Wow! The power of darkness has no power over you and me! That is quite a statement and so important for us to believe it and receive it.
When Jesus went to the cross He destroyed the power the devil had over us once and for all and God literally took us out of the kingdom of darkness and put us in the kingdom of His Son. We have changed kingdoms permanently and the devil can't do a thing about it. Glory to God.
Although the enemy tries to deceive us constantly by trying to put things on us, as long as we remember this verse and believe it, his tactics wont be able to work against us. The Holy Spirit has told us to submit to God and resist the devil and he'll flee from us.(James 4:7) That word 'flee' means he runs in all directions away from us when we resist him but we have to do the resisting, God doesn't do it for us.
Colossians 3:15 Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.
There it is again - the enemy has been disarmed and yet we treat him as though he's loaded for bear which he's not! The Lord wants us to know our enemy has been defeated, disarmed, and has no power over us. He reminds us that the Greater One is living on the inside of us and as far as God is concerned He has made us world overcomers. (1 John 4:4)
So next time the enemy tries to throw something at you or on you, don't just lie down and roll over, get these scriptures out and remind him he can't do it because he's had his teeth pulled out. Let's stand on the Word and be the Overcomers God says we really are. 😊
(Have a look at Luke 10:19 when you get a minute.)
