When you’re under an attack, typically it’s all an orchestrated event with an intent on your life and purpose. There are prominent ways to identify a witchcraft scheme or someone who’s under a witchcraft influence (bewitchment). The primary objective of bewitchment has a hold on one’s mind, your perception of spiritual attack’s all psychological warfare. To disrupt, steal, kill, distract, confuse or block your advancement in any area of your life.
When you are aware of how witchcraft attacks, you can expose it with the light of God’s Word and break its powers. Principalities release the power of witchcraft. Just as the power of God—the Holy Spirit heals and delivers, the power of the enemy witchcraft brings on sickness and otherwise oppresses. Obviously, there is a spiritual force that the Bible is warning us about. It causes us to take leave of our senses. Witchcraft releases strong confusion against our minds so that Jesus is not the clear focus of our lives. Once that happens, we are more vulnerable to the vain imaginations the enemy whispers to our souls. We have a responsibility to know about this spiritual wickedness and guard ourselves against it. Let’s look at some of the symptoms of a witchcraft attack or witchcraft bewitchment. Keep in mind, all of these symptoms may not apply, and some of these symptoms could be due to other issues in your life. The key is to gain awareness of how prophetic witchcraft attacks so you can more easily discern it and break it.
- You Feel Like Your Being Monitored: When you feel like you’re being monitored or being watched by something or someone, it’s a very clear sign that your being bewitched or under witchcraft attack. Monitoring spirits work in the realm of witchcraft. They are spiritual peeping toms and evil eavesdroppers. They are satanic watchdogs. They are illegal informants. They are part of a demonic network that watches and reports information back to higher ranking demonic powers so they can devise plans to steal, kill, and destroy you. The basic objective of monitoring spirits is to ensure that they gather enough information about you and report back to the adversary. Monitoring spirits carry out their activities and mission through available human vessels, for a more detailed assessment about you, they could posses the vessels of your loved ones (i.e friends and family members) if they’re unaware of who they are. Monitoring spirits are like the devil’s private investigators. You can’t see them, but they can see and hear you. The devil is not omnipresent or omniscient, so he depends on monitoring spirits to gather information. Other names for monitoring spirits are familiar spirits, masquerading spirits, ancestral spirits, fowlers, besiegers, spirit spies, demonic messengers, and watchers.
- Frequent Crossroads & Obstacles: Spirits who’re assigned to monitor your every move and ensure you go no further than you ought to, have a skilled plan in orchestrating misfortunes, losses, blockages and barricades on our paths. When you feel like you stuck in between crossroads, not knowing where to go and what to do, feeling confused, anxious or paranoid uncontrollably, then it’s a clear sign that you’re being attacked by witches or a game plan of witchcraft is currently attacking you. Sometimes the attacks we get or experience could be traced down to our ancestry roots. Witches and spirits are not bound by time, but humans are. However our predecessors and ancestors were intertwined with certain kind of spirit worship when they were on the earthly plane. Some even got into an agreement in exchange for their wishes and heart desires to be granted. However when they took an oat of allegiance to a certain demonic spirit, they had no idea that the precaution would involve their generations to come. Meaning those who’re not yet born bears the burden of the consequences it may bring. Exodus 34:6-7 “And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,?Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.” Deuteronomy 5:9 - “Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,”
- Relationships, Friendships & Union Conflicts: When there’s no peace in your relationships with your partners, friends, spouse or family members it’s a clear sign that whatever’s going on between you and them is something beyond the natural, something more supernatural. Whatever that does not give you peace nor bring peace to your home should not make it close to your home. A toxic friendship or relationship isn’t from God, a painful union isn’t something that comes from God. It may seem as if you are going around the same mountain over and over again, making no progress in your natural life or your spiritual life. Wandering is directly associated with witchcraft as they’re also powered by spirits called “The Wandering Spirits” also spirits like “Familiar Spirits” play a crucial role in creating reoccurring issues and problems that may typically seem very much familiar to what you may have experienced in the past. Similarly “Ancestral Spirits” carry out a part of maintaining certain diabolical conditions within a certain jurisdiction. Things that may have happened to someone you knew since you were a child, in the same way happened to be something you’re experiencing for yourself. These spirits are not time bound, they thrive on bloodline covenants. They’re more interested and effective in the longevity at which a certain family experiences pain. For instance; reoccurring deaths, losses, breakups, sicknesses etc that arise within a certain time frame of a month, year or even years.
