Neither give place to the devil.
- Ephesians 4:27
Paul the apostle wrote a book of admonishment to the folks in Ephesus. He knew they were born again but they need to understand the new life they are in now and they should bE encouraged not to go back to their old way of life. He told them what is expected of them. In the 27th verse of the 4th chapter, Apostle Paul exhort them not to give the devil a chance in their life.
So many things happen in our lives, people offend us, we are been back stabbed, those who are to be there for us disappoint. We felt bitter and resentment towards those folks. Apostle Paul advise that while it's okay to be angry, we shouldn't let the devil have a stronghold in our lives through that.
So many relationships, careers, education, glory has been destroyed and messed up because we couldn't handle well the hurt that people has done to us.
The devil is so cunning that given even the slightest space, he will make use of it. We must learn to guide ourselves from the wiles and whims of the devil. We must understand the devil is actively looking for a way into our life. We must guard our salvation jealously. He wants to destroy your marriage, he wants to take your job, he wants to disintegrate your family; will you let him do that? Of course not. Which is why you must sober and alert. Pray without season. Discern situation through the word of God. Don't always be angry, don't let Little disagreement go unresolved in your marriage. Pray for your family members.
I pray for you that this day, the devil will not gain a foothold in your life, family, relationship. You will be a victor, an overcomes and a conquer in Jesus Name.
Good Morning and have a Good Friday.
