defense against the Devil - 6

4.      I believer that not only are we to quote Scripture to defeat Satan, but we are to use the power of Jesus' name.  There is power in the name of Jesus.



a.          Believers are baptized into His name (Acts 2:38).



b.         Believers are forgiven in His name (1 Jn. 2:12).



c.          Believers pray through His name (Col. 3:17).



d.         Believers have life in His name (Jn. 20:31).



e.          Believers can defeat Satan and his troops in His name.



(1)       In (Acts 16:18), the Apostle Paul was having some trouble with a slave girl who was demoned possessed because she kept shouting “These men are servants of the Most High God, who are telling you the way to be saved.”



(2)       Finally Paul became so troubled that he turned around and said to the spirit, “In the name of Jesus Christ I command you to come out of her!”  At that moment the spirit left her.



(3)       In (Luke 10:17), Jesus had sent 72 disciples out to minister to the people.  And after their journey they came up to Jesus and said, “Lord even the demons submit to us in your name.”



5.      My friends there is power in the name of Jesus. When you are tempted, and recognize that Satan is coming after you with his full artillery, go to the Father in prayer and ask Him to help you defeat Satan & his troops in power of Jesus Name.
