Podcasts about evil one

Friends of the Rosary,We see in today's Gospel (Luke 11:14–23) Christ the Lord driving out a demon from a possessed person. Rather than praising the Lord, cynical crowds concluded that Jesus was "driving  out demons by the prince of demons."Jesus's response was laconic: "Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste and house will fall against house. And if Satan is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand?"Jesus is the voice of communio, the one who brings us back together, while the demonic power scatters. The Evil One and his minions accuse and divide.In the same passage, the Lord said,"Whoever is not with me is against me,and whoever does not gather with me scatters."Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

How Jesus exposes the strategies of the evil one - Fr. Lucas Laborde. Click here for today's readings.Do you find in your thoughts, feelings, or reactions, any agreement with the lies and accusations of the Evil One? How could someone fall for those lies? What brings home to you the evidence of God's goodness? In what ways is Jesus asking you to side with him more clearly?

1. The Son of God Rebukes the Evil One (8v22-25)2. The Son of God Removes the Evil One (8v26-39)

Giving yourself over to the world's evil ways begins and ends with selling your self to the Evil One. Don't Sell Your Soul to the Devil.

Throughout the Bible, we see Our Lord expelling demons and unclean spirits to set people free. Do not despair if there is a "demon" in your life that seems to have a grip on you or an unclean spirit that is preventing you from growth in holiness. They are part of our frail human condition.   Yet, remember and be convinced that no demon or an unclean spirit is stronger than the Lord's amazing grace, healing love, and saving power. With faith and trust in these gifts, speak to the Lord.     Tell him specifically the demon and/or unclean spirit you need him to expel. Ask him to set you free so you may spend this day not in the grip of the Evil One but in the merciful and loving embrace of the Lord Our God. 

February 22, 2026. First Sunday of Lent homily by Fr. Matt Lowry about how Jesus shows us how to face temptation by turning to God and Scripture. By learning about how the Evil One tries to trick us, we can become wiser, more prudent, and holier.

February 22, 2026 The Lord Jesus endured three severe temptations as the second Adam who represented us.  Through his life of obedience that took him to the cross, he was able to give his people the gift of eternal life.  We must rely on his Word, his help to obey God during our time of ...

