Satan desires empty bodies
Satan desires empty bodies
When you accept sin into your life, then the Holy Spirit will have to flee from your body, for it is written that “Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption“. Ephesians 4:30 NIV. Your body will remain empty, opening doors for demons because Satan desires empty bodies.
Samson
Samson was powerfully anointed by God but he lived a careless life. He allowed sin to enter his life hence opening doors for demons of promiscuity to possess him. The Bible says in Judges 16:1 that:
“Then Samson went to Gaza and saw a prostitute there, and went in to her.”
The mighty power of the Holy Spirit left Samson and Satan entered his empty body. It was after his repentance, that the Holy Spirit returned to him.
Judas Eschariot
Judas entertained thoughts of betraying our Lord Jesus Christ and he opened doors for other demons to enter his life. The Bible says in Luke 22:3 that:
“Then Satan entered Judas, the one called Iscariot, who was one of the twelve [disciples].”
After Satan entered Judas, the latter went ahead to betray Jesus.
Demons seeking empty bodies.
Within the spiritual realm there are some demons that are restless, looking for empty human beings where they can settle. Such evil spirits cannot enter the body of a true believer because it is filled with the Holy Spirit. The only way they can enter into any Christian is when they sin. Jesus said in Mathew 12:43-45 that:
“Now when the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, it roams through waterless (dry, arid) places in search of rest, but it does not find it. 44 Then it says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when it arrives, it finds the place unoccupied, swept, and put in order. 45 Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and make their home there. And the last condition of that man becomes worse than the first. So will it also be with this wicked generation.”
Avoiding sin
When you avoid sin, you keep the Holy Spirit within you intact. At the same time, you will keep all evil spirits out of your body.
