Hey Wingedlion,
I have another question about something that is going on in our church. I am the song leader and when I get up to lead the songs, something will cause me to choke. It's not like choking though because you can't just clear your throat or cough and go on. It literally stops you from singing (for a minute or so) because its like I can't catch my breath. This will happen about every other time that I lead the songs, especially when I feel the spirit beginning to move.

Of course, the devil has tried to convince me that it is me, but I know better. I was talking to the songleader before me tonight and she told me that the same thing happened to her. But, she and I both go and sing for an hour at the nursing home three times a month and it doesn't happen there. Also, she and I both will get up and sing solos and it doesn't happen then either. It also happened to my sister once when she was on stage with me and she refuses to ever go up there again. I've told this to our ex pastor and he doesn't seem to believe that it is something to be concerned about. The new pastor knows about it too, but he hasn't suggested that we do anything either.

I, myself, as well as my husband will pray before I go sing and bind the choking spirit, as well as rebuke it, and sometimes it works and sometimes it don't. When I'm leading the songs I have 4-6 other people up there with me as well as the band and the pastor. Could it be one of them causing this?

I just need some help from someone that has experience dealing with this type of warfare.
