In His model prayer, Jesus instructed His followers to pray for deliverance from the Evil one on a daily basis Luke 11:4. They will continue to torment and possess till Christ comes again foreseen His Church.

The demons can work in our doubt, worry, fear, resentment, rebellion.
Gen 3:1, mat 6:25-33, Rev 1:17-18 Isa 41:10, psalms 17; 27; 35; 109; 143, 1Sam 15:23.

Jesus Christ has prepared a place for every born again believer, and it is located in Heaven. The Lord has assured us that heaven is where He and the Father are, and He has even given us directions on how to get there. "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14:6. Let Him be your Savior from the demons and eternal hell.
