Demons
[The devil] was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. ––John 8:44
Demons are patient and persistent in their quest to gradually insinuate their influence on your thinking to gain control of a piece of your life. They will work against you just as your flesh and the world will. They will encourage gray areas and complaints about discomfort or loss, and then they will offer easy solutions. They will exploit your conflictedness and pounce on your negative emotions with a laundry list of suggestions provided by Satan himself. They will help you arrange your thinking in such a way so that sin looks really good and totally logical.
The demonic realm likes to intrude and invade your life with a lot of bad thinking. These guys are not from the neighborhood. They are salesmen that have been studying your film. They know the character of men and exactly what scenes to play to among our fantasies, pride, and insecurities. They learned from the master. They are on your porch because they smell disagreement and rebellion in your spirit. Like bloody chum attracts a school of sharks.
You know it’s Satan and his murderous angelic beings when the suggestions, thoughts, fears, discouragement, temptations, and core conflicts are getting magnified in your imagination. Then there will be an offering of the reality that is better than any God is offering. It’s not just a solution; it’s a voluptuous solution—that plays into your feelings and overrides your faith. There are no cease fires, no lulls, no moments of relaxation, and no truces. The reason is that the ever-present flaws in your character can produce conflicts that change your relationships with God and people.
Our only hope? Bathing our mind and spirit in His freedom-bringing Word; praying with the power of the Holy Spirit and with Jesus as our Advocate; turning your will—your thoughts, emotions, and temptations—over to our perfect heavenly Father. You can do this, but don’t do it alone!
Father, You have given me the power of the Holy Spirit and a choice.
One thing I noticed before I was saved by the Grace of God is that the further away from God you are the more power the demons have I stepped so far away from God that I couldn’t even recognize my enemy and as I unknowingly welcomed them in they made it seem as they were no where near, mainly by impersonating as your inner voice but it came to where I could hear myself speak over myself with not just one familiar voice but many, they can and will plague your mind because they can’t touch your heart and they’ll poison your brain so that it’ll spread like an infection into your heart and once your heart has turned black they know they’ve won, Thabk you God for pulling me out of my darkness and bringing me back into the light so I may follow you Father and build a relationship and show my love for you Father please give me the strength, courage, and knowledge to help others who need your love and eternal and internal peace thank you Christ, Amen🙏💜

The light shines bright in the darkness and the darkness cannot over come it. Amen for Jesus. The savior of the world loves us and care about us and does not want anyone to be in the dark. His marvelous light is there so everyone can see. There’s a seat at the table, and he is preparing a place for you in heaven. I pray the lost ones out there will open their eyes and find it. Thank you, loving Jesus, AMEN!!!
I disagree with your last statement, “ don’t do it alone”. As a believer, God gives us the sword of the Spirit to fight the enemy ( Eph. 6). His Word, the Word of our Father in Heaven will fight for us, the Truth of Scripture, is how we stand against the gates of hell. Yes, it’s nice to have other Christians standing with you, but God has given us all that is needed to refute Satan himself. We are called to put on all God’s armor when confronted with an enemy attack. Nothing that of ourselves, but God’s Word alone is sufficient.
