Who are your greatest enemy or who is your enemy?
Let me use example of Samson.

Now let me ask, who killed Samson? Delilah or the Philistines? None of these options is correct. Permit me to tell you how he died.

Even if there were 10,000 Philistines soldiers, they couldn't have defeated Samson. Do you know why ?

Samson's strength was not of this world. It was divine. As long as no one can defeat God, no army could have defeated Samson no matter how strong or many.

Samson was raised a terror for the Philippines. He killed a lion with his bare hands, he lifted the gate of a city on his shoulder and walked over 46 Miles; he killed 300 Philippines soldiers with a jaw bone, what if he got a spear or sword ?

So with the little illustration,
Who killed Samson now? The answer is Samson. Yes, Samson killed himself, A man is his greatest enemy. What an enemy cannot do to a man, he would do to himself.

Samson killed himself, he delivered himself to the lap of Delilah and used his mouth to tell the secret of his power. His life promised so much but delivered so little. Judges 16:1-31.

the book of proverbs 19:3 says, 'the foolishness of man Perverteth his way: and his heart fretteth against the Lord'.

Nobody can ruin your life except you do it with your own hands. Although you can blame it on G o d or p a r e n t s o r government, you are the architect of your life; you are your greatest e n e m y. E v e n i f y o u r grandparents had done any evil, until you press the trigger it wouldn't explode on your face.

No Satan or witch has the power to destroy you no matter how much they hate you, you are the only one who can kill yourself by your actions. When the enemy try in vain to kill you they lie in wait and allow you to kill yourself by your own action.

Another example, Goliath and Jeroboam.
Goliath the champion couldn't hurt David but adultery destroyed his family. The gentle nations couldn't hurt Moses, but anger killed him. When king jeroboam stretched his hand against the prophet, his hand dried up, he couldn't hurt him but his own disobedience turned him to a prey for a lion
.

Your greatest enemy is not outside there, it is in you. The book ofb1 King 13:1-3, confirmed that.

Millions of people are killing themselves withe there own mouth by what they eat and drink.

Thousands of people die of sexual transmitted diseases every year.

would you blame a witch for that?

Hundreds of thousands of divorce and breakup happens every year because people destroy their own marriages and homes with their own hands.
Like proverb 14: says, "Every wise women builds her house, but the foolish one tears it down with her own hands.

Mind you, if you fail, don't look far away, look inwards because what's killing you is inside of you.

What you yield yourself to will either kill or save you. If you continue yielding yourself to fornicate, that's what will kill you both spiritually and physically. Everyone has a seed of sin deposited in him through his Adamic nature.

I want to tell you, repentance kills that seed of sin but if you don't kill that anger, pride, jealousy, greed, lust, it won't just kill you in the future, it might have been killing you gradually.

That is why no matter how much people die of cancer and diabetics people would not stop smoking and drinking because a man signs his own death warrant.

My good people, I want you to kill thatvseed before it kills you. Quit that habit now, Because your GREATEST ENEMY IS NOT IN A MAN OR SPIRIT OR SATAN BUT YOU. YES YOU
