Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to

 

triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of

 

his knowledge by us in every place (2 Corinthians

 

2:14).

 

As Christians, we have absolute victory

 

over Satan and his cohorts. We belong in

 

the Kingdom of God’s dear Son, who leads

 

us in the triumphal excursions of life; it’s a

 

continual victory parade.

 

Luke 1:69-71 tells us that God "…hath

 

raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his

 

servant David; as he spake by the mouth of his holy

 

prophets, which have been since the world began: That

 

we should be saved from our enemies, and from the

 

hand of all that hate us." This came into effect with the

 

coming of the Lord. Thus, whoever may hate you, or plan

 

evil against you, will never be able to overpower you, for

 

Christ is your victory. Concerning your adversaries, the

 

Word says: "When the wicked, even mine enemies and

 

my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they

 

stumbled and fell" (Psalm 27:2).

 

You don’t have to pray against the wicked or your

 

enemies from coming against you; they’re free to come

 

out against you. However, their end has been

 

predetermined: they’ll stumble and fall. Never live in

 

fear, or respond to circumstances out of fear; you’re a

 

victor in Christ Jesus. The Bible says, "And having spoiled

 

principalities and powers, he made a shew of them

 

openly, triumphing over them in it" (Colossians 2:15).

 

When Jesus defeated Satan, and the principalities and

 

powers of darkness, you were in Him. You were in Him

 

when He paraded them in their despoiled state,

 

wounded, broken, and rendered helpless.

 

Now in Luke 10:19, He says, "Behold, I give unto you

 

power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all

 

the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means

 

hurt you." What a life He’s given us; a life of victory

 

through the Word, and dominion by the Spirit.