Vispera and Adan were two young kids playing together in the park. It was a beautiful park with trails, lush grass, verdant trees, and plenty of wildlife. Vispera and Adan's father let them wander off on their own to explore.While they were by themselves, a stranger approached Vispera and Adan. He was very sharp looking and spoke eloquently, except for a slight lisp. He was very pleasant. He introduced himself as Mr. Vibora. He told the kids he worked for a candy company. He was going through the park giving free samples of chocolate covered fruit candies to all the kids. They were the first ones he had seen in the park.Vispera and Adan whispered together. They knew they shouldn't be talking to a stranger. And they especially shouldn't be accepting candy from him. But it was too enticing. They accepted the chocolate candy and quickly shoved it into their mouths.They were still chewing when their father called out to them, trying to find them in the park. But they hid from him. The candy was delicious. But their guilt was devastating.When their father found them, he could see the guilt written on their faces. Having chocolate lips made it easy, too. He could see they were uncomfortable. They were holding their bellies. They began complaining about stomach cramps. He felt their foreheads. They each had a fever. He felt their hands. They were clammy.He calmly asked them, "What did you do?" But he was a parent. He knew what they had done. They told him everything about Mr. Vibora and the chocolate candies. The dad figured out that the stranger had laced the candies with some kind of poison.The father quickly hunted down Mr. Vibora, and like a good, protective father, he grabbed him by his suitcoat, lifted him off the ground, and pinned him to a tree. You could see the fear flicker in Mr. Vibora's eyes.The father's voice boomed with righteous anger, "I know what you did to my children. I'm a physician. I'll save their lives. But your life is forfeit. I promise you that! I'm not going to do anything to you now. I'm going to take my children out of the park to counteract the poison you gave them.""But when my oldest son, their older brother gets home from his military service overseas, he'll be coming for you. I guarantee that. When he gets home, he'll find you. I have no qualms telling you confidently, he will crush your head."That's my modern retelling of Adam, Eve, and Satan, or in Spanish, Adan, Vispera, and Vibora for viper.The story begins in a park, in a garden -- the Garden of Eden. The Father of creation, God Almighty discovers what the lisping serpent had done to his children. So, he breaks into the world and announces the very first gospel promise. Without this promise there would be no Lent and no Easter. There would only be death and damnation. But the seeds of our salvation were first planted in the Garden of Eden. The Father makes the promise that his older, only-begotten Son will come one day to crush the serpent's head. Those seeds of salvation begin to blossom in the arid desert. Those seeds bloom on the rocky hill of Golgotha. They bear fruit as the sun rises upon the dark grave on Easter Sunday.This promise completely reverses what had just taken place. Satan had tainted his words with the poison of unbelief by tempting Adam and Eve to sin. The unbelief is within his words, "Did God really say" (Genesis 3:1)? The children no longer believed their heavenly Father's words. They ate the forbidden fruit. The poison of the forbidden fruit didn't just infect Adam and Eve. It affected their billions of children throughout the ages.That's what St. Paul means when he writes to the Romans, "Just as sin entered the world through one man and death through sin, so also death spread to all people because all sinned" (Romans 5:12). All of humanity is born in Adam's sin. That's why we call our sinful nature our "Old Adam." Because of Adam's sin, all people are sinners. They have inherited their first father's sin. Because of Adam's sin, all will receive God's temporal and eternal judgment upon sin. All people became liable to physical death, as well as eternal death.The poison was effective. The children didn't turn to God for mercy. They didn't look to him for a second chance. They ran for cover and tried to hide from God.The Devil's food produced hostility within them. In other words, the opposite of peace. The man said, "The woman you gave to be with me -- she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it." The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate" (Genesis 3:12-13). They shook their fists at each other. They shook their fists at Satan. They even shook their fists at God. They were quick to blame God for their circumstances. They were willing to throw others under the bus if it would save their own skin. This ended up costing the skin of innocent animals to cover their nakedness. "The Lord God made clothing of animal skins for Adam and for his wife and clothed them" (Genesis 3:21).What had seemed like such an inviting friendliness from Satan was now unmasked as a malicious trick to destroy them. In great irony they had become unwitting allies of this serpent who hated them and wanted them doomed like himself. Inside and out, they now felt the permeating, damning hatred that a holy God has for what they had become.Can being enemies ever be a good thing? Normally my answer would be "No." We teach our children it's not good to not fight with other people. We tell our kids, "Say you're sorry," and, "Be nice and make up with each other."But in the case of humanity and the Devil, being enemies isn't a bad thing ... it's a good thing, a God thing, a gift.God announced a reversal of who was whose enemies. Speaking to the Devil, God said, "I will put hostility between you and the woman" (Genesis 3:15). God would change things. The woman would not be an ally to the Devil anymore. God would create hostility between her and the Devil. Instead of being allies with the Devil and being hostile toward God, the Father took action to claim Adam and Eve back as his children.This action of God meant that humanity and God would have to be reconciled to each other. God would have to reestablish peace between sinful humans and a holy God. He would make his sinful children his holy friends again. You see, being an enemy of Satan means being a friend of God. This announcement of friendship was not offered to the woman only, but also to her husband and to all their descendants -- that means you and me. God says to the snake, "I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed" (Genesis 3:15).God does not urge her to do anything to affect the change in relationships. God will do it. He says, "I will put hostility between you and the woman." God administers the antidote of forgiveness to save the life of man and woman and the lives of every man and woman who follow them. The antidote God administers is forgiveness in the promised Savior.But who would this promised Savior be? We know him as Jesus -- whose very name means, "One who saves" (Luke 1:21). Jesus, the promised Savior, would be the offspring of Eve to overcome all the offspring of the Evil One. Jesus, the eldest Son of the Father and the older brother of Adam and Eve, would take on human flesh in defense of humanity, the people he chose to save as his own.God says to the serpent, "He will crush your head, and you will crush his heel." Satan who appears so lively upon the tree in the Garden of Eden would be crushed and almost lifeless under the heel of Christ on Golgotha's hill. The only One in the universe powerful enough to do that is God himself. So, the promised Savior would also have to be God. But since God is spirit, he would need a human foot to be struck, and also a human foot for the crushing. God needed feet ... so in his incarnation, the Son of God took on the flesh and bones, the hands, head, and feet of a Man. True man and true God. The promised Savior would be both.There is no question that Jesus would be able to crush Satan. God's Son is always more powerful than a created angel.In the process of crushing the serpent and saving humanity, the promised Savior would have to suffer. The serpent would strike his heel. As true man, Jesus would step into our shoes. He would be our substitute. He would take on himself the blame for all sin from the very beginning in that first garden to this very day. He would let the poison of sin infect him from the serpent's fangs sinking deep into his perfect heel. As true God, Jesus is too large and too powerfully innocent for death to keep its hold on him. Through the poison of sin, with the wrath of God the Father, and the willing obedience of the Son, Jesus breathed his last on the cross.All seemed dark and hopeless. The Ancient Serpent had struck. It seemed as if all was lost.Until the Son of God breathed again on Sunday morning. Three days of Sabbath rest in the grave was all that was needed to defeat sin, death, and the Devil -- the unholy Trinity. Jesus had crushed the serpent's head. He had defeated death. He had paid for sin. He had won.Now Jesus' victory over death is our victory over death. St. Paul explains, "Just as one trespass led to a verdict of condemnation for all people, so also one righteous verdict led to life-giving justification for all people. For just as through the disobedience of one man the many became sinners, so also through the obedience of one man the many will become righteous" (Romans 5:18-19). Jesus is the second Adam who undoes everything the first Adam did.Just as we are credited with Adam's sin, we are also credited with the second Adam's righteousness. These two verses from Romans 5 are a beautiful summary of God's plan of salvation. Adam's sin of eating the forbidden fruit plunged all of creation -- mankind, the animal kingdom, and even nature -- into sin and death. Jesus' act of righteousness of suffering and dying for the sins of Adam's children has brought salvation to mankind. One action by one man (Adam) was countered by one action by one man (Jesus), which had results for all people, who number in the billions.Jesus broke death's grip not just as God but also as a man. Now, since he is a man like us, he shares his victory from death -- his success in coming back to life -- with you and me and makes it our success. Jesus once said, "Because I live, you also will live" (John 14:19). Death has no more of a grip on people who trust in Jesus than death has on Jesus himself.God says, "I will put hostility between you and the woman." With these words, Adam and Eve were forgiven by God, reconciled to him, and made God's eternal friends and at the same time Satan's everlasting enemies. God intervened and repaired what was broken. He counteracted the poison from the serpent with the fruit from the Tree of Life, which is Christ's cross. So great is God's love for humanity. So great is his love for you. Jesus fulfilled his Father's promise to send his Son to crush the serpent's head. Amen.View this sermon (with video and/or audio recording) on our website: https://www.casperwels.com/sermons/he-will-crush-the-serpents-head/

