Welcome to the Open Heavens TEENS Devotional Review for 3rd September 2020

Dealing with Serpents
Luke 10:18-21

The Eagle is a royal bird, that flies higher than other birds.
The Eagle’s nest is also highly placed but snakes try to get there so they can feast on the Eagle’s eggs
Like the Eagle’s nest , God has placed you as a believer in Christ (Colossians 3) and set you above all principalities and powers which are agents of the devil.

Eph.2.6 – and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,

Serpents represents the Devil and it’s agents.

Despite your highly seated position, the devil may try to bring temptations your way as he did to Jesus(Matthew 4:1-4) but you can use you authority By the WORD of God
James 4:7… Resist the devil and he will flee from You.

You cannot resist the devil in sin, that’s why it also said first Submit to God.

Dear Child of God, you can overcome the world because Christ has overcome.(John 14:28)

Store the Word of God in your heart and it will be a defence against Serpents.

Summary: Use the Sword of the Spirit(the word) against Serpents
