When someone is under demonic oppression and the enemy is implanting thoughts and urges into a person’s mind those thoughts don’t register clearly in the persons memory. All of his thoughts were not his own including the one causing his hostility towards me. There were several times when the man made an effort to stab me in the back and later would be talking to me as if it had never happened.
The Lord told me through the Holy Spirit what was going on so that I could deal with it appropriately. I actually liked the guy but the enemy had their claws in Him. I tactfully tried to get at the issue a few times but was unsuccessful. He didn’t see this as being in conflict with the worship of the Lord Jesus and had no idea that this was a demonic door. The man was a Lumbee indian and he actively took part in tribal religious activities. He didn’t know about demons and how they work behind the scenes to create problems for Christians. The guy was a professing Christian and I am sure he really was a believer. The man that was hired to be my new helper turned out to have some serious doors open which the enemy used to lash out at me. My helper left the company and had to be replaced. A few years ago I was working for a local company installing heat pumps and gas furnaces. The demons used him at every opportunity. I once was stuck working with a man who was under demonic oppression. They will still hear it if you say it quietly, demons have great hearing. You can say it quietly but you must say it out loud so the demons can hear it. Command them to keep their noses out of anything that you are involved in. Step off someplace where no one else can hear you and take authority over the demons in the name of Jesus and command them to stay out of your business in the workplace.
In the mornings you can take a moment when all parties involved are at the workplace, that is when the puppet is in the building. The second strategy is basic spiritual warfare using the authority of the Lord’s name.
The Lord doesn’t leave His soldiers hanging out to dry. A simple prayer asking Jesus to remove anything that is allowing the enemy to work against you in the workplace is very effective. There are two strategies that I have found that work well to combat this situation. The first thing to keep in mind is that your enemy isn’t the puppet it’s the evil thing pulling the strings. Have you ever had a boss who seemed to have it in for you even though you know for a fact that you are doing a good job? If you’re a Christian and your boss is not there’s a good chance the man is being used as a puppet. Sometimes it’s a demon using that individual to get at you. Have you ever had a coworker who was overly hostile towards you for no real reason? Sometimes it’s just a case of a bad attitude but sometimes it’s not. If he gets the chance he will use coworkers and/or customers to lash out at you. I want to talk about how the enemy will attack us in the workplace.
