Powerful Scriptures!

Good Afternoon, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

Again, we are so thankful for our tidbitz Blessings. I love this Bible verse, Romans 8:28 - "And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose."

Therefore, be of good cheer when you experience the attacks of the enemy, who is Satan. the 'Father of ALL Lies'. He is the 'deceiver' and he is in opposition to God, the Word, which IS the Truth. Hence, to all those of you who, have placed your Faith and Trust in Christ, do not ever give up! I have been doing quite a bit of reading and meditating on the 'Word.' This was one of the articles that I find very powerful and have included it in my bittid post to arm and equip you with a bittidz of knowledge and courage. Thank you to the writer! You can access the website!

"In more than twenty-five years of dealing with demons, I have never encountered an evil spirit that doubted God’s Word. Satan twists Scripture and misapplies the Bible, but he never doubts the veracity of what God has said. Indeed, “Even the demons believe - and tremble,” James 2:19 tells us.
Satan believes every word in the Bible, but he especially dreads certain passages because these Scripture have a direct bearing on overcoming his strategy to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). During the hundreds of exorcisms I have conducted, I’ve noticed that certain Bible verse are particularly feared by the forces of darkness. Quoting these scriptures during a demonic confrontation readily illustrates which portions of the Bible are most effective in defeating the attacks of Satan.'

'I encourage every Christian to memorize these verses. Have them ready to use in any instance when the devil tempts or oppresses. Stand on the truth of Scripture, just as Jesus did during the temptation of the devil, when He thrice declared, “It is written!” You can have the same victory over evil that Christ did. Just as “the devil left him” (Matthew 4:11), Satan will also flee from you as you trust in the truth of God’s Word.'

'FINAL INSTRUCTIONS

‎These are the Scriptures I have found most helpful to ward off the devil’s attacks. I encourage you to contemplate other passages which may be equally effective in your own life. When you discover that the Holy Spirit has used a certain Bible verse to help you overcome evil, note it, write it down on a piece of paper to carry with you, and then memorize it. Have the Word of God with you always to defeat the devil daily, in every way.'

These Ten Scriptures I am referring to, are awesome and all vital in our Spiritual Warfare. However, I have picked out a few from these ten verses, that are currently applicable in our daily walk in Christ. I hope those of you who are in a 'spiritual battle' will study the Word and the Truth found in the Bible; and ultimately, Invite Christ into your hearts. My posts have been Guided and Directed by the Holy Spirit and I am thankful and grateful for His Help.

Again, am appreciative for this empowering article; and I am quoting the writer's tidbit explanations of a few selected tid verses.

Romans 8:1 - " There is therefore now no condemnation for those, who are in Christ, Jesus."

'Satan hates this Scripture because it liberates God’s people from false self-condemnation. Intimidation by false guilt is one of the devil’s most frequent tactics. When we ask Christ to forgive our sins, His mercy blots out every transgression. Satan, who is the “accuser of our brethren” (Revelation 12:10) delights in heaping false guilt on forgiven Christians. Those who heed Satan’s word of condemnation can’t fight effectively against satanic forces because they feel unworthy. But a forgiven Christian cannot be spiritually indicted for any evil he has committed. Romans 8:1 must be thrown back in Satan’s face as the spiritual anecdote to his judgmental accusations. Use this verse to silence the reproaches of Satan.'

Isaiah 14:12 - " How you have fallen from heaven, O star of the morning, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the earth, You who have weakened the nations!"

'Satan hates this scripture because it reveals the eternal defeat he suffered when he dared to rebel against God. Satan delights in reminding each of us of our sinful past, but he doesn’t want to be reminded of his own past. Chapter fourteen of Isaiah tells us that Satan is a “fallen” being. Though he appears pompous and powerful, the devil forfeited his first estate and now only mimics the glory he had in heaven. Jesus as Christ was foreordained to trample the devil under his feet (Genesis 3:15). We too can conquer Satan through Christ’s power (“And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly.” – Romans 16:20). Use this verse to put Satan’s power in perspective.'

John 16:13 - " But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come."

'Satan hates this Scripture because he knows Christians can be easily deceived by his lies when they are not spirit-led. Knowing truth is a consequence of reading, meditating on, and understanding God’s Word. It also depends on the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit. The ability to discern demonic deception is a spiritual gift that sovereignly comes from God. Many times when battling demons I have prayed that the Holy Spirit would empower me with wisdom to know what to do next. I have seen God miraculously intervene in such circumstances because the Holy Spirit, the spirit of truth, has supernaturally given me direction. Use this verse to seek more of the Holy Spirit’s presence in your life.'

Ephesians 6:11 - " Put on the full armor of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil."

'Satan hates this Scripture because he knows the armor of God cannot be penetrated and every tactic of his warfare is useless against it. Satan has no offense against the defense of God’s armor. Just as every vital part of the physical body is protected by the accouterments of armor described in Ephesians chapter six, we are also spiritually protected in every aspect of our relationship with Christ when we appropriate this protection. When I face a difficult spiritual battle, or when I sense I’m under the attack of extreme spiritual oppression, I sometimes stand and go through the motions of putting on God’s armor. By physically emphasizing what God’s Word says, I demonstrate to the devil how serious I am about protecting myself against his advances. Use this verse to assume a defensive posture when the devil oppresses you.'

I LOVE the passage in Ephesians 6: 10 -18! Also, the writer's vivid and strong description re: 'Put on the full armor of God' when he faces a difficult spiritual battle. In short, 'Stay the good fight!'

This photo image: 'Putting on the full armor of God' is a must! Beware of Satan, the evil one, the deceiver; that is WHY it is so essential to put on the full armor of God!

In closing, I will refer again to the awesome verse from John 10:10 - " The thief comes only to steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly."

Amen!


Peace and God Bless.
