Possession by a Dark spirit is very real. Exorcism or removal of such spirits is also very real. Both are rarely, truly understood.  With 28 years of experience involving the exorcism of Dark spirits, the Truth of Spirit explains how and why some people can become possessed by Dark spirits.

Films portray possessed people to be squirming on the floor, frothing at the mouth, having seizures, and shouting obscenities etc., and portray that these are the only identifying/main characteristics of a Dark spirit's presence.


It would be incorrect to say that 'some' people who are in a state of possession do not behave like this, as some people do exhibit these physical signs of a Dark spirit's presence. That said, such cases are extremely rare.


The reality is that “Possession” by spirits is usually more subtle and a person may not be aware of the spirits presence until it becomes apparent that their behaviour has changed noticeably or radically.

To 'Possess' according to the English Dictionary means, 'to have power over' and this is exactly what a possessing spirit seeks; to have power over a person or to control them.


Possession by a spirit does not mean that it resides or lives within your actual body and becomes a part of you, as this is something it cannot do, as there is only room within a person's physical framework for one spirit and that is their own. The possessive spirit begins its possession by initially drawing close to you and then eventually through the establishing of a close attachment with you, can take control.


Spirits of this intention operate within a person's Aura or personal energy field, as this is the closest a spirit can get to a physical body. Everybody has an Aura, which is the energy field around every human and animal body and which although being invisible, can be seen by certain people through Clairvoyance and photographed using Kirlian imaging cameras.​

Once inside the aural field, the spirit can then begin to affect, influence, and control the person. This is possession, as the spirit is now as close as it can possibly be to you and is able to influence you to do exactly what it wants you to do.


To understand the earlier statement that there is only room for one spirit within our bodies and that our own spirit, consider the Biblical account in Mark (5: 1-13). A man who was possessed by spirits had them removed by Jesus, who was told that their name was Legion, with the approximate number of spirits removed being 2000. There are no possibility of 2000 spirits occupying the body as in every case, these spirits drew close and became attached to the aura of the person, and therefore, were able to influence, control and possess him.

The human body is animated by a person's spirit which when a person goes to sleep naturally withdraws and remains detached from the physical body until the sleep period is over. It logically follows, therefore, that no one could ever enjoy a night’s sleep if any other spirit were present within a physical body on a permanent basis, for the state of sleep would be an impossibility.


Spirit possession therefore does not mean the spirits occupy, live, or reside within your physical body, but possess you by their intense influence and proximity to you through being in your aura.

People who are under a Dark spirit's influence may display outward signs of that possession, with their behaviour pattern being of a disturbing nature. Physical signs pinpoint the problem as being possession and are the same in nature as they were in the time of Jesus. In Mark 9 v 17 - 21, we have recorded here obvious signs of possession by a Dark spirit, as foaming at the mouth, gnashing of teeth, being physically rigid, rolling around on the floor and convulsing, all indicate a spirit’s presence. Possessed people display a tendency to be on their own, to be isolated, away from other people and are frequently seen to seek solitude amongst cemeteries and graveyards, appearing to or claiming to speak with the dead that are buried there. Possessed people have a desire and an attraction to dwell in such places, drawing comfort from such areas, which is not normal behaviour, and is one which indicates a Dark spirit's presence. The Possessed person can display the desire to remove clothing, harm themselves at times, either with knives or indeed any form of weapon or harm others who attempt to approach them, and caution should always be exercised in all dealings with such people. As it is the Dark spirit that is in control of the person possessed any person under a spirit's control will find great difficulty in resisting the instructions, they receive from it. A person who has true Clairvoyance will be able to see if a Dark spirit is present with a person who displays any of the signs of possession. Physical signs of possession are generally rare, with there being more people influenced and possessed by Dark spirits who do not display any of the signs in any way at all. It would defeat the Dark spirit world's goal if all people influenced by them displayed such obvious signs, for it would be an easier task for those people who have the authority from God to remove such spirits, to identify those in need of help and remove the offending spirit. Such spirits are far more organised and work in a subtle way so that their influence is not so easily recognised and dealt with, it being the reason many people who are possessed are more likely to be unaware of it. The Real Signs of a Spirit Possession We see and hear of terrible crimes being committed all over the world, such as terrorist attacks, mass shootings, horrific murders, theft, armed robbery, and children being abused. We wonder why these people behave in this way and do such awful things? All people who are responsible for terrible crimes are fully aware that their actions are wrong and yet they still go ahead and commit such atrocities. The initial thought and desire for such atrocious behaviour stems not from the perpetrator, but from the direct influence and impression given them from the Dark spirit world. Dark spirits are constantly at work in attempting to feed us the thoughts that could result in us embarking on a wrongful course of action or deed. These spirits sow the seeds within the minds of those they can impress. All people are given free will from God, it being a person's individual decision alone to succumb to their influence or not, making us therefore responsible in God's eyes and the justice system if we do.

