Satan is attacking my friend's marriage. I have been talking to her husband which is a preacher and he is upset because she is letting the devil into their marriage and he is wreaking havic on the marriage. My friend I am affraid is possed by a demon. I trying to talk to her about some stuff she says toward him and she says that i am taking her husband side. This happened before but it was the husband that the devil had his hand on. God pulled him back and after some counciling with our pastor and he got his life right he was called to preacher. Well when I am around my friend my spirit is clashing with something in her. The husband is affraid that the marriage is over. Please stand with me in praying for this couple. Also help me pray this demon will leave my friend. Thank you all and God bless you.

Is this couple, both of them saved and reborn? We need to know if this is actual possession or tremendous influence over them. We need to know, in order to pray correctly before God for them.
Lord-
We pray we will know the Truth, that we can command these demons rightly, by the Blood of Jesus, how to be removed from this couple. In Jesus Name- Amen!!

My advice to you is... Back Off and Stay Out Of It!!!
Where is the integrity of this man that he seeks council from and confides in a WOMAN? That is a sure course for disaster.
And stop giving the devil more credit than his due. Flesh is the culprit here apparently and Satan doesn't have to do anything but nudge them occasionally.
Satan cannot possess a Christ-Follower without permission and trust me God is not going to give permission. He can harass and oppress and that is all he can do unless your friend continues to confess this over his wife and by doing that HE is giving Satan permission to continue and escalate the problem.
Your Friend needs to stop feeling sorry for himself, stop running from God and take a stand and defy Satan in the Name and by the Blood of Jesus, forcing him to back off.
Satan is under our feet and it is time for your friend to do a war dance of Praise and Worship on his head.
Yes! Praise IS an offensive Weapon and Worship brings the Presence of Father God to our aid and there is nothing Satan can do in HIS Presence!
Get your friend to a godly male councilor and stand out of the situation.
Support both your friends with Prayer, Praise and Worship because you can also do a war dance and bring the Father into this mess these two people have made for themselves.
Father! I stand in the gap for Brandy and her friends! Holy Spirit do whatever You need to do to bring these people into Your presence. Bring repentance and healing and fellowship with Jesus fully into their lives and in the Name of Jesus I bind the hands of the enemy that is set to destroy them and remand the spirits of divorce, discord and division over to the throne of Jesus. AMEN!

I know the husband has been born again. But my friend I have wondered about. We asked her before and she said, "Yea, I think." You know just as well as I don't you either know if you are or your not. Their is no thinking about it.

