It’s alarming how many of today’s families are victims of abuse, and the long term mental and physical effects can last a lifetime. I was a victim of suffering through an abusive family. My father was very abusive to my mother, and by being so closely connected to my mother I was expose to it also . I didn’t know at this time that even when I were trying not to be an abuser while growing up I still had some of the contributing traces. I learn that there are different types of abuse, I was in fact an abuser. Not in the physical sense, but verbally and mentally. I thank God for my release from this demon and for another chance to serve him the way he need me to. Thank God I have been set free. The key to a healing from this demon is recognizing there is a problem and getting help. This type of demon destroys families and lives. Pray for deliverance and the Lord will set you free.
