We Have the Victory

We have an enemy. The Bible identifies him as a thief, a lion, an advesary. His plan is to steal from you the peace that God gives, to kill the hope that you have, and to destroy the fellowship you enjoy with the Lord. He is the same enemy that Adam faced in the Garden of Eden. He is the same one who thought to put his throne above God. His name is Satan. In Hebrew this word means opponent and in the Greek it means accuser. He is an opponent who works against us to tear us down and defeat us. He is also the accuser who reminds you often of the person you used to be and the mistakes that you have made. But I want to remind you this morning that if you are washed in the Blood of the Lamb, and you have been born again in Christ Jesus, that Satan is defeated. We have been given the victory over our adversary. The Blood is against him!!! No matter what he does or what accusations he brings, he is defeated. You have victory!! Saints of God hold on to Jesus and one day you will see your enemy tied up with chains and cast into the pit. What a day that will be. One day Satan himself will have to bow and knee and confess that Jesus is Lord!!! Praise God for the victory!!! God bless.
