Jesus spent at least a third of His time healing and casting out demons. Spirits can gain access into people or into the personalities of individuals. When there are spirits that go from generation to generation, manifesting on a piece of land, or in an actual family or bloodline, those spirits are called familiar spirits.
So what you want to consider is:
- What generational patterns are at work in your life? What kind of spiritual forces have been in your lineage, family, and bloodline for many years? The Bible speaks about familial or familiar spirits. There are spirits that are familiar with your life journey, perhaps from generation to generation. Many believe that trauma can induce the transfer of spirits from parent to child. Addictions, poverty, and divorce are examples of patterns that can pass from generation to generation.
- Some of your battles didn’t start with you. These bents and inclinations toward fear, mistrust, abandonment, depression, and even suicide can be generational. These patterns are rooted in family history and in some strange way were passed down from generation to generation in the bloodline. An iniquity is a bent or inclination of the soul toward a certain pattern of ungodly thinking—BUT the good news is YOU DON’T HAVE TO YIELD to any spirit or generational pattern. Not for one split second!
- What can you do? When something is exerting an influence over your freedom of will and occupying your mind, it is often a spiritual assignment that is intent on breaking up your freedom to follow Christ. If the pattern has been evident in your bloodline, perhaps you are the one who gets the task of finally breaking it off of your household and the next generation! This is where you become the champion that cuts off the pattern of iniquity or the power of a familiar spirit from operating because you choose to resist it and break the cycle in your own life. That’s really what an overcomer is. Perhaps the Lord has called you for such a time as this to bring His freedom and deliverance to your family and future generations?
Annabelle and I have decided that we would discern and judge anything that was operating in our lives that was trying to transfer to our children. We found that when we confronted it and broke it off of us, we emasculated its power to transfer to the next generation. All we had to do was alert our children to the family story and history so that they could be enlightened and resist. Their power to resist was multiplied because we had brought it to the light and already dealt with it!
Question: What generational patterns is your spirit alert to even now? Ask the Lord to pinpoint the areas that it is time to address.
Give me some feedback and share the process God has you in!
As One!

For me. The familiar spirit in my family is a whoring spirit among the men. Ad a result it eventually breaks down Their bodies and they are left totally useless.
My blood line has every stronghold and iniquity you can imagine! Since I have started this journey of seeking God and standing in the gap for my family it has been overwhelming, but God gives me strength to endure. There has even been attempts on my life! But God is greater and no weapon formed against me shall prosper. God has been breaking strongholds as I seek to live according to His word. There is still a ways to go, but I don’t travel alone. Please keep me in prayer as I continue this journey of deliverance for myself and my bloodline. Thanks. Be blessed in Jesus name!
My mother who could not abort me has come up against God’s call on my life my whole life. She is 82 now and still last year as I tried to rise up to all He had created me to be, I was amazed at how thorough her sabotage became at my starting a new business in the creativity I had done in gifts only, since I was about 10 years old. I spared her the details and excitement I was feeling to prevent her annoyance. As a survivor of CPTSD… she actually endangered my life in order to defeat my hard work at the commencement of TLC Creative Services. She waged the battle against it’s success for nearly 8 months. By that amount of time, about August 2018 until now March 2019; my health, finances and credit were severely damaged. She stil checks occasionally to make sure that I am still down. She also reacted with great trepidation at discovering my book of 70 poems I kept hidden for 16 years were safely copywritten in 2018. Her abuse and my entire family’s cooperation in my abuse were astounding. I felt as though I was being buried alive until my brothers 5 arrests for assaults against other people after I had been turned down for restraining orders against both he and my mother. There is so much more to tell. I am still reeling from those assaults, but now my brother’s criminal record prevents the two of them from any further attemps to prove myself mentally incompetent.
Me and my granddaughter are dealing with familiar spirits. Spirits of fear and infirmity. I know this and I feel it is true. I am dealing with issues and when she is going through something (fear of swallowing, eating, wearing certain clothes, etc..) I know how she feels. It’s as if that spirit is laughing at me, mocking me. We both walk around with no freedom. I am 55 and she is only 7. There has been trauma in my life and she was living here at the time. I remember I used to think “I hope she doesn’t feel like this or go through what I am going through (anxiety and some fear because of stomach issues). These same spirits have been around my whole life. My brother and sister died of muscular dystrophy. We were always in and out of hospitals. I have had fear of sickness my whole life. I now see this same spirit on her… How do I break this off of us? I want her to be free and Jesus is the only way!
Ive been plagued by an evil spirit of suicide and/ or fear it is generatuonal Ibelieve.A long time ago I heard voices telling me to kill myself.I attemped,but got help.That spirit has gone,but I believe another thing plagues my mind.See I write a ministry page on facebook and God has gifted me to release trauma in peoples lives. I get attacked by family, people outside things.It is really strong I pray for escape.Then I get threatened and violence after an attack my body feels like it is hurting.I get alot of pain in my left shoulder and it almost makez me debilitated.Ive asked God to reveal the root of this pain I feel, but again I go through trauma, terrorized by people and I just end up afraid praying for escape left in another bad state.I know God wants to set me free ,but Im at my breaking point.I want it to be over so I can be of service and feel better.Thank for everything

