To The One Who Feels Defeated
To The One Who Feels Defeated
Feelings of defeat come from the one who has already been defeated: Satan. He wants you to share in his misery and take part in his impending doom. But those who are in Christ Jesus take no part in Satan’s defeat. We will not be overcome and we will not be shaken by his lies, because we are sheltered under the wings of the Most High.
Our world has portrayed Satan inaccurately— he has been pictured on television and talked about as if he exists on the same playing field as God, but nothing could be farther from the truth. Satan is no match for God. They operate on completely different levels. If you’re looking for a similar match up, Michael the Archangel vs Satan would be a far more even match than Satan vs God. Satan is God’s creation and his power has been given an expiration date by his Creator. His eternal doom is imminent and he knows it. Satan is on borrowed time. His plan to eternally destroy all that God deemed good during creation has already been thwarted by Jesus on the cross, so he is furious and desperate to do as much damage as he can before it all goes down. He wants you to feel defeated because he’s gunning for your soul. So next time the feeling of defeat threatens to overcome you, remember who you are and Whose you are. Satan has no power to defeat those in Christ. You will NOT be shaken. You will NOT be defeated. You will NOT be overcome. You are victorious, because Jesus is victorious! @1000HourswithJesus
