We need to walk in that great truth and take authority over the devil. I know we've heard this before, but we haven't heard it enough.

We need to hear it over and over again. Pastors need to preach it over and over and over again, for "Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God."

This isn't the hour to back off from fear of Satan—this is the hour to go forward!

The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to usward who believe….
(Eph. 1:18-19)

Let's continue the thought:

…according to the working of his mighty power,

Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:

And hath put all things under his feet.
(Eph. 1:18-22)

His power is for us to use against the devil, because we understand what Jesus did for us. We understand that we have authority over the devil.

We understand that we have power in the Name of Jesus. Let's make sure we are using it…everyday.
