DEMONS

Yes there are Demons 2 kinds at least.
Most of the time people think that I am little nuts and leave it at that but the truth is I think I may be one of the sanest people I know. Yes I hear voices but I am not scitso. I know who they are most of the time. There is three of them. One of them is a demon. That is the voice I will address here.
 An Angel named Lucifer was cast down out of heaven with him went 1/3 of the angles.
Now there is a war going on between Good and Evil it is a spiritual war that we all are caught up in.
I have spoken of it here before. from Nov 20 2011 Satan is know as the great deceiver for a reason. Satan exercises his evil power through demons. Satan's ambition to replace God is his passionate yearning to have others worship him.  we can read about this in the Good Book but how many truly believe how often do people blame God for the evil things that come up in the world.Satan's nature is malicious! He maims murders and destroy. Satan leads people into sin by various means. Sometimes he does it by direct suggestion, as in the case of Judas Iscariot He lies often using half truths or mixing the true and the false. Sometimes through his agents who disguise themselves as messengers of God. Sometimes through our own weaknesses telling us we are not good enough undeserving of love or friendship.To help Christians win this battle against Satan God has provided the tools we need The power of Christ's blood the continuing prayer of Christ in heaven for believers the leading of the Holy Spirit and various weapons for spiritual warfare (Rev 12:11), (Heb 7:25),(Heb 7:25)(Gal 5:16),(Eph 6:13-18).
Please see September 7, 2011 as well. The first and foremost way of the spiritual attack is our ears.He whispers to us putting his lies into our minds.The battlefield in which spiritual warfare takes place is in the mind of every believer.He will mix his lies in with the truth so that it seems more real.Remember they where angles once & can take many forms.He turns our own shortcomings against us.
Another way He deceives us is to lead use into a altered state through substance abuse or emotional upheaval as well as disease. this is what I like to refer to as the 2nd demon. I suffer from substance abuse I will always be a alcoholic / addict. But I was given the answer. I have manage to keep that demon under control for 28 yrs. How ? Well the first thing was I had to surrender. Yes surrender! This demon had to be smashed, locked up and put away. 1st by admitting I had the problem and was powerless to over come it. 2nd Coming to believe that there was a power greater then this problem (this demon). 3rd making the decision to turn my life over to that power. 
This alone with leveling of pride, the confession of shortcomings was the beginning of a long road that took me to a place that I never would have been able to go alone. I was as much the problem in stopping my drinking as was anything else was. Having been beaten to the point of submission I had accept help! Three men offered me a way out they gave to me a concept of god and a set of spiritual tools. Those 3 being the first along with the ideal that I was not alone in my battle. If it was not for that night and those three men I may never have lived long enough to find the God I know today and to have know I could live with out the drinking.
As for the other demon or demons that I am fighting I wish I could say I have them beat or at least I am beating them but I can not. What I can say is I am not losing. 2 out of three of the voices tell me so. The other voice He lie's.
