A speaker warns recovering addicts that people, places, and media can trigger relapse. The devil wants to pull you back to your old self, one without prayer or Bible reading. Cut off everything that reminds you of who you were.
When somebody is a recovering addict, they will tell them, don't go to a certain place, don't talk to certain people, delete certain numbers, don't watch certain videos, because all of these can be triggers for you to go back to your old life. The devil wants you to be your old self so bad. The devil wants you to be your old dead self, your old prayerless self, that self that never read the Bible, that self that couldn't fast for 1 hour. And what the devil wants to do is to create triggers around you that remind you of your old self. So So as we are recovering from that death, we must leave everything around us that reminds us of our old self.
