Satan knows how very deadly these emotions are in hindering the cause of Christianity. When Christians allow a grain of discouragement to grow, it becomes a monster quickly. We may even begin to accept the enemy's notion that we are so sinful that we are not fit for the Kingdom of God. Remember to guard against the spirit of discouragement. Most of us have witnessed the sinister work of discouragement in the workings of the local church.
Some people tend to find fault with every new project or idea.
They view every negative possibility as a reality. The second tool of Satan finds its way into hearts today as well. It is the spirit of fear. Christians who suffer from this satanic agent allow doubt and worry to creep its way into their heart. The same is true of our Christian walk with the Lord.
