Indwelled by the Holy Spirit at the moment of salvation, the followers of Jesus Christ cannot be demon-possessed, but we can be demonically influenced. Scripture instructs Christians to "...be filled with the Spirit." Believers tap into the awesome power of the Holy Spirit with us by surrendering every aspect of our lives to God's sovereign control. When the Holy Spirit is allowed to have complete authority over our lives, we are no longer vulnerable to the evil influences of Satan's demons that seek to wreck our lives. Give is all to God and trust Him to guard and guide you!
Jesus said in John 16:33, "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Despite the troubles and trials that are a reality of life in a fallen world, faith in Jesus Christ gives every believer ultimate triumph over their temporal earthly circumstances and the assurance of an eternal heavenly home in our Lord's presence. By God's grace through trust in Jesus' supreme sacrifice for our sins, we are reborn spiritually and become new creations in Christ with transformed hearts that desire to love and serve and renewed minds that seek to do God's will, not our own. Good will ultimately overcome evil; faith in Christ is the victory that overcomes the world! Paul said in reference to Jesus in Romans 8:37, "Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us."
