Memorise:
Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his
devices. 2nd Corinthians 2:11
Read:
Acts 28:1-6 (KJV)
1 And when
they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita.
2 And the
barbarous people shewed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and
received us every one, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.
3 And when
Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a
viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.
4 And when
the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among
themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the
sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.
5 And he
shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.
6 Howbeit
they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but
after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed
their minds, and said that he was a god.
Message:-
Many people, because of
their high level of secular knowledge, enlightenment and exposure, believe they
have answers to everything in life and may thus not believe in the reality of
the spiritual realm.

They believe there is no hell, no heaven, therefore no
God; all things – sickness, accidents, death, infant mortality, business
failure, natural disasters, physical disability, barrenness, murder, violent
crimes and so on, can be explained scientifically.
However, we are often
confronted with situations that defy any human understanding; cases that are
beyond scientific explanation, where an attack in the dream becomes a reality upon
awaking, or when a person’s health is suffering but all medical tests reveal
nothing wrong. The Bible in Ephesians 6:12 provides some insight into the root
of the matter.

“For
we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against
powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual
wickedness in high places.”
Spiritual activities have
become an integral part of this present world, since Satan was thrown out of
Heaven unto the earth (Revelation 12:12). 1st Peter 5:8 says, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your
adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may
devour.” The solution to the devil’s rampant attack on humility is found in
1st John 3:8, “…For this
purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the
devil.”
Open Heaven 20 August 2020 Thursday: Prayer Point
All power belongs to Jesus
(Matthew 28:18). At His name, even the devil trembles (James 2:19). No matter
the greatness of learning, research and technology, a very active spiritual
realm exists. If you are born again, congratulations. You have the backing of
Jesus to upturn all activities of the enemy against your life and family.
However, if you are not yet born again, you are completely open to all the
antic of the kingdom of darkness. Accept Jesus as your personal Lord and
Saviour today so you can destroy the works of the devil in your life and
family.
Prayer Point
Father, reveal the reality of the negative supernatural, and Your
superiority over it, in the mighty name of Jesus.