How Dark Spirits Gain Control: The 7 Negatives

Spirits who wish to possess you have to be allowed to do so, in effect a door opened so that they may enter into your life. Spirits achieve this by drawing close to a person and implanting thoughts or ideas into that person's mind, endeavouring to make all manner of serious wrongdoing appear desirable.

The 7 Seven Negatives are:

  1. Extremely violent, abusive and supernatural films/books (spirits, werewolves, vampires, witches etc).

  2. Excessive Alcohol consumption

  3. Recreational Drugs

  4. Gambling

  5. Pornography

  6. Divination and fortune telling (Tarot reading, tea leaves, Runes, Crystal Balls, Pendulums, Palmistry etc).

  7. Ouija Boards (can be known as fairy boards, angel boards) and witchcraft/ Occult organisations.

One way these spirits achieve this is by implanting into a person's mind the thought or idea of reading books or watching films centred around violence, abuse, or sexual perversion. This also includes any media deemed supernatural such as spirits, vampires, werewolves, witches, zombies or demons. Some examples are: Insidious, paranormal activity, the Nun, teen wolf, the vampire diaries, the omen and the exorcist.

 

Using these tools people are influenced by these spirits to find such conduct entertaining and to eventually view it as normal and acceptable forms of relaxation.

Once this thought or idea is implanted to read or watch such material and an acceptance of it is gained, the Dark spirits will then attempt to develop the desire for you to act out in real life what you have found entertaining. It may however be that the reader or viewer of such material will not actually act indecently or commit any crime themselves, or even feel that their actions are unacceptable in any way.

 

As a person's Aura or energy field around their body emits energies that are related to their lifestyle, behaviour, or actions, any negative action or behaviour is also imprinted on that emanating energy field.

A person who therefore reads or watches such unacceptable negative material will emit energy that will be negative, and which could prove to be disruptive or harmful to another person of a more positive aura. Due to this negative energy, people who feel affected by it may have to distance themselves from the person emitting the energy.

 

​Possessing spirits, therefore, may not see a person they have targeted commit a terrible act, but have succeeded in causing disruption and discord through the effects of that person's negative energy, which to these Spirits is success in itself.

One sure way that a person can open the door and allow for the attraction and possession of a Dark spirit is due to the way in which we live our lives or the lifestyle we hold, our behaviour and the way we treat ourselves and others too.

 

A spirit may draw close to an alcoholic or drug addict or gambler because that spirit thrives on this sort of negative pursuit and will become attached in time to a person behaving in this manner.

 

Dark spirits are attracted by many things we as humans indulge or engage in. Therefore, if we are greedy, lustful, display anger or hatred, are violent, immoral, or we cheat, steal, are selfish, jealous, addicted to drugs, alcohol, gambling, we are open to the influence of a Spirit.

