What To Do When Someone Is Possessed?

If you know someone is possessed, of course be sure first, it is necessary for the person to be cured. There are several procedures that you can implement to cure the possessed person.

You can read here about how to know when someone is possessed. When you are sure, then you can follow these points below:

  • Tell the person to do a prayer and ask him/her about the feeling.
  • Bring the person to someone you know can cure him/her, beware do not go to a fake and liar guy, there are many in this world who pretend to know they can cure but in reality, they will steal your money. I recommend you to go to someone who asks money only for the materials that must be bought if a ritual will take place.
  • After being cured, tell the person to devote himself/herself in prayer and God stuffs.

If you have been possessed once in your life, it does not mean that you will not be attacked by a bad spirit again, do not forget, e are vulnerable, and we are easy to be influenced by entities.

There are several methods to cure someone who has been possessed. It does not matter if the exorcist guy you will go, his/her religion is different from yours, God is a supernatural force, so God is one!

Famous Mystical And Religious Symbols

Symbols and symbols, we find them everywhere, perhaps you are wearing one right now or have it near you on the table. In this post, I will write a bit on the world famous mystical and religious symbols…

*NOTE: Not all mystical and religious symbols have been included, you can suggest some as comment, thank you!

Ankh

The ancient Egyptians were among the most mysterious civilizations in our world, as you know, they were extremely different in their ways of living compared to other civilizations in that era. They had all kinds of Gods, rituals, prayers without forgetting symbols to represent a particular belief. Among their famous symbols used, there was the Ankh which is also known as the key of life. This symbol was mostly used when performing rituals, on tombs or to represent a deity. Pharaohs often wore it in special occasions. One thing is important is that until today, we do not know the real concept of this symbol.

Cross (Christian)

We all know the Christian cross which represents the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. This symbol is the most used and present in our world, in fact, it is the most used by people in a religious concept. The Christian cross is also present on tombs, churches, etc… Something important here is, we often find many crosses designed similarly to the Christian cross but in context, they are different, these other crosses will be described in the post below to avoid confusion.

Celtic cross

Celtic cross is a bit different from the Christian cross and was introduced into a different concept other than the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Well, the Christian cross represents the crucifixion of Jesus Christ as stated earlier and we use also the Celtic cross to represent Christianity except it was introduced differently than the former. Normally, it is said that the Celtic cross was originated by Saint Patrick, to make the Pagans realized the importance of the related cross in Christian belief. As I mentioned, the concept is the same as the Christian cross but was designed and introduced differently. We find it on churches, necklace, tattoos, tombs, and so on just like the Christian cross.

Saint Peter’s Cross

A religious symbol for some persons but a controversial for others, the Saint Peter’s cross is also known as the Inverted Cross. I bet you have seen this kind of cross somewhere, perhaps in Gothic rock video clips or concerts like Marilyn Man used it as cover on his album Antichrist Superstars (1996). The inverted cross generates a negative image to the Christian cross for many people because it gives a perception that you are against Christ for Satan. We must not forget it was used to represent a Christian symbol long time ago, the concept of anti-Christ was introduced recently in the 19th century. This symbol is also present on churches nowadays. I do not know what the Vatican thinks on this symbol but it seems some religious persons say we must not totally associated it with Satanism as there is nothing evil in it if we use it like this, however, to represent an inverted Christian cross with a Christ on it is considered disrespectful.

Eye of Providence

The Eye of Providence is also known as the Eye of God, to illustrate that God is watching us all the time. This symbol is often used in Christian which represents the trinity and you will find it in Freemasonry as well. Americans will know this symbol better as it is used to represent the Great Seal of the United States, and lastly, it is often used to represent the New World Order concept.

Caduceus

Perhaps you have noticed it on your medicine packaging or painted on drug stores because Caduceus is used to represent the medical field. However, the origin of Caduceus was from the Greek mythology, illustrating the staff who was carried by Hermes. In addition, this symbol is also used in occultism and alchemy.

Allah

Allah signifies ‘God’ in Arabic, and is used by Muslims. The name Allah is also used by Christians and Jews in Islamic countries in their respective sacred books. According to Islam, nobody has seen Allah and you cannot associate anything with God. Thus, Muslims use this name as a symbol to represent God. The name Allah was also used by the Pagans but they associated it with idolatry and so on before the advent of Islamic era.

