“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death”.
Revelation 12:11 KJV
The devil was overcome by the redemptive blood. The book of Ephesians 1:7 says, “In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sin, according to the riches of His Grace”. Did you see that? In Him we have; not that we will have. We already do have. Our passage today affirms that they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony. In other words, it was the blood with which we were cleansed from sin and brought into the Kingdom.
Secondly, we have the word of our testimony. That is, the bold declaration of the Word of God in the face of every contradictory evidence. Beloved, whatever is confronting you, no matter how bad it is, you have to declare the Word of God until you see your desired result.
Thirdly, they loved not their lives unto death. That means, head or tail, I still stand and will remain standing whether I understand how I am going to come out of the situation or not. You must have a total commitment to the confession of the faith that you have made in Christ Jesus, knowing that faithful is He who has promised, and He will bring it to pass.
Ephesians 1:4 says, “According as He has chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love”. Beloved, you are His choice. How dare you think that the devil would have the final say in your matter? God chose you before the foundation of the world. Ephesians 2:10 declares that, “We are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus unto good works…” That means anything you are involved in will work. So, what is it that is trying to challenge your destiny? Today, I put a stop to it. Stay put. Your destiny will manifest.
