When we buy into these lies and agree with the enemy, thereby ceding control, that area of our loves becomes a stronghold, which the enemy vigorously defends and retains control of. As a result, the enemy lied to you that no one could be trusted and you are on your own. You in turn then become fiercely independent, so much so that you have trust issues, which has then resulted in your struggling to trust God’s promises in your life! On this foundation, the enemy then begins to build brick by brick, a wall of lies, inaccurate ideas about the person of God, erroneous interpretations of Scripture, prideful thoughts, and distorted perceptions of how God sees us and feels about us when we sin.įor example, someone you trusted, who should have played a father-figure role in your life deeply betrayed your trust and hurt you). It often starts with a wound we experience, a hurt or disappointment that makes our heart fertile ground for seeds of lies to be planted. So, all that leads to the question: How does the enemy construct a spiritual stronghold in our lives? Satan and his demons would rather deceive people in relative silence by shooting constant accusatory arrows against our hearts and our minds so that we feel so beat up emotionally that we barely have the capacity to ponder the truth of God’s word, which says the exact opposite of all the enemy claims.Ģ Corinthians 4:4 says, “The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.” If that’s his strategy in the lives of those who haven’t trusted in Christ, then his strategy in the life of those who HAVE trusted in Christ is to confuse, frustrate, and even steal the truth of God that has been deposited in their lives,and ultimately attempt to mar the image of God in our lives.

One movie character captured it best when he expressed, “The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.” Those overt displays of his presence only end up showing his hand, which is the last thing he wants to do. It’s natural to think that these terms refer to only those cases where a person is wild-eyed, spewing obscenities, speaking in an other-worldly voice, and terrorizing people like in horror movies we’ve seen.īut the enemy of our souls, Satan is a lot more sly than that.
