(Your Deliverance is Now)
TO THE BIBLE: Colossians 1:13 NKJV
“He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love,”
LET’S TALK
Precious had always lived in fear. Every strange sound at night, every bad dream made her think a demon was after her. But a vital blessing of our salvation in Christ Jesus is deliverance from darkness.
Recall what we said salvation is in one of our previous studies: deliverance, wholeness, and preservation.
The first step was the removal of sin. Jesus took away your sins and delivered you from the dominion of darkness. You’re now separated from the influence and control of darkness.
Ephesians 1:21 NKJV says you’re seated with Christ in heavenly places, “Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come.”
Can you see why, having received salvation, you don’t need another deliverance from Satan? You’re superior to Satan. Jesus told us to cast out demons.
Mark 16:17 NKJV says, “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues.”
In Luke 10:19 NKJV, He said, “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.” He’s given you control, authority, and dominion to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy. Hallelujah!
Never be afraid of demons; they’re under your feet. The Bible says God has raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus (Ephesians 2:6).
You live in the Kingdom of His Love-Son where life and immortality reigns; and it’s a Kingdom of light. Praise God!

Pray:
Dear Father, I thank you for translating me into the Kingdom of your dear Son, Jesus Christ. Satan has no authority over me, for I live in the glorious Kingdom of light. I walk in victory, free from the control of darkness, and I reign in life through Christ. Amen.
