Protected by the blood of Jesus
Irene Park became a committed Christian. Her story is remarkable. She was once a high witch in the state of Florida, who tempted boys and girls to take part in occult activities. She stated that the children she could never reach were those whose parents protected them by praying over them in the name of Jesus, standing on the merits of Christ's atoning blood.
This story shows that the most powerful defence we have against any of the Enemy's schemes is praying in the name of Jesus and standing on the merits of His shed blood. Jesus defeated Satan when He died on the cross. And today He's saying to you, 'My victory is your victory, and My authority is your authority - you can use it!'
It's important that we acknowledge the existence of the devil, but we've got absolutely no need to be afraid of him because 'the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world' (1 John 4:4 NIV). When we deny the existence of Satan or underestimate his power, we give him the advantage over us. But God has given us the key to overcoming Satan's power in our lives: 'And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony' (Revelation 12:11 NKJV).
So, let's start declaring what the blood of Jesus has done on our behalf. When we do, the devil's schemes for us will come to nothing. Romans 8:31 reminds us that 'if God is for us, who can be against us?' (NIV). It's a promise we can always rely on.
