TOPIC: Demons Are Not A Factor

---

SCRIPTURE: "And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus (Ephesians 2:6)."

---

Let’s establish something very important: you’re not on the same level with demons, no matter how high they are. You’re seated together with Christ in the heavenly realms. That’s your place. That’s your position. It’s important that you understand this.

Therefore, when it comes to dealing with demons, it’s not a struggle. It’s not a situation where you keep exchanging words with them. No. That’s not the picture the Word gives. You don’t negotiate with demons; you cast them out! The Lord Jesus used the strongest words possible. He said, “…In my name shall they cast out devils…” (Mark 16:17).

To “cast out” means to thrust out, to drive out, to pluck out. It gives the picture of forceful removal. That’s the authority He gave you. You’re to command demons to clear out. And He didn’t put any limits to it. He didn’t say if they’re close, you can cast them out, but if they’re far, you can’t. No. He gave you a Name that is above every name, “That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth” (Philippians 2:10).

Therefore, it doesn’t matter where they are; when you speak in the Name of Jesus, they have to obey. You give the Word wherever you are, they hear you, and they obey. That’s why Satan and the cohorts of hell are not a factor at all. In fact, when you’re told that demons are responsible for something, it should make it easier for you. They understand authority.

This is the reality: you’re seated with Christ. You operate from a place of dominion. Therefore, refuse to fear, refuse to negotiate with demons. Exercise your authority and enforce your dominion over them in Jesus’ Name.

Today's devotional reminds us that believers live from a position of victory, not fear. Through Christ, we have been raised and seated with Him in heavenly places, far above every power of darkness. Our confidence is not in our own strength but in the authority Jesus has given us. As we remain rooted in God's Word and conscious of our identity in Christ, we can stand firm, exercise our God-given authority, and walk daily in the dominion and victory that belong to every child of God.

PRAYER/CONFESSION
 

I’m seated together with Christ in the heavenly realms, far above all principality, power and every name that is named. I exercise authority in the Name of Jesus, and every force of darkness responds to my words. I’m reigning with Christ. Satan and his cohorts are under my feet. Hallelujah!
