“There shall not be found among you … one that useth divination, a soothsayer, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer, or a charmer, or one that consulteth a ghost or a familiar spirit, or a necromancer. For whosoever doeth these things is an abomination unto the LORD” (Deut.18:10-12)
Ghosts are demon spirits who are familiar with a particular environment or family. Because they have been in that family or environment far longer than even the humans, they are ‘familiar’ with the history of the family and the environment as well, and so are able to mimic the person(s) they disguise/masquerade as.
Do not be ignorant of satan’s devices nor allow yourself to be taken in by his lies.“People are destroyed for lack of knowledge” (Hosea 4:6)
What you fear will always torment you but what you confront will disappear.
Stop listening to lies from the pit of hell that those ghosts haunting your house are your dead relatives. Instead of further compounding your problems by going to mediums, seek out the truth about your issues from the Word of God.
Satan takes advantage of people’s ignorance in order to victimize them. Refuse to be preyed upon. You have the victory in Christ Jesus already. He gave you the power over the forces of evil.
God’s Word says,
“Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you.” (Luke 10:19)
Confront the demons behind the ghosts and command them to leave at once.
You have to understand and realize that, “Every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith” (1 John 5:4)
Satan runs a parallel government against God, which is known as the “kingdom of darkness” (Colossians 1:13)
Even though satan is wise, he is not the Omniscient that God is. Therefore, he counterfeits everything in the kingdom of God in order to deceive the saints into false worship.
One of such counterfeit is the ‘unholy ghosts’ which is a cheap imitation of God’s Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost, as some interpreters have it.
Satan’s demon spirits masquerade as ghosts (unholy ghosts) in order to torment, oppress, intimidate, manipulate and control humans; as a means of accomplishing his mission to “to steal, kill and destroy” them (John 10:10)
It will be helpful for you to understand that demons are bodiless evil spirits. Because of their affinity with humans, they seek to possess the human body where possible, or live in close proximity to humans when possession is not possible.
That is why as unholy ghosts and the devil’s agents on assignment, they haunt either abandoned or inhabited homes as well as other places where humans visit or congregate.
The Bible warns us to:
“Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8)
We are to “Stand firm against him, and be strong in our faith” (1 Peter 5:9)
People suffer unnecessarily because of ignorance. satan takes advantage of people’s ignorance to torment, oppress, possess, depress, control, intimidate, and manipulate them.
But when you know and understand that the devil is at the back of every evil, you would stand firm against him with your shield of faith, to confront and unmask him in defeat.
WARFARE PRAYER:
ABBA Dad, thank You for the gift of your Holy Spirit who lives in us and works with us.
We plead the speaking blood of Christ over our homes and stand against the forces of evil that are intruding into our lives and homes.
We confess as sin disobedience, the bringing in of cursed objects into our homes, occult involvement such as consulting with mediums, channellers, diviners, and necromancers. As well as other related sinful activities.
We know that you are faithful and just to forgive and cleanse us from every unrighteousness, in accordance with your Word. (John 1:9)
We ask Father that you conduct a search and point us to any object(s) or person(s) who links these foul spirits to us.
We sever our ties to all such objects and persons and reaffirm our faith in you our God and Father.
We command all evil spirits to get off our lives and property now to the feet if Christ, and never come back under any guise or disguise; to torment, oppress, depress, intimidate, vex manipulate, control or obsess us.
We are God’s Children and have no communion with satan and the forces of evil. We refuse to give liberties to satan in our world.
Our homes belong to God and by this prayer we consecrate everything we are and own to the Almighty God in CHRIST name.
We are holy unto God and therefore nothing unholy can come near us.
Thank You ABBA Dad for perfecting all that concerns us and setting us apart for Your use, in Christ’s name we pray, Amen.
