The Triumphant Churchdisagree without being disagreeable. Walking in love
closes the door to the devil. When you get over into the
Spirit and you walk in love, many issues you thought
were so important don't seem to be so important any
more. We shouldn't let little issues divide us. Be one—
stand fast in one spirit.
Stand Fast in the Lord
PHILIPPIANS 4:1
1 Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and
longed for, my joy and crown, so STAND FAST
IN THE LORD, my dearly beloved.
What else does the believer do to take his stand
against Satan? The Bible says we are to stand fast in
the Lord. What does that mean? The answer is found in
Ephesians 6:10.
EPHESIANS 6:10
10 Finally, my brethren, be STRONG IN THE
LORD, and [be strong] IN THE POWER OF HIS
MIGHT.
Taking our stand against Satan includes taking our
rightful position in Christ. Did you notice in Ephesians
6:10 that the Bible says we are to be strong in two
areas:
- Be strong IN THE LORD, and
- Be strong IN THE POWER OF HIS MIGHT.
To be strong in the Lord, you'll have to be strong in
His Word. But what is the power of God's might? The
power of God's might is the Holy Ghost. Go through the
New Testament and notice how many times "power" is
mentioned in connection with the Holy Spirit. Some of
these verses are listed below (See also Acts 10:38; Rom.
15:13,19; 1 Thess. 1:5).