Ps145:20; Mt6:13 My Soul and the Evil One

1 John 2:7-17 NCV [7] My dear friends, I am not writing a new command to you but an old command you have had from the beginning. It is the teaching you have already heard. [8] But also I am writing a new command to you, and you can see its truth in Jesus and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining. [9] Anyone who says, “I am in the light,” but hates a brother or sister, is still in the darkness. [10] Whoever loves a brother or sister lives in the light and will not cause anyone to stumble in his faith. [11] But whoever hates a brother or sister is in darkness, lives in darkness, and does not know where to go, because the darkness has made that person blind. [12] I write to you, dear children, because your sins are forgiven through Christ. [13] I write to you, fathers, because you know the One who existed from the beginning. I write to you, young people, because you have defeated the Evil One. [14] I write to you, children, because you know the Father. I write to you, fathers, because you know the One who existed from the beginning. I write to you, young people, because you are strong; the teaching of God lives in you, and you have defeated the Evil One. [15] Do not love the world or the things in the world. If you love the world, the love of the Father is not in you. [16] These are the ways of the world: wanting to please our sinful selves, wanting the sinful things we see, and being too proud of what we have. None of these come from the Father, but all of them come from the world. [17] The world and everything that people want in it are passing away, but the person who does what God wants lives forever. https://bible.com/bible/105/1jn.2.7-17.NCV

Hearing the Beatitudes of Jesus anew help us to see how different Jesus's plan for building the Kingdom is than that of our political leaders on the left and the right. How tempted we are to construct an earthly kingdom using force of will, rhetoric that demonizes our political opponents, and, in some cases, violence! As we construct our own "kingdoms" on earth, will we use these means of the Evil One? Or the means of heaven, which are the Beatitudes?

