I have a question
I was talking to my sister Jennie and telling her that I could not sleep the other night and had to keep telling satan to go away in Jesus name. She asked me if I told him once than why didn't he stay gone all night and why did I have to keep telling him to go. I told her because saten kept coming back to torment my mind she said that I should of only have had to say it once but I don't think so saten likes to keep on tormenting us so what is all your opinions on this? Also when I did spell check it said I had to capitalize the word saten do I really he dose not deserve that kind of respect.

I don't think he deserves to have his name capitalized either.
It is 2:15am and I can't sleep because I was thinking about your question and I feel God wants me to share my personal experience in this with you. I think we only have to tell satan to get thee beind one time and when it seems like he dosen't leave us alone it is because we don't allow God to take control of the situation or what ever it is that satan is using on us at the time. I know that personally I have had trouble laying my problems at His feet and not picking them back up. I hope this helps and I will be praying for you in this that you will be able to talk to your sister the way God would have you to. Love and Prayers.
I know what you mean Sis.I have known times when the adversary has fled far from me and Gods mercy and grace was great but as Sis Jackie said, there've also been times when I ask him to flee but my mind picks up the trial again and I don't really leave it at my Lords feet as I should and I let him torment me. Yet again there are also times when, if He can't get me one way He'll try again another and it seems as if I'm battling him all day. We fight a mighty enemy everyday of our lives. I love what we heard in Church yesterday about putting on the whole armor of God and Bro. Craig read about how "The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but MIGHTY through God to the pulling down of strong holds" My favorite scripture as a child has always been: Greater is He that is in me than He that is in he world! What an awesome God we fight the battle for. Love you so much!
my sweet sister, i enjoyed your visit here so much and love the bond God has given to us. I have the same problem as you and was actually was just wondering about asking god more than once about things like satin get thee behind me. I am comforted by a sisters dream about working in a garden and having a lot of work and feeling over whelmed and crying but than heard another sister crying and realized she wasn't alone we all in this together but most of all we have or great and merciful God.
