“When the devil is called the god of this world, it is not because he made it but because we serve him with our worldliness.” (St. Thomas Aquinas) - Daily Bible Reflections October 10,2014


UNCHANGING
 
“And when it comes, it finds it swept and put in order. Then it goes and takes along seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they go in and live there...” – Luke 11:25-26
 
       After a person goes through a deliverance or exorcism session, he is strongly advised to keep away from the occult practices that allowed the evil one to possess him. He is encouraged to live a life of faith through prayer and devotion to Jesus and the Blessed Virgin Mary to strengthen him. If he is not filled with the Holy Spirit, then he will be filled with other spirits not of God.
       St. Thomas More said, “Occupy your mind with good thoughts or the enemy will fill them with bad ones. Unoccupied, they cannot be.”
       As long as we live in this world, we will always be caught in the middle of a battle between good and evil. When our thinking aligns with the modern ideas of society like being pro-choice and living-in, then we have succumbed to the devil’s deception of wanting to break free from God by invoking our right to our own body and the right to our own happiness. God’s standard of holiness never changes, no matter how progressive our society may be. New laws may be passed to conform to the changing needs of society but God’s law shall remain the same forever.

Abba, help me to remember always Your immutable laws. Give me the courage to stand up for it even if it means being ridiculed.
 
St. Francis Borgia, pray for us.
