What’s Your Demon?


Are you a fiend for something? What’s your demon? Is it drugs? Sex? Or even shopping? Or maybe it’s something else for you. These things or demons prey on basic human weakness. They tend to unleash a mischievous spirit among our lives and a willingness to be bad for it. Once that awful behavior is set free, it wreaks havoc that manifest in countless negative ways.

Some will lose friends, loved ones and jobs. Others will take on vast financial burdens because of the habits they must keep. And, others will suffer the fate of a slow and agonizing death, due to a compromised body and health issues. The ramifications can not only be crippling, they can stagnate all things positive. 

Your demons must be checked! They attempt to remove you from God through servitude because you can only serve one master at a time. Ask yourself who or what are you serving.

A sermon I listened to once said that the devil can only get to you in three ways. 1) Through your body’s senses 2) Temptation and 3) Pride, which means it all comes down to discipline.
