This vulnerability makes narcissists the perfect target for malevolent forces whose goal is not only to shatter the narcissist’s life but also to negatively impact the lives of everyone around them. The eight common demonic spirits that operate behind the veil of narcissism are envy, control, pride, deception, confusion, condemnation, witchcraft, and fear. Each spirit serves to hinder our connection with God, subject us to a relentless emotional roller coaster, entangle us in a harmful thought cycle, and deceive us into believing that it’s our duty to fix someone else’s bad behavior.
Envy is a bitter and resentful feeling that cultivates negative emotions and can quickly consume us if we let it. The Spirit of Control seeks to dominate and manipulate those around them for personal gain, leaving victims feeling helpless and alone. Pride promotes a sense of superiority that leaves people feeling inferior and small. The Spirit of Deception is a master of manipulation, concealing the truth and deceiving others to boost the narcissist’s ego. Confusion is a weapon used to disorient and destruct victims, making them vulnerable to attacks. The Spirit of Condemnation is pervasive and crushes self-esteem, leaving victims feeling ashamed and worthless. The Spirit of Witchcraft incites rebellion and manipulates others for personal gain, while the Spirit of Fear is often at the root of narcissist behavior, paralyzing them with guilt and leaving them trapped in a cycle of destructive behavior and toxic relationships.
So how do we protect ourselves from these negative forces? The Bible warns us about the tribulations that will arise in the last days, where many will become self-absorbed, prideful, and cruel. We can learn to recognize this period and distance ourselves from toxic individuals. Ultimately, it’s God who will deal with their wicked spirits in due time. If you have been hurt by toxic individuals, focus on your well-being and trust in God’s love and guidance to help you overcome your anxieties and insecurities. Remember, it’s not your responsibility to change someone’s character; all you can do is give it to God and focus on your well-being.
