Satan Defeated

Michael Defeating Satan

Today's Daily Soap {Scripture | Observation | Application | Prayer}
FOR TODAY'S FULL READING, CLICK THE TITLE LINK ABOVE.
  • SWar broke out in Heaven. Michael and his Angels fought the Dragon. The Dragon and his Angels fought back, but were no match for Michael. They were cleared out of Heaven, not a sign of them left. The great Dragon—ancient Serpent, the one called Devil and Satan, the one who led the whole earth astray—thrown out, and all his Angels thrown out with him, thrown down to earth. Then I heard a strong voice out of Heaven saying, Salvation and power are established! Kingdom of our God, authority of his Messiah! The Accuser of our brothers and sisters thrown out, who accused them day and night before God. They defeated him through the blood of the Lamb and the bold word of their witness. They weren't in love with themselves; they were willing to die for Christ. So rejoice, O Heavens, and all who live there, but doom to earth and sea, For the Devil's come down on you with both feet; he's had a great fall; He's wild and raging with anger; he hasn't much time and he knows it. Revelation 12:7-12 [MSG]
  • O: In the end times Satan will be set loose to return to Heaven, where he will again be defeated.
  • A: Evil has no place in this world. God did not design the world for evil, and did not design us for an evil world. When Lucifer was an angel, he coveted the position of the Most High God and was cast from Heaven, with all of those angels who chose to follow him instead of God. Lucifer tempted Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, introducing evil into the world. In the end times, all hell will break loose, literally. Satan will return to Heaven with his army of angels to be defeated by the archangel Michael and a host of Heavenly angels. Satan and his minions will  return to earth to wreak doom and destruction upon those left behind. But as Satan has always been doomed to defeat, so he will again face defeat when Christ sets up His Kingdom on earth.
  • P: Father, protect us from the evil one, as we strive to do Your will.
