3 We live in this world, but we don’t fight our battles in the same way the world does.

5 and we tear down every proud idea that raises itself against the knowledge of God. We also capture every thought and make it give up and obey Christ.
6 We are ready to punish anyone there who does not obey, but first we want you to be fully obedient.
MFM Daily Devotional 14 March 2022 MESSAGE
Today’s message may appear strange to some people, but I pray that the Lord will give you deep understanding and deliverance, in the Name of Jesus.
What is a door? It can simply be defined as the entry point into a place, building or the life of a person. The life of man can be compared to a building with entry points. Doors provide the opportunity of entry and exit, in any given situation.
This explains the angelic traffic in Jacob’s dream in Genesis 28:12, where the ladder from heaven touches the earth. The same thing happens in a situation where there is traffic of demons coming in and going out of a man’s life through a particular doorway. It is left for you to take over the control of such entry points by the help of the Holy Spirit.
In deliverance, doors stand for spiritual access points into the life of a person, especially in the spiritual realm. These evil doorways are the openings created in a man’s life, directly or indirectly, through spiritual ignorance, carelessness or nonchalance. These include negative thoughts and imaginations, bad habits, negative attitudes and bad behaviours which have become ladders or entrances to satanic invasions into such a life.
For example, anger, bitterness, envy, jealousy, all ungodly and vain imaginations, rebellion and disobedience, strife and all works of the flesh (Galatians 5:19-21) are easy doorways for demonic pollution of human life.
These evil doorways soon become a stronghold harbouring demons in different dimensions and capacities. These demons are strangers and evil tenants in the building of a man’s life; they must be evacuated for the individual to enjoy the presence of God in his or her life.
To do this, you need to first identify the doorway so that you can deal with it from the roots and prevent a reinforcement or re-entry. This can only be done through aggressive prayers, strong faith in the Lord as well as living a life of holiness and complete brokenness.
