GIVE NO ROOM TO THE DEVIL
Text: Eph 4:26-27
By: Adeaga O. Favour

You cannot play with fire and expect not to be burned. Breaking the hedge and expecting God to keep you is giving room for the serpent to bite you. One of the things that affected Eve was her discussion with the devil in the garden (Gen 3:1-5).

When you know your weak point, you guide it jealously. For examples, if watching a sexually arousing movie will trigger your emotions, you don't have to watch it and if you don't have financial integrity, why accept to keep others' money for them.

From 1Pt 5:8, we are admonished to be watchful because the devil is roaming about seeking for whom to devour. Never make your life accessible to him. A third party in your relationship can be dangerous. By all means, let not the devil have a space.

REFLECTION FOR TODAY:
The devil needs a loop hole to operate, be watchful always.

PRAY:
Father, every access point of the devil into my life, I block it in Jesus name.
