I often like to say the enemy looks for cracks in our lives, small weaknesses or temptations that he can slip into to open us up to sin and temptation. It can become a full on spiritual war for your life, and often times, you don't know how you will find deliverance from the darkness. That is why I am so blessed to have my son, Steven H. Craft, Jr., as today's guest.
Steven shares the story of his battle in darkness with exposure to pornography. Over many years, he struggled with these spirits of lust and feelings of inadequacy. He began to turn to alcohol and drugs as a source of "happiness", only to find the feelings of anxiety grow. However, as he explains in this episode, his story does not end in the darkness, but speaks to rebirth and deliverance through the power of Jesus.
