The last time I try seeking God. I was bombarded with temptations and negative thoughts from the enemy. I couldn't overcome it and fell. What can I do?

I would go away from that thought and say "im not going to dwell on it Jesus please take it from me" and imagining actually handing the thought to Jesus trusting He will take care of it

Satan does not only attack the weak. He will also tempt those who are strong in Christ. If you feel his temptations, let this encourage you and make you even stronger. Why should you feel encouraged? Satan knows your heart is with Jesus and he knows he needs to act quickly to take your focus from Christ. Why else would he go on the offensive? Ephesians 6:13-17.

It's attack was more than just thoughts it was like a demon constantly whispering into my ears. I need to find a way to shut them down.

Maybe read revelation 18 out loud. Rebuke them and then go on a fast seems like a good combo

I agree with Moni on this one. I have read revelations 18 in the past out loud and they don't like that. Also fasting is good because devils don't have endurance and will become weaker so you have to combine it with prayer.

Demons cannot dwell in the soul of a person where the Holy Spirit resides. So, if the Holy Spirit indwells in a person, a demon will not and cannot enter. This is scriptural. And this is knowledge that can comfort you and reassure you if the Holy Spirit truly resides within you. If you have accepted Christ and the Holy Spirit has moved within you, and you have been saved by Gods grace, you will not be possessed by demons. As far as hearing them whisper in your ears....my advice would be to seek out a trusted pastor or other trusted person of faith who has experience with casting demons out of a persons life. I have never personally had demons whispering to me, nor have I felt their presence upon myself....I have felt the presence of demons around others and in places, and I know they can be cast away. It seems like you will definitely want to act quickly to eliminate these nasty spirits, and then do a thorough spiritual evaluation through prayer and meditation upon scripture (with others who can help guide you and support you if possible) so that you can pinpoint the reason demons are seeking you out at this point, and put an end to it permanently.

The whisper sound more like a mental voice

Do you think these are auditory hallucinations? You may want to get an evaluation, just to be safe. This is very treatable. Ill also lift you up in prayer.

I am sure that demons reside in the soul, its the Holy Spirit that resides in your spirit. Our souls can be afflicted therefore demons dwell in our soul.... the soul can be wicked and evil, that is a result because of our disobedience. I suppose you need to pray to seek understanding about this. Most the time the attacks from demons are coming from within, that is why the scripture says we wrestle within, there is a chance it's from the outside, but you'll know if its internal because when you pray against it, you might get deliverance and God will refine you ect
Just get into the spirit, with prayer and fasting, be righteous, focus on Jesus, we can overcome with the power of God working in us and through us, pray for child like faith, Take a stand in Christ and pray fire on the demons and destruction on them, Ask God to destroy anything that gets in the way between you and Him, that he may refine you with His fire, so that you will be a shiny, clean, pure vessel that He can use for His glory and purposes. That He will lead you into all the fullness that He has for you, that whatever suffering you have to go through to get into His perfect will, that you'll rejoice and thank Him for making you more like Jesus

Yes, when you have the baptism of the holy spirit, then demons no longer have access to your spirit. however, they can still talk to you, give you emotions, plague your body with problems (like itchiness, sickness, etc.), and still attach themselves to your body to so something evil to you. demons can still afflict you, even when you have the holy spirit. so what can you do if they are constantly talking to you and giving you thoughts? simple: torture them. as for me, i ask God to set them on fire and then he does. you know... demons dont talk that much when on fire. also, it is normal for demons to annoy and torment you throughout the day. dont be surprised if you have to deal with multiple of them every day.
