Fighting the Devil (Snock 10:17-20)

To fight and win the devil, you must have a sincere heart and determination. Those who fight and lose the devil are disturbed and pressured by the devil, and they suffer from depression. However, if we defeat the devil, we can enjoy freedom and freedom, truly possess righteousness, peace, and pleasure, and live happily with the Holy Spirit. Fighting with the devil is inevitable in life. Since Adam and Hawa, we have not been out of the devil's stallion. However, Jesus' grace has paved the way for us to overcome the devil.

1. events to learn from the Old Testament

 

The sight of the Israelites entering the land of Canaan in the Old Testament shows how we, the chosen people of today, can enter the grace of God. When Joshua led the Israelites into Canaan, the Jericho Castle was holding on. Jericho Castle is a very strong castle. However, when God occupied Jericho Castle, he said that if you go around the Jericho Castle once a day and come into the camp and rest, and shout out loud after six or seven rounds, the Jericho Castle will collapse. What does this mean? It is to test whether you have the confidence of your heart that when you go around the Jericho Castle, the Jericho Castle will collapse. And it is to test whether you have a dream of breaking down, whether you believe in the word of God without looking at your environment, or if you admit it with a strong and bold mouth.

Joshua 6:14:16 says, "On the second day, they went round the castle once and returned to the camp for six days; on the seventh morning they rose up early and went round the castle seven times in the same way as before. When the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, "Call out, Yahweh gave you this castle." Thus, when the people shouted, the sturdy Jericho Castle collapsed. According to archeologists, Jericho Castle is so sturdy that it cannot be seized by a hasty attack. According to the accounts of John Gastang and Khedrin Kenyon in the 1930s and 1950s, who discovered the castle, it was built on a steep, topographical rock mountain that made it impossible to climb. The walls were very sturdy with double walls. The outer wall was 1.8 meters thick, the inner wall was 4 to 5 meters thick, and the wall was 9 meters high. In short, this castle was an impregnable fortress. And the people of Jericho Castle were firmly defended by the rumor that the Israelites were invading. Joshua 6:1 says, "Because of the Israelites, it was tightly closed, and no one entered."


The people of Israel had nothing but God's word to trust. They could not win with their arms and power. Belief in God's promise, "Round for six days and round for seven days and fall apart when you yell" is the only weapon. It is a question of whether you can believe that word or not. If you can believe it, you can believe every word of God today. But I cannot believe it because God's word seems foolish to people in the world. If we follow the word of the promise and move on to faith, we can shout victory and defeat any adversary. Therefore, in Acts 4:23, it is written that "Protect your heart more than all that is worth keeping, and the source of life remains from this."

Those who do not control their minds say that the castle seems to have collapsed and there is no wall, but they need a belief that does not retreat. If you have listened to God, you must believe and believe, and if you believe, you must practice it. If you go in the middle, be discouraged, and step back, God's history and miracles will not come true. If you have doubts about the test and the word of God in your mind, worries and worries will occupy your mind. Nevertheless, it is necessary to make a decision to firmly rely on the word of God and not to retreat. Joshua's decision to lead them firmly despite the opposition of the doubters despite no environmental change for six days is also a surprising grace. Finally, in Joshua 6:20, it is written that "the people shout the trumpets and the priests shout loudly when the people boycott the trumpets, and when the people hear the trumpets, the walls have collapsed, so the people have moved forward and entered the castle and occupied it."

Likewise, the fight against demons is like the stone of the castle of the Israelites. The devil, like the castle of the castle, does not budge at first. You have to hold out, stand, stare, and confront. You have to remember the stone of the castle when you oppose the devil because the Lord said, "You should drive out the ghost in my name," according to the Bible. Once you turn, the castle does not collapse. You said you would drive out the ghost in my name as God commanded, so you have to continue until you are driven out. That way, God will eventually be with us, so you will have a great victory.

