How Demons Actually Work

  • To clear up some misunderstandings regarding demonic activity, Fr. Mark-Mary offers a short crash course on the matter. There are four main kinds of demonic activity:
    Temptation: when the devil subtly invites a soul to sin
    Infestation: when there is demonic activity in a place
    Oppression: when demonic activity starts outside the soul and enters within
    Possession: when the demonic directly enters one’s internal will and intellect
    This video does not go into detail about demonic activity, but simply aims to contextualize it, and show how the demonic confirms that the Catholic Faith is the true Faith.
    Since an exorcist regularly visits his friary to confirm and strengthen the faith of the friars, Fr. Mark-Mary has witnessed demonic activity. He says it’s nothing to worry about if you just know who you are and who God is. If you live in that reality and remain in the state of grace, the demonic cannot have power over you.
    Throughout the New Testament and the history of the Church, we see Christ and the saints fighting against the demonic. St. Therese, St. Padre Pio, and St. John Vianney encountered evil spirits quite a bit.
    Acknowledging the reality of the demonic-and seeing how demons respond to the name of Jesus and Mary, to holy water and miraculous medals-can help our faith, but we can also become inordinately interested in it. So we can talk about demonic possession, but let’s not emphasize it.
    After all, the devil’s most destructive work is done in the dark, through subtle temptations, through secret invitations to lust and the other deadly sins. Defeat these temptations by just saying no, and asking God to deliver you from temptation. Ask Mary and St. Michael the Archangel to help you, frequent the sacraments, trust in God’s grace, and demons will be powerless in your life.

      The answer lies solely in this bro. You must do the rosary IN combination with mental prayer. 15-20 mins of rosary with 15 mins of mental prayer every day will get you extremely far. Try that out. Once you get there. The whole goal is to eventually do it 365 days a year.I had weeks where I did 3 days a week and I was free from it for a good time. But eventually I fell back into it. When I did it 6 or 7 days, it worked really well for ~ 2-3 months.

      I will pray for your recovery. These things aren't easy. But, I tend to think that whichever is "more addicting" depends on the individual. For example, I easily quit masturbation and pornography, which I had done most days since I hit puberty (by 5th grade; I believe I hit puberty a little early), quite easily. Yet, I have been drinking 2 or 3 years and I haven't been able to stop. I don't drink a lot at a time, but I do everyday, and I am having a very hard time stopping. I believe it depends on the individual, as I previously stated.

      Pray for wisdom & discernment, and eyes to see. Once I started doing that, I started seeing a bigger picture. I started noticing that when I’d be gossiping or fussing about someone else, something similar that I do or have done would immediately come to mind. Then it progressed to me having a broader understanding of what others might be going through. And I’d have moments when I’d be doing something that was frustrating to someone else and I’d hear this voice going, “See, this is what Jane Doe was going through when you were talking about her. You just didn’t know it.” Everybody wants mercy but few offer it. I try to remember that.

      In most cases a possessed person HAS committed mortal sin or is not in a state of Grace which is what facilitated the possession. You cannot become possessed if you are truly remaining in a state of Grace (there are extremely rare cases of saints and victim souls who did become possessed in obedience to God’s will to obtain great graces for the Church and poor souls).

    I've had demonic attacks before. As soon as I came home after confirmation classes, my ex immediately texted me and this happened straight after I got home from church, and my ex hasn't spoken to me for so long. When my ex texted me, he was suggesting we would do sexual acts. Whenever I'm serious about my faith, I experience spiritual warfare and unwanted thoughts, I get blasphemous, horrible thoughts that are unintentional and compulsive and I hate it so much. EVERY time I get closer to God and try to obey his word and turn from my sins, suddenly more guys are trying to get with me, and it ALWAYS happens when my faith is stronger. There is no doubt that demons are setting up a trap for me. I'm still struggling right now with demonic attacks, and temptation coming from demons.

    One Christian (non-Catholic) female blogger/writer/speaker I follow is a former porn addict. I'm not a former porn addict, but I really enjoy her perspectives because I've found her principles extremely helpful in facing all sorts of sins, temptations and issues with your own self-image. She released a piece awhile ago about what to do when sexual or pornographic images are stuck in your head after you've repented and cut off the activity. First, she acknowledges to God that she doesn't want to dwell on this, she regrets it, and she never ever wants to do anything like it again. She also brought in the fact that regardless of spiritual influence-good or bad-your brain is a machine that adapts to the habits and decisions that you've made. It's a learned behavior, and a behavior is especially going to stick in your brain if it's associated with pleasure. Demons tempt you, but your brain is NOT a demon. God designed it, and it's designed to remember, facilitate and circulate whatever it's exposed to. Her approach to facing these memories or temptations when they arise is to remember these facts. The brain says "I need to feel good, so let's do ________________," and if the fill-in-the-blank is sinful, the response is "We could, but we'll go here (something good and/or holy) instead, because this will be better for us in the long run, and it will be what honors God." I found it the perfect balance between staying grounded and giving reverence to God. Thanks, Father Mark!

