Lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him”; Lest those who trouble me rejoice when I am moved. Psalm 13:4

We must always silence the enemy at all times, for we are no longer in his hands as we now belong to Christ. We must strengthen ourselves in Him and in His power. Like Caleb, we must also silence the people who do not yet believe in the Glory of the Gospel. Caleb did not work wonders or miracles or signs to make the Hebrews be silent and to glorify God. However, we have the divine power.

The devil achieves success against those that give up and retreat when the battle intensifies. However, the Almighty says that His soul does not find acceptance in those that behave in this fashion (Hebrews 10:38). In this light, be filled with boldness and go up powerfully in the presence of the Omnipotent and see that you will come back in glory, with authority to show that only the Lord is God. Those who move in Jesus’s Name overcome the strongholds of the enemy.

Don’t fall for the deceptions of the devil that entice you to do what God condemns. You must grow in faith and rebuke, reject and cast out the enemy, as Jesus commanded. Peter was rebuked for noticing the wind and so will you if you do the same. (Matthew 14:25-31). Walk above and over the waves, over the problems and the confusions. Fix your sight on the Savior and you will do well. There is no failing if you behave in the Name of the Lord.

In doubting you promote the devil to being your boss. But if you keep on believing and acting according to the Word you will probe to be God’s son. Abraham did not hesitate when he heard that Lot, his nephew, had been taken captive with the sinners of Sodom. (Genesis 14:12-14) To the patriarch that was absurd. How many sons and nephews of servants of God fell into the hands of the king of sins and you did nothing to prevent this calamity? Call up and recruit your 318 servants and go to battle.

Those who lend ears and eyes to temptations grow fond of them. After this bonding, the desire arises and on being served, makes the person stumble and fall into the hands of the adversary. Stop this immediately and reconcile yourself to God, so as not to fall before the enemy and have him make you suffer in your life.  The opposition has already begun his destruction; so it is urgent to resist and defeat him. You are called to shine (Matthew 5:16) and not to put God’s work to shame. Hurry back to Him!

Don’t let the devil say he has prevailed over your life nor that he has your life in his clutches, for he is an outlaw and will only win if you act cowardly and give up! Remember that the Lord did not lead you to his Kingdom for you to be a fifth wheel, correct? He is right by your side at this very moment to transform you to be victorious. Your triumph is obtained not only with words but also by exercising your faith. Go and do exactly as God tells you.

You have every reason not to fall because Jesus said you would obtain power on being baptized by the Holy Spirit. If you have already been baptized, the prerogative is yours, otherwise, receive it right now and be empowered. Now, bind Satan and cast out the evil that harasses and punishes you.

In Christ, with Love,
