My enemy knocks on three doors in your soul with his temptations. Those doors are your three lusts; the lust of the flesh (seeking to satisfy your senses in an indulgent, addictive way); the lust of the eye (greedy longings in your mind, vain imaginations, greed and covetousness); and the lust of the pride of life (trusting in yourself more than you trust in God).
You will have those three lusts until you leave this world. Satan was able to implant these lusts in souls after the "Fall." The lust of the flesh was implanted in the emotional part of the soul. The lust of the eye was implanted in the mind part of the soul. The lust of the pride of life was implanted in the will part of the soul.
Every time you are tempted to open the door to these lusts when Satan tempts you, close the door by speaking My Word out loud just as I overcame Satan by speaking the Word out loud when Satan tempted Me in the wilderness.
