Ephesians 2 CEV In the past you were dead because you sinned and fought against God. 2 You followed the ways of this world and obeyed the devil. He rules the world, and his spirit has power over everyone who doesn’t obey God.”
In the modern cotton candy church, satan is ignored. Everything is good. He does not have “Power over everyone who doesn’t obey God.” But the Bible just said that he does.
When we blatantly sin, satan has power over us. Because of this:
#1 It is wise to gain the habit of rapid repentance. Consider working on a higher degree of rapid repentance daily.
#2 Consider reminding yourself daily, “When satan has power over me… Joy flies out the window.”
#3 Sin is a way bigger problem than we think. Satan having power over us is a way bigger problem than we think.
#4 Purpose is greatly weakened when satan has power over us.
The mad cycle: Sin which allows satan to have power over us, wearing us down. Then once satan has unlimited time to have power over us, we have no strength against temptation against our main habit. Consider praying:
“Father, instantly show me the sins I ignore. I commit to rapid repentance against these sins.”
Second, what changes when we fight to put Jesus on the throne always:
#1 Satan loses his power.
#2 We have Light In our lives.
#3 We experience Jesus great love.
#4 We start to have power over satan and sin.
#5 With rapid repentance of all sin, power increases. With Christ’s power increasing, we start to gain power to fight our main habit.