Aum

Written Sanskrit, Aum is a sacred syllable in Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism and Jainism. No doubt it is among the most popular symbols that you can find today. We often pronounce it in sacred rituals, prayers and in meditation. Personally, I often pronounce Aum when I meditate. Aum is written in many ways which you can see one of them below:

Swastika

Swastika is a wonderful symbol for me, originated from the Indus civilizations, the Swastika is used in Hinduism, Sikhism and Jainism. According to the Hindu religion, it is classified among the hundreds symbols of the God Vishnu to represent the sun. In Buddhism, it is said it was tattooed on Buddha’s chest and in Jainism, it represents the seventh Saints. The Swastika can be either right or left facing, personally, I have heard that if a Swastika is left-facing, it is considered as evil (If someone knows the Swastika well, please tell me if it is true or a legend). This symbol was also used by the Nazis to promote power.

Pentagram

This one you already know about it, the Pentagram was originated from the Greek civilizations, today, it represents the evil and also used by Wiccans. The Pentagram is sometimes used in occultism, or when performing witchcraft. This does not mean that the Pentagram is fully a bad symbol, do not forget other beliefs use it to promote goodness. The Pagans used it in their era, the Freemasonry still uses it, even Christians used it in certain periods. The concept of evil which is associated with Pentagram began in 1960s where Anton Lavey, a so-called Satanist declared in his books the Satanic Bible and Sigil of Baphomet that Pentagram can be referred as fallen angels, a symbol of rebellion or any related evil concepts. Furthermore, he introduced a new design of it where you will find a goat-head included in the Pentagram. Additionally, you can find the Pentagram on flags such as the Moroccan flag, in political symbols, etc…

To conclude, symbols have been used since the cavemen era. We humans have associated our beliefs to them. For me, I strongly believe some of them are powerful to combat spirits, to provide luck or simply to associate ourselves with our creator (God).

Do Ghosts Afraid Of Prayers?

Billions of people believe in God, they believe in prayer because they feel it can secure them in desperate moments and so on. We human beings pray almost everyday to protect ourselves from demons, but do ghosts afraid of prayers? What guarantee you the prayer to combat bad spirits is effective?

Prayer

All religions suggest the same solution, pray to protect yourself, to be near with God, and to feel secure in this world full of antagonism. When someone is possessed by a bad spirit, a priest will perform an exorcist and that with prayer, we have always followed the same rule, pray and pray!

Prayer is a powerful aspect, it is just like you are transmitting a supernatural force, when you are ill, your parents can pray for you, if you know someone nearly to die, you believe a miracle can occur by praying, the main question is, can we combat evil spirits through prayers? I can tell you in many occasions where bad spirits do resist whatever the way you are trying to get rid of him/her! The related ghost may be so powerful that even by taking your God name, is still not sufficient.

There are many methods apart prayers where a person who is involved in paranormal such as a priest to push a bad spirit, for examples, we often use Holy water, broom, salt, religious symbols, a pact, and others… Why bad spirits often resist to prayers? For me, it is the same as a kid who is not listening to his/her parents! Hence, what to do if you encounter a spirit and he/she is resisting? All I can tell you is to continue to pray hardly, take your God name when praying, try to be more strong than the ghost and also, be ready! As I did mention in some of my previous posts, a supernatural force exists to protect you, a spirit is from a spiritual world, the world of souls if you prefer, he/she knows that force, there will be a time where the spirit will be weak if you keep placing an immense emphasis in prayer!When I was possessed twice, prayers cured me, I even assisted rituals where a religious guy was removing a bad spirit from a possessed body with prayers.

You can read a post similar to this one here on what to do if you encounter a spirit!

What To Do If You Encounter A Spirit?

Based on my experience, I will mention some important points here of what to and not to do if you ever see a spirit or ghost.

What to do:

  • If you are not afraid, just relax and try to communicate with the spirit

Ask the spirit some questions such as why he/she is here, what he/she wants… Do not rush in your questions, ask calmly and wait for an answer. If he/she is not replying you, try to ask again or simply say that you are going away. If the spirit answers, reply him/her or continue to ask questions. Beware, always speak the truth!

  • If you are afraid, just pray

Many people may be afraid if the first time they are seeing a ghost! I recommend you to pray your God if you are scared, try if possible to ask the spirit some questions. Try to relax!

  • Analyze the spirit

Spirits are good and bad, so if you had a conversation, try to determine if he/she is good or bad. It is difficult I know but try it! Additionally, if he/she is a good one, do not try to establish a friendship because you never know what will happen after, however if the spirit is bad, try to tell him/her to go away and pray to your God!

What you must NOT do?

  • Do not use abusive words when having a conversation

If you are having a conversation, do not use abusive words!

  • Do not make a pact

This is very dangerous if you are going to make a pact with a spirit, I recommend you to not do it!

  • Do not try to run away if possible

As you may get afraid, if possible do not try run away, I know it is extremely difficult to resist, but do try it as a spirit can take this as a weakness of yours and may influence you. Pray your God!

*NOTE:

  1. These points are from my own opinion, of course you may have different!
  2. Most spirits do not talk but communicate you via signs or telepathy!
