Ex-Witch Reveals: Is It a Spiritual Attack or Demonic Oppression?
Ephesians 6:12 reveals the reality for all believers: that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and the rulers of darkness within the world.
Often, their war plans remain invisible to the naked eye, and believers are left to deduce they are under spiritual warfare.
But the types of warfare vary: Is it demonic oppression or a spiritual attack? Ex-witch Beth explains more on her blog:
Attack: 1) to set upon in a forceful, violent, hostile, or aggressive way, with or without a weapon; begin fighting with; 2) to begin hostilities against; start an offensive against; 3) to blame or abuse violently or bitterly; 4) to direct unfavorable criticism against; criticize severely; argue with strongly; 5) to try to destroy, especially with verbal abuse.
Does that sound familiar to you? The devil is our enemy, and he is the accuser and the father of lies. He tries to destroy us in an aggressive way, and uses blame, criticism and verbal abuse as part of his attacks.
Then:
Oppression: 1) the exercise of authority or power in a burdensome, cruel, or unjust manner; 2) an act or instance of oppressing or subjecting to cruel or unjust impositions or restraints; 3) the state of being oppressed; 4) the feeling of being heavily burdened, mentally or physically, by troubles, adverse conditions, anxiety, etc.
