Like a thornbush in a drunkard’s hand is a proverb in the mouth of a fool. Proverbs 26.9

There is a demon acting behind of every abnormality. In the case of foolishness, the devil provokes some people in the same way that alcohol does with the drunken. If he gets a stick full of thorns, even if he cuts himself, he feels nothing for being “anesthetized” by his drink. Certainly, foolishness and other wrongdoings are caused by evil spirits. This evil can be treated with medicine or expelled by a person of faith.

How can a person be such a fool to allow others to user his body? The fool does not imagine that, one day, his foolishness will be the pretext for him not to get married, not finding a job, or not even rebuking his son that is acting wrongly. Shame can take years to come, but one day it will come. For some people, sin is discovered in this life, but for others, it will only be revealed to them in Judgment.

Every person that is dominated by a spirit of darkness can be set free if he finds someone filled with the Holy Spirit and with faith. The oppressed must never hide his mistake, but open himself to a servant of the Lord, so that this person might use his authority in Christ to set him free. When the Most High is operating, it is easy to expel the demon, since it gets scared with the fire that burns everywhere.

Another example of demonic oppression is with those who use drugs – including alcoholic beverages. Only because they are possessed by an evil and perverse being that some people allow themselves to be drunk, giving up their sober state. The moment that a person is under the effect of drugs, he can make decisions that will cause him much harm, committing a crime or causing a permanent injury or death to someone.

Our mission is to preach the Gospel – the Good News that the devil has already lost the battle. We must tell everyone that it is easy to live well, not being submitted to the evil one, being healed by diseases and weaknesses, and prospering from all blessings. We have the Name of Jesus to free us from whatever it may be. However, we must announce this for all, and at the same time, exert our authority. Those who believe will come and will be set free.

If we take away the drunkenness from the fool, they will become as normal as any other person that never had this problem. Christians must consecrate themselves, believing in what the Bible says about going unto the world to free the oppressed by Satan. The Holy Scriptures declares that the night is over and the day has begun (Rm 13.12). Therefore, nobody should be under the enemy’s burden.

Whatever we do to these little ones, we will have done for the Lord Jesus. They must leave their spiritual chains that keep them captive, hungry, naked, and thirsty. For that reason, assume your position in Christ and free those who cannot stand being prisoners any longer. Once saved and freed, all will live in freedom, joy, and feeling accomplished. It only depends on us.

In Christ, with love,
