THE ENEMY HAS NOTHING IN ME

John 14:30

"I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in Me.


The agenda of the enemy, "satan" or the "devil", is to take our hearts away from God. He wants us to focus on him, or that which is his.


The battle had always been for the soul(mind, heart, intellect, emotion) of man, even from the garden of eden when he caused man to die spiritually thereby being separated from God.

Man now has to battle with what he once had dominion over. What a loss!


Knowing this, we who have been saved must not fall into the same error, we must not give in to his gimmicks.


1Peter 5:8

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.


We must not give our heart or soul to him.


Proverbs 4:23

Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life.


If life is lost or contaminated then death is the outcome.


Ephesians 2:2

in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience,


We were there in times past but we are now free in Christ Jesus. If any man is in Christ he has been set free from the bondage of satan.


We are no longer condemned, we don't answer nor account to satan but to God our Father. Therefore it should be all about God, there is no room for the enemy.


Acts 26:18

'to open their eyes and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.'


Colossians 2:15

Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.


So therefore if you are born of God you are not to be worried over the devil but to think always on how to please God continually.


Yes we cannot ignore all the devices of the enemy, but when he comes we remember that he is already defeated.


2Corinthians 2:11

lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices.


So instead of focusing on satan or all he wants to distract us with, we focus on Him who has set us free from his power, influence and condemnation.


* we pray,

* we study the word,

* we worship,

* we fast.


Knowing that though our spirit man has been redeemed, the flesh is liable to the influence of the enemy.


Galatians 5:16

I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh


So that we can say like Jesus


" HE HAS NOTHING IN ME"


Glory to God.


PRAYER

Loving Father I give You all of me, there is no room for any other. Glorify Yourself in me Lord, make me clean, holy and acceptable to You. Help me Good Lord. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


He calls us blessed.


Love