2. Daniel's Prayer

 

When we confront the devil, we must remember Daniel's prayer on the 21st. Danielle, the Israeli leader who was taken prisoner by the Basah, fasted and prayed for 21 days to learn what would happen to his country in the future. I was exhausted after praying and waiting for 21 days without any response. But on the 21st day, an angel came and raised him up, saying, "On the first day of your prayer, God heard your prayer and responded, but when I was coming down with a response, the demons in the air confronted me for 21 days, so I couldn't come down through it. God has already given me permission, but when I can't come down through them, General Miguel will come down and help me, and I will come down through them and tell you the news." Daniel would not have received a response if he had prayed for 10 days and given up everything in discouragement. However, he persevered and waited until the end. Daniel 10:10:12 says, "I had one hand, and I trembled to touch me, and he raised my knees and palms to the ground, and said to me, Daniel, a man of great grace, I have heard what I have told you, stand up. After he told me this, I stood up trembling, and he said to me, 'Don't be afraid, Daniel, because you have been answered from the first day that you have decided to bring yourself together before your God."

When you pray to God, you should not be discouraged that the devil will not respond immediately because even if he responds immediately, the devil is desperately preventing our prayers from responding. Therefore, when the devil blocks our response, if we step back in discouragement, the devil eventually stops the response from coming. However, if you endure to the end, God sends a stronger and more capable cheer force, such as Angel Michael, so that the response of prayer can reach us.


If we pray for a certain wish and goal and do not respond quickly, we are easily discouraged. The devil discourages us. Most saints try and pray for good throughout their religious lives, but they often grieve and sigh because there is no response. However, the devil, the ruler of the world, already has no real authority. The devil doesn't actually have a link to hold us because Jesus carried out our sins and injustice, ugliness and curse, despair and death on the cross, instead of us, and liquidated them. It's because of sin that the devil caught Adam, Hawa, and us, their descendants. However, when Jesus enters Jesus, there is no condition for the devil to hold us because he has repaid the sin. Jesus Christ has lifted the devil's political affairs and powers off the cross and has won. We who believe in Jesus are legally freed from the devil's power. There is no reason to be tied up by the devil and dragged around anymore.

 

3. the devil is driven out

 

Jesus became a sacrifice for us on the cross, discharging all the debt of our humans' depravity, and disarming the devil. Golosae 2:13:15 states, "God save you who died of crime and physical disrespect with him, expel all our sins, remove the certificate written in legal texts that defy and disadvantage us, nail you to the cross, neutralize the rulers and powers, make them a spectacle, and beat them with the cross." The terms 'rules and crown princes' refer to the rule and power of the devil. Jesus completely disarmed this power and won it with the cross. The death of the cross neutralized the forces of the devil who seized the power of death. And Jesus must know that we will win enough. We must stand firm in faith and confront the devil, just as he said, "I know the truth, and the truth will free you." Galadians 5:1 said, "So stand strong and never be in the yoke of a servant again, because Christ gave us freedom to free us." We need to know these words thoroughly to win. In the early days of symbiosis, Jesus said, "Repent heaven is near," and ordered his disciples to go out and heal the ghosts. The Christian faith is the gospel that restores the salvation of the soul and the freedom of the body. If the gospel is proved and Jesus is trusted and saved anywhere, the ghosts must be driven out and get better. This is something that should be normal in Christianity.

Most of the depression that leads to suicide and unhappiness in many people today is caused by the oppression of ghosts. People with depression suffer from tremendous frustration and despair that they say, 'I can't live. I can't live.' These people must know and realize these truths. In other words, the truth is the amazing gospel truth that no one can harm us because Jesus defeated the devil's political affairs and powers on the cross, liberated us from the suffering of sin, and neutralized the devil. God gave power to those who believe in Jesus. Therefore, the devil has the power now, but the power is what we have. The military is capable, but it is the president who is in power to drive the army. Like him, we have no weapons and no power, but in a word, we can drive out the enemy ghosts and kick and crush them. Psalm 91 verse 13 states in the Bible, "You will tread on lions and vipers, and push down young lions and snakes." That is why we, who welcomed Jesus Christ as the savior, no longer need to be bound by ghosts and ruled.


In Maga 16:17-18, "These targets will follow those who believe, so they will drive out ghosts in my name, speak new dialects, pick up snakes, and put their hands on the sick, without being harmed no matter what poison they drink." Who are the believers? Aren't we? Therefore, believe that this will be done. If you admit and practice faith with your mouth, the Lord will keep it in history. After all, the fight against the devil on this earth is a battle of faith. This belief means believing in the word of God. Even though you can see no evidence, hear no sound, and nothing catch no hand, what God has said is bound to be achieved. The people of the world cannot believe or believe in God's words. Also, the devil rejects and denies the word of God. However, those who believe believe in God's words even if they are invisible and believe in them that God's words will make them miraculous.