These Spirits are attracted by such negative conduct and will after drawing close to a person of this nature, encourage them to become even more involved in the negative pursuit. Even though the negative spirit does not have a physical body, the spirit can feel the effects of the drugs, alcohol or gambling through the persons aura. People under spirit possession will gradually become totally consumed with the activity and it will dominate their life.​

Personal Behaviour and Lifestyle Choices: 2. Excessive alcohol consumption, 3. Recreational drugs and  4. Excessive gambling

5. Pornography

Dark spirits are attracted to those who engage in watching or reading pornographic media. These spirits are attracted to the negative conduct and will encourage the person to become more engaged in this activity to the point that it consumes and dominates their life and the person becomes addicted.

This kind of activity will attract spirits known as an Incubus who prefer females and a Succubus who prefer males.  They gain power slowly over time as more the person indulges in this type of viewing or activity, they take the energy from the person. They also encourage feelings of lust and if there is enough energy built up, this this can also attract the spirit of lust. The ultimate goal of these spirits is to have sex with you.

6. Divination and Fortune Telling

Through the practice of divination of the future, a person can make conditions favourable for a Dark spirit to be attracted to them and ultimately possess them. If you engage in the use of any instrument for divination of the future or foretelling of the future, you are at serious risk of possession by Dark spirits.


Tarot Cards, Runes, Crystal Balls, Palmistry, Horoscopes or indeed any type of instrument or method for the purposes of telling the future are all to be avoided, as they are instruments used by the negative spirits to influence you away from God and what is good.


​Divination is NOT a Gift from God


The user of such instruments may not realise that they are being influenced and are under the direction and control of a negative spirit, as they may feel that their information is in fact beneficial, giving help, counsel, and advice to distressed people. This is what negative spirits want diviners to believe and it is hard for many people actively engaged in divination to accept this.


However, it is seen often that they impart information to the recipient that on reflection, they would rather have not received. Diviners can inform people seeking the future of a devastating truth that the person will have to live with. Such insight is of a negative nature, for the initial impact and effect such information has on the recipient is never good.


A person will not find it uplifting or beneficial, as they tend to become consumed with worry or sadness as what they know lies ahead. All divination which seeks the future is not of God and must be rejected.


As God gives free will to all people, even he does not know our ultimate decisions in life, so it must be appreciated that to inform people who seek out information about future events that may alter that free will choice must be wrong. It therefore follows that no one should ever influence another person's decision-making process through insight into the details concerning the future life of that person.


The difference between a prophecy and divination is that if you ask for the future and are actively seeking it out, it is divination. If you are not seeking out the future information, it is a prophecy and is therefore safe.


It must also be known that the future teller can also be receiving incorrect information from the negative spirit. As the diviner believes it to be a good spirit, they will impart this information to the person which can have a negative effect on the person, not knowing if the information is true or not.

Divination of the future therefore is not a Spiritual Gift of God and Dark spirits control all divination of the future. A Dark spirit will eventually possess any person who engages in divination of the future, for the insight into future events comes directly from them and not from God.

One way that Dark spirits are attracted, and which puts you in grave danger of severe possession by them, is using the Ouija Board also known as a fairy/angel board and other names.

 

The Ouija Board is a communicational device that attracts Dark spirits who are intent in harming you. Although initial use of such a board appears to be informative and innocent, its use must be avoided at all costs.

 

Dark spirits operating through the board usually lull you into a false sense of security, initially gaining your attention and appreciation through the interesting and accurate information it dispenses. Once these spirits have your attention and you begin to use the board regularly, you will then find information being dispensed that you wish you had not received.

 

The Ouija Board allows direct communication with the Dark spirit world whose agenda is to bring about your downfall. Although, you may possibly be able to use the board for some time before the damaging information is imparted. Using the Ouija board, you give the Dark spirits complete control over your life, with dire consequences.

 

Using the board, spirit possession can take on other forms as a means for these spirits to enter your life. You may through the boards use for example be subjected to visions or apparitions of a disturbing kind or attract the activities of sexual spirits known as Incubus or Succubus. Some users experience severe mental health problems after consulting the Ouija Board, which is because of the spirits influence and impression upon them.

 

The Ouija Board is a means to communicate with the lower spirits and is never used by the higher Spirits of God, it being an instrument of Dark spirits and a sure way to allow them to possess you.

