To continue with the power of the Holy Spirit I want to remind everyone that there is a spiritual battle going on all around us.
Can’t see it? Not being able to actually visually see it probably keeps us from going into the fetal position in a corner. However, the results around you make it perfectly clear that a battle rages on.
God being kicked out of school! Important?
Let’s see if you’re Satan and all the demons who follow him, what do you fear?
The Power of God and Jesus, which has victory on the cross. Who else do you now fear?
The Holy Spirit which came along and infiltrated the believers in the baptism of Jesus.
Acts 2:38 – 38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
When Jesus departed He sent the Comforter which is the Holy Spirit.
John 16:7 – 7Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. KJV
Jesus is in us through the Holy Spirit. All of our power comes from Him and God through the Holy Spirit.
John 17:26 – 26 I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.”
John 15:4 –4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
So if you’re Satan what are you trying to do? Stomp out the believer before they can even learn of the power that defeated him.
You see all around the world Satan is trying to use this tactic. In America it is to get God separated from the government. Why? It’s the ONLY thing that made America great. Separation of Church and State. Get God out of the schools, get God out of anything you can so people don’t learn about the Lord. In Muslim countries they outlaw the Word of God to the point that even if they are caught with it they are put to death or thrown into prison. Satan knows how powerful it is.
One thing that needs to be made perfectly clear, you don’t have power on your own. Jesus is the one with the power. That is why we must submit and let Him work through us, which is through the Holy Spirit.
The only wants you’ll have when you submit are the wants of Jesus, our Lord and King. That’s when evil literally quakes. That’s when the battle is being won through you in this war were all participating in.
Have a great Veterens Day, Christian soldiers.
