CRUSHING THE ENEMY
A poem and essay by ILMA
Believers were given authority to trample on lions and serpents
To take full control and power to win, we must confess and repent
If you obey God’s will and use the sword of the Spirit, the devil will flee
One of his tactics is to generate lies so you cannot hear truth or see.
Run to the throne each time you experience all his attacks
This is the only way you can expose him and fight back
You cannot do it in your own strength or you will lose
Allow God to do the fighting and remain faithful and true.

One night I was asleep and felt a power hovering on top of my head in the pitch black darkness in our master’s bedroom. My husband was in deep sleep but I was awakened by this feeling that there was moving spirits hovering on top of my body. I usually have verses printed on paper beside me in the bed and memorize them before I went to bed. I just memorized a parallel verse to Psalm 91:13, Luke 10:19 that night before bed. I was able say out loud the verse says that I have power over the enemy and crush him and that I will not be harmed. The hovering spirit flee.
PRAYER
Thank you for the authority you have given me Lord.
REFLECTION
When was the last time you were victorious over the devil’s tactics?
