Dear Friend, The power and authority of the Lord Jesus Christ is extended to all those who believe and trust in His Name. The Lord Jesus declares in Luke 10:19 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. We have been given authority over the devil and all his evil devices and must make a conscious effort to stand in our ability through Christ. There are many Bible believing Christians who do not take hold of their authority when the enemy comes with his temptations, but rather they get discouraged and forget of the power that stands ready behind them. We have been given a weapon that is promised to defeat even the greatest adversary and that weapon is the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. (Matthew 16:19) (John 10:10-11) At the mention of His name all devils must bow and surrender their attacks. The Bible declares in Philippians 2:10-11 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. In Him is power, beauty and glory that is unsurpassed. His authority is to be made manifest through our lives so that all may know who we belong to. (Hebrews 2:14-15) (Ephesians 6:10-18) I hope you are encouraged and strengthened by today's message to take hold of your authority as a believer and know that you do have power over all the principalities of the enemy. THE BIBLE SALESMAN An old man, selling books and Bibles, slumped down in the seat of his buggy as he rode along through the rain and the sticky mud of the Texas black land country. Taking advantage of the dark and gloomy day, the devil whispered to the aged saint, Look at all the dark and ugly sins of your yesterdays. Think of all the broken resolutions, the failures, and the foolish things you've done. You might as well give up. You can never make heaven. The old man sat bolt upright. Half aloud he said, Devil, be gone! Go talk to Jesus Christ about me. He is my representative. I've turned my life completely over to Him. The devil left and the old saint rode triumphantly on through the rain. By Arthur E. Lickey Be encouraged and know that you are a mighty warrior through Christ. The same power that Jesus displayed throughout His life is promised to all those who trust in Him. The Lord Jesus says in John 14:12, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." Let God's word resonate within your spirit and realize who you are because of the Lord Jesus Christ. Stand in your authority and know that God is proudest when we realize who we are because of the sacrifice of His beloved Son. (1 Timothy 6:16-18) (1 Peter 4:11) (Revelation 1:6-8) Read and meditate on these scriptures: Philippians 2:9-11 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Ephesians 3:10-13 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose which He purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of Him. Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory. Matthew 16:19 Jesus says, And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Ephesians 6:10-12 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 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. All of these scriptures can be found in the King James Version Bible.
