HOW TO BREAK SATAN’S STRONGHOLDS IN YOUR LIFE (EPHESIANS 4:22-31) In last week’s message, we talked about what a difference God makes in the life of a true follower of Christ. We contrasted a life without God, to a life full of God’s grace and power. Yet, there are many believers who might say that they don’t feel all that different, that God is not working fully in their lives.

HOW TO BREAK SATAN’S STRONGHOLDS IN YOUR LIFE (EPHESIANS 4:22-31)

In last week’s message, we talked about what a difference God makes in the life of a true follower of Christ. We contrasted a life without God, to a life full of God’s grace and power. Yet, there are many believers who might say that they don’t feel all that different, that God is not working fully in their lives. The Bible tells us that the reason for this is that we allow Satan to have strongholds in our lives. If we want to experience the full measure of God’s grace and power in our lives, then we must remove the strongholds in our lives that Satan has dug in, and fortified, and is using to defeat us.

It is a tragic fact that there are many believers who get strongholds in their lives. And I believe that there are many people, who are listening to me today, who have in their heart, and in their mind, and in their life, a satanic stronghold. The tragedy of this is that not only is it harming them and wrecking their spiritual life, but they also, themselves, are contaminating the life of their family and the life of their church, because the devil has found an unclean place in that person, and the devil has made a campground, a foul nest, a beachhead, a citadel, a stronghold, there. And he uses that stronghold to war against God and against the work of God.

You are never going to cease grieving the Holy Spirit, you are never going to expunge Satan and get him out of your life, until you take these three steps: repentance, resistance, and renewal.

Click on the play button to hear a message on what these three steps are, and how to apply them to your life. How you shouldn’t try to repent until you are honest and face your sin. Don’t try to resist until you’ve repented. And don’t try to be filled until you resist—until you choose against Satan and yield to God’s blessed Holy Spirit.
