This is called sleep paralysis as per the explanation given previously. I get this often and it is very scary but perfectly normal, but it has been spun into some kind of demonic possession. I admit that when I get it I spin prayers like wild fire but it really is just a transition state between being awake and your brain activating your muscles. People associate it with something demonic because it is common for people to be conscious of their actual surroundings in their minds and to see people about. Well this is because you are still in a semi dream state and one of the reasons why your brain shuts down your muscles at that time is to stop you from acting out your dreams (I'm guessing sleep walkers have trouble with this. However, being semi-conscious it is natural that you will see yourself in your bedroom sleeping and the fear of the state is what kicks in the ideas of intruders and creatures. I just think that we need to be careful of turning everything into some kind of possession or demon because we spread fear and fail to understand things for what they are. After all, we are in a world that has sin and thus things go wrong so clearly this is just on that long list of imperfections that have leaked into this world. 1 Like |

Sleep paralysis...ermm okay. How do u explain the fact that sometimes you try going back to sleep and the feeling comes almost immediately again? And that after you've prayed(if u believe it's diabolical), it doesn't happen again? 1 Like |

uj_sizzle: Sleep paralysis...ermm okay.Not to discredit the prayer, but is it the prayer that stops it? I experience such and it stops as soon as it comes... Is it scary? Yes, it can be... But let's not be too superstitious about this... Question: why would a demon press you while you sleep? Is the demon pressing you physically or spiritually? To what end? If yes, and you believe in the Holy Spirit, then I seriously have to wonder what security the Holy Spirit offers? Hw u dey by the way? Hope u have a great week... |

[quote author=Joagbaje] It's a demonic oppression or witchcraft . Don't take it lightly. When you wake from such sleep rebuke it or get to a minister who is anointed for such to minister to you[/quote] Some ppl still joke with this stuff... 1 Like |

diz sleep press happened to me often...some time 3 to 4 Times a night....I'll see someone standing in front of me while sleeping i tried to move my body but i can't once called Jesus in my heart that's when I wake up..it doesn't matter if it is in the morning or night in the room full of hundred bulb or sleeping with hundred people...it'll happen to me and i end up suspecting almost everybody in the house but if i sleep somewhere nothing will happen...i went around net looking for solutions only to see scientific explanation that can't explain anything close to what I experience...i watched people on television doing things supernatural like using an heavy hammer on head, like a long sharp object in the eyes why can't they explained that....only to say is magic without explanation. |

Find out why it is impossible for Prophet TB Joshua to use demonic power to do healing and deliverance of evil spirits here; In a court of law, truth rules because God is truth. So a credible witness is very important. Kwaku Bonsam's god is called Kofi Kofi. Kofi Kofi is a destructive demonic entity whose ruler is Satan. Kofi Kofi is translated in Swahili as Liar Liar. Based on his history, can Kwaku Bonsam be Accepted as a credible witness ? In the Satanic realm, deceit and confusion reigns. Kwaku Bonsam is clearly a confused Satanic follower who cant even understand the basic spirit laws governing his chosen god. PEOPLE OF NIGERIA, DON'T BE DECEIVED ! No Satanic powers can heal or do deliverance of evil spirits simply because it is impossible for evil to do good. It is that simple ! Jesus Christ came to empower us with this TRUTH, He said, “Satan can’t and will not work against himself." Satan destroys health, family, community, career, etc. Satan is a sly deceiver. All good come only from God as revealed by Jesus Christ. Too many False Pastors/ Rabbis, etc teach their congregations that a demon possessed pastor CAN DO demonic deliverance and miraculous healings. History shows how we all have been brain-washed for hundreds of years by science, governments, the Pentecostal churches, Roman Catholic Churches, Old and New Apostolic Churches and many more. You do remember what Jesus said when the evil Jewish priests told him that he is doing - all the healing and deliverance - by the power of Satan. This is what the holy Prophet TB Joshua of Scoan Nigeria is also accused of today. Jesus said to these so-called holy men. “Satan can’t and will not work against himself." What does all this mean? Even if a so-called respected but false pastor/Bishop/Prophet/Clergyman try to heal or do demon deliverance, it can’t and won’t work. Satan can’t and won’t work against himself. Finally we all have loads of scientifically verifiable evidence coming out of Scoan Church Nigeria that proves the holy Gospels and the Holy Books of Acts to be accurate. Truth seekers are eternally grateful to a humble servant of the true GOD, Prophet TB Joshua. |

