Why Am I seeing Demons?Pt. 1

The Shanta Atkins Podcast

1. THE SPIRIT GOD GAVE US DOES NOT MAKE US TIMID “For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.” —2 Timothy 1:7 Fear has no place in the life of a Christian. By the name of Jesus Christ who lives in us, we’ve been given authority over fear. If we’re starting to feel anxiety or fear creeping into our minds, we can rebuke this in Jesus’ name and find peace in the Spirit of God that gives us His power, love, and self-discipline. 2. BE STRONG AND COURAGEOUS “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” —Deuteronomy 31:6 While them in this passage refers to the giant inhabitants of the Promised Land prior to God delivering them to the Israelites, the core principles in this verse can be applied to giants (both literal and metaphorical) in our own lives as well. If you are living your life according to the will of God, he promises throughout scripture to never leave you nor forsake you. Ask him what His will is for you and learn to follow it with boldness. Furthermore, spend time in the Word of God daily. Constantly being in the Word and reading stories such as the one in Deuteronomy 31 above will keep God’s truth at the forefront of our minds. That way, when fear strikes, we are ready to combat it with the Word of God. 3. I WILL FEAR NO EVIL “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. —Psalm 23:4 David, a shepherd, was more than familiar with dark valleys in the physical world. He relied on God for strength to lead his flock to safety, but when he wrote this, he was referring to the Lord as his shepherd. Have you allowed the Lord to be your shepherd? Psalm 23 in its entirety is a great reminder of how God protects His flock. We may not always understand His ways, but we can rest in the assurance that His ways are always good.
