You most likely do have a gift, but let me tell you about somebody first. My mom's friend has the ability to hear and see spirits. So do her kids (they are slowly developing the ability).
When she was a kid she was terrified of her ability. She thought she was going crazy and she was ready to go to a doctor or something because she couldn't sleep, they would keep her up all night, she'd hear voices and see things. She would have probably been diagnosed schizophrenic if she went to a doctor, so she was going to get a priest.
But her mother had to tell her not to go see priest or anything because they have a gift that runs in the family. Her mother went through the same thing when she was young. Well, now, she is so advanced that she can communicate with spirits in conversation and she's NOT crazy.
One big event was one day she went downstairs and her dead step father was standing in front of her. She threw up right away (and spirits still scare her), but she knows now that they don't TRY to frighten, they just want to communicate and don't know how. And to them, she is like a bright light on the other side so they all want to come to her.
So anyways, her step father who is standing in front of her starts speaking but his mouth wasn't moving at the same time he was speaking because they don't talk like we do, they speak telepathically. He told her that he needs to tell her three things. 1) First and last name of somebody who has his $10,000 watch, where her mother's dog leash was that he hid, and that the insurance papers were in the top left of the closet.
She was hyperventilating, crying, freaking out. She tried to run out but the door wouldn't open so she called her mom telling her what was going on. The cupboard doors were opening and closing and her mom actually had to communicate with the dead step father to tell him to stop because he was scaring her.
(By the way I have all of this on tape if anyone's skeptical, not that it's going to change anything for the hardcore skeptics). When she told her mother the first and last name of the person who supposedly had his watch, her mother didn't know who the person was, and neither did she. The mother eventually called the step dad's daughter, and SHE knew exactly who the person was.
Turned out they had the watch. The place where the dog leash was (in the hood of a car) was correct, as were the insurance papers. This is just ONE of many experiences she's had.
She knows when people are lying to her, knows things about the future, and people and all because of the guidance of spirits. She says she's not psychic, but she's talking to THEM. If you want to listen to the first part of the tape this is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHSb04y6_... But what I'm getting at here, is that if this isn't a one-time thing, and you have other things about seeing the future, or having predictions, hearing things (clairaudience), seeing things (clairvoyance), feeling the presence of something or someone, you probably do have a gift that you need to develop.
Somebody who talks all about this stuff, getting rid of spirits, developing your abilities and such is a psychic medium, Kimberly Bunch http://youtube.com/kimberlybunch Everyone has the ability to connect with the other side to a certain degree, some more than others. And some have more like a 0.0001% connection because they choose to believe it doesn't exist. The more you learn, and develop your abilities, the more you will understand and be guided.
Yes it's a scary thing but that's only because so much of it is unknown to us. But just because it is unknown does not mean it isn't real.
Ethan & CF hit the nail on the head. Those are demons you are dealing with. They can be seen, felt or heard, even present in the mind.
You're dealing all of those. The people that say they can contact spirits & say that you can do the same most likely dealing with some sort of demon themselves and not even know it. That lady was speaking a spirit of witchcraft into your home.
Stand your ground, both you and your mom and anoint your house. Pray the blood of Jesus over your house (Philipians 4:13 you can do all things THROUGH CHRIST who STRENGTHENS you!). Stop consulting "paranormal professionals" who don't know what they are messing with, demons can be VERY dangerous & thats what people don't realize.
And don't open up your mind or home to demons. They come to steal, kill, and destroy. There are no such things as ghosts, but demons are as real as it gets.
My advice is to continue to pray to God to protect your home, family, and minds. Movies make it seem like prayer and all those things don't work, but they do, it's just the spirit of fear (a demon that is most likely present in your home, and demons never come by themselves, most times they bring multiple kinds of demons with them), which God did not give you. ( God does not give us a spirit of fear but of POWER and A SOUND MIND.) also you getting sick is the spirit of infermity.
Pray against that. I will keep you and your family in prayer, nothing is stronger than the power of prayer! Much love : BTW the "help" look is the demon trying to draw you in and get you to open yourself up to it, don't fall for it!
Acknowledging the demon is the worst thing you can do. Much love :.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
