Victory is ours in Christ Jesus

Scripture: The seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!" 18 And he said to them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall hurt you. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven." Luke 10:17-20

Reflection:  For us who have not known the greater part of the hidden truth then it is once again here before us: Who is man’s greatest enemy? 

Jesus reveals to us the actual enemy of the human race; Satan the deceiver who keeps deceiving and keeps us bound in the darkness of evil of sin and prevents us from knowing the one true God and the path of eternal life.  

   

Jesus came to expose him and destroy his work: “the reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil.” 1 John 3:8

Prayer:  Lord, to your humble one’s who have learnt to keep their gaze on you, you promise them victory over the evil one. Grant me the same victory over the evil one so that I may gain the heavenly reward which you promise your beloved. (Rm.16:19-20)
