The Devil Lost

Scripture: Revelations 12: [9] The great dragon was hurled down–that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

Observation: The devil has been defeated and no longer has power over my life. He may tempt me, but he cannot harm me for I belong to Christ. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me and that includes avoiding Satan’s temptations.

Application: Every time I worry I give Satan a stronghold in my life. I need to be focused on Christ, knowing He is the victor, my Lord and my Savior. When troubles come, I should pray and draw nearer to God and He will lead me to victory.

Prayer: My Lord place in my heart your desires. Strengthen me in this battle of life and show me how to have victory of the accuser of this world.
