Welcome Back!! I am your host Dawn Simmons and in this episode of Conquering Our Unseen Enemies we are going to be discussing the demons of Distraction. These demons use multiple strategies and are so subtle we don't notice it until we are already distracted and sometimes even forget what we were originally doing. First we will discuss what the demon of distraction is, then we will look at some biblical examples of distraction and discuss examples of this demon at work this past week and in a deliverance. Finally we will talk about what we need to do to overcome this influence and evict it from our lives.
As always let’s recap Top Show Points:
Discussed the demons of Distraction
These demons use multiple strategies and are subtle
Demon of Distraction doesn't want you to know about him because that would defeat the purpose of his work. If he is doing his job correctly, you won't be able to follow through on understanding who he is because he can keep you focused elsewhere.
This demon will frequently be seen working together with the demons of frustration, forgetfulness, confusion, indifference, procrastination, and restlessness
Example of Eve getting distracted in the Garden of Eden and the costs of that distraction to her immediately and forevermore.
Example of Samson and his momentary distraction and giving in to Delilah and the painful immediate cost to him and ultimately led to his destruction.
Example of David and his distraction by Bathsheba and the loss of innocent life and the impact to the Kingdom.
Example of distractions in a prayer meeting at my own church
Example of demon trying to distract me during a deliverance
Do not let your feelings override our actions and distract us
We talked about how to document our activities and the distractions so we can see patterns of distractions and decide how to correct it
Use Jesus as an example of how to focus on alone time with the Lord
We encourage you:
· To have an active Bible reading plan, it will be helpful in gaining wisdom and understanding and it is required for the gift of spiritual discernment
· If you want to learn more about how to Hear God's Voice, take a look at my book, Loving Conversations: How to Pray and Hear God's Voice. There is also a Study Guide available and two new devotionals coming out based on the Loving Conversations Book. One devotional is for women and one is for men.
