About Strongholds
Strongholds are meant to keep people safe either from what or who is on the outside, or from what or who is on the inside. The stronghold of the Lord is safety in His presence. Sin separates us from God. Strongholds take root when sin is allowed to flourish and prosper. Knowing that He has, and can deliver us from our sins gives us peace.
A Stronghold can Imprison or Protect
A demonic stronghold in our lives can cause us to feel like or become a prisoner even if we believe that we have been delivered from the curse of sin and death by the sacrifice of Christ Jesus. When problems arise, the natural man has a tendency to react instead of searching deliverance from the strongholds attached to the problems. As a result we become oppressed. This is the difference between freedom in Christ and oppression. A demonic stronghold is described well as a prison in the book of Revelation.