Get help ! Dont believe what science has to say about emotional/mental disturbances. It is a sin for sick people to go into a church of CHRIST and go home the same. As witnessed at the Holy Scoan Church Nigeria everyone is healed. Everyone has enough faith to be healed instantly whether they are Jew, Muslim, Buddist or even So-called Christians. Their faith is shown by coming forward for the healing. Their faith is always enough ! This is repeatedly demonstrated daily on Emmanual TV and youtube.com for the whole world to study. It is the superior faith of the healer that is needed to complete the healing, not the small faith of the congregation. Jesus said to his apprentice healers, “unto you is given the Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven.” Unto the masses he said, “ if you have faith as small as a mustard seed.” Because of Prophet TB Joshua’s compassion for unbelievers such as the medical scientific community and the unbelieving clergy, no one can come for healing at SCOAN anymore unless they have medical (scientific) proof of their problems. This is inline with the way Jesus Christ and his disciples worked. They always provided proof of the love of God while fixing all the problems of the suffering masses. Gods miracle healings have no negative side effects. Prophet TB Joshua freely gives evidence of scientific medically verifiable truth daily 24hrs a day on Emmanuel TV and youtube. Not that medical science can ever be the judge here, as history sadly proves. In the Holy Scoan Church, Nigeria, people of many different religions and belief systems from all over the world are healed completely and then verified by a lower role player known as medical science. The loving Prophet TB Joshua says, “ It is a sin for sick people to go into any church of JESUS CHRIST and go home the same.” It is now well known that thousands of Satanists, Spiritualists, Medical specialists and self-serving leaders of religion are panic stricken because of the miraculous work done at The Holy Scoan Church, Nigeria. manmustwac: |

i thank you all for your care and taking your time to explain things to me, this thing has been happening to her since she was little, especially if she sleeps alone and it happens mostly in the afternoon. I asked my mum and she said she used to experience it when she was young and that it is a witch pressing.I kind of doubt if it is witchcraft though. i don't want to believe a witch is after somebody Next time something like that happen call God not Jesus. See the different for yourself. |

Re: What Is Behind Getting Pressed While Sleeping? by tintingz(m): 7:59pm On Apr 02, 2017 |
An2elect2: airminem:It is sleep paralysis and it can be controlled. People should not be deceived thinking it is some kind of evil force, why will an evil force or demon press your chest? for what na? Too what end? Why is everyone all round the world experiencing same symptoms? This is sleep paralysis, you can check on Google to know how to control it. Sleep paralysis comes from the brain when blood doesn't flow like normal and you're half-awake then start hallucinating, sleep paralysis mostly take seconds, that's why it is advisable to sleep with your body face sides not your chest facing up(sleeping on your back for too long). |

EvilBrain1: your answer to this question, appears perfect and convincing but for other facts about it,,,, . This is my case.. (1.) First i see my self in the dream,,, and then, either a man or a woman is trying to catch me with an evil intention, so i will start running or he or she may be trying to press my neck and surfocate me to death in that dream, i will then try to shout jesus, but it is as if the person is overpowering me,,,,, i will start struggling with the person, and wake up, but as i am trying to come into conciousness, i only discover this force pressing me down,,, a kind of wanting me to die in my sleep.... I don't experience pressing without such evil dreams.,, as in me, don't of others. It really gets me worrying. . (2.) second, i noticed my dog will start barking at that minute. Facing the door to my apartmment.,,, serveral times, this happens, i see my dog in that state. There are times i wake up from my sleep, without pressing, the dog doesn't bark those times. The question is why facing my door at such times.? To me, It means the dog saw something, like a spirit,,(evil spirit) entering my room. . (3.) some av even died through that process. Some people struggle to wake up, some struggle too but couldn't make it and died.(lot of mysteries about it) . To me i feel there is more to it...'spiritual wise'. I feel Its beyond the brain paralysis you talked about. 1 Like |
