Gal 4:8-9
8 Formerly when you did not know God, you were enslaved to beings that by nature are not gods at all. 9 But now that you have come to know God (or rather to be known by God), how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless basic forces? Do you want to be enslaved to them all over again? [NET]
Terna experienced a great deal of demonic activity and attacks in his life, especially in his sleep. This was partly because of certain ancestral and family powers that sought to control him. After he accepted Christ, the demonic activities slowed down, but they continued. Terna knew that his only hope for freedom was in Jesus, but he was not yet fully free. What was the problem?
There are two major things that can limit a Christian and keep him under demonic control and manipulation. The first is when he still has an un-renewed worldly mind. The second is when he is a legalistic Christian.
In today's Bible text, the Galatian Christians were allowing themselves become enslaved to demonic forces because they started becoming legalistic. Anyone who is legalistic does so at the expense of his faith, and your faith in Christ is what gives you victory over the forces of darkness (see 1 John 5:4).
A legalistic Christian is one who’s walk with God is built on rules and regulations and no longer on total faith in Christ Jesus. When you begin to believe that aside from believing in Jesus, there are other things (such as dressing in certain ways, circumcision, etc.) you need to do in order to make it to heaven, you have become legalistic.
As you pray today, ask the Lord to empower you walk beyond every manipulation calculated to put you under the law and not under grace.
