#23: VICTORY OVER ALL
THE POWER OF THE EVIL ONE, part two



Note: To review part one of this subject, go to #17 of this series.

We believers continually give God thanks,
     for He has delivered us out of the authority of darkness
     and translated us into the kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ.
 
We are delivered out of all the bondage of the devil,
     for we have been redeemed through Jesus’ blood.
 
And we are complete in Him who disarmed all evil spirits,
     triumphing over them through the cross.
(Colossians 1:4, 8-14, 2:10, 15)
 
Like a king making a public spectacle of his enemies
     in a victor’s procession,
    the Lord Jesus defeated the devil and his demons
     and put them to open shame.
(Colossians 2:15)
 
Grow strong through God’s mighty resurrection power 
     and know that you are seated with Christ,
     far above your enemies.
(Ephesians 6:10, 1:19-23, 2:6)
 
Be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power -
     which He displayed when He raised Christ from the dead.
(Ephesians 6:10, 1:19-20)
 
Like soldiers, we Christians must learn to be disciplined,
     on mission, and under authority.
(Ephesians 6:10-18, II Timothy 2:3-4)
 
An alert Christian gives the devil no place in his life;
    a determined believer gives demons no power in his affairs.
(Ephesians 4:26-27)
 
Don’t stay mad – not even until the sun goes down.
For the devil comes with temptations,
     but those who put on the Lord Jesus Christ
     refuse to let the devil have any place in them.
(Ephesians 4:26-27, Romans 13:14, John 14:30)
 
God raised us believers up out of sin
     and out of the devil’s authority
     and seated us with Jesus in the heavenly places,
     far about all evil spirits and fallen angels.
(Ephesians 1:20-23, 2:4, 6)
 
Since Jesus is highly exalted as Lord
     and the Name of Jesus is above every name,
     evil spirits must bow at the name
     of the resurrected Son of God, Jesus Christ.
(Philippians 2:9-11, Romans 14:10-11, Luke 10:17-19)
