TOPIC: The Strong Man Has Been Bound (Rhapsody of Realities 21 October 2026)
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:
Or else how can one enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house (Matthew 12:29).
The Lord Jesus unveiled a profound spiritual principle when He spoke about binding the strong man. He explained that before a strong man’s house can be plundered, the strong man himself must first be bound. In those words, He revealed His mission and ultimate triumph over Satan.
For generations, humanity lived under the influence of darkness. Satan exercised dominion over the world system and held men captive through fear, deception, and bondage. But God had a plan. The Lord Jesus came to confront the adversary and dismantle his authority.
The ministry of Jesus was a continual demonstration of His superiority over the devil. He cast out demons, healed the sick, delivered the oppressed, and exercised dominion over every work of darkness. His death on the Cross and triumphant resurrection brought that victory to its culmination. The adversary who had held mankind in bondage was defeated.
The Bible says, “…For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil” (1 John 3:8). This understanding is the reason we don’t negotiate with Satan or his cohorts of darkness: we cast them out: “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils…” (Mark 16:17).
You’re not confronting a powerful enemy. You’re standing in the authority of the One who has already subdued him. Through Christ Jesus, your victory over Satan was a decisive one—absolute victory. Therefore, refuse to live in fear of the devil or his works. Live in the consciousness of Christ’s triumph.
CONFESSION
In Christ, I have defeated Satan and the forces of darkness. I walk in the dominion and power of the resurrected Christ, and in the glorious liberty of the sons of God. I’m superior to Satan, his systems and his structures. I’m established forever in the victory of Christ. Amen.
