3 Open Doors That Drain Believers (And How to Shut Them)

Feb 12, 2026    James Epperly

Are you feeling spiritually drained, emotionally heavy, or easily triggered lately? In this Good Morning LIVE teaching, Pastor James shows how many believers aren’t losing to “big sin”—they’re losing to open doors that quietly give the enemy a foothold. Today we learn how to close three doors that steal peace and momentum: offense, fear, and comparison.


In this message you’ll learn:

What it means to “give place to the devil” and how to take that ground back

How offense turns into bitterness and impacts your relationships

How to break fear’s grip and walk in power, love, and a sound mind

How to stop comparing, run your race, and guard your heart

Simple, practical steps to stay free, focused, and Spirit-led


If you’ve been stuck in replaying conversations, battling anxiety, or feeling behind in life, this teaching will strengthen you with biblical truth and clear next steps.


Key Scriptures: Ephesians 4:26–27 (NKJV), 2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV), Galatians 6:4 (NLT), Proverbs 4:23 (NLT), Hebrews 12:15 (NLT)
