> I awakened in the middle of the night. Getting up, at my

> heard one of our dogs enter the kitchen; walking slowly across the
> tiled floor. I clearly, without a doubt, heard his toenails
> click, click, clicking on the tile floor of the kitchen as he
> walked across and stopped near our refrigerator. We also put our
> dogs on leashes at night which are tied down near the bed so they

> the kitchen to see if I would give him something to eat. Not
> knowing which dog it was, I couldn't call him by name, so I
> slapped my leg and called to him. When I do this, regardless of
> which dog it is, they always come because they think I have some
> food to give them. He didn't. I called again but he refused to
> come. I suddenly knew, in my spirit, it wasn't a dog at all.
> Half asleep, I decided that he would just follow me back into our
> bedroom, if he was a dog, that is, so I left the kitchen. I did
> not hear him follow.

> The next day, I asked my wife which dog had not been hooked
> up to his leash near the bed. She said, "None. They were all
> hooked up for the night."
>
> "Are you sure?" I asked.

> "I'm positive," she replied. "They were definitely all
> hooked up last night."

> So, I ask you, what had been in the kitchen with me? It was
> most certainly real; there is no doubt about that. No, I wasn't
> dreaming. The sounds of clicking toenails could not have been
> more real to me as they tapped on the hard floor surface. I know
> now what it was. Do you?
>
> "Do such things really happen?"
>
> Yes.
>
> "Were you afraid?"
>
> No, I said I thought it was funny.
>
> "Why?"
>
> Because I was being allowed, by the True Lord Jesus Christ,
> to be tested.
>
> "Why didn't you send him away?"
>
> I didn't have to. He had no right to be there so I knew he
> wouldn't stay. I just went back to bed and ignored him. Nothing
> more happened.
>
> "why didn't he talk to you or make frightening noises?"
>
> He couldn't.
>
> "Why not?"
>
> Because, I had not given him any right to attempt to gain a
> foothold in my life.
>
> "Doesn't it bother you that there are likely demons in your
> house?"
>
> No, because there aren't demons in my house. Once and awhile
> they may show up but they can't stay because they have no right to
> remain. Plus, you see, I have the authority of the True Lord
> Jesus Christ over them. I don't have this authority because I say
> so, I have it because Jesus says so. Any more questions?
