Rhapsody of Realities Saturday July 4th 2020 - Victory Over Devils
For we wrestle not
against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against
the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high
places Ephesians 6:12.
There’re
people who’d like to convince themselves that demons aren’t real, they are mere
figments of our imagination. But they’re wrong!
Demons are
real and oftentimes, Satan, who thrives on the ignorance of many, proliferates
the deception that he doesn’t exist. But our theme verse tells us that we
wrestle against “…principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness
of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” These are evil
spirits.
Until their
appointed time of judgment, Satan and his demons are going to do everything
they can to get at you, to destroy your work, and try to frustrate you. But
have no fear; they’re not a factor. In Christ, you have the victory over Satan
and the cohorts of darkness. They are mere rebels, running rampage and trying
to wreak havoc and bring frustrations to those who let them. This is why you
must know and stay in the Word and maintain your victory in Christ. The Bible
says to
resist the devil, and he will flee from you (James 4:7). How do you resist the
devil? With the Word!
It makes no
difference if it’s a health condition that can’t be medically explained, or
issues with your job, business or family; affirm the Word! Ephesians 6:13 says,
“Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to
withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.” The evil day is when
Satan throws his darts at you. It’s the day of crisis; the day when you’re the
target of the adversary. That evil day will come, and it doesn’t come only
once. But as long as you’re in the Word—fully dressed with the whole armour of
God—you’ll always be victorious!
You live and
function in the Kingdom of light where Satan has no chance. You live in the
victory and authority of Jesus Christ. You have something that the devils can’t
withstand—the Name of Jesus. Use it, and triumph gloriously, always!
CONFESSION
I live and function in the Kingdom of light, with authority over Satan and the cohorts of darkness. No weapon fashioned against me shall prosper. I live in the victory and authority of Jesus Christ, and my faith is a weapon of defence against the fiery darts of the wicked; an instrument of victory over and against the adversary and adversities. I live triumphantly in Christ, every day. Hallelujah!
