Temptation – A door way
to Satanic Attack

Man cannot easily be possessed with demon unless these evil spirits have a door way into your life. The door way of Satan in to the life of a believer is sin. When a believer fall into sin, he is conquered spiritually until he makes it right with God in repentance.

Sexual relationship between a man and a woman that are in marital relationship is pure and sacred and honorable before Almighty God that instituted the institution of marriage. It is also a relationship that mutually benefits husband and his wife for important purposes of their marital relationship.

Seduction is an evil act of leading the mind of an individual away from righteous duty, from accepted principles, or proper conduct with an enticement. Do not be deceived; seduction that results into sexual relationship is not love. In principle, love gives, but seduction takes from his victim with the purpose of destroying him. In a seductive relationship, one party is eager to receive something important at all cost for an ulterior motive and the other party does not want to part with the precious important thing. As a result, the seductive party capitalizes on the weakness of the other and the available opportunity to trap him and persuade the innocent party with alluring sexual temptations in order to make him consent to what he never intended to do. The seducer has nothing to lose. Whatever a seducer may offer in terms of enticement to get at his or her victim is nothing to compare to what he or she will take from his/her victim. A seducer is an ambassador of Satan on earth in that he/she lures, tempts and causes his/her victim to fall into sin. The seductive party may be thinking that she does not have evil intentions in achieving her objective but unknowingly to her at that point, she is an agent of Satan to lead other party to commit sin. Seduction can lead man or woman into sin of adultery or fornication.

Seduction has been a devastating evil weapon of Satan to bring men to fall into temptation. Seduction is one of the instruments the satanic kingdom use to provide the demonic force an evil bridge that create an access to enter into an unpolluted life of righteous person.  At the point of attack of seduction of Satan, He will present to you what he wants you to see and will cloud your vision about the consequential danger of the act. At the point of seduction, a tempted man under attack of Satan will only see a beautiful woman that possessed whatever man may be looking for in a woman in terms of graphical beautiful shapes of her body, her bosom and her gorgeous appearance. At this point every door of reasoning of a tempted man will be completely shut against righteous thought. Then the satanic evil programming will begin in the center of his consciousness. It always comes in form of suggestion that are cropping in to your mind at the crucial moment leaving you alone for the battle of decision.

“Wao! This is a beautiful woman!”

“She is gorgeously ripe and a pleasant individual!”

“She is cooperative and readily available!”

Then your dendrites are triggered off for action and respond to the alluring beauty of the woman. A suggestion of enemy will be screaming in your mind.

“This is an opportunity!”

“You cannot afford to miss this opportunity!”

“Go for it, Go for it!”

A small still voice of Holy Spirit within you will advise you.

“Stop this evil, it is not right!”

“Just once!” The evil suggestion continues. “You can’t afford to miss the opportunity of having a fun with a beautiful woman like this!”

“Remember the consequences of what you are about to do! This is a sin” The small still voice reminds.

“But you can always repent,” the evil suggestion interjected.

At this point the battle is at the peak in your mind. Your flesh is willing and famishing for the food of flesh, your soul is tilting here and there as it listens to voice of the flesh and the voice of the spirit. While your flesh and your spirit are still waiting for your approval or rejection, this strange woman, the evil agent of Satan decides to help you make your decision. She removes the veil of her bosom to expose you to alluring temptation and she reaches out for your fingers and guide them to her breasts for fondling while she kisses you with her hands around your neck. At that very moment, only the power of God can make you be yourself and be able to reject the evil overture. And perhaps you give in and you participate in the act of seduction, it is during this act of sinfulness that the demonic forces zero in on their victims and they establish connection in the temple of God in the victim and they defile it. The spirit of seduction would overwhelm and over-power the righteous spirit within you. In the process of free access you granted to the demonic forces to possess you, you will only experience a smooth and a so called ‘non-conflict enjoyment.’ After the evil act and when the demonic forces settle down in your temple, your eyes will be cleared. You will certainly experience a sense of loss. It could be a lost of loyalty, honesty, integrity, anointing, power, etc. Regret will set in but it will be too late. Perhaps you are wondering, why? It is because the kingdom of righteousness in you had been polluted. The yeast of destruction of enemy had been deposited in you. A piece of God in you had been taking away and the enemy will place it in their evil altar as a token of their victory over you. The altar of God in you had been desecrated and broken down and the altar of Satan had been installed in replacement. And from that moment, whether you are aware of it or not, you are initiated and unfortunately you become the disciple of the adulterous demon that attacked you.

A story revealed that a beautiful lady with the familiar spirit of a mermaid seduced a man and engaged in sexual relationship with him in order to collect the manhood seed of the man. The evil lady later deposited the seed on the evil altar in the spirit realm, thereby destroying the man’s life and his generation. The man thought he had had a big catch but little did he know that he and his generation had been eternally caged on the altar of evil spirit. The man was never able to procreate.

But assuming that at the point of the evil programming of enemy, you can echo with all your strength and power what the spirit of God is saying within you and say, “STOP!” or “NO!” I am not talking of ‘stop’ and ‘no’ that is interpreted in the seduction world as ‘go on’ and ‘yes’ respectively. I mean a righteous stop order with a stern seriousness. The type STOP and NO that Joseph told the wife of Potiphar in the Bible. You will understand the cowardness of demonic forces. Immediately you will experience an unexplainable peace and victorious joy. And you will understand the meaning of the ministration of the angel of God after the victory of temptation.

Temptation is not a sin per se as people perceive it to be. For an overcomer, it is a bridge that leads to spiritual success. However, for those who cannot keep their heads high in righteousness, it is a bridge that leads to destruction. Temptation is a yardstick by which our faith is measured. Temptation promotes, but in the process of promotion, we must remember, ‘no pain, no gain.’ “My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptation knowing this, that trying of your faith worketh patience" (James 1:2-3) It is when one falls into temptation that the individual is led to sin.

The only way out of temptation is by resisting it. But it is tough to successfully resist the devil on your own without following the protocol. "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." (James 4:7)The first step of resisting temptation is to submit oneself to God. It is by entering into an alliance with God and letting your allegiance in all your decisions lie with God. Moses asked the Israelites in the wilderness, “Who is on the Lord's side let him come to me.” The people that were on the Lord’s side came to Moses and were preserved but about three thousands idol worshippers were cut off in the camp that day.

The second step is by measuring your decisions with the word of God. “My son, if sinners entice you, do not give in to them.”(Proverb 1:10) “Do not set foot on the path of the wicked or walk in the way of evil men.” (Proverb 4:14) (Roman 6:13, II Peter 3:17) Joseph was tempted by the wife of Pontiphar, his master, but because his allegiance lay with God, he was able to see the situation from the point of view of God and said, "How can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God" (Genesis 39:9) It was not a smooth and rosy road to success for Joseph. He went from the bosom of love of his father to the bottom of hatred in the dry pit where his brothers threw him; from this pit to the house of slavery of Potiphar, and yet the Lord was with him. From his lofty responsibilities in the house of Potiphar to the dungeon because of righteousness, when temptation set in. He resisted it. He kept his head high and overcame. God's plans concerning his life were manifested and he became an anchor of blessing for the Israelites in their time of need. "Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love him." (James 1:12)
