5 THINGS ABOUT YOU THAT FRUSTRATE THE DEVIL AND PRESERVE YOUR DESTINY AND ETERNITY

1.      Spiritual Authority
The devil understands authority. He knows believers who know their authority in Christ and those who do not. You can be oppressed because you do not know your authority, but the day you know it, the yoke of oppression is broken off your life.
“And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing” (Isaiah 10:27).
2.      The Word you carry and at work in you
Carrying the word is not enough; you must apply it against the devil and his activities. Mind you, the devil knows the word. He quoted Psalm 91:11 to Jesus: “For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways”. This was in Luke 4:10.
And Jesus overcame him by the Word:
“And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God” (Deut. 6:16; Luke 4:12).
3.      Fire in your life and on your altar
A fire-less life is a powerless life. I have never seen a vulnerable destiny and at-risk eternity like a man without fire in his life. The enemy will lurk around, but the fire of God in your life executes judgment on them.
“And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, If I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty” (2 Kings 1:10).
4.      Faithful witness of the gospel and of truth
“And I will give power unto my two witnesses” (Rev. 11:3).
“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me” (Acts 1:8a)
When you evangelize, you contract fire. When you speak the truth always, the devil is perpetually frustrated because he cannot stand the truth.
5.      Absolute holiness
This is the most powerful. Some people are simply untouchable not because they have fasted for 7 days, but because there is a Holy-Ghost empowered virtue and divine aromatic unction around them by the reason of complete obedience and surrender to the will of God. No demon or made-in-hell principality that can touch such people. Holiness is the biggest source of the anointing.
“Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm” (Psalm 105:15)
These will form a hedge round you. The devil knows what a hedge is all about, so he stays away.
“And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought? Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land”  (Job 1:8-10).
But the day you allow your hedge to be broken by sin or unfaithfulness; “And whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.” (Eccl. 10:8b).
Finally, I want to them you that not everyone can be a victim. The devil uses fear is a tool and the moment you falter, he comes powerfully. Fear is a spirit; fear has torment (1 John 4:18). Be courageous. Stand on God’s word.
If you are under the oppression of bad dreams; stay awake till 12 midnight and “kabosh” in tongues for minimum of 30mins to 1 hour....no devil can stand that environment. Then go to sleep. You are covered.
If the enemy sends you an intimidating text message, I borrow a clue from my spiritual father (Dr. Pastor Paul Enenche), don’t be afraid. Pick up your phone and reply them in the language they cannot understand...speak in tongues and reply the message in tongues, e.g. “raba kosh stanlakubakilikata”...just type in tongues and the enemies as they read will receive some supernatural visitations. The enemies heard the feet of 4 lepers and they escaped, the same will be their fate.

God bless and keep you. Maranatha.
