(Rule All Over The Adversary’s Power And Ability)

TO THE BIBLE:
Luke 10:19 KJV
“Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”
LET’S TALK
Reading our opening verse, you’ll observe that the word “power” is referenced twice. But they don’t exactly mean the same thing. In the first reference, where it says, “Behold, I give unto you power,” it’s translated from the Greek “exousia,” which means authority. The second one is from “dunamis” (Greek), which means power, ability, or “working.” Jesus gave us absolute authority over the power, ability, or workings of the adversary.
There is a difference between authority and ability. Let us take your country’s president as an example. He is unable to stand up to his country’s army on his own. But he has the authority of the state behind him! When he exercises supreme command and control over his armed forces or the military, they must obey! The entire armed forces, with all of their weapons of war, are at the president’s command; when he issues an order, they must obey. They may have power, weight, or substance, but only the president has authority. Authority changes everything.
It doesn’t matter how much power or force the enemy wields or can gather; you’ve been given authority over him in Jesus’ Name. The Bible says His Name is “high above all other government and authority and power and dominion, and every title of sovereignty used either in this Age or in the Age to come” (Ephesians 1:21 WNT). Hallelujah! When this same Jesus tells you, “Nothing shall by any means hurt you,” you better believe and act on it.
Read what He tells us in 1 John 4:4: “You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” Oh, what glorious news this is! No wonder the Psalmist said, “Light, space, zest—that’s God! So, with him on my side, I’m fearless, afraid of no one and nothing” (Psalm 27:1 MSG). You have nothing to fear in this life. Reign and rule in the Name of Jesus every day. Hallelujah!
GO DEEPER
Matthew 28:18–20
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Philippians 2:9–10
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Ephesians 2:6
And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
SPEAK
My authority in Christ is perfect and absolute. No evil, demon, or darkness can resist it! I’m seated with Christ, far above principalities and powers and everything that’s connected to Satan. I reign and rule over circumstances. Hallelujah!
