Resist the Devil | Unholy Spirits | Aaron Pennington - Lead Pastor | FULL SERVICE

Описание: Are you resisting the enemy or unknowingly opening doors to his influence? In this message from our Unholy Spirits series, Lead Pastor Aaron Pennington teaches from James 4:7 and shows us what it practically means to resist the devil so that he will flee.

Pastor Aaron walks through the subtle ways the enemy deceives, the dangers of compromise, and how small concessions lead to spiritual drift. He exposes the lies the enemy uses to lure us away from the heart of God and reminds us of the authority believers have through Christ and the truth of God’s Word.

This message will equip you to recognize deception, close spiritual doors you may have opened, and stand firm in the truth. Learn what it looks like to stop quenching the Spirit, identify the lies you have believed, uproot sin, and walk in the freedom Jesus purchased for you.

📖 Key Scriptures:
James 4:7
Genesis 3:1–7
1 Thessalonians 5:19–22
John 8:44–47
John 10:10
John 8:31–32
Proverbs 30:5
