One of the powerful plans of the Devil in our generation is how demons get to a home to destroy the godly family setting of father, mother and children. The popular abominable practices of separation, divorce and re-marry, same-sex marriage etc. are the outcomes of demonic presence in a home.
No family is untouchable, but the good news is that demons cannot enter your home without available access. So, today’s message will reveal the loopholes and how to stop demonic influence in your family.
10 Ways Demons Get to a Home and How to Avoid!
1. Watching Ungodly Entertainment
The best entertainment for Christians is listening to gospel inspirational and worship songs by genuine Christ-like musicians.
Movies, music and games from worldly producers glorify violence, witchcraft, deceits, and immoralities of different forms. I can boldly tell you through my spiritual experience that images that go through the eyes are powerful medium for demonic influence against your soul.
King David said in Psalms 101 verse 3: “I will set no wicked thing before my eyes. I have hated the work of those who turn aside; it shall not hold on to me.”
2. Demons visit through Family Crises
Misunderstanding is inevitable in a family, but it must quickly be resolved through wisdom, love and the commandments of the LORD. Demons find it easy to attack a home filled with bitterness, malice or act of unforgiveness among the family members.
3. Lack of Joint Prayers
It is very easy for demonic influences against a home that neglects family altar! My personal experience shows that division is very easy among a family that ignores a prayerful lifestyle. Going to church to pray every Sunday is not as powerful as gathering your family members to pray in your home daily.
4. Presence of unholy objects in the house
I warned you not to be deceived! Many popular objects that are referred to as ‘harmless’ are truly dark spiritual connections to your home like an internet router.
They cast spells on many items such as sculptures or sensual wallpapers you purchase for decoration, dolls or teddy bear, various forms of cosmetics, artificial hair/wigs etc.
You must avoid many objects introduced into the church, such as rosary, wooden cross, holy Mary statue, holy soap, holy water, holy oil, holy handkerchief etc. Any object you hold or respect during prayers as a medium before God is simply idolatry.
5. Spiritual Lukewarmness of the family
Demons get to a home easily if the Christian family are neither hot nor cold. If you want to be a hot Christian family, then focus completely on commandments of the LORD and never embrace any popular worldly practices.
“So, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.” (Revelation 3:16)
6. Love of Money
When father and mother sacrifice all their active time on the altar of money daily, they become rich, but the demonic spirit of mammon will manifest terribly in such home by sucking their peace and unity.
“No one can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.” (Matthew 6:24)
7. Negative Words and Curses
Speaking death, hatred, or curses over family members allow the demons get to a home without stress.
Proverbs chapter 18 verse 21 says: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it shall eat the fruit of it.”
8. Generational Curses
When a repeated pattern like addiction to drugs, witchcraft, immoralities and the likes are not totally broken then the demons will keep coming back in seven folds to such family generation.
Jesus Christ teaches about total cleansing in the book of Matthew chapter 12 verse 43 to 45: “When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he walks through dry places seeking rest and finds none. Then he said, “I will return into my house from where I came out.”
“And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and decorated. Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and live there. And the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so it also shall be to this evil generation.”
9. Social Relationship
If you and your family entertain the free exhibition of worldly friends, false prophets, fake pastors, fortune-tellers and the likes in your home then the atmosphere of your home will be comfortable for the demons.
You and your family should do more of evangelism and make friends with people who are ready to serve God with all their hearts.
10. Home without Holiness
A home without God’s presence will harbor demons. The LORD dwells in a home where all members of the family believe in godliness and they respect their bodies as God’s temple, have a holy soul through obedience to God’s instructions and link their spirits to the Holy Spirit always.
“Jesus answered and said to him, if a man loves Me, he will keep My Word. And My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him.” (John 14:23)
Demons get to a home through act of family disobedience to the instructions of the LORD. I admonish you to uphold holy practice, prayerful lifestyle, listening to gospel inspirational worship songs, bible study and sharing the good news about the salvation of the LORD through Jesus Christ. God Bless you and your family in Jesus name.
