How to Break Demonic Dreams

How to Break Demonic Dreams

A request to my Youtube channel, knowjesusknowpeace:

My sister has Satanic dreams almost every night. She says she doesn't have good dreams. Either it's a Satanic dream or she doesn't dream at all. How can she stop this on-going cycle?

This question challenges all Christians, and all dreamers from every philosophical and theological position. Two main actions immediately come to mind. Before discussing the course of action to be taken, understanding the root causes should be understood. Not understanding the cause of nightmares or demonic dreams does not reduce the effectiveness of the following efforts.

Causes of Demonic Dreams

1. Satan and demons attack without cause or justification. Sometimes the best course is to “resist the devil”, as James, the brother of Jesus, tells us. The full statement is, “Obey God, resist the devil, and he will flee from you” (James 4:7) So, James prescribes a two-part remedy. First, obey God. Second, resist the devil. Obeying God means obeying His commandments. You can find those at Exodus 20:3-17. With man, it is not possible to obey these commands. Even years of success fail with just one infraction. However, "with God, all things are possible". A common misunderstanding in the church is the interpretation of "grace". Grace is not a free pass to wonton sin. Grace is the power, in God, to overcome the world. 
2. A second cause of demonic dreams is a family curse. If your great-great-great grandpappy sold moonshine and that ‘shine was poisonous, he knew it and sold it anyway… and someone perished, this can be cause for a family curse. Modern science recognizes the effect of family curses. Science calls it “genetic traits”. They don’t really understand the cause, they just see the effects and create the best explanation they can within their philosophical limitations. If your sister and your mother or father, and some grandparents also have reported episodes of demonic dreams, this can be the root cause: a generational curse.If the same malady or disease follows your family generation to generation, pray for the Holy Spirit to reveal the cause to you, and how to break it permanently.
3. The third major origin of demonic attack is ownership or possession of cursed items. The item basically serves as a welcome mat to demons. A preacher in New York in 2010 told a story of casting out a “demon of Karate” from a doctor. She had delivered him the previous year. He repented and quit martial arts. However, the demon manifested a year later in extreme outbursts of anger and displays of great strength (he lifted a massive, solid oak table with no effort). The root cause: he had kept his training gi and black belt displayed in a glass case in the office of his medical practice. Once the last vestiges were discarded, and a second renunciation made, the man was set free. Some common anchors for demonic activity are rock music CDs, trance music, Buddha statues (even tiny ones), drug paraphernalia, and otherwise harmless items with demons or demonic symbols drawn onto them (Pokemon, for example).
4. A fourth cause can be an unrighteous activity of the target. The person being tormented may be doing something that forms a wrong lifestyle. It can be as simple as gossiping or as violent as performing abortions.
5. Another cause of demonic activity results from wrong associations. People who regularly spend time with murderers expose themselves to the very real risk of becoming a murderer. The same goes for hanging out with the sexually immoral, those who use vulgar speech, thieves, drug users, and etcetera. An audio recording of Win Worley in the 1980’s explains how he cast out a demon of “mind control” from a young man. The youth had never practiced mind control himself. However, he had two friends who did dabble in it briefly. Though he rejected their offer to teach him what they knew, the demon claimed a right because the young man continued his friendships with the two who taught themselves mind control. Proverbs 13:20 "He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed."

How to Break Demonic Dreams

Breaking a string of demonic dreams sometimes is instantaneous. Other times, days of prayer and effort seem to yield no results. However, the following techniques have been shown to produce results:

1. Cease performing any wrong or immoral activity. You can remove gossip from your life, for example, if every time you hear some bad info on someone, you insist on praying for them. This worked for me! The next time a gossiper stops you to download the 4-1-1 on Mary Cranston’s life issues, say, “Oh, that devil sure is hitting our friend hard. Let’s pray!” Start the prayer immediately while gossipy Sue stares in amazement. This is super effective!
2. Break unhealthy relationships. Your friends who play Dungeons and Dragons must go. Those high school buddies who smoke pot and sell uppers- they are a spiritual curse in your life. All your girlfriends that go to nightclubs for one-night stand hook-ups, they are anchors of unhealthy relationship spirits.
3. Search your home for demonic icons or anything that a demon would claim is unholy. When I did this, I literally searched drawer by drawer and box by box. I made several trips to a dumpster with boxes and boxes of books, toys, cards, things with strange images, questionable music and movie CDs, and anything that questionable.

Even after all this, a demon might remain. They sometimes claim an unrepentant heart. To defeat this final stand, repent. Apologize to God for these unhealthy things.

Finally, command every evil spirit that entered your life because of any of the old things to be gone. “Go, and do not return.”

For more information on how to pray to defeat demonic action, visit www.theelijahchallenge.org and listen to the free one-hour video teaching. William Lau covers a lot of scripture in one hour. He lays out a comparison of how we were taught to pray in church versus how the apostles and Jesus prayed to cast out sickness and demons.

No matter who you are, or what religion you claim on government forms, make a clear, unequivocal statement, “I do NOT want these dreams. I command all sources of dark dreams to be gone, remove themselves from my place of sleeping, and to depart immediately, and never return.”