A married couple is "One" in the sight of God.
That means an unsaved spouse is under the same covering of blessing and protection from God that the saved spouse is under.
This does not mean the unsaved spouse will go to heaven as a given!
Jesus is STILL the only doorway and we must each walk through Him for ourselves.
Salvation takes a relationship with Jesus and that means speaking to Him and getting to know Him and be like Him as you would your closest friend or relative or 'homie'. It gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "Blood Brother".
Your Girl-Friend is covered by the blessing and protection of her Husband's covering and is sanctified by his Salvation because they are one person in the sight of God.
That is why this man's own words are giving permission for this to continue.
There is great power in words!
The Word of God is Power and as His Children our words have power.
The power to build or destroy... our choice... this man seems to have made his choice and is tearing down his own household with his own words because he would prefer to blame Satan and claim his wife is demon possessed instead of taking responsibility for his own actions and words and those of his wife.
He is speaking words of destruction to you instead of taking his problem before the Father for solution.
Thank GOD! He allows U-Turns! This man can stop what he is doing/speaking and repent (stop and turn around from going the wrong way) and start speaking blessings on his wife, his household, and HIMSELF!
And you can also repent. Stop interfering and cursing this marriage with your words and actions and start blessing and praising God for His work in their marriage!
Stop cursing your Girl-Friend with "demon possession"... Your words are giving permission for that to happen if she steps out from under her husband's covering! If he cannot or will not maintain the covering then YOU can!
And you should be praying a covering over yourself as well because you are treading on thin ice by allowing this man to come to you for counseling instead of going to a godly man for counsel.
Just as I (a woman who has been married 35 years) am speaking blunt truth to you in counsel so a godly man can speak blunt truth to this Husband and actually help him instead of commiserating with him as a woman has the natural God-given tendency to do.
And the temptations that come with being men and women in intimate counseling situations do not arise.
================================================== =
1Co 7:12 But to the rest _I, Paul_ speak (not the Lord): if any brother has an unbelieving wife, and _she_ is willing to be living with him, stop letting him divorce her.
1Co 7:13 And a woman who has an unbelieving husband, and _he_ is willing to be living with her, stop letting her divorce him.
1Co 7:14 For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified [or, set apart to God] by the wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified by the husband; for otherwise indeed your* children are unclean [or, defiled], but now they are holy [or, set apart to God].
1Co 7:15 But if the unbelieving [spouse] separates himself, let him be separating himself: the brother or the sister has not been bound in such [cases], but God has called us in peace.
1Co 7:16 For how do you know, O wife, whether you will save the husband? Or how do you know, O husband, whether you will save the wife?
Make sure you read all of James... good book for this situation.
Jas 3:10 Out of the same mouth comes forth blessing and cursing. My brothers, it is not fitting for these things to be so.
Jas 3:11 Does the fountain out of the same hole send forth the sweet and the bitter?
Jas 3:12 My brothers, a fig tree is not able to produce olives, or a vine figs. So neither can a fountain produce both salt and sweet water.
Jas 3:13 Who is wise and knowing among you? Let him show his works by his good behavior, in meekness (the power under control) of wisdom.
Jas 3:14 But if you have bitter jealousy and contention in your heart, do not boast and lie against the truth.
Jas 3:15 This is not the wisdom coming down from above, but is earthly, beastly, devilish.
Jas 3:16 For where jealousy and contention are, there is confusion and every foul deed.
Jas 3:17 But the wisdom from above is firstly truly pure, then peaceable, forbearing, yielding, full of mercy and of good fruits, not partial and not pretended.
Jas 3:18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace for the ones making peace.

Brandy-
As a woman, you should know better than to be personally speaking with the husband, particularly knowing his wife claims your siding with him.
You are clearly not in the best position to make such claims as you have. I've known True Children of God severely pelted by Satan to have at times questioned thier Salvation. God declares Satan will try to decieve even the "very elect"- (God's True Children).
God also declares in the latter days, some shall depart from the faith. (You cannot fall away or "depart" from something you never belonged to before.)
Akabezalel is right on, on all points. Get out of this mess. Be in prayer and fasting over them to God. Advise professional Counciling to them and leave it be there after.
Its clear, you do not have the ability of God thru the Holy spirit to speak with this couple in a Counciling way, as the wife took your remarks defensively. A good Councilor of God,lead by the Holy Spirit, will see the Spirit speak things to "defuse", not antagonize" the exchanges and keep the respective partners calm and nondefensive.
You are putting yourself in the middle of this, not God, otherwise things would be progressing differently. Be in prayer for God to bring them to someone better qualified and not biased towards either one to help them and who speaks strait from God's Word for thier Counciling.
From experience, I can also say that you speak from a carnal view, not a Councilor's view, who knows full well, that marriage is a two way street. Both partners must put thier all into the marriage, and realize they each have a part in the faltering of thier marriage.
This has clearly not been shown as shared with them. By your own admission, its all the "wife's fault". No Brandy, it is not. Thats another good reason you need to be out from the middle of this situation and leave it to God thru prayer. Your involvement could very well do more harm than good.
Lord-
We pray that you would bring proper Counciling to this couple to help them return to being "one flesh" in your eyes. We pray for proper understanding in Brandy to do whats right before you and seek your Will for the couple to be done thru a qualified person who can benefit them more than harm thier relationship. in Jesus Name- Amen!!
