Stuck between sleep and awake unable to speak!
Posted: Fri Dec 21, 2007 8:52 am
It has been a few years since I've had this experience happen to me I thought I'd post it here to see if anyone has had the same thing.
This happened to me as I was waking up at first and then as I was going to sleep later on.
At first for many years had dreams of the demons being right in my face I would rebuke them in my dreams and would usually speak in tongues as well. But after having these dreams several times. The enemy would choke my voice off so that I couldn't speak, I would awake and still be unable to speak, this was very unsettling for me.
I emailed my pastor because of this and asked him to pray for me he did and the dreams stopped. It took a lot to get the courage to email him.
Several years later I have something very similar happen to me only this was as I was going to sleep. I would drift off have awake and half asleep, (that's the only way I can describe it) I would then feel a presence in the room I would awake but couldn't speak and couldn't move I would be held like this for several seconds. This would happen repeatedly to me.
I talked with a very gifted friend of mine, I began to tell her about this wondering what this could mean. I was thinking it was the enemy, but not sure in some ways. There have been many people teriffied in the Bible that met angels. What's interesting to me is that the only thing I could do would be to listen, and I've always been afraid of hearing the Voice of God.
Someone please help me on this as I've thought about it quite a bit and have wondered about this.
