Do Not Give a Place To the Devil Ephesians 4:27

Ephesians 4:27 admonishes all believers in Jesus Christ, not to give a place to the devil.  As a direct result of our anger because when we lose control of our own emotions, the devil has won a victory! The devil is a thief who comes only to rob steal kill and destroy us.  If we give the devil even one inch or one meter, he will take a whole mile from us.

The devil comes to steal our joy our peace and our fellowship with Jesus Christ and fellow believers. The devil comes to kill us. He knows full well he cannot destroy our spirit. Because he cannot rob us of our everlasting life! But he can kill our minds and destroy our souls during this life only!

The devil comes to destroy us he can destroy our families, our homes, neighborhoods for example. The human family is what God has based the foundation of  human society. Some of his worse assaults has been to destroy the family units. Usually he accomplishes it via absentee fathers and/or mothers.

The devil is the world's greatest lairs of all times. He is murderer from the beginning of time and a liar. He hates God, His Holy Angels, His Heavenly and His Earthly Saints! By destroying God's created beings, he can strike back at His own Creator!  He was a usurper who wanted to kick God off of His throne and take His place!  He lead one third of his angels against God!

He was the snake in the Garden of Eden who deceived Eve. And who caused Adam to also sin against God! Adam and Eve were forgiven. Why because sin already existed! However, God cannot forgive Satan, because sin originated through him alone. Neither can He forgive his fallen angles or demonic spirits! Resist the devil and he shall flee from you! Bound, the strong man, the devil himself!

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name!
