In 1993 I heard a testimony of missionaries who taught their little children to say, “I’m a child of God, and the evil one cannot touch me,” whenever they encountered evil presences in their room at night. Why? The enemy always looks for ways to infiltrate and destroy families.

1 John 5:18-19 says, “We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him. We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.”

Note: A believer is no longer bound in the habitual continuous patterns of sin. Our sins are intentional choices. Romans 6:1-2 says, “What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it.” Verse 11 says, “…reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
