I found past sins can be a huge stumbling block. Pray to be shown what you need to repent of. Then ask for forgiveness and in Jesus Name tell the demonic spirits that gained entry to be cast out and forbidden to return, and for any doorways to demonic influence to be closed and sealed with the Blood of Jesus. That made my life and walk with the Lord a lot easier.

If you have not done this before, your faith and resolve will be tested; the enemy always tries to undermine and weaken us: stand fast, rebuke the lying spirits and keep your eyes on Jesus. Call on His Name for help, He will never leave or forsake you. Ask for strength and for your faith to grow daily, put on the armour (Ephesians 6:10-18). Feed on the word daily, preferably with a King James bible (the rest, even the new KJ are adulterated). And praise and give thanks without ceasing. The closer you get to Him, the easier it becomes. Bless you.
