Sunday Teaching 5: Opening Demonic Doors With Your Lustful Thoughts

 

This is a very interesting topic to me because it's something that happen almost everyday of our life.From lustful thought  to lustful desires then it leads to lustful actions.
Do you know that most time the enemy (working through unclean spirits) approaches a person at a time of need in their life, and gets the person to agree with the demon's bait?.
This bait can be very appealing to the person and it can even seem harmless and beneficial at that point and time. The enemy is known to disguise himself as an angel of light, as to deceive people into giving him access into their lives: 2 Corinthians 11:14, "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light."

 It is so important to understand how the enemy works, so that we can equip ourselves to stand against his schemes. Continue.....

Paul said that they were not ignorant of Satan's devices... this is something that many in the church today cannot claim: 2 Corinthians 2:11, "Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices."
The thing I've found with unclean spirits, is that they always offer some kind of 'sweet reward' to get a person to grant them access into their life.
It could be forbidden sexual pleasure, supernatural power or knowledge of some kind (mind control, fortune telling, etc.), even healing (through occult powers) and physical defense (martial arts). Jesus made it clear that even evil thoughts can defile us (make us vulnerable for spiritual infection): Matthew 15:19-20, "For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornication, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: These are the things which defile a man..."
When we yield ourselves, whether it be our thoughts, actions and so fourth to the enemy, we are giving him access to our souls (mind, will and emotions)
When we leave the Word of God behind and seek to satisfy our own fleshly appetites, it can give unclean spirits access into our lives.
 Most people do not even realize what they are getting themselves into, and then they wonder why they have lost control in that area of their lives afterwards. In case you missed last week teaching you can click here
