It’s Over! A Defeated Foe!

ITS OVER!

Isa 14:12  How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

Isa 14:15  Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. Isa 14:16  They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
 

Isa 25:8  The LORD All-Powerful will destroy the power of death and wipe away all tears. No longer will his people be insulted everywhere.
The LORD has spoken! In the past, all of his people were sad, but God will take away that sadness. All of this will happen because the LORD said it would.
So many times we fail to recognize that we are not the defeated ones. Satan is the defeated foe! When God conquered death, hell and the grave our destiny was secured and settled. Too many times we do not realize nor do we walk in the power of the victory given us on Calvary.
The by product of the suffering of the cross was the salvation of our souls. The only power the devil has over us is the power we give him through biblical ignorance. Did anyone ever notice, Satan’ s fall was final where as our fall was not? He has no chance or opportunity to rise again or repent. His destiny is eternal damnation, but according to scripture ours is eternal salvation.
“ rejoice not against me O my enemy for when I falI I shall arise again with healing..” God is faithful and just to forgive if we confess “
Yes we can get back up, get back in the fight, but Satan can’t!  He’s down for the count.  Notice something about Satan’s fall where he went from the angelic realm to less than the human dimension, he lost his glory as an angel and in the end many will look upon him and declare is this the man?
According to scripture we as men were made a little lower than the angels. The point is at present he is less than a man! and it is you who has the power over him!!!
“Greater is he that is in you” If God be for you who can be against you” 
“no weapon formed against thee shall prosper” get thee behind me Satan
How could we not rejoice and shout praises! Knowing that God will one day wipe away all tears, abolish death, pain, misery, shame and fear, sadness and heartbreak..
Isa 38:17  Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.

Think about it…
