People don't just wake up overnight and become demon possessed. There is a series of events and stages of personal spiritual decline that takes a person deeper into darkness.
What you tolerate will perpetuate and eventually dominate.
Paul Davis is a worldwide minister and author of Supernatural Fire. He has successful dealt with and delivered people harassed by demons in every continent.
Paul instructs us in the steps toward demon possession.
1. Regression – to withdraw, to decrease, or backslide. To revert to a former level, to reverse a trend, or to shift to a lower state.
2. Repression – lessened and quenched expression...joyless, lifeless, pathetic.
Repression is the outward sign that regression is taking place on the inside.
3. Suppression – to squeeze down abnormally, to conceal, as to suppress information, feelings, and desires.
4. Depression – a psychotic or neurotic condition characterized by an inability to concentrate, insomnia, and feelings of extreme sadness, dejection, and hopelessness.
5. Oppression – like depression carried to the nth degree. To oppress someone means to weigh them down with a load they’re not capable of carrying. The dictionary describes it as keeping one down by severe and unjust use of force or authority.
6. Obsession – Obsession is not always bad. Some people are obsessed with the things of God, and that’s a good thing. The evil form of obsession, however, can be a terrible and cruel taskmaster. A person who is obsessed is one who is preoccupied with an idea, feeling, or emotion that cannot be broken by natural means. It is a persistent, inescapable, compulsive preoccupation.
7. Possession – in which the devil captures the immortal soul, to be under absolute and total control of the devil. Your willpower is owned by the spirit that lives in you.
An old Chinese proverb says, “A journey of 1,000 miles begins with one step.” That is true of any journey, including the journey into the bondage of obsession. If you want to maintain your freedom, don’t ever take that first small step away from what you know is right.
There are demon possessed people all over the world. People in America just clothe them in three-piece suits and plastic smiles.
To get free from demons, repent of and forsake your sins, pray and invite Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit into your heart, worship God regularly, and read your Bible daily.
Beyond that contact Paul Davis for freedom coaching, counseling, and to minister in your city.
