TRAMPLE THE DEVIL

TRAMPLE THE DEVIL!
‘And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion...over all the earth...’ Gen. 1:26 [KJV]
God made a little god of His own image, after His likeness to rule over all the earth. [Ps. 115:15]
God is a Spirit; we are spirits, man essentially is a spirit. The person you see outside is not the man. The man on the inside is the real man. The figure you see outwardly is the house in which he lives. Man is in three dimensions. He is a spirit; he has a soul, and lives in a body. “...your whole spirit and soul and body...” 1Thess. 5:23.
Jesus re-echoed Psalm 82:6 in the New Testament, thus affirming its authenticity. “Jesus answered them, is it not written in your law, I said, ye are gods?” [Jn. 10:34]. Jesus said you are a god. Do not argue it, you are! Jesus said it. So we are higher than the devil and his entire evil schemes.
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” Eph. 6:12 [KJV]
Man lost his glory in the Garden of Eden and made him defeated and a loser. He became one with the devil in his satanic nature of spiritual death, and was thus separated from God. Literally, he was “born again”, born of the devil.
But God, full of mercy and love, sent His Son, Jesus Christ in human flesh to redeemed man and gained victory over the devil. God would have done these procedures without His Son coming to planet earth to die and redeem man. But Adam legally sold out to the devil and he must be bought legally; so it would take a man to do that [Heb. 2:14, 16-17].
The one who knew no sin was made sin for us [2 Cor. 5:21]. And He took all our sins to the cross and died there. He fought the devil and took the keys to hell and death and arose victoriously [Heb. 2:14]. He gained victory for us and now victory is ours; so let’s rise up now and take our place and trample the devil.
And we can only trample the devil if we can exercise our authority as a believer. And this authority is given to us when we’ve accepted Jesus Christ [Jn. 1:12]. Since we are born again, and now called children of God; we now have the right to call on Jesus.
‘That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.’ Phil. 2:10-11 [KJV].
You can only exercise your authority as a believer by exercising your faith.
‘But without faith it is impossible to please him...’ Heb. 11:6 [KJV].
Your faith is what pleases God and moves Him to fight the devil for you.
So Arise And Trample The Devil By Faith!

2024: THE YEAR OF ESTABLISHMENT

Hosea‬ ‭2:23‬ ‭GNB I will establish my people in the land and make them prosper. I will show love to those who were called “Unloved”, and to those who were called “Not-my-People” I will say, “You are my people,” and they will answer, “You are our God.” The Lord is about to prosper us in all areas of our life, but He must first establish us in Him. It is until we're established in Him, our prosperity will have no root to last long. The Lord has said to us, “I will establish you.” Another area of God's establishment this year is in the area of His love. Ephesians 3:17 NIV So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love. The Lord has said to us, “I will uproot every plant that I have not planted. And get you rooted and established in My love.” (Matt. 15:13; Eph. 3:17). Falsehood will die as Truth will thrive. Every wind of doctrine will vanish, because the full knowledge of Christ will be established.  Strange practi

DAY 22: TRUE RICHES

 PHRONESIS DEVOTIONAL 30 DAYS DEVOTIONAL WITH PREACHER SAM September 22, 2023. Topic: TRUE RICHES Bible Reading: Matthew 6:19-34 Verse for Meditation: 1 Timothy 6:6 NLT Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. About sexual temptation, if you are struggling to break free, you must first be saved so that you can be given the Holy Spirit to empower you to live above sin. But breaking free and living constantly above sin; especially sexual sins, it take discipline and consistency. You don’t stay fit on the first day you go to the gym to work out; it takes consistent exercise and discipline to achieve that, so does exercising ourselves towards godliness (1Tim. 4:7). When you fall, you need to rise again to continue with the exercise. It was a constant practice that made that sexual habit called addiction. So you need to deliberately keep at it constantly till the appetite to sin dies. Spiritual attack is real, but what we call spiritual attack is actually a lack of knowle

I John 5:4-5 [4]For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.

Our last year theme—our subject of discussion for last year was “WALKING IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF CHRIST.” And we shared some lovely articles that correlate with that theme.
