In order to make Satan kneel, you mustn’t be afraid. Satan’s level is that of a preschooler. That’s why God doesn’t even fight with him. So, when you begin to feel afraid, don’t cater to Satan by letting that fear get to you. Then, what must you do?
1. The Mystery of the Throne You must begin your spiritual journey. Within your thoughts of fear, the blessings of God’s throne will be established. God’s greatest interests lay in the extreme crises of His children. When Stephen was stoned to death, Jesus stood at the right hand of God. When Apostle John thought that he would die on Patmos, God showed his prayers being placed in a golden censer and the angels being mobilized. This means that you shouldn’t be afraid.
2. Treasures and World Travel God has prepared a storehouse full of treasure. This treasure is none other than His children who have been saved. With this mystery, you can go around the world on a spiritual journey.
There is no need to fear or cater to Satan. You simply need to enjoy your authority. By doing so, you’ll accumulate spiritual strength that will make Satan kneel. Then one day, you’ll be fine wherever you are and whatever you face.
[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, by enjoying the mystery of the throne and authority, may I overcome fear and accumulate spiritual strength. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
