Girls, Here’s What You Never Knew..

DAY 4 OF 7

How the devil can trap you 


Heard of soul ties? A soul tie is a deep emotional connection or a bond with another person. 


When two people come together in a good soul tie, it is a blessing as the power of God intensifies. In 1 Samuel 18:1, we read that “the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David” (ESV). Another example of a healthy soul tie is marriage.


However, a soul tie becomes unhealthy (could even happen in marriages) when the opposite person becomes like an idol in your life, further leading to addictive, manipulative, or violent behavior. 


An unhealthy soul tie is the devil’s trap to pull you back and keep you away from God’s best in your life. 


Here are some signs of unhealthy soul ties:



  • When the person becomes an idol, and your mind is consumed day and night with thoughts of the individual.

  • When you are constantly checking on them, their social media, and rehearsing your time with him.

  • When you can’t let go of a relationship even when it is abusive or is negatively impacting you. 

  • When you give the person more weight than God. 


How you can unknowingly open doors to soul ties


It all starts harmless, but the most common way is through emotional and premarital sexual connections. Avoid sharing your emotional touchpoints with someone from the opposite sex. If you need help, first run to God and ask Him to lead you to a mature person in the Lord and of the same sex, who can help you overcome.


Overcoming a soul tie:


Deep inside, if you desire to be set free from the bondage of unhealthy soul ties, God is more than willing to walk you into His freedom. So, get desperate for your breakthrough. 


Start by slamming the door hard to that relationship. Inform the other person about your decision to part. Apologize and forgive if you have to. You literally have to wean yourself from that person in every possible way until you stop getting their thoughts. Prayerfully let go even if the other person throws an emotional fit. 


Parallelly start spending more time with Jesus – you do that by meditating on His Word, worshipping Him, talking to the Holy Spirit, and staying in the company of godly friends. Don’t feel ashamed to take help from a God-fearing and mature person in the Lord (of the same sex). Humble yourself and be willing to obey as you are guided in the ways of the Lord.
