Would you turn please to Ephesians 4?

We've been on a topic on Sunday mornings for some time now

that we're calling no place for the devil.

No place for the devil.

Now you just say the word devil and you lose some people right

they're like devil

sounds like a fairy tale to them

but the same Bible that talks about God

talks about an enemy.

And it's true whether you believe it or not.

It's real, whether you acknowledge it or not.

And the scripture in Ephesians 4 talks about this.

He talks about Ephesians 422, put off the former conversation, the old man, which is corrupt

according to the deceitful lust, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind and put on the new man.

Now you'll find this terminology keeps recurring about putting on, putting something on,

like you would a coat or clothes, put on the new man which after God's created in righteousness and true holiness.

Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor for we're members one

of another. Be angry in sin not. Let not the sun go down upon your wrath, neither give place to the devil.

And he goes on talking about not stealing that we looked at during the offering time,

but these are different ways that one would give place to the devil.

Lying, anger and rage, these kind of things.

One of the biggest awarenesses that believers need to grow in is the reality of the spirit realm.
