THE ENEMY IS BENEATH YOUR FEET: Daily Devotional

THE ENEMY IS BENEATH YOUR FEET: Daily Devotional

 Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.” And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” - Luke 10:17–19


In Luke 10 we see our Lord Jesus sending out the seventy disciples like “the Lambs among wolves” into the kingdom of darkness. In today's Bible, look at the conversation the Seventy had with the Lord Jesus when he returned. Friends, the authority and authority our Lord Jesus gave them  is the authority and authority we believers have today!


Romans 16:20 declares that the God of peace will crush Satan under our feet! He is a defeated enemy. The Bible is very consistent and always has the devil under his feet (Genesis 3:15; Ephesians 1:22). You are not swayed by enemy attacks. Don't put him on the pedestal as  he rules you. Remember that in Christ you are “higher than all principalities and might and might and dominion” (Ephesians 1:21), and you will trample down every lion and serpent!


Today, as believers, we use our authority when attacking our enemies. How do I do this? We wield the sword of the Spirit,  the Word of God! Our authority, our strength, and our victory are in His Word.


See how the Bible describes the armor of God. Above all else, have the shield of faith. It is able to put out all the fiery arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (Ephesians 6:14-17).


Do you see the sword of the Spirit,  the Word of God, being the only offensive element of the armor? So whenever the devil attacks our Lord Jesus, we fight it with the sword of the Holy Spirit. He used the written Word of God.


The prayer of protection in Psalm 90 is praying according to the word of God and wielding the sword of the Holy Spirit. So, no matter what reports come to you from doctors, bankers, and the  media, sit in a position of authority and follow the scriptures that fit your circumstances. Fight against with the word of God!

Trust His Timing - Daily Devotional

  Bible Verse: Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NIV) - "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens." Devotional: In our fast-paced world, it's easy to feel impatient and anxious when things don't happen as quickly as we desire. We often want things to unfold according to our own timelines, but God's ways are higher than ours, and His timing is perfect. As Christians, we are called to trust His timing, knowing that He has a purpose and plan for every season of our lives. In Ecclesiastes 3:1, King Solomon reminds us that there is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens. Just as the changing seasons are a part of God's creation, so are the different seasons in our lives. Each season serves a purpose, whether it be a time of growth, waiting, or healing. During times of waiting, it's natural to feel discouraged or uncertain. But God's Word reassures us that those who wait upon the Lord will renew their...

With God All Things Are Possible - Daily Devotional

  Bible Verse: Matthew 19:26 (NIV) - "Jesus looked at them and said, 'With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.'" In our journey of faith, we often encounter situations and challenges that seem insurmountable. We may face overwhelming circumstances, difficult decisions, or personal struggles that leave us feeling helpless and discouraged. However, as Christians, we are reminded of the powerful truth found in Matthew 19:26, where Jesus assures us that with God, all things are possible. This verse serves as a beautiful reminder that we are not alone in our trials. We serve a God who is mighty, capable, and faithful. His power knows no bounds, and He is able to do far more than we could ever imagine. It is easy for us to lose sight of this truth when we are faced with obstacles, but the Lord invites us to trust Him and lean on His strength. One of the ways we can apply this verse in our daily lives is by cultivating an attitude of surrender and d...
