God repeatedly asks in His word that we hate evil for good reason

There are literally dozens of scriptures where God asks us to hate evil and not to take any part in it, not even in the appearance of it. Part of the reason is because it is dangerous as it can open demonic doorways or portals.

“Abstain from all appearance of evil.” (1 Thessalonians 5:22)

“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.” (1 John 1:5)

“Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, says the Lord, AND TOUCH NOT THE UNCLEAN THING AND I WILL RECEIVE YOU.” (2 Corinthians 6:17)

“Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil; cling to what is good.” (Romans 12:9)

“The fear of the Lord is to hate evil.” (Psalm 97:10)

“And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?” (Isaiah 8:19)

“And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.” (Leviticus 20:6)

“Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God.” (Leviticus 19:31)

What can we do to protect ourselves, our friends and family, and others?

The Bible speaks of ‘the weapons of our warfare’ and these primarily include learning spiritual warfare. We read about this in Ephesians 6:

“For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of god, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.” (2 Corinthians 10:4-5)

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit.”

Demons can cause problems that manifest in any number of ways in any and all areas of life, but the solution is always deliverance. One problem may seem more horrific or ‘evil’ or shameful or guilt-inducing than another, but that is one of their aims and we should not allow it. It is better not to spend any time worrying about it and just get on with the remedy.

Prayer, along with some concrete changes, such as removing cursed objects and practices from one’s life, along with a change of lifestyle, putting aside ungodly practices and living a more godly life which includes prayer and studying the Bible.

Playing an audio Bible on low volume can help, even when we are not in the room or in the house. These days there are many recordings of audio Bibles available for free online and the King James version is far superior to other versions for this purpose.

Playing worship and praise music can be extremely helpful for this purpose. With one proviso, great care should be taken in the choice of music as much of modern worship music today has strong occult associations. Some so-called Christian music is not godly and the battle here can be for our very mind and soul.

“God is a Spirit: and they that worship him MUST worship him in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:24)
