Did you know that one of the ways a Christian can open himself or herself up to the devil is by believing his lies? When someone believes God’s truth, he opens himself up for God’s Spirit to work in him. If, on the other hand, he believes satan’s lies, the devil can gain a foothold in and ultimately manipulate his life. This is why you should judge and scrutinize everything you hear by God’s Word, and never accept satan’s opinion about anything.
Demons can come into someone’s life through fear because like begets like; you attract to yourself what’s already in your spirit. If you have faith, you attract the spirit of faith. If you have fear, you attract the spirit of fear, and fear brings demons into a person’s life. Fear is actually faith in satan’s ability; it’s faith in the ability of evil to defeat you. That’s why you should never allow fear in your heart, the same way you should never allow unbelief, bitterness, and anger. These are all tools of the adversary, which can open a door for satan to plunder people’s lives.
Prayer
Dear Father, I thank you for the power of your Word and its ability to transform, purify, strengthen me, and build my faith strong! I give no room to doubt and unbelief, but believe and receive your truths always! My heart is continually being purified and enlightened by your Word, and satan has nothing in me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
