In Part 6 of “The Spirit You Invited,” we continue examining the life of Sha’ul to understand an important question: Is every evil action caused by an evil spirit, or can the problem already be within the heart?

Scripture specifically tells us when the evil spirit troubled Sha’ul. Yet after the final explicit mention of the evil spirit in 1 Shemuel 19:9, Sha’ul continued making destructive choices. This forces us to examine the difference between spiritual influence and personal responsibility.

Yahusha gives us another key in Mark 7:20–23, teaching that evil reasonings, pride, deceit, hatred, and other wicked matters can come “from within, out of the heart.”

In this lesson we examine:

• The progression of Sha’ul’s jealousy, fear, anger, and hatred toward Dawiḏ
• When Scripture specifically identifies the evil spirit
• How Sha’ul continued plotting even when the evil spirit was not mentioned
• How an evil influence can magnify what is already present within a person
• Why we must guard our heart and examine our thoughts and intentions
• How the Word of Yahuah exposes what is hidden within us

Hebrews 4:12–13 reminds us that the Word can judge “the thoughts and intentions of the heart” and that nothing is hidden from His sight.

Before asking, “What spirit is doing this?” we should also be willing to ask:

“What is in my heart?”

Join us as we allow Scripture to expose what is hidden and teach us the importance of obedience, accountability, repentance, and guarding our hearts before Yahuah.
