BELIEVER'S VICTORY IN CHRIST  
TEXT: Luke 10:17-20
Key verse: Luke 10:18 And He said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from 
heaven.
Every believer can enjoy constant victory over the powers of darkness and even minister to others also. Believers' hope is based on the power of the indwelling Christ, power in the blood of Christ, power in the Name of Christ, power of the written word of God, power of the abiding presence of Christ, faith in the promises of God, power of prevailing prayer, putting on the whole armour of God, and depending on the power of the Holy Spirit. 
     
Luke 10:17-20
17 And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and overall the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven. 

The devils were subject to the Disciples of Christ not just because of the power Christ gave them but also because their names were written in the book of life. From here and from the life and ministry of Christ, it could be established that to overcome the powers of darkness, one has to: (1) be very sure he is born again (2) living a clean and holy life before God and men.
Once these are in place, you only need to apply the A, B, C, principles:
A. Appropriate all the biblical promises to yourself.
B. Believe in the presence and power of God to deliver and defend you.
C. Claim your victory in Christ. 

Thought for the day: When they come in one way, they will flee in seven ways!  
Song for the day: We are victorious, yes we are victorious, glory be to God…
Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 23-24; 2 Timothy 2

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
