💁🏻 Concept: Demonic Influence

The term demonized (δαιμονίζομαι) refers to being under demonic influence. In Scripture, this term is often associated with more extreme cases of demonic control, affecting a person’s mind, body, and spirit. However, the Bible makes it clear that Christ has ultimate power over the demonic realm. While believers cannot be possessed, they can experience spiritual attacks. This is why we must remain vigilant and rely on God’s power.

Some of the demonic influences: 

1. Distortion of the truth

2. Spiritual bondage to sin

3. Hatred of Christians and the church

4. Apathy and hardness of heart

5. Fleshly thinking and worldliness

6. Addiction to drugs, sex, pornography, orgy, fornication, etc. 

7. Obsession to occultism and false religions

8. Witchcraft, divination, spiritism, New Age, astrology, horoscopes, tarot cards, faith healing, necromancy, and other similar practices 

📖 Bible Readings: Mark 5:1-20

(Matthew 12:43-45; Luke 10:17-20; 1 Peter 5:8-9; Ephesians 6:10-18; James 4:7; 2 Corinthians 10:3-5; Acts 26:17-18; Colossians 2:15; 1 Corinthians 6:18, 10:13; 2 Corinthians 10:4-5, 11:14; 2 Timothy 2:22; 1 John 4:4; Revelation 12:9-12, 16:14)

Heavenly Father, thank You for the victory we have in Christ. I acknowledge that the enemy seeks to deceive, destroy, and distract, but I stand firm in Your truth.
