People will teach you to ignore this :( they say things like, "don't be baby" or "suck it up, there's nothing wrong with that person" :( Thank you for this
I operate in the discernment of spirits and its not only being able to tell that someone has a spirit my brother, but you can also tell when there is a spirit in a room. My hair stands up and my body goes on fire , yes you are correct about being sensitive, but so much more than that my brother in Christ. When you operate in any of the gifts there's actual spiritual warfare and I don't mean getting a headache, but actual demonic attack's. It is so important to have your house cleansed or apartment , you do not know what went on in that apartment or house before you moved in. Usually envy, strife, all divisions and much more
Even though in my adult life I have fallen faraway from God. Even when I was lost and studying with all kinds of religious groups (Jehovah's witnesses, Catholics, Mormons etc and eventually Atheism from spiritual exhaustion) I didn't know it, but this gift has led me to abandon relationships with different people I was trying to be friends with. There was always a feeling I had that someone or something was telling me this isn't right about a situation or a person. Despite them being a nice or kind person, I just knew something wasn't right. I think God has used this gift to bring me back to him. No science or logic could explain why I felt the way I did, so I knew it was the Holy Spirit.I don't focus so much on labels anymore like Lutheran or Baptist, but just God and the Bible.
2014kaydee ,I believe that he brings us alone so that we may know him better.
Me too man

I'm experiencing this. But I have a deep question about it. These people... What is it that's wrong with them??? I know something is wrong even though they are nice, actually incredibly innocent some of them. Yet I know something is not right. The more I accept them into my life the fruits of that I was right about it being wrong start to show up. But what is it? Is it as sin that they've done, or is it that they've got some kind of strange intent? Or is it... That they are some kind of different being in disguise? I'm so confused and sad
@@AndrewFerrer3d I feel so sorry for how you're experiencing. I feel like you've sensed something already (unconsciously and wasn't straight forward) about them that u know isn't right .
They seem nice but there's that NUDGE right ?
You're not insane, take that sign in heed and pray to God abour this.
You are so right in saying this gift is ‘always on.’ So true. I have not been faithful in keeping in step with this gift and I have regretted it.
OH MY GOODNESS, I HAVE HAD THIS SINCE I WAS A CHILD. IT WORKS THROUGH ME IN THE SENSE OF "FEELINGS" I KNOW WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT WHAT PEOPLE ARE FEELING. AND I KNOW WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT WHERE THE FEELING IS COMING FROM, FEELING THIS TRANSLATES TO THOUGHTS. FOR THE LONGEST TIME I THOUGHT IT WAS DEMONS BUT BEING BORN AGAIN I KNOW KNOW IT IS MY GIFT FROM GOD. THANK YOU FOR THIS INSIGHT. BLESSINGS!
How did you get through it?
I have a similar gift except less matured! I'm thankful I'm not the only one
@JESUSISGODALLMIGHTY it's not demons, it's the gift of "discerning of spirits". This is one of the gifts is from God once you become born again. What it means is, you are able to discern the "spirit" or intention of someone's motives behind their actions. The information you get is and can only come to you from the Holy Spirit of God.
You are not the only one. There are dark forces at work trying to fool Gods chosen. I may be wrong but you sound like someone who would be called an Empath or diagnosed through Meyers and Briggs as an INFJ. The truth of the matter is that our Lord is always with us and choses to turn up his presence in some of us. With that comes a set of gifts as discussed in this series. It is my belief that these are purposeful and to be used in his glory. We will each have a mission it is up to us to accept with free will or not. If you accept you will be led and shown a path. It will be on your heart and a rock steady knowing. My mission is to expose the veil infecting our people. I am to expose the corrupt, deceit and help to push the truth. We will be in service in our particular way. This may resonate with you and it may not but I have no doubt that this will have an effect in this community. I have asked God many things and he answered every last question I had. The problem is we often do not know what to ask. Much love and bless you. I hope all is well and you are at peace with your energy.
I'm new to this channel but so far its been very helpful! Thanks for using the word to teach instead of just personal experience (so many do that)
Lmbo at “gift of suspicion!!!” - I have totally called it this before haha! Great series, thank you so much! ❤️
Thank you for explaining what to do when you are notified that something is up. I feel it, but I didn't know what to do.
Great lesson pastor Mark. I'm BLESSED
Thanks for this, very confirmatory for me as I have been banging on about it for years now. Brilliant video, God bless, thanks. x
Thank God I stumbled upon your videos. So much depth. Thank you sir
Oh my 😧 thanks I needed to hear this.
