Physical symptoms following spiritual warfare Serafina Monday, August 6, 2007

Question:

I wanted to ask how common it is (if at all) for someone to experience physical symptoms or manifestations after spiritual warfare prayers or being "blessed" by a priest.

Many years ago I visited a place considered to be "miraculous" in that people touching the soil there have been healed of vaious afflictions. I wasn't expecting anything like that, but I did gather some soil for myself, and the very next day, noticed that a lingering and very painful back problem had completely resolved. My menstrual cycle (at least that's what I think it was) also began very abruptly, much earlier than usual.

Here I am years later...I said spiritual warfare prayers the other evening, and the very next day, began bleeding very suddenly, completely inconsistent with my usual cycle. I also noticed a co-worker looking at me strangely and intently, and they came out and bluntly said something looked very different about me.

I realize this might be coincidence or me making too much of something, but I wondered if you have heard of anything like this before?

Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM

Dear Serafina:

Well it sounds like you received a healing of your back. Praise God! A friend of mine received a healing of his back after having his back rubbed by water from Lourdes.

As for unusual bleeding in your cycle, I would first recommend you see a doctor. That could be a symptom of a health problem.

I have not personally come across a spiritual warfare cause for this, but anything is possible. I would have to know a lot more about what is going on in your life to make that assertion.

Unless there are other things going on of a spiritual warfare nature, it is probably a coincidence, and may be a symptom of a health problem. I would check with a doctor.

God bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