When it happened to me I did not know that opening chackra's is dangerous, I did not believed in God and I had no real concept between good and bad/evil or what is sin. One day the demon was next wall in my room. I was paralysed that I see this and felt the pure hate towards me. I was thinking that it will attack me and in this second it happened - do you mean this? That I was "weak" in my mind and I did not prayed or commanded it to leave in Jesus name? I did not know nothing about. At that time I was involved in joga, chackra's, horoscopes, tarot and numerology - and this is sinfull. So I thing that this practise (sin) means that you open yourself to it and the enemy begins messing with you. Before possesion I was oppressed (thoughts), possesion is more dangerous. I think that God allowed to happen to me and that je uses my sins to show me the truth because I identified myself as truthseeker (numerology number 7)...and he used everything I know to help me out. But the demon was out after months of prayers, I gained faith in Jesus thought reading bible = hearing the good news. God can change everything what happens to you for your own good.

I remember I was thinking I could not anymore and I was literally crying and asking for help as "if Jesus helped people in evangelium, he can help me too"...than I confessed once again and prayed together with a pastor (deliverance prayer on-line)...I would like to say it was in the beginning and I did not have a religious background. So, did you confess everything? Are you sincerelly sorry for everything you did? Do you have faith in Jesus? I think catholic have described way how to pray for forgivenes too.👍 So I would recommend to pray to our savior every day, humble yourself and every day ask for deliverance...sometimes it took time.

I found that if you try to talk to an alcoholic or drug addict about this, or point out how evil their behavior is, they will deny being possessed. I tell them that the truth is being hidden from them and they need to order whatever evil is inside them to leave. They're weak. I know a man, a life long alcoholic and drug user, who is ill and not expected to live more than a few months. We're all trying to get him to confess his sins and accept Christ. He hints at it but won't say he will. Whatever has hold of him is stronger than he is. We pray for him.

      Those demons, that your boyfriend has in some way permitted to possess himself,
      they are after you, it's their number 1 mission currently.
      they have already succeeded in possessing him and aren't wasting any mire effort in that direction
      even if you do what you ought to, separate yourself entirely ( momentarily or indefinitely) the demons will simply 'follow' and take hold of another 'easy mark' that is in your company.
      How does this stop?
      First realize that it never stops, demons are ever present everywhere - imagine a large school of fish and we all are just standing in the middle of it.
      they simply are doing what they do until an opportunity allows them to enter.
      That is what must stop,
      you must stop
      providing these opportunities.
      i understand that by now your thinking
      'but i'm not doing that, i'm a good person etc '
      i have no doubt in that, but that isn't what prevents this
      if you are allowing your emotions of despair, vengeance, rage, sadness, hopelessness to control your actions and tongue - your are allowing the demons attentions.
      we all feel these things, don't let those feelings then generate those emotions ( these two aren't the same thing )
      feelings & thoughts we can't control those
      emotions & actions those we can

    We were once very privileged to receive the Relics of St Therese of Lisieux into our Parish. My son was very young, about 6 years old. He went to a Catholic school and this Parish was on the premises. We stopped in on the way to school to say a quick prayer and I was telling him about this Saint. Someone called him up onto the Altar, gave him a rose which had been placed on the Relics and told him to give it to me and tell me that St Therese will bless me. I had never met this person before. I placed this rose on the front seat of my car where it remained all day. When leaving work I was reversing out of the driveway and saw a black shadow standing at the corner of the office block, when my car came near, it showed fear and fled. It was a spirit shadow, not in the form of a person. I felt it’s fear, yet my peace and a confidence, if you will, at the same time. I had this knowing in my mind that it fled because of the rose. I had no experience with demons before. I was not educated in their workings or what they could do to you, other than the small amount we are exposed to in the general practices of our Faith, but when this happened, I just knew what it was, what I saw and what had just happened. I worked for a Jewish lawyer at that time and I know his mother, who visited the office frequently, used to call on a fortune teller. I thought I would share this story for interest sake. Even when we are unaware, things may happen to us but look how our Lord blessed me and I am merely an ordinary Catholic, not a nun or anything like that. I encourage everyone to put on the Armour of God every day. Ephesians 6:11-17.

      The session we had is called minor deliverance session in 2015. From then own, I am not sensitive anymore to spiritual realm.
      Preparations before session:
      -if you can, daily mass
      -confessions every 2 weeks
      - pray rosary daily
      - forgive people, be generous (give food to strangers)
      - remove occult beliefs ( horoscope), concept of luck ( lucky colors etc)

I have never before felt so scared but I will tell you one thing as soon as I started to say out loud 'The blood of Jesus and that Jesus was my Lord" That evil presence left my room. God would never allow a child of God to be touch by any of that. He protects us through the blood he shed for us on the cross. Thank you Holy Father.

