November 1, 2025 – No Space for the Enemy’s Foothold
Sermon: 1213 How to Break Satan's Strongholds in Your Life
Pray Over This
“Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.”
Ponder This
Even after you repent, the devil is not going to walk out of your life. You’re going to have to run him out. If you don’t resist him, he’s not going anywhere. When you repent of the sin, Jesus cancels the debt. Then you say, “Satan, I have given you a place, but I take it back in the name and the authority of Jesus. You have no right, you have no authority, this body of mine is the temple of the Holy Spirit, you are trespassing on my Father’s property, and in the name of Jesus, whose I am and whom I serve, be gone!” And he’ll flee from you. The problem is, if you try to resist the devil with unconfessed sin in your heart and life, he will laugh in your face. He’ll say, “Who do you think you are? You gave me this piece of property, and I am not moving out.” There must be repentance, and then there can be resistance.
To be filled with the Holy Spirit means there’s not one room in your temple where He’s off bounds. There’s not one closet He doesn’t have a key to. You are filled with the Spirit, in your sex life, in your business life, in your political life, in your church life, in your social life, in the big things and the little things. Jesus has the keys to it all. When you are filled with the Spirit, there’s no more room for Satan.
- What has been your experience with repentance? How have you experienced the return of temptation following repentance?
- What are some places in life you have not given God access to? What needs to change?
Practice This
Ask God to open your eyes to the areas of your life where the enemy is still in control. Repent. Resist the devil. And ask Jesus to fill those parts of your life with Himself.