- Forgetfulness, Confusion, Negative Self-talk & Evil forebodings: A constant feeling of depression, confusion or loss of identity could either be medically related, please ensure you see a good health practitioner to assist you. Contrary to this, a constant attack on a man’s destiny is relatively tied to unbearable emotional and psychological burdens. Evil forebodings yield a ripple effect of behaviors on the human brain, You may feel like everyone is out to get you and you can’t trust anyone around you. You may tap into conspiracy-like theories about what people around you are doing or hiding from you. You may start abruptly withdrawing from people to protect yourself. Witchcraft makes you question yourself, question your friends & even question God. When witchcraft attacks, it’s difficult to make sound decisions. When strong confusion hits your mind, you can be sure it’s not coming from God. God is not the author of confusion but of peace, love & sound mind - 1 Corinthians 14:33. Witchcraft can make you confused about your life. You don’t know why you got so many prophecies that haven’t come to pass. You make decisions based on what you think God’s will is but you have a wrong understanding of God’s will because you bought into the lies of prophetic witchcraft.
- Poor Financial Decisions: Witchcrafts can work in the realm of hype. What is hype? Hype puts on a show to stir your emotions so they rise above the spiritual senses of your spiritual discernment. Haggai 1:6 reads: “Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.” When you sow into witchcraft, you are not going to see a return on that investment. Being unable to grasp a hold on your finances or being resourceful with your finances is as a result of a psychological manipulation of witchcraft. When people start attacking you and making false accusations against you in droves, it’s a sign the enemy is inspiring them to word-curse you and, in doing so, they hex you. This is not a random ill-mannered person or a single obnoxious e-mail. This is a flood of attacks, and you may begin to feel everything has turned on you.
- Sleep Paralysis: Sleep paralysis is “a complete temporary paralysis occurring in connection with sleep and especially upon waking,” according to The Merriam-Webster Dictionary. The medical world acknowledges natural and spiritual implications of sleep paralysis. In fact, “Sleep paralysis is a feeling of being conscious but unable to move. It occurs when a person passes between stages of wakefulness and sleep. During these transitions, you may be unable to move or speak for a few seconds up to a few minutes. Some people may also feel pressure or a sense of choking.” This could happen for natural reasons, but it could also be prophetic witchcraft. This can be beyond scary and defies the Word of God in your life, which promises you can dwell in safety even while you sleep (see Psalm 4:8). Despite all the persecution he endured, the prophet Jeremiah said his sleep was pleasant to him (see Jeremiah 31:26). So should yours be.
- Strange Lacerations on the Body: Have you ever woken up with little scratches all over your body in places your fingernails can’t reach, you may be dealing with a unique manifestation of prophetic witchcraft—lacerations on the body. These usually manifest as tiny scratches in batches that are still raw in the morning, or may be scabbed over. This is usually a sign of someone astral projecting into your room. Unlike God transporting a person in the spirit like he did Philip the evangelist (according to Acts 8:26-40). Astral projection is the domain of the supernatural realm’s dark side, according to The Seer’s Dictionary. Unlike Philip’s experience, astral projection is an at-will, out-of-body experience.
How to Break Witchcraft Attacks
If you are experiencing witchcraft attacks, you may be sure for you to know who or where it’s coming from. But remember this: You aren’t wrestling against flesh and blood but spirits and powers beyond you-even though the enemy is using flesh and blood against you. You are wrestling against a power. First you need to put on the whole armor of God and engage in the battle.
As described in Ephesians 6:14-17, Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
When it comes to witchcraft, we have to withstand it. The Amplified Bible says to “be firm in faith [against his onset—rooted, established, strong, immovable, and determined]” It’s easy enough to give in to witchcraft, especially if you don’t know what is attacking you. So again, when you feel like giving up, when you feel tired for no reason, when you have strong confusion, when you are fighting an intense battle in your mind, and when infirmities are manifesting, it could be witchcraft. Resist it at its onset. Cast it off. Submit yourself to God. “Resist the devil [stand firm against him] and he will flee from you” (James 4:7).
One of the pre mandatory steps to take when dealing with spiritual issues is to humble yourself to the lordship of Christ. Exalt his majesty, Thank Him for His blood. Rejoice in the Lord. Praise and worship carry breakthrough. That’s often all it takes to change the spiritual climate in your home. And worship is where we should start because He is worthy of our adoration.
If worship doesn’t break the witchcraft, take authority over it in the name above all names. Witchcraft has to bow at the name of Jesus. But make sure you don’t have any common ground with the enemy. Repent for any rebellion in your heart, and surrender your will anew to God. Remember, we are more than conquerors in Christ, and no weapon formed against us can prosper—not even witchcraft. Our job is to be spiritually discerning enough to catch the devil at his onset, resist him, rebuke him, and praise God for the victory.
