| Spiritual War for a Brother | | I've been watching one of my friends for the past month or so and I have been noticing strange behavior. The past few weeks have been a downward spiral for him. He is consumed with something. He runs red lights, doesnt seem to pay attention when someone speaks to him. His movement is off, he does almost ritual movements, talks to himself constantly...Turns out there is some deep spiritual war going on in and around him. Satan has filled him with lies:
He believes his earthly father is God. He believes he is not saved. He believes that Jesus came and died for the salvation of everyone but him. He believes that God does not love him.
Just a few months ago he seemed to be on track, some how the truth has been skewed. Please, I beg your prayers for him, for wisdom, and opportunity. Pray that the lies would be removed from his heart, that satan would have no hold on him, that God would build him up, encourage him, and restore him physically and mentally, and also that he would have a divine realization of who God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit really is. He is being attacked on so many levels; I can't even begin to understand it. I'm assured in the fact that in the end, God wins. _________________ Micah Lansing

| Re: | | His name is Phil, for the last year he's always had such a great heart. Pushing hard into the Lord. Dealing with a lot of sin in his life, trying to figure out stuff with his family. I dont know what happened... _________________ Micah Lansing

Online! | Re: | | I had a similar experience with a brother that I knew that was oppressed with spirits and ultimately went to a asylum for a month. I realized all I could do was pray for him. God is faithful, just pray. _________________ SI Moderator - Greg Gordon

| Re: | | This truly is very sad.... Have you ever read the book, [url=http://www.acts1711.com/Contents.html]War On The Saints[/url] by Jessie Penn-Lewis? It may bless you with insight, and was written so for purposes such as these i believe. I pray for your friend Phil brother... Oh, how important is the armour of God in these last days, and to take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ Jesus!!!!!!!!!

| Re: | | Just an update, my friend is doing much better. He's given testimony a few times the last few days and its been really encouraging. He's acting normal and responds normal. Praise God. Thank you so much for your prayers. Some of us have been fasting and praying for him and I know the Lord is doing amazing things in him. I'm still not sure where he stands exactly in his beliefs but from what I've heard him say, hes getting back on track. Please, if you can offer up a prayer for him, he has a lot to walk through still. _________________ Micah Lansing
