POWER OVER EVIL FORCES

Acts 1:8
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Mark 16:17&18
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

There is power released to the believer over the enemies, remember we have been raised in Christ and sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

Ephesians 2:6
And hath raised [us] up together, and made [us] sit together in heavenly [places] in Christ Jesus:

Thus the same way Eve had power over the serpent to command it to be quiet, we also have authority to command the enemies to be quiet over any area of our lives.

She allowed it to talk, however we give no room for the enemy.

2 Corinthians 10:5
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

The process begins by capturing the thoughts, if we give them room, they penetrate and cause havoc.

See Adam:

Genesis 3:6 & 7
And when the woman saw that the tree [was] good for food, and that it [was] pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make [one] wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they [were] naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

See Jesus:

Matthew 4:10&11
Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

Jesus is our example, we have power over temptation, over attacks and all other devices of the enemy.

Let us take our stand against the enemy, never taking off our armour, our victory has already been won.

Ephesians 6:13 & 18
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

We are the blessed.

Love
@the watcher
