USEFULNESS TO SATAN, THAT DEFEATED FOE

“And having chosen them, he called them to come to him. And having called them, he gave them right standing with himself. And having given them right standing, he gave them his glory.” Romans 8:30 (NLT)

Satan, that defeated foe, needs us so he can point out to YAHWEH in the courts of Heaven what we have done wrong. He wants us so he can accuse us of not being in right standing before the FATHER. He wants to mess with our minds so we totally lose sight of who we are in CHRIST JESUS. If he can rid us of the understanding that we have much more authority than we are walking in, he has succeeded.

Is satan telling you that you don’t have the right to stand before JEHOVAH? Is he telling you that you don’t have any authority to STAND HIM DOWN? Is he telling you that you have no authority to ask for healing, a breakthrough? Let us look at Romans 8:30. 

“And having chosen them, he called them to come to him. And having called them, he gave them right standing with himself. And having given them right standing, he gave them his glory.”‍

‍

First, GOD has chosen you: “And having chosen them…”

HE made a deliberate choice when HE saw you and formed you in your mother’s womb.

“You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. ¹⁶ You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.” Psalm 139:15-16 (NLT)

‍

Second, not only did GOD choose us…HE then called us: “…he called them…”

This shows how much sincerity is in HIS choosing. HE knows us by name.

“For God saved us and called us to live a holy life. He did this, not because we deserved it, but because that was his plan from before the beginning of time—to show us his grace through Christ Jesus.” 2 Timothy 1:9 (NLT)

‍

Third, GOD gave us right-standing with HIM:“…he gave them right standing with himself…”‍

This can only be achieved with and through the Blood of JESUS.

“Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.” Romans 5:1 (NLT)

Last, HE gave us HIS glory: “…he gave them his glory….”

We get to share in HIS glory, wear HIS glory, and walk around in HIS glory…not ours.

“I have given them the glory you gave me, so they may be one as we are one.” John 17:22 (NLT)

‍

So, tell me, brothers and sisters, tell me saints, which/what devil in hell can accuse you?

He comes and will come to accuse you but remind him that you have right standing rights because of the Blood of JESUS. Remind him that YAHWEH deliberately choose you and called you by name! Remind him that JESUS HIMSELF has given you HIS glory. Hallelujah!

Satan is so blinded by jealousy and pride that he cannot see or refuses to see that he is fighting a losing battle. EVERY SINGLE TIME!

He needs us to bring shame to the FATHER, but JESUS flips that around and uses it as an opportunity to bring glory to HIS Name! HALLELUJAH!!
