Child Seers and their Spiritual Antennae – A Tip for Parents

Many children see spirits. Ok, that’s pretty well established on this site. It can be difficult to parent child seers, especially when you have no idea if what they’re seeing is really there or just their imaginations run wild. It’s safe to say, parents can often detect when a child is truly terrified of the monster in the closet or…

The Toddler

One day, when my daughter was 8, she was playing outside by herself, and I was in the house watching TV. She came dashing in, frantic. “Dad! There’s a baby  walking down the street!” I sat straight up. “What?

When Demons Scratch You

I’ve heard numerous accounts of demons literally scratching people – in many cases, young seers. Sometimes, people scratch themselves while fighting them off. One day a teen in my youth ministry visited me, and I noticed a bad cut on her upper arm. It was about 3 inches long and maybe a centimeter wide, as if a fingernail had dug…

“I see spirits too!”

My daughter came home from a day camp today with an odd story. At least, I would have thought it odd a few years ago. One of the camp counselors bonded with her, apparently, because she came home so excited and talked and talked and talked (remember, she’s 9) about this camp counselor. And she added, “Plus she can see…

Open Doorways – Part 3 of 3

See Part 2 here. This continues my discussion on spiritual doorways. After our small group cleansed our house, the demonic manifestations largely stopped, but still presences that scared her sometimes managed to invade her room. However, more frequently our daughter would still point to things outside the house, for instance at the window looking in. Sometimes we’d pray against them…

Small Group House Cleaners Part 2 of 3

Part 1 is told here. Part 2: The Real Ghost Hunters I find the Ghost Hunters shows on television annoying. They aren’t annoying because of trying to discover if paranormal things are happening, but because when paranormal things happen, they get it wrong. Their worldview is completely off.  Yes, houses can be haunted. They aren’t haunted by ghosts (the spirits…

“Go away in the name of Jesus!”

Part 1 of 3 When our daughter was 2, she indicated scary things were in the room terrifying her.  While we were tempted to just write her reactions off as a normal but overactive imagination  – you know, the “there aren’t really monsters under your bed or in your closet” thing, her reactions were so real. Sometimes we’d hold her…

Exactly What Is a Seer?

I think much of what exists on the Internet about people who see in the spirit realm is misinformation based on mainly feelings and experiences, with little truth and no science underlying it.  Short answer, a Seer is someone who can perceive the spirit world with his or her own eyes, or in his or her mind’s eye. On this…

Child Seers and Excuses

When child seers declare, “Because, mom, I can see things!” it can mean trouble. Our eight year old pulled that line out this week as an excuse for poor behavior. She was lamenting that she didn’t have any friends. She said no one likes her.  Her mom asked, “How do you know that no one likes you?” And she pulled…
