Do you believe that walking under a ladder or someone giving you the "evil eye" can give you bad luck? Dr. Phil's guests say that curses and evil spirits are wreaking havoc in their lives. Sarah is convinced that she's hexed. For the last five years, she has been plagued with what she calls the "Tuesday Curse." Watch what happens when Dr. Phil's producers follow her around on her "unlucky" day. Then, George is convinced he is reaping the negative effects of a curse put on his family years ago in Mexico. He has even put his wedding plans on hold because he fears the curse will cause him to divorce! Plus, David worries that his wife, Holly, may be possessed because she has had the same nightmare for the past seven years, and she has been talking in a man’s voice, speaking in a foreign tongue and barking like a dog. What's behind her fearsome dreams? And, a woman claims an exorcism, performed by her father 26 years ago, put demons inside of her.  Share your thoughts.

amen!

Quote From: ssword

Demons and evil forces do exist! I have to testify that I have had several first hand encounters with them in the past. I would have many strange phenomenon occur in my house. Lights would turn on by themselves, the oven alarm would go off by itself, one time the light bulb in a light fixture popped out by itself and flung to the floor. I used to dabble in the occult when I was a teenager, but after I became a Christian I threw all that stuff out the door.  

  

The worse night I can remember occurred just a few years ago when I was home alone at night. In the middle of the night I woke up in ABSOLUTE TERROR. I felt that there was an evil presence in the house and at the same time I felt like my life was in danger. The best analogy would be the feeling of absolute terror coupled with the fear that I'm in danger and am about to be murdered. As one previous poster had said, a feeling of "overwhelming sense of doom". About a minute or so after I had waken up feeling this evil presence and terror, I had heard the knob on the bathroom tub fall down, the toilet seat fell down, and the door to the bathroom banged a few times. Since I couldn't pray out loud I had prayed in my mind that God would put a hedge around my home and cast the evil spirit out. Sure enough after a while of continuous prayer I felt a sense of peace. However, right before I was about to fall asleep again, the phone rang. (I never get crank calls in the middle of the night) I had picked up the phone but no one was on the other line. (I feel that this was an indication that the spirit was out of the house, yet trying to harass me through some one else's phone) After this incident occurred and I prayed very hard for God's hand of protection I have never been bothered again.  

  

There were signs that lead up to the attack like an increase in paranormal activity my family and I had witnessed within the house. But unfortunately we ignored those signs. A couple of times I used to wake up in terror feeling an evil presense and I used to dismiss them as being bad dreams... However, after this one single event happened which was coupled with physical disturbances within the house, I feel that everything in the past that occurred were really warning signs.   

  

Nowdays I have never had a single incident occur. I never wake up out of sleep in terror and there are no more physical disturbances that occur within the house.  

  

For those who are experiencing similiar problems or believe that you are cursed, the solution is a matter of the spirit. You need to dedicate yourself fully under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. You also need to fully REPENT of whatever you are doing that may be causing your disturbances. If you are involved in the occultic realm you need to get rid of all types of occultic objects in your house (ie, ouija boards, tarot cards, runes... etc).   Do not consult with psychics, tarot card readers or anyone that has anything to do with the occult realm.   

You need to continue seeking after the Lord and continue to pray for deliverance. At the same time it would be wise to find a well balanced Bible believing church and contact the pastor and elders to let them know of your situation. Have them pray over you. Unfortunately there is no alternative solution. Reading the Bible and displaying crosses in your home aren't going to work unless you have a willing spirit that desires to truly walk with Jesus Christ. The goal of these demons is to keep you under their control and bondage and nothing is going to work unless the attitude of your heart and spirit changes.  

  

Unfortunately demons do exist whether or not you believe in them.  

I couldn't agree with you more...Jesus is the only name that demons will run from. Cry out to him. Demon possession is real. Only a true daily relationship with Jesus will fix that.

01/05 "Am I Cursed?"

