Deception, the No. 1 Doorway for Spiritual Wounds.

Deception, the No. 1 Doorway for Spiritual Wounds

This chapter covers on deception as the most prominent doorway of access or source for spiritual wounds and other unpleasant matters into our lives. It's also a doorway for spiritual strongholds. However the most prominent doorway for strongholds is ignorance. In this chapter the nature of deception sources of deception, and the harmful role of deception is addressed.

The other three doorways of access are covered in the next chapter. Sources of spiritual wounds and strongholds are avenues or doorways through which they come through.

They are doorways Satan and his fellow fallen angles use to gain legal access in their mission or ministry to “steal and kill and destroy,” John 10:7. They are also doorways through which we've a vulnerability of falling due to our own fallen nature, if granted its sinful appetites. These four doorways of access are through:

1. deception (covered in this chapter),
2. ignorance,
3. sin, and
4. storms of life (when responded to in a wrong way)

Satan's access through any of these doorways or our falling due to our own sinful nature can result in spiritual wounds as much as it can result in other types of wounds - social, material, and physical. Spiritual wounds are however, the worst because they affect the other areas of life more severely. Spiritual wounds lead to inner ill health or spiritual illness.

It's also worth repeating that any of Satan's access in our lives is through demonic influence. It is not through demonic possession. It is an external type of interference, not an internal one. If you need more detailed information on the difference between demonic influence and demonic possession please read my other book, Major Spiritual Warfare Principles: Biblical Do's and Don'ts of Warfare . The topic is covered in chapter 5 “Demonic Possession: The Exception for Direct Confrontation.”

The following is detailed info on deception as the most prominent doorway of access for spiritual wounds and other unpleasant matters into our lives. Please remember that spiritual wounds relate to our human spiritual faculties - mind, will, and emotions.
