Luke 10:19 AMP Behold! I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and [physical and mental strength and ability] over all the power that the enemy [possesses]; and nothing shall in any way harm you.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
*THINGS THAT A FOOL MIGHT SAY*
• There is no God that I can see, so who cares, I’ll do my own thing
• So maybe there is a God, I’ll get Him when I can, He’ll wait
• Now that I’ve been told I’m a Christian, no problem, nothing for me to do, I’m heaven bound I’m okay as long I go to church Sunday and mid-week, the rest of it is mine
• I don’t need my Bible every time when I go to church, I’ll remember what he said
• Taking notes in Sunday School, give me a break, now it’s getting like work
• Everybody goes through backsliding, now it’s my turn it can’t be helped
• Sinning is something I’m going to do so what’s the big deal God will be there to forgive me

Hebrews 4:12 AMPFor the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature].

John 14:15-17 NASB
“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. “ I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.
