John 10:5-8
But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger's voice." Jesus used this figure of speech, but they did not understand what he was telling them. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.
Generally, the Devil is a manipulator. More so, he is the evil manipulator of your emotions. He manipulates the emotions of the weak-willed to his likes and dislikes. He preys on the weak. The weak become his subjects through his evil manipulations. The Devil is the author of all evil. He is the author of death through the power of his sinful nature in man, if he is allowed to rule within you. He manipulates your emotions when you have no guard over it, especially when you feel guilty of your sins. He leads you in the wrong direction away from God. God the Holy Spirit is your guard to all the wiles of the Devil. He shields you with every help He provides you. Through God the Holy Spirit, you can defeat the Devil's manipulation of your emotions. You must be filled with God the Holy Spirit to be able to ward off all the Devil's evil manipulations, one of them being your emotions. Here is an example below of the Devil manipulating the emotions of the people to openly go against Christ our Lord. There are many manipulations like these which are recorded in the Bible. Be careful, do not fall prey to the children of the Devil who disguise themselves as those who believe in Christ. Take note of their ways carefully: they do not obey Christ in their daily lives. They manipulate the emotions of others through slander, lies, cheating, gossips, exaggeration, deception and a over-bearing attitude.
Mark 15:11
But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have Pilate release Barabbas instead.
You must be vigilant at all times. Keep away from the works of the Devil and do not obey the sinful nature within you. You will be able to defeat his evil manipulations using your own emotions with the help of God the Holy Spirit. Many are trapped with this evil scheme of the Devil within them. Do not allow the Devil to attack your emotions and manipulate it to his advantage. Obey Christ and everything He has commanded instead. Christ our Lord is no manipulator of your emotions. He directs your paths in the right direction towards God the Father. In His divine nature, there is not found the nature of manipulation. He does not have to manipulate because He is the Good Shepherd who leads His flock to God the Father. You will be filled with His divine nature, when you follow Him till the end. You need the True Shepherd not the manipulator. You do not need the nature of the manipulator in you. Today, we see many manipulators who obey the sinful nature of the Devil in them. They too become manipulators of the emotions of others, when the sinful nature of the Devil has matured within them. We do not need them. We need the True Shepherd. Turn to Him now! You need to have faith in Him to follow Him till the end. The righteous of God will live by their faith in Christ alone.
Ephesians 6:16
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
