SCRIPTURE: Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. Matthew 7:16-17.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: God cannot possess you if you are living in sin and iniquity.
We once prayed for a girl in one of our Sunday services many years ago. Looking at this girl’s physique, she appeared like a boy but she was not.
She was just eleven years old, but at that age, she was already the second in command in the witchcraft world.
This girl made shocking confessions. She confessed that she killed her sister who lived abroad through witchcraft practices because according to her, the sister refused to send money to her.
She scattered the marriage of her parents by making her mother to run away from her father’s house.
She killed another sibling of hers, this time, her brother who lived in Nigeria.
She also paralysed her own father.
So, this possessed girl was eventually brought to Abuja and started working as a nanny, taking care of a new born baby for a family. In fact, the baby survived her witchcraft just by the mercy of God.
When the man of the house in Abuja discovered her witchcraft practices, he put a copy of our daily devotional, “The Seeds of Destiny” on her head and anointed her. Almost immediately, the girl became restless and began to confess her witchcraft activities.
On one of the nights, she went out in the spirit for her witchcraft meetings, and as she returned, she landed on the roof of the house physically.
The man removed the chains and chaplet on her neck and set them on fire, they refused to burn initially. But as they persisted and the items started burning, they turned to a snake. This happened physically. I am not narrating a movie scene or fiction story.
You see, this girl did all kinds of wickedness because she was possessed with the spirit of witchcraft.
The question for you to ponder is, who has possessed you? What has possessed your life? Has any negative habit taken over your life? What spirit is in you, the Spirit of God or the devil? Who is living in you?
The answer to all these questions is simple. We know who is living in you by what you do, because by their fruit you shall know them (Matthew 7:16). God cannot possess you if you are living in sin and iniquity.
Remember this: God cannot possess you if you are living in sin and iniquity.
