Introduction
The Devil is on the loose trying to kill, steal and destroy everything on this earth. Quite frankly the devil was always on the loose, however, he has intensified his efforts more than ever. He has a goal to achieve which is to kill, steal and destroy. He will try to pollute and destroy your mind. He will destroy your family. He will discourage you and create panic in your life.
The Mind
Never have we seen so many people on the loose with mental issues. While there are many reasons for mental issues, one prominent reason is the demonic attack on the minds of individuals. He is trying to control your mind and because he controls your minds, you end up doing things that your mind tells you to do. The battle indeed starts in the mind. The mind is telling you to kill, the mind is telling you to steal and your mind is telling you to destroy.
All of these murders that are taking place are driving so much fear in the community, this cannot be normal. Something must be wrong with the minds of individuals. How a person with a normal mind can take the life of another?
Listen here run to God. The minute you start feeling abnormal, call on the name of Jesus. At his name, the enemy will flee. Try it. Even if nothing happens immediately, don’t give up, keep calling the name of Jesus. More importantly, find a church and talk with the pastor and tell him or her how you feel. You can be delivered if you run to God. After all, God has given you a sound mind.
Stay grounded in the word of God so you will not have doubts. Furthermore don’t allow your mind to become a reprobate mind. Renew your mind on a daily basis.
The Family
The Family is a foundation that was started from the beginning of time with Adam and Eve. Families are being destroyed. Marriage is under the attack like never before. Sibling rivalry is under attacked. The relationship between children and parents are under attack. The Definition of a marriage is changing. For some, it is no longer a man and his wife. It is man and man and woman and woman.
When the family unit is destroyed, the foundation will fall. Therefore, we must protect and maintain our family through reconciliation and forgiveness.
The Impact
When you mind is distorted and your family is divided, you become very discouraged. When you become discouraged, you feel like giving up and you may make some quick decisions based on your present conditions. Some of us will succumbed to the temptation by the Devil because he will make some promises to you and those promises look so great. Remember how he tricked Eve and ultimately Eve and Adam were kicked out of the Garden.
Run to God
The best place to be when the devil is on the loose is to run to God. When you run to God and stay with God, you are protected. Ephesians 6:10 “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”
Conclusion
I conclude with quotations from the book written by Sun Tzu “If you know your enemy and you know yourself, you need not fear the results of a hundred battles. If you know yourself, but not your enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither your enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
