It may be God's will for me to visit a psyche ward again.
I hope not but it's also true that a lot of Kingdom work can be done effectively there.
My issue before was a lack of knowledge about obedience and the weapons of effective spiritual warfare.
I describe psychosis as a very heightened state of spiritual awareness. This can be for better or for worse. The penalty for messing up in this state is severe demonic oppression. But the reward for getting it right are great Kingdom gains.
Pagan cultures try to get to this state on purpose. Some are called Shamans and Healers.
But under the Lordship of Christ, I think a psyche ward may on fact be the safest place for someone like that to be.
I'm not a fan of hospital visits. It costs money. It worries my family.
But not my will, Lord.
--- Naomi

Sister, Jesus is able to deliver from those oppressing spirits, and I just encourage you to keep seeking the Lord for your deliverance. Do the best you can to obey and follow Jesus, and repent of anything you do wrong and the Lord will be faithful to forgive and cleanse. When we take ownership for the things that we do wrong, that are against God's will and righteousness, then we are in a good position to receive what we need from Him....I sometimes think repentance is the best kept secret in Christendom. It often takes time and perseverance, it's not always a quick thing because we get tested and tried, the proving of our faith......but keep fighting the good fight and trust and believe that one day the Lord will grant the deliverance that you need. He might arrange it so that you happen to cross paths with someone who has a gift of deliverance/healing or He can do it sovereignly Himself, but one way or the other...we just know and believe that He is ABLE.
One thing about spiritual things that I might share in case it's helpful....is the Lord gave me to understand that ultimately all power belongs to Him....shamans and witches or anyone can tap into power that God created but they do it of their own will and handle it with their own hands of flesh and that is what opens the door to the devil/demons, and they can become oppressed by them as a consequence/judgment. Remember how the priests were only allowed to carry the ark of God's presence with poles (signifying His Spirit) otherwise they would die. We just cannot be presumptuous and try to handle spiritual power with our own will and ways, it's not our power to handle, it's God's.....but only when we are being led by God's Holy Spirit and He is with us then we are protected. It's like, we are His servants, He is not ours. People do commit spiritual sins...spiritual wickedness in high places...I think it's more common than most are aware.....but if any are aware that they have done so, they can come to Jesus and acknowledge those kinds of sins to the Lord, repent of it, and ask Him to forgive and cleanse of the consequences/judgments that came about because of it. Be encouraged in the Lord Naomi.

Be encouraged in the Lord Naomi. If I were to go back now, it wouldn't be as a shaman. It would be as a Saint under God's authority. That is the most important thing. I definitely was not in full repentance in the past. As a result, my walk with God was either extremely good or extremely bad. But Ive come to trust in God's will. The most powerful thing is to be fully submitted to His will. I prayed for the mental health system in America. It may be that His answer is for me to do spiritual battle in a psyche ward again--- only this time completely under His Lordship. This isn't my goal. But I'm happy to do it, if by submitting to it, many might be saved and the kingdom of darkness pushed back.

But I'm happy to do it, if by submitting to it, many might be saved and the kingdom of darkness pushed back. I came to realize that repentance is one huge spiritual weapon in the battle....doesn't mean condemnation for the believer, but it just means taking ownership of our behaviour or thoughts, etc and acknowledging, confessing them to the Lord. It prepares the way for the Lord to come in and turf the devil out, praise God!
