One has to walk lightly here as it may well cause a lot of problems.
Exorcism has been used as a means of casting out demons, but it can be a horrible - and dangerous - experience for the person "possessed," who could well be suffering from a neurological disorder and NOT Possession.
Far better to get a person who is competent and experienced. DON'T MESS AROUND WITH IT!
I have "sat by" with a group who were busy with exorcism, it was a remarkable experience as they released more than one demonic force. Each time a demon was released the man spewed into a bucket, that eventually had to be emptied. Every time he came up from spewing, he came up and spoke with a different voice entirely.
Eventually he came up and the voice said: "I am the last and my work is to destroy him before I leave".
Being in the Fire Dept and a medic, I well knew what people looked like, when they were on the point of death. I looked at the man and thought to myself: "This man is going to die and tonight we will find ourselves explaining to the Police why a perfectly healthy individual died in the church tonight"
The spirit's threat did not bother the pastor who was in charge. He simply said: "You are a liar, the truth is not in you and in the name of Jesus Christ, I demand you leave this body now."
The man started to spew into the bucket again. But when he came up this time, he praised the Lord and burst into tears. Everyone started to hop about and rejoice. In my mind I felt uneasy and felt that the spirit might be fooling us in order to stop going further. So I walked up to him, lifted his chin and spoke directly to him: "Who is Lord?" I asked. He replied immediately: "Jesus is Lord." and cried even harder. Then I started to hop about with the group.
This man had been messing about with Satanism for a number of years. Then he started to get thoughts of suicide. One afternoon he literally woke up and found himself standing on the top of a high rise building with voices urging him to jump. He realised that he was in serious trouble. He then, wisely approached the church for help
Jody it is ugly and something I don't wish to experience or ever watch again and I believe neither should you. It is a dangerous field and only to be undertaken by people who are VERY experienced and gifted in this field.
Don't expose yourself to it in any way. Leave it to others who know.

WHY WON'T JESUS SAVE MY DAUGHTERS AND SON IN-LAWS THEIR CATS LIVES AND MY LIFE? IT IS DEMONS! I NOR DID MY DAUGHTER OR SON IN-LAW CAUSE THESE DEMONS TO BE ON US! I BELIEVE THESE DEMON'S WE'RE PUT ON US! AND EVERYWHERE I TURN FOR HELP NO ONE SEEMS TO UNDERSTAND! WE DID NOT DO ANYTHING WITH THE OCCULT OR SATANISM OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT WOULD CAUSE THIS!
A believer can "Never" be possessed by an evil spirit, although we are attacked every hour of the day, including sleep. Satan is a defeated foe of the Heavenly spirit that dwells within a disciple of the Messiah. If doubt and confusion reigns supreme in the mind of an individual then that person is susceptible of demonic/Satanic possession. If any of you have any desire to do the will of GOD and follow the ideas of GOD then you can never be possessed. What is actually happening to you is the force of evil will which is Satan and his Ghouls making you feel like GOD has deserted you. As long as you hold the ideas of GOD, Jesus said, "I am with you always, even til the End..."
I understand. I have been through it and our dear Lord Jesus Christ delivered me. I love Him so much. I can discern it now and I can help. Just get a hold of me. Grace and peace be unto you!~Rich
Greetings to all!
I do not doubt that demons exist and may attack us, but you have to see that the devil and his demons are a defeated foe. Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.Col 2:15
Jesus Christ is Lord and if we are in Him then we are more than conquerors. To any one feeling under attack by demonic forces, I would say it is time to open your Bible and read aloud the wonderful truth of God's Word.
It is important to know who you are in Jesus Christ. The eighth chapter of Romans and Psalm 23 give us the wonderful assurance of God's love in our lives. The enemy's main tool is fear and as we read His Word we find that (His) "perfect love casts out fear" 1Jn 4:18 God bless.
