The Goodnews - Under the Influence - Luke Edition 2024

Greetings, this is day 10 out of 24 of reading the Bible with Darren!

Day ten of twenty-four;- pretty chill day today.

Under the Influence;

Luke 10:17-20

To be free as God intended us to be, we must understand three things

There really are demons.

When Satan rebelled against God, he was cast out of heaven, and one-third of the angels fell with him. These fallen angels are called demons. Mark 5 tells about a man under the influence of a multitude of demons and how this bondage affected him.

Demons really do enter people.

Demons have one purpose: to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10).

The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. -John 10:10 NKJV

A Christian cannot be possessed by a demon in a sense of being owned, but a Christian can be under the control or influence of a demon.

Jesus really does cast demons out.

Jesus cast out demons when He ministered to people, and He has empowered us to do the same. He declares, “I have given you authority over all the power of the enemy” (Luke 10:19).
