Narcissism is everywhere, isn’t it?
You see it in relationships, families, workplaces, religious spaces, and even in places you thought were completely safe.
Unfortunately, I have to say it—it’s officially a narcissism epidemic.
On what basis am I saying this? Well, the world is becoming increasingly self-absorbed.
You know how the climate is these days: more people are manipulating, deceiving, and tearing others down just to elevate themselves.
This trend is likely to continue. It’s not going to stop anytime soon because the same has been predicted by all major religions.
So, the question arises: What does God want you to do in the face of all this?
How can you protect your soul and stay strong when dealing with the demonic spirit of narcissism?
Well, for starters, you can guard your spirit, stay true to your values, and trust in His justice.
Let’s understand all of this in more depth. The topic for today is: Four Things God Wants You to Do in This Narcissism Epidemic to Protect Yourself.
1. Guard Your Heart
Your heart is the core of who you are. God knows how valuable your heart is, and He instructs you to protect it.
If you open the Bible and refer to Proverbs 4:23, it says:
“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”
What does that mean? It means your heart is the wellspring of your life, love, faith, and joy. God wants you to protect it fiercely from the enemy.
And who is the enemy? The narcissist.
This doesn’t mean shutting down or hardening yourself. It means being wise about who you allow into that sacred space.
As time passes, narcissists are becoming stealthier, more deceptive, and harder to recognize. You need to evolve and learn how to safeguard your soul from their corruption.
You cannot keep giving because they are takers. If you keep sacrificing yourself, there won’t be anything left to sacrifice.
Protecting your heart means setting boundaries. It means recognizing when someone is taking more than they are giving and stepping back.
God does not want you to lose the beautiful soul He created in you just to keep someone else happy.
He does not want you to give all of yourself to someone who only knows how to take. That’s not love; it’s exploitation.
Loving others is a core Christian teaching, but it does not mean letting people walk all over you.
Jesus Himself said in Matthew 7:6:
“Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet and turn and tear you to pieces.”
What does that mean for you? It means you need to recognize when someone is abusing your kindness, love, energy, or spirit.
These are sacred. If someone refuses to value them, it’s not your job to keep giving. Walk away. Guard your heart, and trust that God will handle it.
