Slain in the Spirit information


People slain in the Spirit after receiving prayer from faith healer and Catholic priest Fernando Suarez

Slain in the Spirit or slaying in the Spirit are terms used by Pentecostal and charismatic Christians to describe a form of prostration in which an individual falls to the floor while experiencing religious ecstasy. Believers attribute this behavior to the power of the Holy Spirit. Other terms used to describe the experience include falling under the power, overcome by the Spirit, and resting in the Spirit.[1] The practice is associated with faith healing because individuals are often slain while seeking prayer for illness.
