There's the story of how Jacob wrestled with an angel, then there's the story of how I wrestled with a force.
Here's Jacob's Story:
24 Then Jacob was left alone; and a Man wrestled with him until the breaking of day. 25 Now when He saw that He did not prevail against him, He touched the socket of his hip; and the socket of Jacob's hip was out of joint as He wrestled with him. 26 And He said, "Let Me go, for the day breaks."
But he said, "I will not let You go unless You bless me!"
27 So He said to him, "What is your name?"
He said, "Jacob."
28 And He said, "Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed." (Genesis 32:24-28, NKJV)

Here's My Story:
Between 2002-2004, when I was living in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, I was in bed, and a force came over me as though to enter me. And I fought with it and wrestled with it, as though for dominion over my body or my internality. After wrestling with it for a while, the force left me.
