re: Weird feeling Athanasius Tuesday, November 6, 2012

Question:

Hello Brother,

Thank you for your prayers. I have felt peace and relief when you responded to my question and prayed for me, I felt there were some war that went on inside of me as you prayed for me (felt like things coming out)

I'm still struggling with the issue of oppression but little less than before. I'm still trying to figure out what happened and one thing that came to mind (one day I prayed for a woman that she was having darkness around her and I did rebuke the spirit in the name of Jesus and I'm thinking that I could be being harassed by the spirits that I rebuked from that woman, is that possible?)

Please keep me in your prayers especially this week since I will be attending unbound ministry.

God bless you and protect you

Dear Athanasius:

I praise God that you have found some peace and relief.

You need to focus on your own struggles, and not get involved in rebuking spirits bothering other people. This is for two reasons:

1) you have not healed, which takes time. You need to focus on repairing your faith life by being the best Christians you know how to be with devotions, attending the Sacraments, bible study prayer, etc.

2) you are not qualified to be rebuking spirits and need to stop that immediately. You can refer the woman to our Spiritual Warfare Prayer Catalog where she praying a rebuking prayer for herself, but you should not be praying such a prayer for her. You do not know that you are doing, it is dangerous, and you are too soon demonized yourself and thus still vulnerable.

We will certainly keep you in our prayers.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
