“They’re out to get you; there’s demons closing in on every side.
They will possess you unless you change the number on your dial…..”
It’s that time of year again! Halloween season is in full swing and so is the “Thriller” memorial to the King of Pop, Michael Jackson.
People all over the world are simultaneously singing the “Thriller” lyrics and dressing up as ghouls to celebrate evil in flash mob mode.
As I looked over the photo gallery of Michael Jackson’s life, something startled me. In his last years, he had literally taken on the image of one of the zombies in the “Thriller” video. His striving for perfection through plastic surgery took him in the wrong direction.
In his final bio, he stated he only wished for two things in life; to be loved and to have the biggest selling song in history.
One wish was granted at a very high price.
I believe Michael lost his way after “Thriller” was released. His inability to love himself left him empty and unable to receive the love he craved.
Music was his idol, and “Thriller” sat on the top of that idol.
There is a biblical principle that what you focus upon you become.
But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 Cor. 3:18
As believers, we have a choice! We can meditate on God, and daily be renewed in his image and likeness or we can meditate on the world and lose the brilliance of his glory.
What Michael focused on he became.
The sad part is he regretted co-partnering with demonic realm after “Thriller” was released. He was a practicing Jehovah Witness at the time and tried to have the video destroyed. It was too late, the VH1 world had already gotten it out to the masses. The torment was sealed, Michael Jackson’s name would always be associated with his biggest selling song.
Halloween Opens the Door For Demonic Torment
We are responsible for training our children up the way that they should go, and Halloween is not the funfest you want your children focusing on into adulthood.
You may think dressing them up as bunnies and angels make the holiday acceptable, but it doesn’t.
Your children are participating in a night dedicated to evil with fear lurking on every side. I learned this lesson the hard way. My personal testimony of how this torment followed my daughter home is in a blog article on who was really being tricked at Halloween.
If you catch yourself humming along to these lyrics this year, repent, quickly and break any word curse that you have spoken through song. Often times we sing along and really don’t know what we are speaking into the atmosphere. Here is another portion of the words Vincent Price spoke in “Thriller”:
“Darkness falls across the land
The midnight hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To terrorize y’all’s neighborhood
And whosoever shall be found
Without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell
And rot inside a corpse’s shell.”
“Thriller” didn’t make it to the biggest selling album in history without a little help from the dark side, and demons love it when you glorify them. Imagine the demonic whirlwind released when Flash Mobs around the world sing that song in unison! Maybe it’s time for the church to rise up in those types of coordinated worship events. Just something to ponder.

This was very well written! Very true RIP MJ it’s so sad how the devil works and how WE play into it without knowing. thank God for decernment!
Brittany,
Thank you! It was difficult watching Michael Jackson lose himself over the years. His insecurity drove him deeper and deeper into the demonic realm. A great loss! Blessings, Phyllis
Music industry is a world infiltrated by many disreputable people, with dark souls and intents. Michael Jackson was their victim from a very young age. Being trapped there as a young child is a sad situation that happens to many of our celebrities. They wanted to use Michael Jackson in wrong ways, in order to manipulate the peoples through his art – because he was so talented and famous ! A song like Thriller should not have existed indeed. Michael was under control by those devilish people. But he was a fervent God believer and as soon as he was able to, he tried to get free from their grip and to denounce the occult side of the music industry. Sadly, the stranglehold was tight and that’s when trouble began for him (slander, wrong rumors and accusations).
Study his songs, his choreography, his music videos ; read between the lines and you’ll be amazed of how much he tried to warn us about the dark sides of this world, how much he taught us through symbols, biblical references and so on. Listen to “Speechless” and you’ll feel Divine light and an encounter with God. Read his book “Dancing The Dream”, it is breathtakingly beautiful and so spiritual !
From a very young age, he has always been animated by the wish to help poor, deprived people and sick children. That’s what he has done tirelessly all his life long, becoming the world’s biggest donor as an artist. He also spoke tirelessly about saving the Earth, about helping poor people and sick children, about Peace and Love, encouraging people to follow this path.
We should have helped Michael Jackson and prayed for him, instead of pointing fingers on him. We should have blamed the Devilish ones instead of their victim, who was so courageously braving them alone. As a person very aware of the devilish sides of this world -because of the predators who wanted him- he was relentlessly trying to warn us and to open our eyes, but we were mocking him instead of listening ; slandering him while he went through such a struggle.
Michael Jackson was a profoundly spiritual person, he always had a Bible with him, he studied several religions and met many spiritual counselors. Most people, even his fans, have no idea of how huge and devilish were the issues and people he had to face. He endured so much and eventually paid with his life for having tried to warn us, to keep us away from the darkness and to encourage us on the way to God, Love and Peace. He has done a wonderful job actually, since thousands of people around the world have heard him and spread his message of Love and Peace ; many of them also continue his humanitarian legacy by helping poor people or sick children. Congratulations to them for not having been blinded by the media and by those who portrayed Michael Jackson in wrong, false ways.
Please forget about this painful picture above, where we can see more of a scared, stalked man than of Michael’s real soul. Forget about the outer appearance caused by his skin disease (vitiligo and lupus). Browse photos of him, look deep into his eyes and you’ll find a loving soul, you’ll see his inner beauty. It’s sad that it took me a long time to find out what a beautiful person Michael Jackson was. It’s sad that many people don’t get further than “Thriller” in their knowledge of him. I feel deeply grateful and appreciative of what he endured and what he has done for Humanity and for our Planet.
Cecile, I agree, we should have prayed for Michael. He was tormented and that torment was illustrated in his video “Thriller”. The legacy of “Thriller” is still influencing our youth to glorify demons and emulate them today. Thank you for your comments and for another view of Michael. Blessings, Phyllis
