A lot of activities goes on in the spirit world everyday, many of which mankind is oblivious of but which have direct negative and positive impact on our lives. One of such activities is the activities of ghosts and spirits of the dead. Yes, I was a believer who didn't believe in reincarnation or ghosts or spirits of the dead, until I was made to go on an adventure or a journey that shattered and questioned everything I had believed. Do ghosts exists? The answer is they do. As a Christian I didn't believe this many years back until I begin to have encounters with them directly and indirectly.

1 Samuel 28.

Most of the encounters I've had with these ghosts over the years which are indirect encounters has been with mostly trapped souls of men and women who died.

What makes a ghost?

A person is made of spirit, soul and body. When we die, it is actually the body that dies, the soul and spirit lives on, in another dimension popularly called the afterlife which we can also call the spirit realm. The soul is the individual's consciousness, and the spirit entails the individual's personality, character and traits. When a person physically dies and the soul and spirit exits the body, they are met or faced with a new reality, another world that humans do not see, feel or touch except they are dead, this is the reality of the spirit world or the afterlife. In this afterlife, you can see humans but they can't see you. You can't touch them and they can't touch you either. You can hear them but they can't hear you. You can feel them, you can see their fears, their pains, you know all their secrets and the solution, you see what's ahead of them, you see all their challenges they are facing and that they will still face, you know who they are destined to be, but there is nothing you can do about all this because you're not permitted to speak with them or interact with them. Neither can they feel or see any of these about you.

The spirit and soul of a believer who is born again and sanctified by the Lord will surely ascend into heaven when they die without having to wander about in the spirit world or the afterlife after death. Most of the souls and spirits trapped in the afterlife are that of those who didn't accept Jesus or accepted him but still lived after their own hearts and their own ways. Also those who lived their lives in much ignorance and naivety or darkness may be trapped in the afterlife as well as those who died from abuse, oppression(both physical and spiritual), violence, wars, may be trapped too.

Anyone who commits suicide will land in hell without any chance of redemption or salvation. Commiting suicide is an act of wickedness against yourself and attack on your maker who gave you the soul and spirit, so you won't be spared nor go scot-free. If you need help, ask for it EARLY, not when you're overwhelmed by the problem or issue and you start having suicide thoughts. The enemy will not overcome you in Jesus name. Any christian who dies in an active sin despite all the chance, grace and time God gave them to stop but refused will end up in hell. Pastors who knows the truth but wouldn't say it or preach, do it or live it, will definitely rot in hell, because only the truth, the whole truth, can save souls. Teach your members to live truthfully, righteously and please God in everything they do. Those who refused to accept Jesus despite all the opportunities they have to do so will surely descend into hell after death. Those who didn't get the chance to hear the gospel may have their souls trapped in the afterlife after death. Those who believed in other gods and didn't have an encounter with Christ before they die may have their souls trapped in the afterlife till the day of judgement.

The Process Of Death.

The process of death begins with the gradual and systematic weakening of the spirit, soul and consciousness. The more the spirit and soul is weakened, the more the body is prone and susceptible to diseases, calamities, disasters, and death. (Proverbs 18:14). Having a strong spirit and consciousness (understanding, wisdom, enlightenment) meavs you're wary of foods and others things that could bring on diseases and illnesses. It means you're living your life as quiet and peaceful as possible so as to avoid any form of violence. It means you don't do things that can kill you or bring on severe challenges, damages, or consequences to your life. It's means you're living a healthy lifestyle. It means you're not putting yourself in position to be taken out by natural and unnatural forces at least not before your time.

A man must first die inside before he dies outside. We've heard of individuals who survived unthinkable traumas and bodily harm or hurt, including terminal diseases and physical harm but didn't die because they hadn't died inside. Most things that will kill you will kill you from inside, will harm your spirit. If unhealthy foods don't kill you, unhealthy and weakened spirits can kill you. You want to go to a place or follow someone somewhere but a voice inside you keeps screaming No! No! Don't! But you didn't listen. That's probably your soul and spirit perceiving an imminent danger. If you don't want to die, try to listen to the voice inside you but more importantly, try to hear the voice of the Spirit of God.

Can ghosts harm you? No, if you don't try to make contact with them consciously or unconsciously.

There are those who claim to communicate with ghosts, is it true and is it dangerous? Yes and No. While it is very possible to reach out to ghosts and get feedback from them, it is also very dangerous because many of the ghosts are held captive by a spirit who rules wherever they are trapped, remember we said it is the spirit world, not physical or human world, there are spirits who rule or control those places and spaces and they have a right to interfere in any dealings or affair you're having with a ghost under them. These spirits are evil spirits. That's why you shouldn't die without the power of Christ because those spirits will have power over you like they will do on earth without the power of Christ.

Can ghosts eat? Yes they eat whatever they find, whatever they can get or manage to purchase. Can they be intimate with a living person? Yes, I've seen that happen many times. There are ghosts who never want to die and didn't deserve to die or generally wouldn't die or leave, they manage to get a body they move about with. Many get married and settle down with a living person who doesn't know anything. How can a ghost manage to purchase anything Well, there is very thin line and interface between our world and their world and some of them manage to get it and out at certain times without the living noticing it. This window, portal, or interface is opened freely at night mostly from 1am. It is a dangerous time to move about.

