I read this morning, Matthew 12:43 - 45.
When an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, 'I will return to the house I left.' When it arrives, it finds the house unoccupied, swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that man is worse than the first. That is how it will be with this wicked generation.
I imagine the there is an evil spirit lurking around waiting for me to invite him to my clean house. And he has seven friends to bring with him.
If I let him in, how terrible would my life be.
I pray that no temptation would ever come to me great enough to choose to walk away from God and invite that spirit into my house. I'm terrified at just the thought of the suffering that I would endure.
