THE ENEMY IN-A-ME
Many men go through great lengths in their lives getting prepared to ght
physical foes, but that's not the type of enemy that we are ghting. Now if
you have gotten saved, your battles have become spiritual battles. You are
You are not fortunate enough to have a physical foe. The bible tells us that;
our ght is not with people. It is against the leaders and the powers and the
spirits of darkness in this world. It is against spiritual forces that control evil in
the heavenly realm. [Ephesians 6:12]
Let me just take some time here and teach you about your foe. You are
ghting a spirit. And if you don't learn some tactics and some spiritual
warfare, you are not going to overcome the situations that you are supposed
to overcome. You're trying to ght the enemy in the esh, and you don't
understand that the enemy is killing you in your spirit. You need to nd out
how to get the victory in Jesus' name.
Now before you call me crazy just listen to what I have to say. There are some
that teach that demons are fallen angels that fell when Satan fell from
heaven. I really don't embrace this theology but you can if you choose. The
bible says that angels have bodies. They have celestial or what’s called
heavenly bodies. [1 Corinthians 15:39-41]
And anytime a creature has a body it cannot inhabit or possess another
body. Isn't there a law that says two objects cannot occupy the same space
at the same time? That was the problem that Jesus had, when he was
calling his disciples to be baptized and lled with the Holy Ghost. He said;
“But I tell you the truth, it is better for you that I go away. When I go away, I
will send the Helper to you. If I do not go away, the one who is to help you
will not come. [John 16:7] What He was saying is that, as long as I am in a
body, I cannot come and possess your body. It takes a spirit to possess a
body.
I believe that demons are disembodied spirits, from what most theologians
called the pre-Adamic world or some call the gap theory. I won’t go into
detail or comment on either because there are some things that are to hard
to take for some people, we can miss part of the truth and hurt the cause of
Christ is the Healer