Witchcraft and Occult organisations: 

Cults or occultist organisations who give allegiance to the Dark and his Dark spirits must be avoided at all costs, as their very creed and conduct is geared to the opposite of all that is good. A belief and lifestyle that welcomes Dark spirit influences into your life is one that can lead to spirit possession.

 

Covens and individuals who call themselves witches who openly admit to engaging in the rituals of witchcraft must be avoided, as these people are working with the Dark spirit world and any contact with these groups will be detrimental to you. This also includes anything that engages in rituals with the Dark spirit world such as satanists, shamans, voodoo practisers, black magic, and any other group or form of spells/magic.

 

If you observe anything arising from the actions of such groups that is of a negative nature, then reject that organisation and its beliefs irrespective of their alleged allegiances.

 

Jesus talks of this in (Matthew 7: 15-23) stating that it is impossible for a good tree to produce bad fruit, and similarly a bad tree to produce good fruit. Jesus meant that if you are engaged in a work that is good and wholesome, it can only display to all people that fact, for only good effects will be seen. Similarly, Jesus states that if your works or actions are not good and righteous then the fruit of your labour will be bad and observed by all as bad.

 

Use discernment therefore in dealing with such individuals or organisations for everyone shows by their actions and works who they are true followers of.

7. Direct Communication from the Ouija Board and Witchcraft:

Negative Energy:

 

Dark spirits can eventually possess you through a link with certain objects that come into your ownership, and which contain negative energy even if you have not partaken in one of the 7 negatives. Jewellery, furniture, clothing, and books are just some of the items that can house suitable negative energy which can be used by Dark spirits to enter a person's life and possess them.

 

There is also no limit to the objects that can store such negative energy. Every living person continually emits energy, having around their physical body an energy field that is called an Aura. Depending on the way we conduct ourselves and what activities we engage in, will be the determining factor as to whether we emit positive energy or negative energy. All our possessions absorb the energy that we personally emit, soaking it up like a sponge does with a liquid, so that anything we own will have imprinted upon it our own personal energy whether positive or negative.

If a person has borrowed or bought a previously owned object whether it is an item of jewellery, furniture, clothing or a book, the energy contained and emanating from that object will be that of the previous owner(s).

If the emanating energy is of a strong negativity, then Dark spirits are able to draw close to the proximity of that object as the negative energy allows them to link with it, form an attachment and enter your life. Once the spirit has entered it is then able to influence all in possession of the object, or all those in proximity to it. As it is the object that houses the negative energy, it follows that whoever has ownership of the object will be the person to experience the problems related to negative spirit activity.

It is necessary to have such negative energy removed from the object by a person who has the ability to do so, which then serves to end the spirit's means of attachment, and it will leave. It is not necessary to destroy such objects, only the negative energy housed within it.

The Truth of Spirit as part of its spiritual work removes negative energy from such identified objects. Any object that is purchased new will not house any energy at all, as it has not been owned by any person and will not in any way be able to serve the purpose of attracting Dark spirits.

 

How to repel Possessive Spirits:

 

If you live your life in a truly upright, honest, and Godlike manner, then you will have nothing to fear from the Dark spirit world. With such a spiritual outlook and lifestyle that identifies you as a follower of God, Dark spirits will be repelled by you, and they will never come near you (James 4:7). Dark Spirits always try to impress you to think wrong thoughts or engage in wrongful pursuits and is therefore for every individual to resist them otherwise spirit possession will be a reality.

 

By not making conditions favourable and not engaging in the means to attract for Dark spirits to enter your life you will be safeguarded. Furthermore, develop the "Fruits of the Spirit" of God which are: love, joy, kindness, goodness, faith in God, mildness, and self-control. Then, Dark spirits will distance themselves from you (Galatians 5: 22).

Always seek to do that which is right and honourable, living a life that is full of goodness and light, for if you do the spirits who are in spiritual darkness will never be able to assail you. (Ephesians 5: 8-21)
