I had always been a Christian boy, going to church almost every Sunday with my beloved grandmother. She left for Florida, and I hadn’t anybody to take me to church, so I stopped going. Well, my mother and step-father were having arguments and fights, and it was really hurting me, the constant yelling and hatred…
My mother left for England the day of my 9th birthday, and that was the one thing I still don’t understand today. It had only been a day or two after she had gone, when I started to feel as if I was not loved, and my misery slowly started to draw me further and further away from God. My step-dad was filling my head with lies about my mother, and my real dad was having problems of his own, so I basically felt alone. My step dad was always getting more and more strict on me, it was almost like everything I did, I did wrong….
About three days after my birthday, I think, it happened. it was night, not even late, probably like 10 or so, I was watching television downstairs, and decided to go up stairs to my room to sleep. I carefully made sure that everything was put back in place, all blankets were folded, and all lights were turned off. As I was walking to the light switch, next to the stairs to turn off the chandelier light, when for some reason I briefly peered into the computer room.
I saw this old, eroding man sitting on the computer chair,looking at the computer. it was dressed in old rugged funeral clothes, and looked like it had just came from a half a year in the grave. As soon as I set my eyes on it, it quickly turned around and pushed its body onto the computer table, towards me. Its hair was long and knotted, and its eyes plunged into the back of its head.
Though the description of it was long, this happened in less than a few seconds… as soon as I saw it, I turned towards the stairs, and fell down in fear. I could not move, I tried crawling up the stairs, but it was no use… I managed to scream twice, and as soon as I did, I felt this cold rush enter my lower back and faster than it entered, it exited through my hands, which were flailed in front on me. My step-dad came running down to see what was wrong as soon as he heard me scream. he was panicking, asking me what was wrong, but I don’t even remember telling him. He went to the computer room door, looked inside, and saw nothing.
Demons are deceivers, liars, and will get you when you are week, as they tried doing to me. the cold rush I felt enter my body, may have been it trying to possess me, but I think my grandmother left me with so much love for God, that there was no room for him, because the holy ghost was dwelling in me.
Becoming a true Christian is hard, as soon as you make commitment, demons will do whatever they can to stop you. But that is why you should not backslide, for that is a victory for them, and a failure for you.
I’m sorry, but the truth is that there is no such things as ghosts, just demons, trying to trick you into doing evil. But please remember, YOU HAVE POWER OVER THEM, but only through Christ. God Bless You, Jacob.