Quote From: lostjeans

I believe you are what you think you are. 

  

It may be possible to be "cursed".  But is it also possible to be a "lucky charm"?  and what makes the difference?  Your attitude?  What you believe? 

  

Just some food for thought. 

 I think that you 'hit the nail on the head' when you said "you are what you think you are".

Too many times people set up expectations for themselves, and then subconsciously make these expectations come to pass. 

I think that my attitude about this is best summed up by the old saying "the difference 'twixt the optimist and the pessimist is droll - the optimist sees the doughnut and the pessimist sees the hole."!

To Sharon,

Quote From: loriloo4

I am writing this messege with Sharon in mind, as a young child I witnessesed much of what you described. I was blessed for it not to be at the hand of my father or mother,Nevertheless we did attend a church that was out of balance and focussed on these issues. I struggled for years with My memmories and I too felt that fear and terror. Since my childhood I have plugged in to a very nuturing and supportive church family and was able to get past those haunted memmories. That was not of God. He first and foremost loves us and would never want us to be terrorized by those things. I left the "charismatic" church and have since moved to a Calvery Chapel. Calvery Chapel has a website and it's founding pastor Chuck Smith is a great man of god. They teach the Bible with an emphasis of gods love for each of us. I will pray for you. 

  

I just want to encourage Sharon to "Hold On" and God will bring you through. Dr. Phil Thank you for recomending for Sharon to find a loving and nurturing church home and to seek counseling. Thank you for being brave enough to "speak your opinon" on the air. 

  

  

Dear Sharon, 

I believe what went wrong, was that after demons are cast out, you then need to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Savior ( or for a 9 year old, ask Jesus to come into your heart). The Bible gives an example where a demon was cast out (& "the house was swept clean", meaning that the Holy Spirit did NOT indwell in this person) so, the demon went out & gathered seven more demons who ALL came back & came into this person, so that he  was worse off than to begin with. A test to see if you are possessed, is to say out loud "Jesus is Lord". If you are unable to, then it may be a good indication that you are. There is demon oppression & demon possession.  To keep your home free from demons, it is imperitive that you read the Bible out loud & pray out loud. God can read your thoughts (silent prayer) but the demons can't. They will flee at the word "Jesus" out loud. 

I am praying for you. Please feel free  to email me. I would love to hear from you and do my best to help you. Much Love, dlunquist@a-1connect.com

To Holly

To Holly, 

There is demon oppression & demon possession. Uncontrolled behavior could be either. A good test to find out is to say "Jesus is Lord" out loud. if un able to, it could be an indication that you are possessed. It is very important to read your Bible out loud and to pray out loud to keep your home & marriage free from demonic attack. I am praying for  you. Please email me if you would like to do so. Your friend, dlunquist@a-1connect.com

01/05 "Am I Cursed?"

Quote From: wolfie

well, yes i do study curses along with other things. which people here will not like    _  

and it is sad,  that most people don't seem to understand,  god is not first and only, and praise him when things go good,(which is fine and dandy) and blame him when things go bad.( which confuses me, cause he really didn't do any thing in the first place) and glad you came in for the hello,  and that my words here are not going in the wind here. 

So when you say that you study curses, are you going to someone's house or looking it up?  Have you come across some very unusual cases?  I'm sure you have, I'm just interested considering it seems you are the only one on here that works on that.  You said you look into other things that people may not agree with, and believe me, I understand.  I was just interested in learning more about this subject.  Thank you.

Hey wolfie, thank you for the invite, but I don't think I will be emailing you for I am not comfortable with giving people my address.  It is no offense to you, it is just how I am.  I did, however, look up your website, and you're right, there are some different things on there =) and I say good for you for being interested in something.  It is not of the norm, but hey, I do not follow others either, but I believe what I am doing is right for me and fulfilling, so if you think the same thing then go for it.  I too am glad that there is someone else with an open mind.  It has been nice chatting with you and take care.
