"I practiced Eastern meditation and yoga—I invited Hindu spirits that still oppress me."
How it sounds in your head: I didn't know what I was doing, but ignorance doesn't matter. I participated in practices rooted in false gods. Those spirits attached to me and they're still here.
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new."
-- 2 Corinthians 5:17Source: religion - Teaching that demonic oppression persists despite being in Christ.
You've heard teachings that yoga and meditation open doorways to demons. You feel spiritual resistance and assume it's from those practices.
Cornelius was a Roman centurion who lived his entire life in paganism, participating in Roman religious practices and likely military rituals to false gods. When Peter preached, the Holy Spirit fell on him and his household IMMEDIATELY—no deliverance from pagan spirits needed.
I REFUSE the lie that Eastern practices left me spiritually oppressed. IT IS WRITTEN that I am a new creation in Christ—old things passed away, all things became new. No spirit from my past has authority in my present. I am sealed with the Holy Spirit, and greater is He in me than any force in the world. IT IS WRITTEN that no weapon formed against me shall prosper. I am not oppressed—I am blessed, free, and completely new.
The Father doesn't require you to go through deliverance protocols from yoga practices. He made you completely new the moment you believed—no Hindu spirits, no oppression, just His Holy Spirit dwelling in you.
