“But Jesus said, “It is written,” (Matthew 4:4)
I get a lot of visions and revelations relating to myself being on the Path of Life. The Path is narrow with many twists and turns, ups and downs and there are tempting side trails along the way. Sometimes I’m tempted, like everyone I guess, to get off the Path, and sometimes I do, but God is always right there with me to guide me back in the right direction. Thank you, God, for never leaving me! Well, recently I got a vision that I want to share that I hope will be a help for anyone who encounters resistance on The Path.
While walking the Path, this demon jumps out from the bushes on the left side, ( Is there a significance in my vision that he came from the left? I don’t know.). He comes out mocking, accusing and tempting me to get off the Path. But, this time, I’m prepared; we have to be prepared. After he throws all his lies and junk at me, I say, “Hey, wait a minute. Haven’t I read that you have been defeated?” “that through death He, (Jesus), might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil,” (Hebrews 2:14). The demon has a strange look on his face. “And, He who is in me is greater that you are.” (1 John 4:4). And, I’ve been given authority to trample on you and all your so called power and nothing you can do will harm me!” (Luke 10:19). This demon is realizing that, maybe, he’s seeking to destroy the wrong person. I continue: “I’ve read and believe that I’m an overcomer and more than a conqueror.” (Romans 8:37). “And I have on the full armor of God and the Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God that I have read, believe and stand on.” (Ephesians 6:10-18). So, as you can see, I’ve submitted to my God and I resist you in the name of Jesus and command you to shut up and get out of my face!” (James 4:7).
At this point, the demon realizes he’s picked the wrong person to harass and disappears. frightened, back into the bushes. I then feel a gentle pat on my back and turn and see Jesus standing there smiling. “You did good. Keep using the weapons I’ve given you and remember I’m always here with you.” “Let’s go on.”
It’s good to know the Word of God and use it to resist the enemy. I pray that this revelation that God gave me will help you to submit and resist when you are confronted. Memorize these verses or some that you can find and use them like Jesus did in the wilderness…”IT IS WRITTEN!”
