Family Rejection because of Supernatural Experiences

You think your 'Christian' family will never turn against you?

As you probably already know, I had a lot of supernatural experiences when I was a kid. One time I was underneath the carport and something compelled me to look directly at my dad's metal kickstand on his bicycle. As I stared at it intently for a few seconds, this metal kickstand snapped in two while I was staring at it.

I ran into the house to tell my family about it, and they accused me of lying. This crushed me because I love my family very much.

Years earlier, when I was 5 years old, something drew me to another part of my relative's house. There was a room with the door closed. The door was usually left open, so I thought that was strange. I heard this man shuffling around inside the room. He said through the closed door to tell people that he had started a fire. So I go back into the kitchen, and I tell my family this man in the bedroom started a fire, and he wanted me to tell them. They didn't believe me, saying there was no one else in the house.

The house, in fact, was on fire. They found out after the smoke came into the kitchen. If they would have listened to me the first time they would have saved much more than they did.

After a few things like this happened, I learned not to tell people about my supernatural experiences. They'll call you delusional or say that you're making it up. This ought not to be the case.

I knew that there was a lot of supernatural activity in the Bible. However, Christians were accusing me of lying and being delusional. This drove me from the church for decades.

I eventually had an encounter with the Lord in 1995 despite fighting Him off for decades. I was at the end of my rope, so to speak. Then my supernatural experiences started being the God kind.

If your kid is talking about demonic experiences, don't accuse them of lying or being delusional. Teach them about spiritual warfare and look for any open doors to the enemy. Or you may drive them away from Jesus.
