Dear friends, today we will discuss an important topic – how we can protect ourselves from evil spirits in our lives. This is something that we all need in our lives.
The Bible teaches us many valuable lessons on this subject. For example, James 4:7 says, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” How beautiful this is! It reminds us that we are not helpless. When we are close to God, a power comes within us that drives away all evil spirits.
Another excellent piece of advice we get from 1 Peter 5:8-9: “Be sober, be vigilant. Because your adversary the devil, like a roaring lion, walks about seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, firm in the faith.” Here we are reminded that we must always be alert in life. Just as you look ahead when walking on the street, so we must be alert in our spiritual life.
But not only should we be alert, we must also be prepared. Ephesians 6:11 says, “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” It is like a protective armor for our lives. When we are clothed in God’s teaching and love, no evil influence can touch us.
Friends, remember, these words are not just for reading. They must be applied in our lives. For example, when you read a recipe, do you just stop and read it? No, you cook according to it. In the same way, these teachings must be applied in our lives.
I hope this discussion will help you. Remember, you are not alone. God is always with you, and so are we—your friends and fellow travelers. Let us continue this journey together, helping one another, and growing in God’s love.
