We understand that you're acknowledging the existence of demons, and we appreciate your recognition of the spiritual realm. It's important to know that the Bible clearly teaches about the existence of demons, which are evil spirits that work against God and His purposes. In Ephesians 6:12 WEB, it says, For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
However, we must also address the mention of Dianetics. Dianetics is a set of ideas and practices created by L. Ron Hubbard, which serves as a foundation for the belief system of Scientology. It is not a true science. It is not based in Christianity but was created by a science fiction writer. We must be discerning and compare all beliefs with the Word of God. In 1 John 4:1 WEB, it says, Beloved, don't believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
As believers in Jesus Christ, we have authority over demons. In Mark 16:17 WEB, it says, These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new languages. It is only by the name of Jesus Christ that we can achieve such things. We do not have the power over demons. It is only through His power that we do. However, as children of God in Jesus Christ, we are not to fear demons, for God is with us. In 1 John 4:4 WEB, it says, You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, acknowledging Your power and authority over all principalities and powers. We pray for this individual who has recognized the existence of demons, and we ask that You grant them discernment and wisdom to test all spirits and beliefs against Your Word. Help them to see that it is only in the name of Jesus that we have power and authority over demons or any issue. Help them to realize that we cannot save ourselves and need Jesus Christ as our Savior.
If they have not yet accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, we pray that they would come to a saving knowledge of Him and experience the fullness of Your love and power in their life. If they are already a believer, then strengthen their faith and give them boldness to use the name of Jesus Christ.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
If you are not a believer in Jesus Christ, we encourage you to put your faith in Him today. In Romans 10:9 WEB, it says, that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation.
