About This Quote
If you hold fast to the past, the devil will take advantage of this and use it as a weapon against you.” is a common saying that has been around for years. Although he didn’t say this exact phrase, St. Paul wrote down the same idea in Romans 15:4 “For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.” The point of this advice is to avoid clinging to things that are not helpful or that may lead you into temptation. When someone says this, they are saying that you must let go of something that has been there all along, but now has become useless. By letting go of it you are making room for something new to come in its place.