 

4. a battle of faith

 

Faith is the reality of what we wish for. Faith is proof that we cannot see what has actually been achieved. If we have faith, it is the same as what has already been shown, even though it has not yet emerged. Therefore, if we believe in what we say, this belief will be true and proved, so we will surely prevail. Also, faith comes from hearing, and hearing comes from the words of Christ. Faith is invisible, but faith and evidence are the essence of reality. What you see is not because of what has emerged, but rather a battle between what you see and what you see, faith, is your invisible essence. True faith is true faith to endure without being discouraged over time and months have passed. Therefore, remember that the test of faith is a test of patience. The Bible says that we do not do what we do by faith and see. Remember that the resurrected Jesus said to Toma, "Do you believe in me as your birthplace? Blessed are those who do not see and believe." Those who believe cannot see cannot fully experience the power of Jesus Christ by sight. Rather, if you believe without seeing, you have the ability. Because if you believe without looking, it is made up of what you see. Therefore, patience is the most important thing in faith.

In the Book of Des Moines 6:11, he writes, "Only avoid these things, O man of God, and fight the good fight of faith by following righteousness, reverence, faith, love, patience, and warmth. For this reason, you have been called upon and have given good testimony before many witnesses." The good fight of faith here is the fight of perseverance. If you do not endure, nothing will be achieved. After praying, if you are discouraged from being seen or touched immediately, you will be defeated. John 5:4 said, "This is the victory for all who defeat the world, rather than for all who defeat it; this is our faith." If you have faith, you win over sin. If you have faith, you win over injustice. If you have faith, you win over disease. If you have faith, you win over all curses. If you have faith, you win over death. If you have faith, of course, you win over evil Satan and the devil. Winning comes from invisible faith, so invisible faith must be proved by patience. What do you do when God tells us, "Show us your faith!" Then we say, "I wait and I persevere because I believe in God. I have to confess that I persevere, even if I can't see or hear or catch anything." Our patience is proof of our faith. That way, God will say, "Right! You are right." Faith is patience. Faith is proof of perseverance. So once you have believed, never step back. I will give you the words, "My righteousness will live by faith! If you step back, my heart will not be pleased with me," and once I have believed it, I will give it to you. Live, die, prosper, or fail, or lose, or lose, and let the Lord take responsibility for it. Faith is not a complete faith that moves and changes according to situations. A complete faith is to "die or die" and entrust it. Therefore, throughout the history of faith, we can beat the devil and bring great victories.

The fight of faith lies in perseverance. If the fight lasts long and wishes are not fulfilled quickly, you will be hurt and discouraged. Now is the time when we think this is too much, and the castle and the enemy camp will collapse. When people say, "Oh, I can't take this anymore! I have to give up," it's the time to win. That's when the castle collapses, that's when the disease is gone, that's when the problem is solved, and that's when God's miracle appears. God does not allow you to be tested out of control. Therefore, that's when you say, "I can't take it anymore," that's when your response comes. Therefore, we desperately need faith in enduring and persevering until the last minute. The devil looks for those who will roam around like a crying lion. Today, no one exceptions is making a history of the devil coming and disrupting us, oppressing us, causing us to suffer from depression, and making us feel down and lamented. The fight against the devil is a fight of faith, which is prayer and patience. Pray and persevere, and the devil comes one way and then runs away the seven way. Therefore, we pray to God and pray against the devil by faith, and pray in the name of the Lord that he will be freed from the power of the devil, and that he will live well, strong in all things, and enjoy faith, hope, love, righteousness, peace, and joy.

 

-Prayers-

Our loving Father God! Thank you for showing us evidence that Jesus was sacrificed for us on the cross today because he tore himself apart and sheds blood. Thank you for shedding light on all the demons and powers and for winning through this. The devil no longer has the power to bind us together. The devil has already been defeated. Therefore, we are pleased to receive the power you have given us through the power of the cross, and please use it joyfully to lead a life of victory over the devil and full Holy Spirit.
I pray in the name of Jesus.
Aman!
