Demonic Attacks kyreie Saturday, December 25, 2004

Question:

Hi,

I was delivered this past June from vicious Demonic Attacks in which I almost died, I started going into the stages of possession, but by my quick thinking and the help and prayers from others, I was able to prevent that. It was discerned by Mother Nadine Brown of the Intercessors Of The Lamb that a Generational Curse fell on me. And I had demons attached to me at the womb which now makes me understand my violent behavior as as a child. And I had an irrational hate for all religion and the bible, and I never knew where that came from either.

I was Jewish when these attacks started (in my early 30's)
and converted to Catholicism in the interim. I had been involved in the New Age in my quest for searching for God (because I really wanted to know and find him) and due to an incident that happened when I was a teenager.

My uncle passed away and I was "compelled" to touch him in the coffin. It was like something pushed me to do it. The second I did, something in my mind "snapped". I knew something happened, but I did not know what until 20 years later. Whatever he had attached to him, came into me. And mentally from the time I touched him, I started having nervous breakdowns. I got into the New Age, looking for answers about God, never knowing it was demonic.

My attacks started again. I am getting a higher level of protection (so far) from the last series of attacks. And employing the techniques I learned. Three things were happening when it started.

1. Family Tree Healing. I read some books by Dr. Kenneth Mccall that I ordered and decided to have a mass said for some of my ancestors to try to break the bondage.

2. I was really angry, and I could not let that go. I could have opened up a 'door' that way. But I go to confession weekly, and I partake in the sacraments. Pray daily, always ask Jesus and God for that deeper relationship and healing. I have tried to live the way I am supposed to, yet this is happening again.

3. I was asked by someone who helped me to print out prayers and give her some exorcism oil for another person who is experiencing attacks. I am not sure which thing I did is causing this.

My question is, How does one get the inner healing necessary not to open up 'doors' emotionally?

I am learning about Spiritual Warfare by necessity, not by interest. There has to be away to do this. I just have not found it. Do you have any suggestions? I have made a full confession and forgave people. Forgiveness is still hard.

The other thing is, I am lucky I have someone who is helping me with deliverance. But, the Catholic Church seems to be guilty of not helping anyone. Exorcism is almost non existent. They are not teaching this anymore in the seminaries, and the Priests and the Bishops do not even believe fully in what Jesus did in terms of 'casting out demons' How does one get help if they need an exorcist in the United States if they are under such attack if the Catholic Church does not believe them?



Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM

Dear Kyreie:

I praise God that you have been delivered from attacks.

Inner healing comes from prayer, God's grace, and a willingness on your part to deal with any issues that are preventing or making difficult that healing. Healing comes from letter go and letting God deal with the issues. Healing comes with trust in our God and in His promises. God promises that if we let Him he will make lemonade out of the lemons in our life. God also promises that nothing will come into our lives that we cannot handle with His help. Since God is not a liar, we KNOW these promises are true and will apply to us if we allow God to work in us.

Part of the process of healing can include dealing with every spiritually hook in your life, regardless of source, to which demons can grab onto. Every one of them must be removed from your life.

Some of those hooks can be based in bitterness, revenge, anger, unforgiveness, pride, rebellion, and other stumblingblocks to spiritual health. Also involved can be low spiritual esteem, that is, not truly knowing who you are in Christ.

This is where Deliverance Counseling comes in. Deliverance Counseling, at least as how we do it, is designed to seek out and to eradicate any and all hooks in your life that allow demons to hang on to you in any way.

There may also be a psychological factor that must be dealt with to fully find healing. For that, one may need to go to a good Christian Counselor or psychologist.

As for the Church, there are many diocese who have exorcists, but it is true that some priests and bishops do not think possession or any kind of demonization if possible. Seminaries do not teach on deliverance or exorcism or on spiritual warfare in general.

This is a problem of the modern age, but this is why God raises up apostolates like the St. Padre Pio Center for Deliverance Counseling.

We will be praying for you.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