God bless you and your family in Jesus mighty name 🙌
Devine knowledge works in conjunction with discerning of spirits... As most dont actually have this gift usually people don't teach or know u actually see demons,yes you see, hear and feel them, all the time !
Something to think about is that even normal?
Divine knowledge works by you knowing about a thing that no one else even you didn't know why you suddenly know such as the mechanics of a thing..Or the processes and components that no one else could comprehend but you can...or answers to questions about what ever subject and the answers just like an understanding coming over you that feels right..It's a really great thing such as inventors,they use their gift of knowledge to bounce ideas off each other everyday..Knowlege is informational energy ,it's spiritual,it's in the air...Thats how alot of ideas are stolen,lol..it's a great gift to have..And best of all it's Holy Spirit that has the Glory,the Spirit of truth,absolute!
Thank you Brother Neal for worderful teaching.
Its like a radar. Why am I seeing so many of these videos TODAY 🤗
another great video! God bless you
Love your teaching it’s awesome
Yes sir, God bless you sir .God will enlarge you sir in Jesus name
Thank you praise God! My family have been heavy church goers for years and I have seen preachers preach on the gifts of the spirit. One night at a revival a prophet told my mom that she has a house of prophets, (my siblings) and now in my adult years I have been seeing spirits on people and dreaming of events that come to past. Recently I saw my manager at work turn into a demon right before my eyes and was fired a week later. Thank you man of God for sharing this message, it really has helped me know that I am not crazy and that someone understands what I'm going through. Thank you for your channel and your obedience to the word of God.

This is one of my favorite gift, it's very important and the more we spend time with God, the more we can operate in it. Thank you for these videos, you can explain the gifts very well and give such great examples. God bless you :)
This was for me I pray blessing on you ,
Thank you, i needed this lesson 💯👍🏻
Daaaang, I would love to hear ur stories about discernment of the spirits in ur life and in the bible. I could watch all day long.
Awesome Lesson!
That’s such a good story
I love this gift. Being able to spot a demon on someone.
Quite a bit said there without Bible verses. Listening to another teaching, it said that it isn't liver shivers. Will still keep seeking 🙈
The discerning of spirits is the ability to see in the realm of the spirit to see Angels, demons or Jesus that is discerning of spirits in operation you will be able to see crystal clear like as if your seeing a person in the natural I will say it is not for everyone because it can be overwhelming and scary for some so be careful what you ask for!
Amazing❤
Superb ❤❤❤❤
so true, experience that you have the gift of discerning of the spirit anyhow that u will know... Amen
Thank-u...
Please Holyspirit give me the gift of discernment in Jesus Christ name.
Thank you, that was awesome
@Ashley Turner thank you for the compliment. Be BLESSED and know I’m praying for you!
Glory Hallelujah ...Thank You Lord ..Iam blessed...

Awesome.

Thank you Kim, I appreciate you.
Trying to learn about this. I have been able to discern right after I got saved. Not much available on this topic! While in a woman's house she was very cold towards me! I was bringing a baby gift, she is my husband's son's wife! I started feeling pressure, negativity, like being crushed! I had to get out of that house! She was very rude and barely spoke to me. I began thinking there was a demon influencing her unfriendliness. Clashing of spirits! I prayed for her while going to the store today. Walking out I fell on the ice, the lenses in my prescription glasses popped out and got lost in the snow and ice! Looking back I felt that was a spiritual attack! I've had other things happen to me!!!!
@Live in Christ I brought Mormon woman to church and she squirmed and wiggled in her set! It was so strange! My marriage fell apart! I brought a Bible to my New Age Medium friend, when I handed her the Bible she said, Oh, I'm spitting on you. I knew it was a demon coming through her! On the way home a huge man with curly long blonde hair got out of his car coming at me! I shouted I have a child with me! Oddly he abruptly turned and walked back to his car. I had an angel with me! Other strange things have come my way.
I had a feeling a long while back that something was up with me of this nature but I didn’t understand at the time and just went on. The last year if getting much more REAL with following Jesus I again kept having things happen but didn’t know there was a name for it let alone it being a gift and the past few months I’ve really come to the realization that THIS is what it’s called, that there’s actually a name for it. I haven’t told anyone though because I don’t want people to treat me differently aka badly or even possibly out of jealously. I like having this ability however it’s come with a cost as well because of seeing people for maybe not who they really are but of what is in them. And THATS the part I don’t know yet how to handle/go from there. I am saddened by some things I know now tho. Sometimes it’s hard to swallow. And idk who to talk to about it ether. I could my pastor but I’m kinda new at my church and again don’t want to come off as a wannabe or trying to be special or what have ya. Idk 😐 y’all, what should I do.
