Spiritual Warfare

Demonic spirits do not manifest themselves in ways that scare and thrill superstitious people like Hollywood portrays. They are those voices in your mind arguing and debating with you about established and known moral issues. Devils are scratching at your soul's door when you hear in your mind their arguments against what is right. Beware! Lest you end up like this poor boy in Mark 9!

The story of the poor centurion's son who was vexed with a deaf and dumb spirit is very much like what we often see now. There is no need to try to fix blame or analyze what caused this. Help for the hopeless can only be found in Jesus Christ himself, and not in men - not matter how knowledgeable or spiritual they are.

Superstition is the devil's counterfeit to true faith. It focuses on the physical looking for confirmation of the supernatural. It is based in fear. Modern religion is full of superstition that is presented as faith. Saving faith is only found in truth, which is the Word of God.
