SID: So you’re saying that just as God realizes, he needs a strategic partnership with man, demons realized they need a strategic partnership with a human?
FRANCIS: Well, because the devil is a, see, the devil does something Christians should do more often. The devil is good at copying God.
SID: Copying him.
FRANCIS: I always tell people there’s nothing wrong with being a copycat provided you copy the right cat. And I’m telling you, the devil knows if you copy God, you’re going to succeed. So Satan saw how God was entering the world of men legally by partnering with men that wanted him to move. So Satan realized if I can get men to also agree with me, like they are agreeing with God, I can also bring my spirits into the world of men. And so that entry point is what the Bible calls an altar. And you find it in every book of the Bible. No man has ever been used by God without an altar. And the devil has never used a man without an altar. It’s an invisible entry point that connects the world of men to the world of spirit. And I believe that is the mystery of unanswered prayer, is this invisible entry points that are in the bloodlines of people they don’t even know about. But every time they want to have a breakthrough, something happens to steal the breakthrough.
SID: Now you said that spirits need our permission, whether it’s the spirit of God or whether it’s the spirit of the devil.
FRANCIS: That’s right.
