There
are believers who are so afraid of satan that they try to avoid his trouble by
letting sleeping dogs lie. They think satan is asleep, so they don't want to
wake him up. Such people don't know the devil; they don't know how much satan
hates them. Satan seeks footholds, always on the move, and while you're trying
to avoid him, he's busy consolidating his hold!
Satan
is not a being to fear. Whether you think he has some power or not is
irrelevant; what matters is that the power in you; the One in you, is far
greater than all the powers of the kingdom of darkness combined! It's like a
mother hen trying to attack a man; it can attack, but just a kick will settle
the matter!
Devil
is programmed to flee whenever he is resisted (James 4:7). See how Jesus and
the apostles resisted him in the Bible: with just words! Many times they didn't
even speak to satan or the demons directly: for instance when they said
"be healed", the demon behind the sickness understood that it had
been served a quick notice and immediately fled!
In
Christ, we are far above principalities and powers; far above witches and
wizards; far above whatever they have chosen to be called; and far above all
who have willingly submitted their souls to satan. In the name of Jesus, that
is, as a representative of Christ here on earth, satan is bound to flee from
you. Stop avoiding satan; march right into his strongholds and cause commotion!