In John 17, Jesus's prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane, we find God's answer to redeem the Garden of Eden.John 17 - Starting vs. 13 - THE MESSAGE“I'm saying these things in the world's hearing So my people can experience My joy completed in them. I gave them your word; The godless world hated them because of it, Because they didn't join the world's ways, Just as I didn't join the world's ways. I'm not asking that you take them out of the world But that you guard them from the Evil One. They are no more defined by the world Than I am defined by the world. Make them holy—consecrated—with the truth; Your word is consecrating truth. In the same way that you gave me a mission in the world, I give them a mission in the world. I'm consecrating myself for their sakes So they'll be truth-consecrated in their mission.I'm praying not only for them But also for those who will believe in me Because of them and their witness about me. The goal is for all of them to become one heart and mind— Just as you, Father, are in me and I in you, So they might be one heart and mind with us. Then the world might believe that you, in fact, sent me. The same glory you gave me, I gave them, So they'll be as unified and together as we are— I in them and you in me. Then they'll be mature in this oneness, And give the godless world evidence That you've sent me and loved them In the same way you've loved me. (John 17:13-23)Jesus recognized the hate in the world that is opposite His heart for the world. But He also said while we do not belong here, He leaves us here. Why? To reflect His love in the same world that hates His ways. That simplifies and hones our mission on earth. We are here to be His love to others, even in the midst of hate.  Jesus was praying specifically for his disciples initially here, who are physically with him, then he looks beyond the present to the future - to you and me. Listen again to what He prays specifically for you - I'm praying not only for them (his disciples) But also for those who will believe in me (that's you) Because of them and their witness about me. The goal is for all of them to become one heart and mind— Just as you, Father, are in me and I in you, So they might be one heart and mind with us. Then the world might believe that you, in fact, sent me. The same glory you gave me, I gave them, So they'll be as unified and together as we are… And give the godless world evidence That you've sent me and loved them In the same way you've loved me.Can you ask Jesus right now to unify your heart for the world with His? To be evidence of His love for others - not your love - But becoming His love for others - the world.Who is one person that comes to mind that you need to extend God's love, beyond your love, to today? Let's pray together: “Heavenly Father, You are love and You also know what it feels like to be hated, to the point of death. You were hated centuries ago and You are hated today. Help me to be an expression of Your love, not mine, and to be an answer for the hate in this world. Teach me to love like You. As above, so below.”

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”The year feels heavy, and not just because the headlines won't let up. We name what so many feel but can't quite articulate: mercy has been generous, but justice is near, and the gap between those two realities exposes where our hearts stand. From a controversial shooting to deeper cultural rifts, we trace how sin breeds lawlessness, how lawlessness fractures families and cities, and why banding together around truth and charity is the only path through the noise.Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs steady ground, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Friends of the Rosary,Jesus defeated the old world of sin and darkness, shielding us with His divine body and blood against the fury of the Evil One and his minions and collaborators.And though the second coming and the establishment of God's kingdom haven't taken place yet, the old world is broken and compromised. Its destruction is now just a matter of time.The arrival of a new state of affairs is imminent, as Bishop Barron says.Jesus came to heal the sick, the deaf, and the blind, to forgive the enemies, and to bring the good news through love. With His resurrection, He opened the door of our eternal life of joy and love for all.Today in the Gospel (Luke 4:14–22), Jesus declares that he fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring glad tidings to the poor.”Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Main Idea. Because we truly belong to God, we must not love this passing world. Question. Why must God's children not love the world? 1. Because we already belong to God (12–14) John anchors with 4 gospel truths: 1. You Are Forgiven for His Name's Sake (v. 12) 2. You Know Him Who Is from the Beginning (vv. 13a, 14a) 3. You Have Overcome the Evil One (vv. 13b, 14b) 4. You Know the Father (v. 13c) Applications. 1. Rest in Him. [reference with application] 1 John 3:20 If your heart condemns you, God is greater than your heart 2. Because the world is opposed to God and is passing away (15–17) The command: “Do not love the world.” (v. 15) 1 John 5:19 We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. James 4:4 You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Colossians 1:13 He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son TWO REASONS TO NOT LOVE THE WORLD: 1. The world's desires do not come from the Father. (v. 16) 2. The world is passing away. (v. 17) 2 Tim 4:10 For Demas, in love with this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica. How do we overcome the world? 1 John 5:4, 5 For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world… our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? Responses. 1. Look to see what you love 2. Live to love God 3. Lean toward your neighbor with love 4. Labor to love the world by sharing Christ

