Paranormal experiences?

 Have you ever had an experience with the paranormal or supernatural? ie; premonition, ESP, near death experience, ghost sighting etc?

 I will tell you about my most difficult to explain away experience out of the few that I've had, to start.

 When I was a teenager my parents sold our home and bought a yacht - long story short, after a few years we were sailing it to Tonga from Auckland. This passage took us 10 days and we had to keep a round the clock vigil by sharing watches -two hours on then four hours off. This made us very tired so I assumed it was just sleep deprivation that was causing me to hear voices about six days out. It was like listening to a crowd of people with every now and then a distinct word becoming audible. But later on when all three of us (mum dad and me) were sharing a meal dad said "have you heard the voices?" mum immediately said "yes" then I immediately said "yes!"  Surprised  

I wasn't scared at all about it at all. I felt calm and accepting and didn't feel threatened.

I would have been.

You may want to or not believe but this is true and you don't have to . (People who read this).

I did have a situation in the year 2002. When I was back in India when I was studying at the Bible college doing a 6 months mission course. I was brought up in a Christian family from birth, but never shared my testimony taught it was only for nonChristians who became Christians because they had something to share. But I did then following night when I was asleep in bed it was quiet late all of sudden I felt like I was being choked by a evil looking snake, I was yelling and screaming with all my might My sister was in the same room with me, I called out to her but no one could hear me, i felt like I was wrestling against this snake, I finally called out Jesus,Jesus I kept saying His name out loud all of a sudden I fell back to the bed and felt free and began to breath again. The next morning I asked my sister if she heard me yell and scream she said no! I was very disturbed by this. I told my brother-inlaw about it and he said Satan doesn't like hear how people give their lives and hearts to Jesus. I've never had anything like that before.

But I have heard of people who have seen or fought against strange things!!

That is a strange dream petb. The 'beast' in my nightmares is usually doglike.

Yup!

Every case of something unusual is very personal. Its aim is to teach or to tempt.

The year my grandfather died I went to a Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve and as I left the Church he was sitting there on the back row just the same but with a lighter colour hair.

I have some sort of ESP-type thing, or probably more fully described as the Force. I have often noticed that I will correctly guess a word or something that someone is about to say. Sometimes I just wondered if I was fooling myself but the other day I know that I guessed someone's first name knowing only the first initial. I find this somewhat interesting.

 

Additionally, if I knock something over on a table I can keep it on the table when I am focused. When things are not going well they pretty much always fall off... I imagine this is because I am not correctly guiding my "Force powers". It happens far too rarely to really be able to tell, and I can't actually make stuff move on it's own. This could be attributed to the fact that I don't believe I can move something using "the Force", and so I can't (see Empire Strikes Back).

 

Or I am just making it all up.

What I experienced was an attack! I've never experienced that before and would never want to either again!

I've had a couple of weird experience's but, one afternoon a friend of mine  played the weju board with some school friends. The glass kept spelling out Roberts daddies. Eventually, they all gave up and went home, saying it didn't make any sense. The next morning at school, Robert was absent. The Board had spelt out Roberts Dad Dies. and he had, that night.

The greatest thing I've ever experienced was waking up in my dreams. They call it lucid dreams, only they aren't dreams at all. You find yourself in another, parallel reality and often it's not very pleasant because of a strange feeling of chill and awe, but smtms it gives a great sense of happiness when I see people and they teach me things. It requires energy to go into these dreams.

And lots of vodka

This is very special indeed.

neither vodka or LSD OR ANY OTHER DRUG WILL HELP YOU to get there. Lucid dreams let people get far beyond ordinary life and give feeling and understanding of this very ordinary life. Do it with your mind it's great.

Until I was thirteen, I believed in God.  Ridiculous, I know.

I was once sleeping in a room all alone when a thick rubber ball hit me in the back. The ball was originally 4 feet away from me on the floor and the bed was 2 feet above the ground.

That is only one story and that is the short version

In my 20 years of serving the Lord, more  than one hundred people I have administered who had been formerly possessed. One of them was floating on the air. How could explain it by the scientific evidence? Those who do not believe God, please read Psalms 14:1. Another phenomena that was a man who was rejected by a doctor here in the Philippines because of severe illness was recoverd when he was prayed. How could explain it? I think nobody can not explain it by a finite mind. That's why I believe in miracle.
  In my life also there has a miracle. I'm lame since I was a child because of the injection of the pretender doctor. The professional doctor could not be able to restore my walking ability. But through prayer I could be able to walk. How could explain it if there is no miracle?

Check this game. I didn't believe in miracles either!

Well, there are actually many ways to explain paranormal or demonic activity.  Most of them start with an active imagination and a lack of a rational mind.
