Richard Monyer’s Reviews > Invisible Enemies: How to Recognize and Defeat Demons > Status Update

Granted, direct disobedience of godly principles puts out a welcome sign for demonic invasion, but by nature they are ruthless. Wicked spirits do not wait for an obvious invitation; they are spiritual parasites that attack the innocent as well as the wayward.

We all know of Christians who are living examples of having one foot in the Kingdom of God and the other in the kingdom of darkness. They do so at great risk of becoming the habitations of evil spirits.

Our redemption through the atoning death and resurrection of Christ empowers us to expel evil spirits from working their torment in our own lives and from the lives of those coming to us for help.

The safe ground, again, is to recognize that evil spirits are opportunists, and treat them as such. In their craving to enter human vessels, they can and do enter innocent victims through whom they attempt to express their satanically assigned purposes. The tactics of demons function like those of pedophiles: All they need is for the victim to be alone and oblivious to the danger.

Satan’s hordes do not respect human boundaries, but they can be ejected from our lives. Recognition of their presence and application of the power transmitted to believers by the resurrection of Jesus can provide deliverance and safe haven.

If we negate the possibility of demonic influence, we must attribute our inner struggles & the dark side of our behavior to our failure to cultivate godly character. The response for Christians is to intensify spiritual regimens of Bible reading, prayer & church activities as corrective measures. But when demons are the root issue, those remedies provide little more than temporary relief for sinful behavior & guilt.
