But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.
– 1 John 4:4(NLT)
GREATER SPIRIT LIVING IN YOU
A poem and essay by ILMA
When you decided to commit to Christ
The Holy Spirit will live inside your heart
If you belong to God, then you have already won
It doesn’t matter what the world’s spirit has sown
The Lord is greater than he who is in the world
Use the sword of the Spirit which is God’s word
Declare it out loud to stop the lies from coming
The devil will cower if you are constantly confessing. ________________________________________
There are so many myths about Satan that the movies have spread to the public that are really lies. The film industry sensationalizes how much power the enemy has but in reality, they have very little power. Once a person becomes a believer, the Holy Spirit dwells in them, so the enemy’s ability to attack us is very limited. The only way he can defeat us is when we turn our backs to God through sin and do not have a relationship with him.
The bible says that if you are a believer, you have already won the victory and nothing can ever defeat you. The Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.