@KeeKee Davis thank you for the comment. When I first a started to develop in this gift it was tough for me as well. I remember when my wife and I would go somewhere out to eat, at times I would loose my appetite and even begin to feel queasy at times. It was caused by picking up on things from the people around me. At one point I almost prayed the Lord would take this gift away, but later submitted to it and learned how to use it for His good. It got much easier very quickly and it’s something I’ve come to appreciate in my spiritual walk. My advice is to lean into it, and use it to pray for others. If you have any direct questions, you can also submit those on our website at nealreyes.com/contact/. Be BLESSED!
Neal Reyes thank you!
I have this! I can’t name the spirit operating, but I know when someone is possessed.
Hope you come back and stream to you tube or upload more.
I have the gift of discernment. I can describe it as knowledge in the absence of proof. For example, I met an apparently "normal" family 10 years ago. I almost immediately sensed the demonic spirit of incest and an overwhelming feeling of falsehood covering the adult siblings and mother. Three years later, they confessed to the incest.
Thank you
good job enjoyed listening to the word

Thankyou
The Gift of Holy Spirit Discernment changes what you actually see, and it is not feelings like suspicions.
Each gift of the spirit can inhabit slightly different abilities within each gift. For example: People who are talented musically cant all play the aame instrument. Some are gifted at guitar, others singing. Same talent or gift of music, with different specialty. I believe that each gifts of the spirit work the same. Some people with discerning of spirits can see the spiritual realm, and some can feel and sense spirits and motivations.
I wish I had this gift I have no idea if I do.. though X3 I want to help people with this gift too and understand them
Hi Neal can u please teach how to get these gifts.
I think we do suppress our discernment sometimes b/c we don’t want to think ill of others or judge them.
*Dubstep banging*
“Today we’re talking about discerning of spirits”
4 senses? You said sense of touch twice? Appreciate the video!
Why have I been able to hear other people’s thoughts?
Sir..sorry to correct you said >the sense of touch twice
If anyone thinks they have this gift working in them, comment please. I'm trying to find people who's going through the same situation
Let me share my background. I was driven out of the church about 7 years ago, but I fellowship with God on my own by praying and meditating on my bible, which has done me much better than sticking to a church (theres a lot of deception these days) Anyways, thats not my point. I have been praying to acquire this gift (discernment of spirits), since I strongly believe that I really need it during these times. Moreover, as an example I got the gift of prophecy, but at the time I was inside a church, and it was confirmed to 3 main pastors inside the church I used to go to. On the other hand, I have noticed lately that when I get near certain people, I have this feeling of "oppression" or.... like if a river was VERYYY DRYYYYYY, or like.... something doesn't fit, it is hard to explain. My question is: is this a gift of discernment of spirits ?? I honestly don't go by "feelings" and since I don't have a church where they can be like: "you have received the "gift"" lol. Please help.
The only way I can explain this is my physical body is still, not moving at all and my spirtual body wants to leave, it’s uncomfortable. I feel like my body wants to slice apart. That’s how I feel when I am in the presence of an evil Spirit.
What if the person with the demon also has what’s called in the clinical world a “dual diagnosis “ and a lack of intelligence, “mental retardation”, for example. And they don’t truly understand what it means to be “willing” ? Can they still be prayed for and delivered to where the demons don’t come back?
I know nothing is impossible for God, but I’m speaking on terms of “willing” and “unwilling”
Theres not one video going straight to the point. Examples, personal experiences.
Now, how do we get this gift??
Amen
everyone that you encounter has an angle. God gave me to the ability to see the angle. Even the way people speak and the words they use can illicit certain reactions from you and make you start doing things you didn’t want. Discernment is being able to see through the spelling, glamour and veil people use. You just everything as it is lol
Recognizing spirits.
Boom..
Listen very closely at 11 minutes in
In most cases..if a person does NOT want the demon to be cast out !!!
What’s up with the Bangerang song in the background? A godly song would of been wonderful but that is the music I listened to BEFORE being washed by the blood of the Lamb. How are you to discern anything if you do no separate yourself from the world?
On a second note: I enjoyed what you had to actually say. Can you please quote the scripture that says “a person cannot have the demon cast out if they don’t want to let it go”? I’ve never heard that before. I will also search this in God’s word for myself. God bless you and your family.
