Don’t Let The Enemy Into Your Heart

Dear children, keep away from anything that might take God’s place in your hearts.

‭‭1 John 5:21 NLT‬‬

Your heart is precious. It’s the center of your life. Without a heart of love, you are dead, spiritually speaking.


‭‭My father taught me, “Take my words to heart. Follow my commands, and you will live.”

Proverbs 4:4 NLT‬‬

God is our Father. Christ is the Living Word of God. When Christ dwells in your heart, through the Holy Spirit, everything you do and say will please God.

Be a fruit inspector, not a judge. Judgment is final. Fruit inspectors can pray and intercede for better fruit to appear.


‭‭You brood of snakes! How could evil men like you speak what is good and right? For whatever is in your heart determines what you say.

A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good heart, and an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart.

And I tell you this, you must give an account on judgment day for every idle word you speak. The words you say will either acquit you or condemn you.

Matthew 12:34-37 NLT‬‬

Your mouth reveals what’s in your heart. If you want to speak words of life, don’t let the enemy into your heart.


‭‭Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.

Proverbs 4:23 NLT‬‬

Corrupt communication corrupts hearts. Pure words purify hearts. Speak life, not death. Speak Truth, not lies.

Keep your feet walking the straight and narrow path. When you sin, you open the door for the enemy of your soul to enter in. That’s not wise. That’s the road to destruction.

That’s why we constantly remind people to place all of their faith, hope and love in the Son of God, the Lord Jesus Christ. He will not lead you astray. That’s why He’s the Head of the Church, and not any mortal man.

What you listen to is important. Don’t feed yourself worldliness. Feed yourself godliness. Keep your mind on things above. Then the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

Don’t listen to people who do not love God and other believers. The Truth is not in them.

Listen to the Holy Spirit. He speaks to us personally, through the Scriptures, and through people who love God.

Love. That’s the evidence of the Holy Spirit in someone’s life. Practice discernment. Keep away from evil.


Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has become a child of God. And everyone who loves the Father loves his children, too. We know we love God’s children if we love God and obey his commandments.

‭‭1 John 5:1-2 NLT‬‬

If the enemy is in your heart, you’re going to need deliverance. Ask, and you shall receive.

Father in Heaven, deliver us from evil. In the Mighty Name of Jesus we pray. Amen.


Loving God means keeping his commandments, and his commandments are not burdensome.

For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith.

‭‭1 John 5:3-4 NLT‬‬