Can a ghost kill or hurt a living human? They can hurt you if you're doing something that can hurt them knowingly and unknowingly. The spirits of some deceased women or mothers don't leave the sides of their children till they are old enough to protect and defend themselves, hurting such children directly or indirectly will provoke the wrath of their protective ghost mothers. Another way you can hurt a ghost is by destroying what they hold dear and protected when they are still alive, they'll come for you. Trying to speak with ghosts without the right protocol will put you in trouble with the spirit that rules that kingdom. There are channels and means of communication in different worlds, you don't want to approach theirs with earthly protocols, you may not survive it.

Can I try to speak with my late mom, sibling or relative? While you might be able to speak with some of them, I'll say you shouldn't. If there's a message they like to pass across, they usually leave clues and subliminal messages and patterns for you to find and understand them. In their world, it is forbidden to communicate with living humans and they don't want to break the rules. They can only leave subliminal messages for you to find. You might need to do some research on understanding subliminal messages if you really want to hear the message the dead have for you. And once you hear their message in full, they leave and never comes back. There are millions of souls and the dead still trapped in between the two worlds because no man is ready to hear their message. The message is mainly something that is trapping them. For example, the ghost of a woman who dies as a result of domestic violence will not be able to move on until her side story of the story is heard by a living person and the spirit, technically in the abusive partner, that caused their death is unveiled.

Where do ghosts live? They live in the spiritual part of our own world. Not really the same world because there is no existence in their world, just wandering souls. Some sit in their graves at night and cry all through, wondering how many more years they'll have to wander and suffer in this other world. Some go back to their former house or apartments but they can't stay along there because all kinds of spirits move about and they intimidate those ghosts.

Are ghosts behind hauntings, haunted houses, places? Yes, 90% of the time. They are only trying to pass a message, desperately. Some are in pains and torments and desperately need a way out so they pass ther message with such intensity and emotions that may terrify living humans. What tortures and torments ghosts? What/who is actually responsible for their death in the spirit, not physically. Most deaths are orchestrated by a demonic spirit brings together things that will kill them physically. They remain in pains and torments until that spirit is banished from their point of contact.

I've had an encounter with a ghost before, how true is the encounter and am I safe? You should not see a ghost with your physical eyes, if that happens, something is opening the door to the nether realm in your life and you need to protect or deliver yourself. We don't live in the same world, you're not invited into their world, not even to see it, except something in you is maliciously opening that door to see ther world which could harm your soul or mind. If you have an encounter with a dead relative or close friend, normally within few days after they've died, it is because they are trying to send a last message that their souls yearns to tell you probably to tell you that they love you and they are not leaving you that it is death making this happen to them. It hurts many of them that they must leave you. If you and your spouse love each other and one suddenly pass away, they will always haunt and come back for the living partner and may even lure your spirit to follow them into their realm, this is the danger of love. What you should do is to remove everything they ever own including anything they may have given you away from the house and to a far place where you won't go often or sleep over. If not the haunting may escalate until your spirit will stop fighting and succumb.

Most of the souls that died during war, pandemics, violence and fightings are trapped between the two worlds. What we can do to relieve them of their predicament is to plead the blood of Jesus for them to atone for them. That's when their blood will be released from the earth and they can then move on. Sometimes if nothing is done, they bring more hardship to the living because of the hardship they face in the afterlife , because no one cares about them.

I still have a lot to say about ghosts and trapped souls but let me stop here for now. If you're ghost reading this, don't try contact me to help you contact a person, rather make the person reach out to me so I can tell them the message youre trying to pass them.

I have more to say about life and death and especially the subject of death and how to overcome that spirit and other details/secrets of the spirit world and how it influences humans. We will cover this in due time if the Lord permits.

That wasn't Samuel but a demon (fallen angel) deceiving Saul!

GHOSTS ARE SPIRIT APPEARANCES.

MaxInDHouse:
That wasn't Samuel but a demon (fallen angel) deceiving Saul!

He was like a god rising from the earth. The medium was expecting to bring up a demon as usual but she saw something else that was like a god coming from the earth. God brought up Samuel to send a message to Saul. Look for other explanation of this chapter online. Everyone agreed God sent Samuel instead of the witch's demon and she was stupefied.

If you think God is a mystery then i have nothing else to discuss with you but if you believe in insight from the scriptures then let's do a bit of research.

The true God commanded His people never to have anything to do with witches {Deuteronomy 18:10-12} so when Saul became King he drove them all away from his territory {1Samuel 28:3} so God had rejected Saul and would not communicate with him no more {1Samuel 28:6} Samuel while he was alive has turned against Saul never to speak with him or see his face {1Samuel 15:35} So how do you think a witch will force God to bring Samuel and speak to Saul?

Well it was a demon disguising just to promote the idea Satan initiated in Eden God said man will die if they rebel against God {Genesis 2:17} but Satan said God lied {Genesis 3:4} so that's what Satan and his demons are propagating with the idea of living dead.

As for anyone who has died their only hope of having anything to do with the living is when they're resurrected {Job 14:13-15} they know nothing, feel nothing, can't move not speak at all! Ecclesiastes 9:5-10

That's the condition of the dead!
