Every year around this time, the same conversations start circulating. People begin debating whether Christians should celebrate certain days, avoid certain symbols, or stay locked inside their homes because “it’s the enemy’s day.” But friend, let me say this clearly: the adversary does not own a single day on the calendar. He never has, and he never will.
When we allow fear or superstition to guide our decisions, we’re not walking in faith—we’re giving attention to the wrong kingdom. The enemy loves attention. He feeds off fear, distraction, and confusion. But as believers, we’re not called to magnify darkness; we’re called to declare the light.
Scripture reminds us in Psalm 118:24, “This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Notice it doesn’t say, “This is the day the Lord has made, except for October 31st,” or any other day you might think belongs to the enemy. Every sunrise belongs to Yahweh. Every breath, every moment, every day—His.
Jesus didn’t just come to forgive sin; He came to establish His Kingdom. When He declared in Matthew 28:18, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me,” He meant it. There is no spiritual vacuum where Satan rules freely. The devil only operates under permission, not possession.
That’s why we, the Church, must stop giving the enemy free publicity. Whether it’s through fear-driven conversations or constant focus on what darkness is doing, we’re unintentionally glorifying the wrong side. Paul told the Colossians, “He has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of His dear Son” (Colossians 1:13).
So why would we, as citizens of light, keep rehearsing the enemy’s influence when we’ve already been relocated into the dominion of the King?
This is not the day of fear. This is not the day of witchcraft. This is not the day of the enemy.
This is the day of the Lord.
Instead of retreating, let’s rejoice. Instead of hiding, let’s shine. Instead of fearing the darkness, let’s fill the streets with light—with worship, with prayer, with laughter, with the joy of the Lord.
The Church doesn’t take its cues from culture or calendars; we take our marching orders from the King. Jesus is King. His Kingdom has no end. And as long as He reigns—and He reigns forever—every single day belongs to Him.
So lift your head, believer. Stop watching the shadows and start walking in the sunlight of His Kingdom.
Because this is the day that Yahweh has made.
And we will rejoice and be glad in it.
