouble reading your post correctly, and I had a question or two, and a prayer at the end. quote:
ORIGINAL: Itlyn1kc I really really need prayers every day please. Things continue to go up and down. After being in church those 3 or 4 days solid, seems like things have just gotten so much worse and satan is really trying to drain my soul. I am really scared to death. KC, it is not unusual for everyone to have good days and bad days, good times and bad. A four-day emotional high might well have drained your body of energy, where you then need to find some extra rest and ease back into your usual daily life. I don't know of anyone that can step into a much more wonderful time in life and never come back. Sure, they'll be changed, but no one expects them to be super man or wonder woman following their vacation in a dream destination. quote:
I am scared that if I don't shape up once and for all, that God is just going to take me and I am going to end up in hell. After talking to several people, I really don't even know if I am truely saved at this point. You are saying that as the Christian you know yourself to be, God, who saved you from eternal separation from Himself through Jesus' atoning sacrifice, is going to condemn you to eternal punishment in hell. And you are asking people whether you are saved or not? Who are these people? quote:
I know that you can not lose your salvation, and once you are saved, you are saved. But, if you continue to sin and know you are, then honestly you were not really ever saved. This is what I am going through, I am just so sick of this, I am sick that satan never leaves us alone. I just want to scream. I feel like I am never going to get on track and stay there. I feel like I am never goin to be righteous and obey God. I feel like if I continue in the path that I am, God is just going to let me go and I am really risking my salvation.......I even called the Ministry that did my Deliverance back in March, and I wanted to go through Deliverance again, because sometimes this is done in layers. They told me they couldn't help me until I make a change and that I need to do some soul searching, and praying and asking God exactly what he wants me to do. You said if someone continues to sin after being saved and knows they are sinning, then they were honestly never saved. Is that a statement of belief in your church? I've never heard of that thinking before, my friend. After Saul became Paul, he wrote about how he continued to be sinful. I don't remember him writing he realized he was ever able to live without sin. I don't remember him writing that he knew he wasn't saved because he wasn't perfect after God transformed his life- that he knew he was not going to enter heaven. I can try to explain the salvation of God as I believe it, explained to me by my Bible, if that will help. It is different than yours. quote:

I am just sick... satan just wants to destroy me and he really is trying his best. family, please pray for me....I have never felt the need for more serious prayer than right now, as long as I have been coming here......Please help me!!! kc Being a Christian on earth is not what you think. That's what is eating at your joy, making you sick. Dear God, Please comfort KC. Help her review what Your Word states about salvation, that she may find more peace in life, knowing that she cant' be perfect in the rest of her life, but that You do not require that of a Christian. In Jesus' name, Amen

KC, First I'd like to say that I've never heard of any ministry saying "they can't help me". That's part of their job. They shouldn't be concerned about whatever change you should make, that's up to The Lord and of course we have to make that decision on our own. I am still praying for you and will continue. I read Psalm 23:1 this morning and now I know that verse if for you. "The Lord is my Shepherd and I shall not want." As the scripture states, He is Your Shepherd. Everyone is sick of the devil because it seems endless in one way or another that he's always there. Don't give in to the lies that the devil tells you because YOU know better than that. YOU KC are a child of GOD and that's all that matters. We love you, we are here for you as a family. Trust in God and NO OTHER! quote:

We ask that You protect her with you unconditional love and let her know You are always here no matter what. We ask this in Jesus Name, amen Connie Lou

KC, I identify with what you have said because I face those same battles constantly. If Paul can desire so strongly to do what is right in the sight of God and yet do wrong and still be saved, then there is hope for me. Please don't misunderstand. We are all to pray and ask for strength to do ONLY what is right ("be ye holy"). However, as long as we are on this earth, we will battle with the flesh which is carnal. I believe that habitual and ongoing sin, love of sin, desire to continue following sin (only God knows for how long), shows that perhaps we were not saved after all. But we are all sinners saved by grace and we will all battle the flesh until we take our last breath on earth. The saved person will hate that they are sinning. The saved person will always ask for forgiveness and will habitually BATTLE the world, the flesh, and the devil. Starting in Romans 7:21 (New Living Translation) 21 I have discovered this principle of life—that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong. 22 I love God’s law with all my heart. 23 But there is another power[a] within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me. 24 Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death? 25 Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is: In my mind I really want to obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am a slave to sin. I am a simple person. All I know is that if I continue to take my battle against sin to God, and if I hang on to the hope that is in Jesus Christ, I will ultimately be victorious because JESUS has won the battle already. My assignment is to continue to fight. For many years in my life, I did not fight very hard, but as I get closer to eternity I engage in battle with vigor again. Father God, Please help KC know that You love her and that there is a place prepared in Heaven for her. Help her daily in the battle against the flesh. Our flesh is weak, Lord, please strengthen all of us. We are engaged in spiritual warfare, and I ask that you give us courage and wisdom. Help KC stay close to you in Your Word. Help her put on full armor from the spiritual tool chest so that she will not become wounded by Satan. Lift her up as she grows weary and give her assurance that You have already won the war. As she battles, give her rest and help her to know Your love more intimately. Increase her faith and comfort her. Carry her when she cannot stand. Surround her with Your protection. Help her to fight the good fight and to gain strength from each battle against the adversary, that old devil. It is in Jesus Holy and Precious Name that I ask these things. Amen.

Hi kc. If you are willing to share it, I would like to know the name of your church. satan will always try to attack. That's why we are told to put on the full armor of God. And it seems to me, that he loves to attack our faith. To make us doubt. God's word says that He doesn't give us a spirit of fear. So you know this isn't coming from the Lord. Romans 8:15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 2 Timothy 7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. All of us know that we are not and never could be good enough to earn God's grace. We all feel unworthy. And of course we are. But the good news is that He loves us anyway, and our salvation is dependent on how good we are. That would be works. It is a free gift of God. Ephesians 2: 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. As has already been said, even Paul wrestled with a sin nature. Romans 7:14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. 16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. 17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. 18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. 19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. 20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. 21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. 22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. 24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? 25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. Of course we are to strife to be holy. We are to grow to be more like Jesus. But as marstacy pointed out, we won't reach perfection till our last breath. We are to grow in Him, not to doubt our salvation. I can't help but wonder who this Ministry of Deliverance is and what changes they want you to make. We aren't to put anyones teachings above what the Lord teaches. All humans are fallible. satan would like to destroy all of us, but take heart: 1 John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. Father, we lift up our friend kc to You. Father, help her at this time. Lift up Your precious child and calm her fears. Help her to search Your word, and reveal Your truths to her as she does. Allow Your word to bring her comfort and assurance. Fill her heart, mind, and soul with Your peace and cast out all doubt and all fear. Thank You so much Father for all that You will do for kc. In Jesus precious name we ask. Amen

Thank you so much for all your prayers. I believe that they are helping, since I feel that I can not pray the proper prayer yet in this situation that I am in.. I go to a baptist church and it is the greatest church. And actually the people I am dealing with are not from the church, so it is noone there. I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday and he said the same thing, he said that I can call another deliverance ministry and that they can help me.... I will be back, I am leaving work..... kc
