The Bible admonishes us to leave no (such) room of foothold for the devil (give no opportunity to him) (Eph 4:27, AMP). Eddie and Alice Smith show how, through our ignorance and carelessness, the devil can take advantage of us through things in our possession. From Scripture and personal experience, they enlighten us on the importance of spiritual housecleaning and how to go about it.
