testimony
I'll start out by saying that this testimony has to do with a demonic attack from a Ouija board and how Jesus set me free. But first i will give you a little background of who i was before this happened so that you can understand the Ouija board experience a little better. I had been a christian for the most part of my life. I had been baptized when i was 12. During a Wednesday night bible study we were learning about baptism and i had never heard about it before. I had started asking questions to get an understanding of what baptism was. Immediately after understanding baptism i decided i had to be baptized immediately. Thankfully I was in a church that still did baptisms on demand, which is how it was done in biblical times. Nowadays churches schedule a day usually far out where they do it as a group which is not biblical. Baptism needs to be done immediately after salvation in order to have a more real and transformational experience. Not that it is mandatory, but most people receive the gift of the Holy Spirit when they are baptized. Receiving the Holy Spirit immediately after salvation will result in a very unique experience. So they baptized me immediately after bible study in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. They also asked me if i believe in Jesus as the Messiah in front of the congregation because the bible says part of salvation is to confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and you will be saved. That night i was immediately a different person. I was literally purified overnight and filled with the Holy Spirit. I felt completely like a different person. There was one problem, no one had taught me about specific sins that Christians needed to stop doing. So i didn't have the knowledge of how to walk through life as a christian.
My best friend at the time was not a christian and i started to follow after her lifestyle. I didn't really know any better at the time as i was not taught. The Holy Spirit was always with me. When you receive the Holy Spirit you receive power over sin, so i was very different from everyone. Everyone knew me as very innocent and pure. I never cursed and i always was very kind, loving, and forgiving because the Holy Spirit had changed me and was living inside me. I smoked weed with my friends, not knowing any better. I remember i would relish the fact that i could quit smoking whenever i wanted. So i would always quit and just sit with my friends while they smoked as proof to myself that i had self control. It was very similar to fasting. I also remember how if someone hurt me i was able to forgive and still show kindness to them which I also was proud of. These are all fruits of the Holy Spirit. The ability to have self control and forgiveness and to live as Jesus tells us to live. I also started searching for God through other false religions such as Taoism, conversations with God,The Secret, Chakras, astral projection, meditation. I read into allot of other religions and started doing astral projection often. I also studied religions in college.
A little later in life me and my other best friend played with a Ouija board together. It was very interesting because the spirit we were talking to said his name was Patrick. Every time we got on the Ouija board He would be there, He would tell us things like he loved us and was really nice, which is not normally what happens when you play with the Ouija board. Well we got bored with Patrick and asked if we could talk to someone else. What happened next was very creepy. The board was going erratic all over the place and said STOP playing with this board, STOP doing this. I believe Patrick could have possibly been a guardian angel protecting us since i had been filled with the Holy Spirit and I did not actually believe the Ouija board was real at the time. I had thought maybe my friend was moving it although we tested it and it worked by myself even. We were very ignorant and i believe God sent us Patrick to warn us. Well we didn't take the warning seriously. If only Patrick would have told us why, then possibly we would have listened. We just had no idea what really was happening and didn't really believe it was real.
So we kept playing it and had gone camping with my parents soon after this. A lady there started talking to us coincidentally about Ouija boards and how the spirits enter into her body and talk through her. This definitely was set up by Satan who works on the earth deceiving people. Soon after that we thought it would be fun and we asked the spirit in the board, who wasn't Patrick anymore, to possess us. I asked the spirit in my friend to make her eyes roll back into her head as proof it was there. Well her eyes did roll back into her head. So we tried it when it was my turn. It didn't work because i was filled with the Holy Spirit so it couldn't actually posses my body, but just put thoughts into my head. So i told my friend to talk to it in her head and tell it to make me do something. Then i got this thought "I wonder what it would feel like to close my eyes" so i closed my eyes. Turns out she asked it to cause me to close my eyes. It couldn't control me in any way so it gave me a thought first so i could do it myself. On the other hand my friend didn't have the Holy Spirit so it could control her body which is why her eyes rolled into her head by command. All of this I had no idea till later in life. I only had a though in my head that it couldn't do that to me for some reason. Well then we told the spirit to go back into the board and that was that.
After this was a year where i was completely different then my usual self. I felt strongly like something was wrong with me but i didn't know what it was and did not even think about the Ouija board. The first difference was i couldn't quit smoking weed like i usually could. I had no self control. I would get these moments, which i dreaded, where frustration would come upon me out of no where and i would be mean to my best friend, which wasn't like me at all. I became obsessive with figuring out what was wrong with me. I literally was becoming crazy in my head with nonstop anxiety trying to feel normal again. I couldn't even watch a movie because i couldn't control my thoughts anymore, they were just going nonstop at the speed of light. I was having nightmares about demons. I had a dream that a large demon was standing over me forcing me to do things. It looked exactly like Davy Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean. I had thoughts a strong feelings that I was going to Hell because I was not my normal self and i was doing bad things that I normally wouldn't do. After a year i said "I figured out whats wrong with me, its the Ouija board." My friend agreed because she said i use to never be mean. That very day it got even scarier. Because the demon had control of my mind, but not my body, I actually believed I was literally possessed.
To be continued i will finish this story later tonight. sorry for the inconvenience.