I sometimed have the impression thzt I am one of these "dangerous" people the gift of spirits tells other people to avoid...
Any of you can tell me how to remove this negative influence within me ? I know i have things to operate in my life, fear to remove, penance to do, people to ask forgiveness to and links to cut ; is that all it takes with the Lord ?
Ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and to come into your heart. Confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord, tell Jesus you believe he died on the cross and arose again in 3 days. Tell Jesus you believe your a new creation in Christ Jesus, to search your heart and take out any unclean thing. I would recommend reading the King James Version Holy Bible. Start with the book of John, Mathew, Mark, and Luke. Find you a good Holy Ghost filled church. Jesus loves you welcome to the family!
Thank you Jesus for allowing me to be blessed in finding and becoming connected with Neal Reyes. First time I am commenting on youtube. I woulf like to know if you are able to make a video or explain to me what and why i am seeing numbers. (11:11, 333,555, 10:10, etc) is this part of discerning spirits?
Don't think too much into that I remember I asked the lord about a certain pattern of numbers and he said not to worry about it essentially
Love I see the same numbers but I cannot find anything in the Bible but I’m excited if someone can share this information
In my own experience, seeing numbers everywhere was the Devils way to try to distract me from Jesus.
Initially I could believe God Jesus The Holy Spirit sent them to me to “wake me up” but when it stayed consistent i searched the meaning in OTHER places.. (in my case, I honestly can’t say I tried to look too hard for biblical answers.. )
&when I searched other places I got led into a rabbit hole of deceit aka the new age. . Look up new age deceit or you can even go to my page/channel, I’ve posted my testimony... but please JUST STAY SEEKING JESUS AND ONLY JESUS.
Jesus said on the sermon on the mount:
-Matthew 7:13-14-
The Narrow and Wide Gates
13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”
Hi Neal, thanks so much for this video. Would you please provide the Bible verses to support your claim here that we cannot cast out a demon on a person if the person is not willing to let it go? Isn't the Lord's name most powerful and when we use the Lord Jesus' name, it should and can definitely cast out the demon? It does not rely on the person but on the power of God and when we plead the blood of JESUS, that is most powerful is my belief. I'd appreciate your input. Thanks so much and God bless.
Bc God never forced anything on or out of anyone, right to choose.
If that were the case, all people would be saved because the name of Christ has been declared over all of the world. Man must submit to the will of God. It’s called free will.
Im having a hard time knowing how to handle this gift. At times people that surround me like family are operating in the occult and I can become very drained and tired when they are near me. How can I learn to manage this gift? My brother for example just began practicing Hinduism and other things. I feel like I’m in a constant battle with the enemy for his salvation, trusting God to do his will in his life.
Look up Kevin L A Ewing on UA-cam… search videos on witchcraft… his teachings are life changing. His videos are lengthy but it you skip one part, you’ve skipped a lot! Let the Holy Spirit be your guide!
Read books on the topic
God bless you 😇🙏Hi ...I have a serious question when I'm at work at a resort I'm at a gate I can only assist one guest at a time For a while I'm feel my spirit man give me huge sensations when certain people approach my gate sometimes the sensations are strong sometimes soft so is that what it is it's a warning against who's approaching me is the case I need to pray over them or just take heed of the warning I've been decerning since a child it wasn't until recently the holy spirit revealed it to me.I didn't understand I was sensitive in that area especially as a child feeling everything & everyone intentions I used to clutch to classroom doorframe to not be placed in class & sense people ( other kids) intentions or read into their demeanor , Or the dread of a grocery store. I felt suffocated practically in a panic running for the door. 😆😂 I'm soaking into all the knowledge now since receiving the holy spirit learning everything about him.
When you are at work, consider it a warning or awareness of your surrounding. It gives you insight into how you can pray for them, but prayer is something you do privately to yourself unless prompted by the Holy Spirit to pray directly over them. Don’t be surprised if it’s a mixture of both. Also, sometimes it’s just a warning from the Holy Spirit who to avoid if possible without neglecting your work responsibilities.