Laurie Garrett,
Feel like I was led here for your comment.
God loves you and I do too. Know that!
First and foremost, get your faith up! Pickup your shield! Eph 6:10-20
This is your issue:
“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23
Somewhere along the way of your ministry, you’ve taken your shield down. Maybe in your youth satan planted seeds of fear in your spiritual heart before you were mature in the word, there are many ways it can get in. It doesn’t matter. Now you have to guard and speak. You’re going to have to dig in the scriptures and see yourself differently than you ever have. Surface reading wont due. You will have to study, “a little here, and a little there” all around the bible to address the things trying to break in (start with Hebrews 10, 11, & 12 and branchout). There will be tough conversations you need to have with yourself in the mirror [“You get in there and point at yourself !”]. You have to speak directly to the thought and laugh in its face, while quoting the word. Those firey darts have to be quenched (thoughts) 2 Corinthians 10:5-7, because your spirit man is due for a reconstruction. You need a new image, the correct image to see yourself as God does, which is all about Gods love. “Perfect love cast out all fear”1 John 4:18, and fear is your biggest enemy, potentially the fear of people and what they think. Satan can use people close to you, but don’t let that stop you from speaking over them in love and addressing your personal situation. Remember how Christ and Paul went through so much (2 Cor 11:22-28), but you are living in the most awesome time, (actually you are being watched and cheered on by a cloud of witnesses who were before us Hebrews 12: 1-2) when the sons of God will be revealed (Romans 8:19); a power full group of believers that are blameless and have works and miracles that follow them. Many minsters have prophesied about this time where men will walk as gods amongst natural men, but I can guarantee you this, “you wont be ready unless you have a deep revelation of the word”. You have study everyday [the word is Christ (John 1:14) so you have to digest it. Put Christ in you] and if you do this the power will infill or back your words; then you speak and things will fall away instantly or within short periods of time. Speaking is the key ” Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” You will look strange speaking to yourself about things in the mirror, but things will fall away. You will actually feel your spirit man inside you gaining strength [physically feels like a growing knot or flame in your gut,(not adverse) Proverbs 20:27]. Be blessed and get back in the race and make your own way successful (Joshua 1:8) through faith and Christ. (any questions I’m here for you)…
Break.
Don’t hold on rather begin to let God hold onto you.
Do this by admitting that while life is miserable (and it is as we are in a fallen state and even the good fades away) death too is just the ultimate never-ending furthest extent of what we call “life”.
Find out what true life is according to Christ (God)
It is Him.
If you are filled with His Spirit, that is eternal life because you then become part of Him forever, never to die as Him.
Thank you! I am experiencing strange spirits in my life. From this post it looks like familiar spirit. Anything good that comes on my way get scattered. But I have to break that cycle through the power of the Holy Spirit
Hi Lance thank you for this information. Last night I was crying and sobbing in agonizing pain about my life and praying to the Lord. Which is a pattern in my life. I often feel stuck and wonder why I’m not experiencing the blessings of God. I asked the Lord to help me and asked Him why I wasn’t experiencing His promises. I thanked and praised Him in this process and as His scripture came to my mind I spoke it aloud.
I was awakened early this morning to this thought “your Grandma wanted to abort your Dad.” I instantly woke up! I believe God has spoken this to me. I had forgotten that many years ago that my Mom shared with me an argument my Dad and Grandma had when my Grandma was in her 70’s or 80’s. My Grandma had said to my Dad “I should have had that abortion.” My Grandma was not allowed back to their house and my Dad never saw her again. My Dad never knew his real Dad as my Grandma had him out of wedlock. My Dad was an alcoholic starting around 15 years of age, could be younger.
I’m grateful for what God has revealed and I want to move forward can you help me? Do you have any resources, books etc?
Thank you and God Bless you for this information!!
Sincerely,
Pam Scheese

Hello my name is Tiffany Bonneau. I am a breast cancer survivor. Please pray for my two daughters, Dasha and Tynea. Please pray that the spirit of rebellion will be released from them. I love them so very much. I thank God that they are in my life. I pray that God will forgive me for all my wrong doing. I want to make God proud of me. I want my daughters to be proud of me. I want to be an inspiration to anyone who needs help. I loved Mother Theresa and all the great deeds she has done. i want to give back and put a smile on many faces. In Jesus name I pray AMEN.
I pray you and yours realize that your sin has separated you eternally from God and that nothing can be done to bribe Him from not dispensing His wrath YET that unfathomable wrath (Hell) was also paid for by Him as he hung upon the cross.
We either accept that and are changed by being filled with the Holy Spirit (true salvation)
Or
We pay the price ourselves anyways despite what He has done
Everything else in ones life is merely the earthly outcome of that choice
Please pray for my daughter ( Laura, age 39 ) . I am her father . Her maternal grandmother was known as ” mad lulu ” (short for Ellen ) . Laura’s mother called her Laura Ellen . Laura is now homeless , living in a tent , refusing to occupy an apartment i have for her . She has not talked with me for 18 months. She still communicates with her mother , who lets me know the latest circumstances . We are divorced . I believe Laura is carrying unforgiveness and is punishing herself . I believe it is demonic influence also .
Please pray or tell me how to pray against these forces .
Leslie ( father )
Call them out for hours demanding they be exposed and remind them of their sealed fate. This repels them as they only exist now to distract themselves from that thought by feeding off of peoples sinful actions. They receive no pleasure in one who stands against them in Christ, (their condemer)
