SATAN IS NOT AS POWERFUL AS WHAT MANY PEOPLE THINK
SATAN IS NOT AS POWERFUL AS WHAT MANY PEOPLE THINK
The name Jesus is a name with the nature of love and with the power and authority of love.
One night while sleeping, a demon got into my house.
You see, even though my physical body was asleep, but as a spirit am always awake. And through my spiritual eyes, I noticed that my mosquito net had so many mosquitoes on the outside. I know there're mosquitoes physically, but not as the way I saw spiritually. They were many on my net as an army of demonic mosquitoes.
You know many diseases and afflictions are caused by demons.
Physical mosquitoes are not always the direct cause of malaria, demons cause malaria too. It's just that many don't see how satan has a field day in many people's lives.
First and foremost, it is important for you to know that it is not every sickness that is directly from the devil. Sometimes there are different things that happen to people and Jesus never even gave us the impression that all sicknesses and diseases were directly connected with satan. Ofcourse he has remote involvement because he was the cause of it from the very beginning. Because the bible tells us through sin death came into the world and sickness is incipient death. So, otherwise it would have not been possible for you to be sick at all.
And even though it is satan directly caused a disease, that doesn't necessarily mean that doctors can't cure it because satan is not omnipotent. He doesn’t have all the power, he can’t control all of nature. So, no matter what he does we still have some power, we still have some influence in our own lives as individuals. We can exercise our authority. For example, if you study in the scripture you find there is a story about a man who was demon possessed in Gadara. The bible tells us that he had a legend of devils, and as Jesus came by that street, the bible says the man ran towards Jesus. Now, the devils didn’t make him go to Jesus. If they have anything to do with it they would have wanted him not to go there but they couldn’t stop the man from running towards Jesus even though he was demon possessed (Mark 5:1-9). And that is about how far it gets when demons can control a man's life to a large extent.
So, even people who are demon possessed are not hundred percent controlled by the devil because the individual has a will of his own. Now, when you understand that, you can understand that no matter what the devil does we still have some power, some influence because human beings were made to be higher than angels especially when it comes to that, that this demons are falling angels. So, even though, if satan has done something, you can undo what satan has done to a large extent, you can undo it. Let’s assume that satan caused a man to have an accident, lets even assume that he was so possessed, he had an accident and he damaged his car. You can take the car for the repairs, satan can’t stop the repair of the car. You can fix the car, even if your tyres got deflated through a satanic manipulation. How come you can fix the car, so why can’t satan stop you from fixing the car. If satan has the power many people think he does, he would have killed everybody, so why hasn’t he done it? he will like to. The reason he hasn’t done it is because he can’t. So, that proves that satan doesn’t have all the power and so we can a lot of times undo a lot of what the devil has done when we understand how but in many things even in medical science they don’t have all the answers and where they don’t have the answers they are unable to do anything about it. So, we don’t at all imply that when the devil has done something we can’t undo it, no. See man was raised or made to have more power than satanic forces but because he fell back there in the garden, he lost his authority and so Jesus Christ has come to give us authority in his name. So, that what we are unable to do by human ability, we can do in his name which is higher than human ability. So, you can do alot as a human being and that’s why the doctors can also do a lot and they will do more but then where they fail, we(children of His love) can do much more.
Anyways, I thought it's important to let you know that, but let me continue with the demon entering my house.
And so I heard as if someone got into my house and I could hear someone walk across the sitting room. I wondered if I forgot locking the outside door before getting to bed. I never lock my bedroom after I have locked the house because am alone.
Then I saw a demonic wind blow across my room, and the mosquitoes began to fly around the room.
Then someone got into my room. I knew it was a demon, but I wanted to look straight at his face. Then I asked him, why he is here. He told me that he is hear to wake me up. Then I noticed the demon used to watch from afar when an angel comes to wake me up, and he thought he could make some sense out of that. The Spirit of love already woke me up even before the demon arrived and He always does that everytime I have to extend praying for others outside my physical body or do something else outside my physical body, so I never bothered asking him why he thinks he can wake me up. And so I wanted to rebuke him. I began saying, "In the name....." I didn't finish the last part of the sentence and he knew what am about to say and he quickly disappeared.