@@NealReyesMinistries I've had Jesus Christ in my life & believed all my life but it wasn't until about 1 year 1/2 that I've received the Holy Spirit never Imagined how personal & deep Your relationship can get with the Lord until receiving the Holy Spirit. Jesus was my imaginary friend and companion I've gone through many trials since a little girl the very person that was supposed to protect and love me introduced the harsh reality of not meeting the cut, playing favoritism, being physically & mentally abused I felt alone isolated unwanted but now as a adult understand she was just repeating a ancestral curse. Jesus was all I had for strength for love for support it's been a ruff life but in the mids of it all my heart still loved still forgave still couldn't hold on to anger even though my flesh wanted too...I'm just not ingeenered that way I love peace far more . Those that caused me pain I've forgiven I don't care too much for hatred , bitterness or resentment. I like positivity & a peaceful environment. After a devastating 10 year marriage separation I asked the Lord to remove if it wasn't meant for me. 3 years ago Jesus drew even more closer to me as I to him embracing the healing I so much needed he restored me & my broken heart. I forgave him too with no hard feelings I kept the Lord at the forefront of every dicision I'm now Divorced. I feel happy healed whole . So a year & 1/2 ago I found myself in a empty dry repeating cycle of a prayer life As I mirrored myself I was displeased that was not How I wanted to bring glory to God I praise for forgiveness repented . I came across a video on UA-cam on how receiving the Holy Spirit can strengthen your praise I truly wanted to glorify God I asked Jesus to receive the Holy Spirit. What took place next was the best thing I've ever felt in my entire existence of being alive. I felt like a being of light shot like a lightning bolt in me I started barking making animal sounds then it translated into speaking in tongues I saw a vision a book dropped & opened a big eraser started erasing my past it was erasing from the center of the book backwards towards the beginning from my book of life as I was overcome with love I was electrified every part of my body was tinkling I was a crying messs even after that took place the annointing lingered for hours it was amazing so ... Naturally I started praising God with my gift of the Holy Spirit my tongues changed a couple of times I now share the praise with the Holy Spirit it's amazing I now even sing in the Spirit. A whole nother level of worship he even gives me Bible verses to learn . He helps me when I misplace stuff. He makes sense of dreams or situation that happen that where to benefit me to expand my knowledge or heal me he connects the dots & puts it all together in a way I can understand. Im learning alot & getting quite aquatinted with my new friend. When I first started it wasn't much out there to assist me or aid me in my understanding of the Holy Spirit I was so afraid I wasn't reading him incorrectly the signs miracles or wonders but as time was passing When I thought I wasn't learning then I get to talking about the Lord with someone & realize how much I've grown spiritually he was helping the progress it has been slow but it's why I'm so happy I found your channel to understand on a deeper perspective 😇🙏 on how the Holy Spirit teaches us he & ministers to us so we can become better Stuarts of that wisdom & not be afraid to embrace him thanks again God bless😇 Amen Amen.The Holy Spirit is the Royal seal to our salvation it's why Jesus had to die & be resurrected so he could continue to teach strengthen empower us as his disciple's & unveil the eyes of others enslaved . Jesus is God's Secret weapon. He continues to minister to us in spirit & truth. It's why embracing the Holy Spirit is important the flesh in this world has people denying afraid or believing the HOLY SPIRIT isn't important or necessary for salvation a church that doesn't empower people with the Holy Spirit it's not of God & their concealing the truth keeping you in bondage, if the Holy Spirit ain't a part of your life then you are not growing as a child of God if your afraid to embrace the very being that brings growth as disciple of a church then your at the wrong church it is not!!!! Of God if you feel & sense emptiness & nothing changes when you go to church & you feel stale like a dud or question yourself why you even going to church & nothing changes & your not receiving transformation your fruites isn't flourishing or taking root. You must embrace that what your afraid of only then will you receive growth & transformation.You will see things for what they truly are & know It's a huge deception to keep you blind enslaved by the things of this world the longing emptiness you feel the the missing peace It's meant for God only he can fill the void & complete you it's not!!!! The things of this world 😇🙏💋❤️ Amen Amen hallelujah Glory to God 😂
I was wondering if you could pray for me. My name is Zesar Perez Garcia and I'm feeling so down lately. Im been so lost lately. I have no direction in my life. I know that the path I'm taking is not right because something inside me tells me I have to change. But every time I try I always fall deeper in sin. Please pray for me.
Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Read Ephesians 6 and put on the armour of God. Also read psalms 91. May God help you through your journey.
I know if a person who has very charming personality but involved in immoral activity. Before I found out what he was doing, I felt something way off. Thank you Lord for protection.
if I meet someone that I think is afflicted with demonic spirits, how can i bring this up with them?
@Beautiful Angels, unless you are led to by the Holy Spirit to speak to them about it, then you don't bring it up. You must be led (or released) by the Holy Spirit to do so. If the Holy Spirit leads you to bring it up, then He will also give you the words. When a person has demonic spirit on them, they cannot be freed from it unless they want to be freed. If they are unwilling to give it up, then it cannot be cast out.
