When you wave the wand around (regardless of its shape), the bubbles form spheres of various sizes. This is because there is equal pressure all around the bubble. As the pressure changes, the bubble responds by submitting, or it collapses completely.
Unhappily, some Christians do the same. The pressure can be either fear or desire, but it often changes the person.
The abiding presence, the indwelling of the Holy Spirit empowers us to not be conformed to this present world or to be tossed by every wind of doctrine.

Walking, living in the Spirit is the way of victory.
Romans 12:1-2
(1) I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
(2) And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
