TOPIC: DEMONS WORKING ON HUMAN HEART.

TEXT: Matt. 15:8-9, Matt. 12: 34-37, Gen. 4:1-9, Matt. 15:18-19.

Some demons specialize in the heart of man. These demons gain access to people’s lives when they see any negative /ungodly thoughts (i.e. lust, lie, pride, evil thoughts, etc.) in the heart of the person. Then they will come in and work through those evil thoughts to push such persons into sinful acts. We have several organs in the human body (eyes, nose, tongue, mouth, ear, etc.). All these organs have a sensor, how you use them or what comes to them, will determine what they will send to the brain. The brain will now show the advantages and the pleasure it gives to the flesh and will send it to the heart, to store it and act on it. (Matt. 6:22-23, Prov. 4:23).

It is what you store in the heart that determines your actions. If what you store in your heart is good, God/Angel will work with it, but if it is evil and it is not quickly deleted from the production room of man (the heart); then demons will use it at any available condition or interaction to push the person into sin, by fulfilling such evil thoughts (sinful practices) (Matt. 4:1-11)

THE HEART

•Can be polluted or purged.

•Can be controlled by demons.

•Is the storehouse and the engine room of man.

•Is your state and stand before God, man, and demons (Prov.17:10).

*Evil thoughts are like offers or counsels from demons. The moment you accept and store them in your heart, you become their slave and instrument of ungodliness and sinful practices (1 Cor. 10:12).

AGENTS OF HEART POLLUTION (Matt. 6:22, Dan. 1:8)

*Immoral words, 

*Ungodly videos and songs, 

*Ungodly social or TV programs, 

*Seductive and sexy fashion/dressing which shows “cleavage, laps, and sexual organs

*Hate speech, 

*Ungodly advice, 

*Bad experiences, etc.

DANGEROUS MINDSET (Prov. 4:23)

•Anxiety to make money by all means

•Having a type of person you must marry

•The desire for worldly things

•Hatred and bitterness against your enemies or offenders
