The truth is the most prevalent of the deja vu experiences in the bible is this:
Whatsoever you would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them.
This is called the "Golden Rule". The repetition is the evidence that God is a god of details and sees your need and meets it.

Actually deja vu is a sort of brain hic-up. We have two types of memory: long-term and short-term memory. Long-term memory is memory that can last between 30 seconds and decades. Short-term or working memory only stores items for less than 30 seconds. Short-term memory usually becomes long-term memory through rehersal (repetition) or meaningful association.
Deja vu comes in when your brain stores a bit of information that is supposed to go into short-term memory directly into the part of the brain that stores long-term memory. Since it's in the long-term part of the brain, we think it's an old memory, perhaps something we experienced a really long time ago. When in reality, it's brand new information, it's just stored in the wrong spot.
Basically, this isn't a theological issue or phenomenon. I'm not aware of any biblical reference to deja vu however, I doubt it's much use to Satan either.

I have come to find out that deja vu isn't deja vu exactly, it is God showing events or things that will happen to you before they happen, to show you that He is in your life and that He is God and that He knows the beginning from the end. He is just showing you He knows all about you and even though some of the deja vus can be silly and seem insignificant they aren't small to God.

first of all... De ja vu is a french phrase, not gonna find it in a Bible that's 2000 years old. De ja vu could almost be compared with a prophecy I suppose, you see something in the future or you recognize it. How can it be of the devil when it isn't harmful, most people don't recognize it till it happens, and the phrase sounds cool! =P

Nothing pertaining to deja-vu. And since deja-vu isn't like a voice in your head telling you what to do, I can't see why it'd be considered diabolic. You can't help having a deja-vu experience, whether you're a Christian or not.

i heard that deja vu is what happens when your heart misses a beat.
im not sure if thats true but i do know that if you go around looking for the devil and God in everything itll drive you crazy. ....therefore it must be the devil. ...ha ha HA! get it? no, too subtle? nm then.

I don't recall any Biblical mention.
It may be neither of God nor of the devil. It may be a function of synapses. There is no explanation for it that I know of. Yet there doesn't seem--at least to me--to be a need to go attributing it to good or evil. Some things just are. Like body functions, y'know?

Just because there's nothing in the Bible about it certainly does not mean it is of the Devil!
It could just be a psychological experience.