You may think, "Oh, just this one little tiny sin, just this little thing -- it's not important!" But that little crack in your armor is where the Devil begins to seep in, and then his gas of deceit begins to poison your mind because you disobeyed, and pretty soon you're totally off the track! -- And if you don't really repent and stop, you'll eventually go all the way back on the Lord.Don't let it happen to you! -- Be faithful to the Lord. Be faithful to the Voice of God. Be faithful to His Work, the particular ministry He's called you to. -- Be loyal! -- "Resist the Enemy and he will flee from you!" (Ja.4:7). Don't give him an inch or he'll take a mile -- or more, and everything you've got! "Give no place to the Evil One!" (Eph.4:27). Amen? Hallelujah!

When we praise the Lord in season and out of season, we don't have to fear the Evil One.

This is Play That Rock n' Roll's interview with STU COOK, legendary bassist of Creedence Clearwater Revival! Stu visited the show to promote an album he recorded (called "JACKDAWG") along with John McFee and Keith Knudson from The Doobie Brothers. In this conversation, we talk about how JACKDAWG got started, their songwriting process, why the album took so long to get a proper release, and how they came up with the name. Stu also tells the stories behind a few of the tracks, and shares his memories of drummer Keith Knudson. We also discuss two major aspects of Stu's career. The first being his production work on Roky Erickson's 1980 album “The Evil One”. And then we close the interview with Stu reflecting on his time playing in Creedence Clearwater Revisited, which is how I saw him in concert.

If there's one lesson to learn from today's message, it's this: As freely as God's blessing is given to those who obey, it can be removed from those who disobey.After Israel's miraculous victory at Jericho, the next strategic target for Joshua's conquest of the land was the city of Ai. Its small size should have made it an easy win. Instead, Israel was defeated, leaving Joshua and his people angry, ashamed, and confused. Before we move on with this story, a little flashback is necessary. When God gave Joshua His strategy for taking Jericho, He gave strict instructions for the utter destruction of all the inhabitants of Jericho and the total surrender to the Lord of all the valuable objects found there: silver, gold, bronze, and iron. This “ban” was clearly communicated, but apparently, one man and his family didn't think God was serious. After their defeat, Joshua fell facedown before the Lord, pouring out his heart, trying to understand what went wrong. Finally, God told him to stand up and call the people together. There was sin in the camp.Following the Lord's orders, Joshua had the tribes come forward, one by one, until Judah was chosen. Then Judah came forward by clans, then by families, and then man by man until one man was chosen. Achan. Joshua beseeched him, “Tell me what you have done; don't hide it.” Achan confessed. He had taken silver, gold, and valuable things and buried them beneath his tent. When the contraband was found, Joshua took Achan and all his family and all he owned and had them stoned and then burned. Hidden sin is no small matter to God. We dare not let the Evil One's lies or our own rationalization cause us to downplay sin. We need to call sin what God calls it.Hidden sin is seen by God. Nothing is hidden from God.Hidden sin removes God's hand of blessing. As a wise parent, God cannot and will not reward rebellion. Proverbs 28:13 says, “Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper…”Hidden sin will eventually be exposed. Hebrews 4:13 puts it plainly: “Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.”But there is hope. Hidden sin can be forgiven. Proverbs 28:13 started by warning us, “Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper…” But it continues, “but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.”To confess is to say the same thing about your sin that God does. “It's wrong…and I've been wrong.”  To renounce or to repent is to have a change of mind and make a change of action.  “I'm so sorry and I'm going to stop doing that.” And to receive forgiveness is to believe Jesus paid the penalty. His grace is enough, even for that.  Text: Joshua 7Originally recorded on September 25, 2016, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

Traditional Worship | Rev. Dr. Ashley Goad | The one thing that separated Jesus from all the prophets who came before or after Him was His insistence on His disciples knowing the truth. To Jesus, truth was more than simple honesty; it was a concept rooted in God's character. He taught that through truth, we come to understand God's faithfulness and the dependability of His words and actions. In contrast, lies are the enemy of truth. The Evil One, who spreads false teachings, tries to have us live in a false narrative about who we are, how the world works and even the nature of God Himself. This sermon series is about defining what is truth, how we find it and the specific lies that hold our faith captive. We are delighted you have chosen to join us as we seek to find the truth that sets us free.
