In Ephesians 4:27 we read:
“Do not give the devil a foothold.”
The devil can only reach our life if we open the doors to him.
What are these doors?
These are disobedience, discouragement, satanic covenants and certain objects, and ignorance.
1. Disobedience:
Because of his disobedience to God, Satan was cursed and cast out of heaven.
Being himself cursed because of his disobedience, Satan wants us, too, to disobey God so that we are cursed like him.
« If you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God… You shall be cursed… » (Deuteronomy 28:15-68)
And if we are cursed by God, Satan receives us in his camp and begins to manipulate us.
2. Discouragement:
If we become discouraged, Satan finds that we no longer have either strength or hope. He then takes the opportunity to enter into our lives and to whisper in our ears diabolical solutions that drive us into the bondage of evil and sin.
3. The Satanic Covenants and certain satanic objects:
Through occult practices and through certain satanic objects that we knowingly or unknowingly keep in our homes or carry on our person, we make covenants or contract with Satan.
It is this alliance with the devil that authorizes him to change our life and our destiny as he wishes.
God had warned the children of Israel of this:
« … Let no one be found among you who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft… »(Deuteronomy 18:9-12)
4. Ignorance:
Many people pray for a change in their life without knowing that they are doing things against God every day, or that they have objects that open doors to the enemy.
« My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge… »(Hosea 4:6)
The enemy uses the ignorance of men to bring them down.
If we ignore his tactics and strategies, the devil will invade us so easily.
PRAYER :
Our Father who art in heaven, give us to be careful that we do not open doors to the devil in our life.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.
