The demon was manifested in this woman as a drug addiction. I talked to the woman about her addiction, told her I'm going to cast out this demon of addiction and prayed to Jesus. After doing this, I looked her in the eyes and addressed the spirit directly. As this happened, the demon instantly manifested in this woman and took over her consciousness. After the moment of addressing it and during the process of casting it out, the woman herself blacked out and the demon took over. I saw hatred and evil manifest. I saw the look a rebellious and angry child would give to someone with authority. The Holy Spirit worked with me as I told it to enter this woman and cast out the demon like in the way that Jesus describes in Matthew 12:29. At this, the woman began making noises of great discomfort.

A minute or two then went by of me commanding the demon to leave and the demon being hurt by the Holy Spirit. It had pretended like it left a few times, but I affirmed whether or not it left by asking the Holy Spirit to give me a sign. When i asked the Holy Spirit to do this, the demon would again make noises of pain.

Finally, this demon was reaching its breaking point. At this time, it had been diverting its gaze from my eyes to avoid the authority of my stare and had begun laughing at me. I then lifted the woman's head to bring the eyes to mine once more and asked "what are you laughing at?? You have no authority here! Leave, NOW!!" and with that, it left. Very intense experience. The woman woke up as if out of a trance and just said she felt very tired. She agreed that it was a very real and powerful experience and affirmed that she felt as though something left her. She had no recollection of what had happened. I lovingly warned her to never touch drugs ever again and she left, exhausted from the experience. I'd now experienced the enemy in a way I'd only ever before seen in videos or heard in stories.
