Hi Rob, many a times we get into things that makes us feal good, and are so appealing to our senses, but it is a trap by satan, it is a bate to get us hooked and keep us in bondage. These vices even causes us to sin and demons rules over them. But Jesus came to set the captives free and open the prison doors of our mind. satan comes to steal to kill and destroy.
There is no redemption for satan and his fallen angels. he has a case against God regarding mankind. he knows that God loves us and that hell was made for him. he wants to take us to hell with him. satan fears God, satan is a foul spirit, satan is evil, depress, oppress, anxious, sucide, speak lies, jealous of us. he is god over all those I have mention and more.
But you have a saviou, Jesus Christ, you are important to him. You can know Him today by simple saying this prayer and believing in Him. This really works.
Say this with me. Father, my heavenly father, in Jesus name, You send your son Jesus to save me, to deliver me, to redeem me, to santify me (change me) to cleanse me to love me the way I need to be love, to comfort me , teach me and many more things. Forgive me of my sins today, wash me in your shed blood. It is said without the shedding of blood there is no remission for sin. Thank You for making me clean. I accept You as Lord and saviour of my soul.
Father, I pray that You will send Godly men in this man's life. Father I pray that you will give him the courage to seperate himself from friends that influence in a bad way. I pray that he will put down and get rid of anything that will cause him to sin in Jesus name.
Rob, get yourself a Bible and begin to read the gospel of John. God bless you.
