Theme: Overcoming In the Evil Day
Topic: Authority Over Devils
Mark 16:17
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
Believe it or not, there is an ongoing battle between the devil and believers. The satan and his demons seek to frustrate, steal, kill and destroy believers and their visions (John 10:10). Believers however have authority over devils.
You “shall cast out devils in my name…” means you “shall have authority over devils in my name.” Notice you don’t need to talk to God or Jesus Christ to cast out the devils. You have the authority to cast them out. The devils were subject to the authority of the seventy disciples when Jesus Christ sent them out (Luke 10:17).
Jesus Christ has sent you into the world also (Matthew 10:16), and given you power to cast out devils in His name (Mark 16:17). Don’t stay quiet while devils torment you and your household. Don’t go running around in confusion looking for strange “men and women of God” for deliverance. You have authority over devils – cast them out.
Prayer Assignment:
1. Begin to exercise your authority over devils which have been assigned to your household. If you need help, see your pastor.
