Hello Greatness,
During the pandemic, I had episodes of panic attacks that made me so depressed. I knew how I felt was more than the normal feeling of concern for what was happening globally, this was too much as it began affecting my mind, I couldn’t pray or sleep well. Then one day, in desperation I cried out to God for his help, and he told me I had allowed the spirit of fear take hold of my mind and I asked him how, he said I have been feasting on the news on corona virus and it’s woes and so given an entry point for the Spirit of fear to torment me.
I immediately repented, rebuked it and decided from that day to switch off from the news and daily death recordings I was following and made do with the normal information I needed for work. I replaced the news with other Godly and helpful resources and in no time I felt much better and delivered from panic attacks. I got back my prayer life and joy
I call entry points loop holes or a space where things can gain entrance into your life with or without your permission.
We need to know that there is an invisible realm, which is as real as this physical space we call earth.
The invisible only becomes visible when they take the form that makes them recognizable on earth via our physical senses
Let me break this down in clear terms. Spirit cannot be seen in the physical realm because they have no external body that makes them legal inhabitants of the earth. Hence there is a quest for an entry point in which they can gain access to any body in order for them to be in full operation on earth.
Can I shock you a little? Even the holy spirit needs a body, this is why you are referred to as his temple. Don’t get me wrong you can feel their presence and see their effect all around depending on how sensitive you spirit man is but all their activities are still limited without a body medium for transmission.
All spirit needs your consent to come in.There are certain things we do that gives them legal ground to walk in legally with or without our knowledge. I call them points of legal entry.
There are certain negative actions that automatically invite an unclean spirit to come in. Like I said previously Spirit needs a body to operate on earth, therefore they take advantage of any loop hole to rush in their numbers to any unfortunate body,infact just one entry of one spirit will open the gate to thousands of them.
It reminds me of a biblical story of the mad man of gadarene. He had a main spirit and many other affiliated spirits which came in as squatters and floaters to occupy the bed space in the man life When the mad man was asked by Jesus, the chief demon occupant who had the legal bed space answered and said “we are many”
This simply tells me that when you allow one, you allow many
So what activities allow you to open your life unconsciously to this kind of nasty unwanted visitors?
So these nasty visitors gain entry and can rent any part of your life they seem fit for example your mind, your emotions, your health etc. to cause all sorts of evokes. Let me hold this thought for now, and begin to explain activities people do that may open them up for entry of unwanted guests.
One of which is living a life of sin .Are you living neck deep in sin, or playing around the balconies of a known sin, then you may be opening your life up for illegal demonic occupants.
For instance – premarital sex is a good example. The spirit of lust walks in legally and sits down comfortably, it then empowers simple urges that you would have normally been able to resist,you now find it more hard to resist simple urges. Why? The spirit lust has staged a stronghold, in addition to this he invites others spirit for a party. So you no longer struggle only with a compelling urge to defile your body with sexual activities but other associated issues like pornography,depression,anger,procrastination, failure’.Etc.
Are you getting this gist?
Before you think it is just sexual sin, all forms of sins are capable of doing the same.
For instance, gossiping attracts spirits of envy, strife, jealousy, hatred, bitterness and death.
They begin to play out on your health and even in your relationship with others.
This is why the bible shuns all appearances of evil.
Don’t fall for the bait. There are unclean spirits waiting to take over.
Apart from sin, Covenants made by any member of your bloodline on your behalf can also give them legal right to make attempts to come in.
But for time, I could have gone further with more instances.
I would like you to know that when you give your life to Jesus, allow the Holy Spirit gains entry into your life, and you fellowship constantly with him in your quiet time (among other spiritual activities such as fasting etc), this helps His Spirit become more and more activated and resident within you.
You don’t need to be afraid, even when you do something wrong, the blood of Jesus is for your protection. Quickly amend your ways, confess your sin to God and appropriate the blood in your life.
As a child of God you cannot afford to be careless, you need to be alert. A child of God who has accepted Jesus as lord and savior can not be possessed by demons but may be oppressed and depressed by them if there is an entry point
Give no room to the devil, scriptures encourage us.
Are you battling with some form of addictions or patterns you are struggling to break? It is time to firstly close your entry points from further entry and drive those in out with your new superior knowledge of the finished work of Christ. Light cannot exist with darkness. Jesus is in you. He is the light. So any other spirit is illegal and they have no choice but to run out of their hiding place.
If you don’t give them quit notice by repenting and denouncing they will mess you up, even your spiritual life will not be strong because you will keep falling in and out of willful sin that will continue to deflate your spiritual capacity
Summit to the holy spirit ,ask him to purge you, and clean up your room. But you must also begin to fill it with the right stuff.dont just leave it clean and empty, it needs to be packed with the right things
Are your prone to gossip, begin to occupy your self with right kind of things like listening to podcasts, reading a book etc .Are your prone to sex outside or before marriage, don’t just say I will not do it again, instead get into accountability, maintain a fired up spiritual life, keep your mind busy with Godly and positive things. Don’t keep your mind bare without substance, these spirits mostly come back to check and when they see it clean and vacant they come in more stronger than how they left
A weak spiritual life is an entry point as well
Walk out your salvation with fear and trembling
Block all entry point.
