THE ENEMY IN-A-ME
These things are standing as if they were an idol in your life or a god. But the
devil is a liar. [John 8:44] You need to tell every high place that it is coming
down in the name of Jesus. Lust, perverted sex, everything that's messing
up your life and your marriage, and the things that are causing you not to
bring your children into alignment with Gods’ will. You need to tell it that it’s
coming down.
MARK 5:7
He shouted at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me,
Jesus, Son of the Highest God? In God’s name don’t torture me!”
Now Listen, the mere presence of the Lord torments demons and they

glad God deals with me. I'm glad that there's something that keeps me
from going back to the old places, from hanging with the old crowd that
tells me I don't need to talk to that person anymore. I'm glad that there is
something on the inside of me that makes me apologize. I'm glad that there
is something on the inside of me that makes me want to change.
MARK 5:8
For Jesus had said to him, “Come out of this man, you unclean
spirit!”
Come out of him. This was a good man with a bad spirit. All he needed was
