Daily Devotion -He Gives Us Power

Behold I give you power to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you -Luke 10:19.

He gives us authority over all the abilities of the enemy in this spiritual warfare. We need not worry or fret in any situation. He has given us the ability to overcome. We dont have to do anything in the battles we face for they are not ours but His really. It's great to know that as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become His children, to those who believe in His name.
Behold what manner of love our God has bestowed on us, that we should be called His children. We are of God and have overcome the enemy, because He who is in us is greater than he who is in the world.
We must go through some suffering in this world of sin. Like Paul we can say God's grace is sufficient to take us through. Therefore, glory in your tribulations and sufferings knowing that God's strength is made perfect in your weakness and nothing shall by means overpower you. You are pressed on every side but not crushed, struck down but not destroyed, always bearing in your bodies the mark or strength of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Through all our experiences we are getting to know Him even more and more through the fellowship of His suffering and the power of His resurrection. Glory to God! Keep pressing for the mark of the prize of the high calling which is in Christ Jesus knowing that after fighting a good fight, finishing the course and keeping the faith, you have a crown of righteousness, among great rewards to receive on that great and glorious day.

Prayer: Lord let us never lose sight of the fact that we have all the power we need from you for the victory, because greater is He that is in us, than he that is in the world. Amen!

Encouragement: We have power over all the power of the enemy. There's nothing to worry about.
