Topic: Power For Total Victory

Text: Behold, I give unto you power to tread on
serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of
the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt
you (Luke 10:19).
Life definitely isn’t a problem-free bed of roses!
While we know this is true, we also shouldn’t
expect it to be a bed of poison ivy either! As
believers we need to look at our lives and know
that we have the ability to overcome the
problems that are caused by demonic powers.
We shouldn’t live in fear of some pending attack
lurking around the corner. We need a stronger
mind-set that is confident that Jesus Christ will
enable us to live in victory above these things.
Jesus told His disciples that they could walk
over the power of the devil. He reiterated to
them that nothing has the power to harm them.
This explains why He could escape the hands of
His would-be killers early in His ministry (see
Luke 4:30). It explains why Peter could be
broken out of prison by an angel just before his
scheduled execution (see Acts 12). I once heard
someone say, “If the devil could kill you, he
would have already done so, but the fact that he
hasn’t means he cannot!”
We need more established confidence today that
we have the power to walk over the attacks of
demons rather than them walking over us. Know
what belongs to you today, because the devil
and all his power is under your feet!

PRAYER
Lord, I thank You that I have authority over the
problems of the enemy. I know that no demonic
power has any ability to harm me or my family
today! I am covered by the blood of Jesus and I
live in victory! In the Name of Jesus, amen