Pray for them as an interrcessor(intercessary prayer) , otherwise they must use their own free will to ,confess sin, repent, and accept christ as personal savior ,to be exorcised properly u must be christian...
You have more freedom than you think. Let me be brief as possible. You have authority and power over the enemy. You tread on serpants. If a police man said something it doesn't matter if you want to do it or not its happening. Same with the devil. You can cast out any devil weather a person wants it or not. Because the devil is under the authority of a child of God. Now if a person wants the demon you can't stop them from getting it back. We don't have authority over people. Devils come to people for different reasons. One of them is by what a person likes to do. A certain habit a person does or lifestyle. If a person is unwilling to change. The devil moves right back in. To prevent this. Try to get them born again. Or disciple them. Meaning teach them truth. The word. Anyway, people don't know they have a devil lol. I know I still wrote a lot, but bottom line you have authority over the enemy. Every knee must bow to the name of Jesus. For scripture. In acts there was a soothsayer. She earned money for her masters by soothsaying. The bible never says she needed help or wanted to change. She followed Paul saying these men come in the name of the Lord. But after 3 days Paul was grieved and turned and cast out the devil. The bible never says God told him to do it. Nothing like that. This portion of scripture shows both you don't need God to tell you to do the right thing and a devil can't stay if commanded by a child of God weather the person cares or not.
Discernment of the spirits is discerning the ruach, the breath/wind. It is not labeling and naming demons at work. Someone with this gift is able to discern someone's motivation, driving force, ill intent...not the "demons driving them to do it". Demons don't have that kind of power over believers. We don't always have a demon over our shoulder controlling our thoughts, emotions, and desires. Those come from US.
Jennifer Carrigan thanks for explaining this out for me! I was thinking I didn’t have it after all because I can’t name demons....but this explains everything! Thank you!
I have definitely discerned a “spirit of fear” or a “spirit of rejection” over someone... and I have discerned it in the church! I myself was tormented by multiple unclean spirits! It does happen more often than the enemy wants us to know.
This is wrong
Jennifer, people with this gift use it for spiritual warfare. It means we can sense and or see the attacks of the enemy against people or against us. It doesn't mean the demons have power over us. But all Christians can be oppressed, attacked, and tempted. People with this gift, we enter spiritual warfare all the time of course guided by the Holy Spirit and God. Its to recognize the presence of evil or when the devil is at work. We bring about prayer with authority over this entities. Remember, out battle is not against flesh and blood. Our battle as followers of God is spiritual.
@@ruchie3461 , study the Hebrew and Greek meanings for spirit. God revealed this gift to me only once I had a deeper understanding of "spirit".
This is really insightful and the testimony is really helpful. I do have a question though, when you spiritually discern someone has a demonic oppression, especially if they were a family or friend, how would you go about reaching out to them? I've been trying to work it out with the Holy Spirit on this because it can be difficult to 'hang' around, since they are family and friends.
Pray for them. That God would have mercy on them. And that their eyes would be opened to see, and their ears opened to hear. PRAY 💚 There is nothing we can do, ONLY JESUS SAVES😭 AMEN
Jezebel. That's what I am dealing with
Why do you believe that you can’t cast a Spirit out? The word of God tells us that we have the power and the authority to do so. It says that we have the power to do everything Jesus did when he walked this earth and he cast out demons. When you stated that at the end of this video I’ll be honest he jumped in my spirit because I don’t agree with your statement. I would like to know what biblical backing you have that would say you can’t?
I believe because he first asked Jesus if he was to help the man and Jesus said no, he was just using the man as a teaching example. The Holy spirt is continually teaching and chastening believers filled with the Spirit when it comes to their gifts. And like he stated if the person is unwilling to let go or release the demonic spirit there would be nothing he could do. Jesus gives us the choice of free will, If the man wanted to keep the spirit or refused to believe or have faith that it was present is the speaker stated Jesus allows for the spirit to remain. But you are absolutely right we have the power through Jesus Christ to cast out demons as He permits his will for us to do so. Glory be to God! But nothing happens outside the will of God.
I doubt that your making that gentleman feel uncomfortable was a result of having the gift of discerning spirits. The Bible says our enemies are not people. It also says the second greatest commandment after loving God is loving people. So this message needs rethinking. It could (and will) be used as an excuse to give people the cold shoulder. That will not edify the Body of Christ.
He said sense of touch twice lol
Disagree with you in small part!
