Ecclesiastes 9:4-6
4. For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
5. For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
6. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.
Psalm 146:4
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
So even biblically there are no such things as ghosts?

right, there are no ghosts according to the bible.
however, that doens't mean there is no supernatural realm. Christians are very much aware and very much a part of the spiritual realm, and of the battles that occur there all the time .
Ephesians 6:12
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Usually, the idea of ghosts is chalked up to demons who trick people into believeing they are somebody else. a dead relative, etc.

I have read your question twice and tried to find convincing evidence about ghosts. I am not sure I even believe in them, but see nothing in the quote to dispute them. A ghost is not a living breathing organism, but a spirit. So in answer, if there are such things as ghosts, and I not saying there isn't, all this means they can have no control over anything done by God.

You can't take two or three verses and know what they mean until
you are Born-Again(saved).1Co 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
The inly thing that we know is that through history every generation has
believed that there is a God of some kind sun,moon,objects like these.
God gave everybody a consequence and down deep in their heart a empty space is there and only God can fill it and satiffy you.

Biblically, nothing makes sense. What if you saw a ghost, would the bible be thrown out the door?

The Bible says, the dead knows nothing. If you are saved, to be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord.
