10 Demonic Activities You Do Everyday | Fr. Michel Rodrigue

My friends, today, I want to address a vital subject that affects every Christian striving to live a holy life: the daily activities that can open doors to demonic influence in our lives. According to the Bible, even the smallest actions can have spiritual consequences. Let’s dive into ten everyday activities that may seem harmless but can actually invite darkness into our lives.

1. Gossiping and Slander

Gossiping is more than just idle chatter; it is a tool of the enemy. Proverbs 16:28 tells us, “A perverse person stirs up conflict, and a gossip separates close friends.” When we speak ill of others, we are spreading seeds of discord, which is precisely what the devil desires. Instead, use your words to uplift and encourage, as our Lord teaches.

2. Harboring Unforgiveness

Unforgiveness is a poison that affects not only the person you refuse to forgive but also your own soul. Ephesians 4:26-27 warns us not to let the sun go down on our anger, lest we give the devil a foothold. Forgiveness is a divine act that breaks the chains of bitterness and frees both parties involved.

3. Engaging in Idolatry

Idolatry isn't just about worshipping statues. It’s putting anything—money, power, fame—above God in your heart. Colossians 3:5 tells us to put to death whatever belongs to our earthly nature, including greed, which is idolatry. Keep God at the center of your life; anything else is an invitation to the enemy.

4. Speaking Lies

The Bible calls Satan the father of lies (John 8:44). When we lie, no matter how small, we align ourselves with him rather than with Christ, who is the Truth. Honesty, even when difficult, honors God and protects us from the enemy’s influence.

5. Dwelling in Anger

Unchecked anger can lead to sin. James 1:20 says, “Human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.” If you find yourself quick to anger, ask the Holy Spirit to cultivate peace within you. Anger opens doors to wrath and strife, leading you away from God’s perfect will.

6. Consuming Immoral Content

Whether it's explicit media, violent entertainment, or anything that glorifies sin, consuming immoral content invites darkness into your spirit. Philippians 4:8 reminds us to think about whatever is true, noble, right, and pure. Protect your eyes and ears, for they are gateways to your soul.

7. Being Prideful

Pride is the root of all sin. Proverbs 16:18 warns, “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.” Pride leads us away from God, making us rely on ourselves instead of His grace. Cultivate humility, knowing that all we have is by God’s mercy.

8. Neglecting Prayer

Neglecting prayer is like leaving your home unguarded. Luke 18:1 encourages us to always pray and not lose heart. Prayer is our spiritual armor; without it, we are vulnerable to the enemy’s attacks. Make time for God each day; it’s your most powerful weapon against darkness.

9. Harboring Envy

Envy rots the bones, says Proverbs 14:30. It causes us to resent others for their blessings, and it blocks our gratitude towards God. Instead of comparing yourself to others, count your blessings and remember that God’s plans for you are unique and perfect.

10. Neglecting to Read the Bible

The Word of God is our sword against the enemy (Ephesians 6:17). When we neglect to read it, we are like soldiers going into battle without a weapon. The Bible equips us with wisdom, guidance, and strength. Don’t let a day go by without feeding your spirit with God’s truth.

These ten activities, though common, can open doors to the demonic if left unchecked. But here’s the good news: we have the Holy Spirit to guide us, correct us, and lead us into all truth. Let us be vigilant, putting on the full armor of God, and standing firm against the schemes of the devil.
