I am reminded of Jesus reply to those sent out -- who were given authority to tread on the devil, JT.
Luke 10
19 "Behold, I have given you authority to (1) tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you.
20 "Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that (2) your names are recorded in heaven."
21 (3) At that very time He rejoiced greatly in the Holy Spirit, and said, "I praise You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to infants. Yes, Father, for this way was well-pleasing in Your sight. |
