Given March 2018
See if you can picture this in your mind: There is this large, dark hole in the ground which is the hole of addiction, bad choices or some other sin. And there is a Christian, attached to a metal chain coming from the hole, being dragged, kicking and screaming, slowly toward it. The devil is standing by the hole directing the process and laughing as the Christian gets closer and closer to the pit. Can you visualize it? Then, as the Christian cries out for help, they suddenly remember a scripture, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” (Luke 10:19). They think, “Hey, that’s right. I have the power!” So they speak it out loud and suddenly they are transformed into a Jesus Super Hero! They say, “Devil, I rebuke you and bind you in the name of Jesus my Lord!” When the devil sees the transformation and hears the words of God, he drops control of the chain and runs away. Our Jesus Super Hero then grabs the chain, breaks it and tosses it into the hole which quickly closes up to nothing!
Our Hero then turns and sees Jesus standing there applauding the scene and walks over to Him. “Thank you Jesus for reminding me of who I am, what I have and what I can do with Your power.” Jesus gives them a high five and says, “Now, don’t forget this and don’t let yourself get hooked back up to that chain!” “Remember, you have the POWER!” Can you see it and hear it?
Maybe you’re hooked to a chain right now and are being pulled toward that hole of sin. Or maybe you’re already in the hole. Cry out to Jesus, take hold of His power and see yourself breaking the chain or flying out of the hole. You have the POWER!
