MFM Daily Devotional 15 March 2022 MESSAGE

As we continue the topic we began yesterday, it is important for you to know why it is necessary to close every evil doorway in your life.

Remember, the Spirit of God cannot dwell in a defiled vessel or polluted human life. You are either for God or the devil. It becomes necessary therefore that all strangers be evacuated. Sometimes, you are conscious and at other times unconscious of their presence in your life. Whatever the mode of entry may be, what matters most is identifying the doorways and dealing with them in God’s own way.

Other doorways include all the strange dedications at birth, idolatrous names, rituals, evil family celebrations, satanic gifts and all. What of strange jewelries, demonic attachments to your hair, eyes, legs, especially when these products have been offered to local gods before sales?

The Bible in Joshua chapter 7 tells the story of Achan who took a Babylonian garment from the spoils of war and hid it contrary to divine instructions. He brought calamity on the entire nation. The wrath of God was pacified only when Achan and his entire family were stoned to death.

Have you ever pondered about the consequences of the rituals and sacrifices that you participated in, or that were done on your behalf? All the strange holy soap, holy water, bath at the rivers or on beaches open doorways and constitute a legal ground through which the demons that are behind such evil acts would enter into your life because their token is already present.

Think deeply, beloved, of how you have lived or are living your life. What actions, thoughts or objects could have opened the door of your life to satanic pollution? There is a need for deep spiritual cleansing so that the doorways and gates can be left opened for the King of glory to come in and reign in your life.

However, uncompromising holiness is the prerequisite for total deliverance; only those with “clean hands and pure heart… ” are qualified to issue the holy command in Psalm 24:7-10.

Decide to be free and Jesus will remain Lord over your life!
