WHAT TO DO WHEN WE'RE UNDER ATTACK BY DEMONS? - FR. VINCENT LAMPERT 2023

#catholic #spiritualwarfare #frvincentlampert
As Catholics, if we' reliving out our faith by going to Mass, receiving the Sacraments, reading sacred Scripture, spending time in prayer, the Devil is already on the run. We need to demonstrate to the Devil that we are not wheat and that the Devil will ultimately flee.

It's a sad reality that far too many people today seem to be spiritually asleep. Many people who have been baptized, have loved, have abandoned their faith. They no longer go to church and perhaps even now identify as being an atheist. The truth is that either one is in a relationship with God or is in a relationship with something else.

And that something else is none other than the devil himself. St. Paul in Two Corinthians reminds us that Satan transforms himself into an angel of light and he deceives many people. As the gap is growing between ourselves and God, there has been a resurgence in fascination with the devil. What people need to realize is that our ultimate entity comes from our relationship with God and not apart from Him. Faith in God will lead us in one direction, and the lack of faith will lead us in another.
