Deliverance From EvilChikamu

Jesus Is Tempted in the Wilderness

Every effort we make to break free from bondage will result in automatic opposition from the enemy. That being said, when God delivers us from evil spirits, the enemy will visit us during our dry seasons to try and tempt us and lead us astray.

Don’t get me wrong; the Bible explicitly states that evil spirits cannot dwell in dry places. But at the same time, we need to understand that Satan is persistent and strategic.

Similar to the order we see in God’s domain, the kingdom of darkness also has a hierarchy of powers, principalities, and spiritual hosts of wickedness that are hell-bent on wreaking havoc on the lives of all people.

This means that although God may free us from oppression, threats of re-enslavement during times of testing should be expected.

Remember, the devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy, and he will stop at nothing to rob us of experiencing true freedom in Christ. How can we be so sure? Because Jesus, our Lord and Savior, whom God sent to set an example for all His children, had to endure the devil's tests during his wilderness experience.

Christ Himself, our high priest who was tempted in every way and did not sin, has given us the ultimate blueprint to surviving our dry seasons to avoid caving into Satan’s crafty schemes that he employs to entrap and entangle us in a web of sin.
