SATAN’S POWER IS LIMITED

19^TH ,FEBRUARY 2022

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Judges 5-7

TEXT: Exodus 9:1-12

1 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh and tell him, ‘Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: “Let My people go, that they may serve Me. 

2 For if you refuse to let them go, and still hold them, 

3 behold, the hand of the Lord will be on your cattle in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the oxen, and on the sheep—a very severe pestilence.

4 And the Lord will make a difference between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt. So nothing shall die of all that belongs to the children of Israel.” ’ ” 

5 Then the Lord appointed a set time, saying, “Tomorrow the Lord will do this thing in the land.”

6 So the Lord did this thing on the next day, and all the livestock of Egypt died; but of the livestock of the children of Israel, not one died.

7 Then Pharaoh sent, and indeed, not even one of the livestock of the Israelites was dead. But the heart of Pharaoh became hard, and he did not let the people go.

8 So the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “Take for yourselves handfuls of ashes from a furnace, and let Moses scatter it toward the heavens in the sight of Pharaoh. 

9 And it will become fine dust in all the land of Egypt, and it will cause boils that break out in sores on man and beast throughout all the land of Egypt.” 

10 Then they took ashes from the furnace and stood before Pharaoh, and Moses scattered them toward heaven. And they caused boils that break out in sores on man and beast. 

11 And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils were on the magicians and on all the Egyptians. 

12 But the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh; and he did not heed them, just as the Lord had spoken to Moses.

KEY VERSE: Exodus 9:11

“And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boil was upon the magicians, and upon all the Egyptians.”

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

A believer has Christ’s unlimited power.

THE MESSAGE:

As Brother Edward passed through the market to buy some household items, he heard the excited noise of some people who gathered around a snake charmer with a huge snake in display. The charmer was issuing instructions to the snake and it was obeying to the delight of the crowd. But something happened as soon as Edward, a believer, drew near. The snake suddenly fell to the ground and lay motionless. The charmer tried to put it back to action to no avail.

Our discussion centers on two plagues - the murrain upon livestock and boils upon all Egyptians including the magicians who could not heal themselves or stand before Moses. Satan’s power is limited. The magicians, at the beginning, tried to mimic God’s miracles through Moses by making their rods turn to serpents and by turning water to blood. They soon discovered their magical powers were no match for the power of God.

Now, with the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ by which He “spoiled principalities and powers”, the dominion of Satan over believers has been shattered. Today, “the devils are subject unto us through [His] name” (Luke 10:17). Knowing and living with the knowledge that “we are of God... and that greater is he that is in [us] than he that is in the world”, is a liberating force.

Believers have been given authority and dominion over all the powers of darkness. There is nothing to fear about Satan and his agents, because at the name of Jesus every knee must bow - of things in heaven and of things on earth and of things under the earth. You are more than a conqueror through Christ.

DO HAVE A BLESSED DAY
