You Have the Power to Stop Satan

Jesus is the only One with the power to stop Satan!  But, if you are a follower, you have been given a superpower from Jesus - the Holy Spirit.  There is no other power that can withstand the enemy of the cross except the One who died on it and was raised from the dead.


One of the most significant differences between Christianity and other religions is this superpower.  We can overcome all things with God because of Jesus' Spirit inside of us.  But, we must activate His power with our faith.  Our faith can move the mountains (Matthew 17:20) of despair, poverty, sickness, demonization, and any other challenge that comes our way!


What if we used this faith to pray and believe for revival in America?  What if we believed in something far greater than our own lives?  I genuinely sense that we are on the cusp of a great move of God.  I feel it, I know it in my knower that God is up to something!


I also know that if we do not see a revival of the heart of God in the Church, we stand to lose America's destiny of being a city on a hill.


13 "You are the salt of the earth.  But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?  It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.  14 "You are the light of the world.  A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.  - Mat 5:13-14 NIV


America is so heartsick she's on life support.  Without God's Spirit resuscitating this nation, we will die.  Love, morality, and integrity are fading quickly.  Sharing the light of Christ will diminish, and America's final destiny will fade if we do not choose wisely.  God gave His commandments to Moses and told them to choose life and blessings, death and curses.  We have the same command.  We must choose life.


The devil is aware that our choices mark our future.  This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses.  Now choose life, so that you and your children may live - Deu 30:19 NIV


The love of God empowers us to make the right choice.  When we know God and His character, we choose life.  When we allow the enemy to entice us into foolish, demonic wisdom, we choose death.  We operate in rebellion and make ourselves a god.  God resists this kind of pride.


Many kings have set themselves up as gods and put themselves above Yahweh, and every time, they were judged according to their deeds, and the entire nation suffered. 


The Prince of Tyre made himself a god.  6 'Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: "Because you have set your heart as the heart of a god,  7 Behold, therefore, I will bring strangers against you, The most terrible of the nations; And they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, And defile your splendor.  8 They shall throw you down into the Pit, And you shall die the death of the slain In the midst of the seas.  9 "Will you still say before him who slays you, 'I am a god'?  But you shall be a man, and not a god, In the hand of him who slays you.  10 You shall die the death of the uncircumcised By the hand of aliens; For I have spoken," says the Lord GOD.' "  - Eze 28:6-10 NKJV


No matter how beautiful the things of this world look, when a nation continuously puts godless people in rule over them, they will pay a high price.


We have seen the Church do some sinful things over the years.  There has been adultery, sexual perversion, and harlotry in the pulpits of America for years.  These behaviors are grievous to God.  They force Him into judgment.  He must deal with wickedness because He hates it.


The devil goes after God's people, and if they are not operating in faith in His power, they will succumb to the enemies' tactics. 


If the Church is capable of some of the darkest behaviors we have seen over the years, how much more is a nation without the heart of God?  Israel was born from God's own heart, and yet they sinned just like those who did not know Him.


20 "Moreover you took your sons and your daughters, whom you bore to Me, and these you sacrificed to them to be devoured.  Were your acts of harlotry a small matter, 21 "that you have slain My children and offered them up to them by causing them to pass through the fire?     - Eze 16:20-21 NKJV


Israel allowed the world to influence their destiny.  The American Church has done this same thing as they support the LGBT advancement of child mutilation and abortion as child sacrifice.


The good news is that every time Israel repented and turned back to God, He showed up, received them, and healed their land. We need to live in the power of God's ability to revive America and our personal lives.


The Church needs revival because the world is on fire.  The Church holds the keys of authority to move the enemy out of our families, schools, and government but if she doesn’t operate in power the enemy will.  It is time for a mass awareness that the body of Christ is under the headship of Jesus and has His power flowing through it.


Let's pray,

Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, I repent on behalf of the Church that has sinned against You in various ways.  I ask that You forgive us, show us how to live like we have a new heart, and breathe life back into us.  The death of Jesus did not lead to a permanent burial but rather a power over death.  Jesus gives me the strength to overcome the desire to live like the world.  In His grace, I am an overcomer. Amen
