In this message I hope to tell you these 4 truths 

Remember 

Repent

Resist 

Remember who you are in Christ 
 
Colossians 3:1–2 (ESV) — 1 If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.
 
 
Colossians 2:9–10 (ESV) — 9 For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, 10 and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.
 
 
Rely on Gods strength 
 
James 4:6 (ESV) — 6 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”
 
 
 
God is calling you to a place of surrender 
 
 
 
James 4:1–5 (ESV) — 1 What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? 2 You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. 3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions. 4 You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. 5 Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, “He yearns jealously over the spirit that he has made to dwell in us”?
 
God is calling you to another level of commitment 
 
 
 
God is calling you to draw near to Him

Repent of your sin 

 
James 4:8–9 (ESV) — 8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom.
 
 
Admit your sin 
 
 
 
Give up your pride 
 
Resist the Devil 
 
James 4:7 (ESV) — 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
 
Know the word of God 
 
1 Peter 5:6 (ESV) — 6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you,
 
 
1 Peter 5:8 (ESV) — 8 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.

    "1-23-2022 The Believers Authority in Spiritual Warfare". Released: 2022.
    The Believers Authority in Spiritual Warfare 
     
    John 12:31 (ESV) — 31 Now is the judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be cast out.
     
     
    Genesis 3:15 (ESV) — 15 I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel.”
     
     
    Hebrews 2:1–9 (ESV) — 1 Therefore we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. 2 For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable, and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution, 3 how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard, 4 while God also bore witness by signs and wonders and various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will. 5 For it was not to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking. 6 It has been testified somewhere, “What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you care for him? 7 You made him for a little while lower than the angels; you have crowned him with glory and honor, 8 putting everything in subjection under his feet.” Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. At present, we do not yet see everything in subjection to him. 9 But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
     

    1. The power of Jesus Christ 

     
     
    The right time for Jesus

    Isaiah 9:6 (ESV) — 6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
     
     
     
    Satans attack on Jesus 
     
     
    Jesus conquest over Satan 
     
     
    Luke 22:3 (ESV) — 3 Then Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve.
     
     
     
     
     
    2. Jesus paid the price for your freedom

    Ephesians 2:1–3 (ESV) — 1 And you were dead in the trespasses and sins 2 in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.
     
     
    1 Corinthians 15:26 (ESV) — 26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death.
     
    Canceling our debt 
     
     
    Colossians 2:13–14 (ESV) — 13 And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, 14 by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.
     
     
    Announcing the victory 
     
    Matthew 28:18 (ESV) — 18 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
     
     
     
    Getting Gods receipt 
     
    Acts 2:32 (ESV) — 32 This Jesus God raised up, and of that we all are witnesses.
     
     
     
     
    Satan is disarmed 
     
     
    Colossians 2:15 (ESV) — 15 He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him.

    3. Your position in Christ 
     
     
    Sharing in Christs triumph

    Hebrews 2:14 (ESV) — 14 Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil,

    Fight from victory 
     
     
    Revelation 20:1–3 (ESV) — 1 Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding in his hand the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain. 2 And he seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, 3 and threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he might not deceive the nations any longer, until the thousand years were ended. After that he must be released for a little while.

    SundayJanuary 16, 2022 – Satan: Your Adversary, the Devil

    Satan: Your Adversary, the Devil

    1 Peter 5:8 ESV

    8 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
     

    Matthew 6:13 ESV

    13 And lead us not into temptation,
    but deliver us from evil. 

    1 John 3:12 ESV

    12We should not be like Cain, who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother’s righteous.
     
    Powerful
     
    1 Thessalonians 2:9
    9The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders,
     
    Acts 26:18 ESV
    18to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’
     
    Ephesians 2:2 ESV
    2in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience—
     
    Ephesians 6:11-12 ESV
    11Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
     
    Scheming
     
     
     
     
    2 Corinthians 11:14 ESV
    14And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
     
    2 Corinthians 2:11 ESV
    11so that we would not be outwitted by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his designs.
     
    2 Satan's Curse
     
    A Change in Name
     
    Matthew 25:41 ESV
    41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.
     
    Ephesians 2:8-10 ESV
     8For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
     
    3 Satan's Strategy
     
    "Hold everything in your hands lightly, otherwise it hurts when God pries your fingers open."
    Corrie Ten Boom
     
    The Weapon of Power and Wealth

     6and said to him, “To you I will give all this authority and their glory, for it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whom I will.
     
    1 John 5:19 ESV
    19We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
    The Weapon of Deception
     
    John 8:44 ESV
     44You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
     
    The Weapon of Opposition
     
    The Weapon of Accusation
     
     Revelation 12:10 ESV
    10And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God.
    Ephesians 4:27 ESV
    27and give no opportunity to the devil.
     Satan's Defeat
     
    Cross
     
    Romans 8:34 ESV
    34Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.
     
    Luke 10:19 ESV
    19Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.
     
    Commitment
     
    Galatians 2:20 ESV
    20I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
     
    Luke 10:20 ESV
    20Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
