demonic attack due to divine mercy chaplet Betty Saturday, November 15, 2008

Question:

Long story short - I have been living with my boyfriend for 10 years. I have in the meantime been growing in faith - I felt a very strong presence of evil twice while praying last year while I was saying the chaplet of divine mercy and felt a strong message of revenge.

We were planning on getting married but my boyfriend has been so busy working as he has been financially burdened due to customer/contract non-payment .

Once I received the message (It seems to me) my boyfriends personality started changing to overly hateful, angry, etc.. I have recently found out that he has been cheating since this time. I asked him to leave. He won't leave me alone and wants to work this out. He went to confession and says he feels like the weight of the world was lifted off him. He has admitted to feeling a dark presence in his life. But I don't know what to believe anymore and do not understand how these evil entities operate. I am afraid and believe they are still working through him. Could this be possible or am I just imagining it all? Thank you.



Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM

Dear Betty:

The demonic attack is not sue to the Divine Mercy Chaplet. The demonic attack is due to you living in grave sin for ten years. By living with a man you are not married to, and I presume having sex with him, (called concubinage) you are in a state of grave sin (I hope you were not receiving the Eucharist too for that would be a major grave sin of sacrilege).

To live in sin like this you invite demonic harassment. Whatever else is going on with him, with you, or between you, it is likely intensified by harassment of demons that you invited into you life through your sin.

You need to immediately stop living with this man and stop having sex with him now and in the future until you are married to him (if you marry him). Then you need to confess this in the Sacrament of Confession. Then and only then can any demonic presence be cast out of your life.

By the way, when your boyfriend went to confession, if he did not confess fornication with you and living with you for ten years in sin, then his confession was not valid. In order for confession to be valid one must confess ALL grave sins.

Thus, in addition to whatever other sins you and he need to confess, one is living together in sin, and two is receiving the Eucharist while in a state of sin if you did that during the last ten years.

When I say that any demonic harassments cannot be resolved until you and he start living a Godly life I am serious.

His "cheating" on you, the "message" of revenge, the dark presence, all of that is a direct result of the sin of concubinage. Stop sinning, make a good and complete confession, and then the demonic harassments may cease. Or, you may still have some harassments which you will have to struggle with as consequence of past sin. But, living a good Catholic life and with prayer (including spiritual warfare prayer) that can be overcome.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
