Rebuilding the Walls

Rebuilding the Walls: All of us have at some time and to some degree experienced having the walls to our soul torn down by the enemy. The soul is like a city which we are to protect from the enemy. The soul is made up of the mind, will and emotions. When the walls are torn down, the enemy has a free access to our minds, our emotions, or our will. He comes in to deceive our minds into thinking wrong thoughts. He comes in to stir up our emotions with anger, confusion, depression, bitterness and the like. He comes in to influence or control our will. When the walls are torn down one may experience various addictions and uncontrolled thoughts. In fact, he will set up strongholds of lies within the city of our soul which must be torn down. We must confront the lies with the Word of God, bind and cast out the enemy then begin to work on rebuilding of the walls.
