I know lots of you will be surprised and may be wondering why I'm bringing this write-up at this period... Well truth is that it's during periods seaasons like this that the Devil 馃槇 and his agents do catch many believers unawares.
Evil forces are spiritual powers bent on destroying and causing havoc in the lives of innocent men and women.
They are evil personalities that HATE the SUCCESS of God's children with perfect hatred. They are powers of the night that come to sow seeds of sorrow, pain, failure, setback, stagnancy and untimely death 馃拃 while men sleep as seen in the book of Matthew 13:24-25

As Christians,we must have the mentality if a warrior, not giving any room to the devil and his cohorts..putting on the whole armour of God found in the sixth chapter of the book of Ephesians from verses fourteen to seventeen (Eph. 6:14-17)
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness :

For only with the full armour of God would you be able to put the Devil under your feet!