Prayer is the only hope. Many people do not realize that they are pawns to act out in a malicous manner toward a child of God. They exhibit hate that they do not know comes from the demonic side. I really feel pity for these lost souls being used as vessels of hate for satans work. They do not even know where their feelings of hate even spring from.

    I went through most of my life without any exposure to the supernatural (other than God), and then a couple of years ago I moved into a building that was demon haunted. I am ashamed to say that I freaked out. Of course immediately I turned to God and prayed, but I was scared. And it was not just me. I was hearing very very disturbing things but other people in the same building were SEEING things. I always asked God to protect me from seeing anything, and I never did. But whatever was there decided to mess with me, and finally I went to my pastor and he calmly reminded me that this was nothing new, that Jesus encountered and expelled demons all the time, and that I could do the same using His name. That's what I did, and the demons fled. Later I learned that decades ago, there was a group of tenants who had a seance and conjured up a demon and ever since people have been witnessing all kinds of evil in that place. Even though the attacks ended for me, they did not for others, and I'm not going to lie: I was happy to leave that place. Just remember that Jesus' name is literally a weapon. You can use it to defend yourself.

My doctor told me it was some kind of brain misfire, some sort of weird state between dreaming and consciousness but... I never really believed it. But I didn't go to medical school. What happened in that place though was DEFINITELY evil and monstrous and terrifying. What was funny was nobody wanted to be the first to bring it up because they--and I--didn't want to seem crazy. There is a book waiting to be written, but I'm not ready yet.

      We had the same thing happen. Moved into a nice apt. Than one night the bedroom was black on black you could see a black cloud sooo black you couldn’t miss it. There was also a presence of evil! You could feel it!!
      My parents came over and the four of us who are all born again believers prayed over this room, but I just didn’t feel like it had left. We went to bed that night and I was asleep, all of a sudden my husband jumped up in bed and I said what’s wrong? He hadn’t been asleep so he wasn’t dreaming, he looked terrified as he stared at the closet door beside him. He said I was laying here and all of a sudden I saw this glowing hand coming out of the closet moving towards our bed. I was too scared to look, but it scared the life out of him and me when he told me. Then it disappeared and never returned that we saw. Eventually the black cloud hanging near the ceiling coming down to the middle of the room disappeared too. That was definitely a demonic force. It was so scarey and it scared us real bad. To this day I keep my closet door closed.
      I promise you on my dear grandmothers grave this is not a lie or a dream or an exaggeration it really happened!! We moved out of there as quickly as we could. 😳

      Jennifer Gallardo The reason that Hollywood does so many satanic, vampire, zombie, A.I. movies is because Hollywood is the seat of Lucifer/Satan/Baphomet. Hollywood is an extension of the CIA's MK-Ultra program (i.e. they use movies to control the minds of the public; the world). Research the word 'star' (as in fallen angels - when Lucifer and his angels fell to earth - falling stars/stars on the Hollywood walk of fame. The only way anyone gets a good part and fame including in the music business, they have to 'join the 'cult of Satan'. Check out Tamara Magadalene Lioness of Yeshua (warning! she lays it all out in very explicit detail - her research is tremendous).

      Mike what are those Psalms? I am under high level spiritual attack from them right now. It even seems to be inside the body. It's a daily battle sometimes couple times per day. I pray decades of the Rosary as only thing that gives a brief reprieve. I believe the Eucharist although it causes me nausea or physical discomfort to receive due to the spiritual attacks also gives me strength from God and a little peace. I seem to have opened portals so been recommended home blessing but think might take something stronger than that from specialist priest to break free. But I also know I need to find out God's will as Fr Ripperger says that God has authority over all spirits and it can't happen to us unless he gives it permissive will. Perhaps it's to test and purify us? But only priests have power given to them by God to deliver us from these evil spirits as Fr Ripperger exorcist priest says.

    Thank you for talking about that i had to learn a lot to free myself from demons that i got from drug addiction. I was an atheist for 28 years and the devil led me down every wrong spiritual way (hinduism, yoga, meditation, the occult) until i discovered Christ... I think the apostle Paul said it best, that it is often difficult to accept Jesus for people because of the simplicity of the gospel. That's what led me down all the wrong ways until i cried out to Jesus and he came to me with an angel in form of a white cloud. And back then I have never read the conversion of Saul.... But the same thing happened to me...

      @@paulbirkbeck1790 and the funny thing is that I read the "conversion of Saul" just recently where the same thing happens to Paul. I was really shocked when I read that. He was inside of a cloud of white light (I called it a fog but still...) which took away the pain and then I heard an audible voice from outside of my head not like in meditation talk to me and while he talked to me I saw an angel standing in my room. That was on the 29th of November 2014.... I made 1 video about it its called "my Christian Testimony"

    The biggest trick that the devil played on the world, is to make people believe, he isn’t real.
