They have all the manifestations of their nature roaring through their consciousness. Evil spirits are disembodied beings. They are as real as you or I except they don’t have a physical body and are bound to the spirit dimension of spirit. They are not either in the earth visible nor are they in heaven spiritually.

When the evil spirit is in you, it wants to manifest himself by its nature. If it is bitterness, it wants to use you as a medium of expression and when you allow it that becomes your sin. You need to repent for allowing it to become part of your life. You need to repent to God for allowing an evil spirit or principality or spiritual wickedness in high places and not be controlled by the Holy Spirit in your life otherwise you cannot be used as an oracle for God. You become an oracle for the devil through his kingdom. Example, has anyone ever rejected you and you lashed out in anger at them? Then you just participated in their sin. It was not love and you were not in the spirit but in the flesh manifesting anger at the other person.
