The Spirit of Pride: Narcissists frequently display excessive pride, constantly needing to be right and flaunting their accomplishments. This spirit drives them to create toxic environments, making others feel inferior.
The Spirit of Deception: Narcissists are skilled in deceiving others, manipulating language to confuse and mislead. They often lead others into cycles of religious entrapment, false teachings, and hopelessness.
The Spirit of Confusion: Narcissists capitalize on this spirit to overwhelm and disorient their victims, diverting focus from their own actions and causing you to doubt yourself and your faith.
The Spirit of Condemnation: Narcissists use this spirit to nitpick and criticize, leaving victims feeling guilty, rejected, and worthless. Constant criticism erodes self-esteem, making one feel unworthy.
The Spirit of Witchcraft: Often associated with manipulation and rebellion, narcissists may unwittingly or purposefully dabble in the influence of this spirit to control and isolate others.
The Spirit of Fear: Narcissists project an air of confidence, masking their deep-seated insecurities and fears. They manipulate others to gain control, though, in reality, they’re often trapped in cycles of destructive behavior.
The Bible warns of such spirits in the last days, cautioning us to guard against becoming self-centered, egotistical, and malicious. If you’ve been affected by these influences, seek help, trust in God for strength, and remember: it’s not your responsibility to change others’ nature. Trust God to heal and strengthen you.
