Revelation 12:9 says, “the Devil was cast out into the earth,
& his angels with him.” But Satan & his demons do not simply “float
around.” They look for a “place” to live. Ephesians 4:27 commands you and me as
Christians to not give “place” to the devil. That Greek word is often
translated “room.” Paul was saying, “Don’t give Satan a room - an area of
control - a foothold - ground - in your life.” Usually, when Satan gets a room
in a person’s life, he does it without them even knowing it! He doesn’t come in
because you invite him. He slips in the back door.
How do Satan or his demons
come in? Through:
- Anger
- Bitterness
- Unforgiveness
- Ungratefulness
- Jealousy
- Rebellion
- Disobedience
- Rock music
- Pride
- Etc.
This message has a powerful
demonstration & illustration of how Satan takes a “little ground” in a
person’s life and turns it into a stronghold! The hope of deliverance is also
demonstrated.
