If you have encountered narcissism in family, friends, church or the community you have encountered demons.
When Christ spoke to Peter one day who was attempting to influence Christ to do something that was not God's will, Christ said; "get thee behind me Satan." Christ did not rebuke Peter directly but He did rebuke the demon who was using Peter's mouth.
We cannot live in this world today without encountering people who are being used by the devil all the time to distract us from serving and living for Christ.
We know that demons are being unleashed everywhere in our country and around the world to bring about the one-world government so their leader, the devil will become its ruler for seven long terrible years.
Ephesians 6:11-13 "…11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world's darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore take up the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you will be able to stand your ground, and having done everything, to stand.…"
Next time you feel threatened by the antics of a narcissist remember that it is the devil attempting to goad you into wrong responses to remove your Christian witness. Do not let this wicked unseen entity get away with it. Remain kind and loving while removing yourself to avoid any further conflict. Conflict is food for the devil who controls the narcissist.
The best way to deal with these narcissists is to address the devil who is speaking, using Scripture.
The challenge and joy when encountering the devil in the narcissist is to remain Christ-like and without emotion. Emotion will trip us up, we must allow Christ to move through us without our flesh getting in the way.
Proverbs 3:5
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding."
