“Neither give place to the devil” (Ephesians 4:27).

Our text says that Satan entered Judas. Before Satan entered Judas, the chief priests and scribes had sought how to track down Jesus, identify and kill Him. So, Satan entered into them; thereafter, he entered into Judas and turned him into the betrayer. You know the rest.

How did Satan get Judas? Satan got Judas because he did not guard his heart with diligence (Pro. 4:23). He was not sober and watchful (1 Pet. 5:8). Through the spirit and lure of greed, Satan found an opening in Judas and consequently used him to achieve his purpose.

What is that opening in your life? Is it immorality, greed, envy, ambition, pride, love of money, the world, carelessness, etc? Beware! The devil is hovering around, seeking an opening to enter into you. If you allow him to enter, he will wreck the church through you. He will destroy a child, a father, a mother, servant of God, a brother, a sister, etc., and bring a great damage through you to the world and people around you. Please give no place to Satan in your life! Leave no part of you open for the enemy – Satan to exploit.

Note: Everything good and especially evil starts with thoughts. Watch your thoughts.

*PRAYER:*

Oh, Lord, please help me be watchful, prayerful and sober all the time. Amen..
