“Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.” Revelation 12:10-11 (NKJV)
How will we overcome the devil, who was already defeated by Jesus? 2 Timothy 1:6-7(NKJV)
By the Blood of the Lamb: 1 John 1:5-7(NKJV)
The Blood of the Lamb of God which is Jesus Christ’s blood, cleanses us from all sins. This we should have done by accepting, that we all are born in sin and we need to get cleansed. This will keep the devil off from you and he cannot touch you, because you are protected. If you say you are not a sinner, then you will make God a liar but He is not.
By the word of our testimony: Hebrews 2:1-4(NKJV)
We should have the experiential life of the Word we are reading. Just reading and discussing Bible verses or just quoting them and sending them to others is not good enough; but should live your live according to what the word says to you and bring forth fruits for the Kingdom of God. Any miracles have you experienced or any souls have you won for the Lord? These are the things which will testify for our lives.
By not loving our lives to the death: Matthew 10:27-31(NKJV)
We should stand and testify for the Lord Jesus to the extent as to not be afraid of our death. This is what all disciples of Jesus did for a long time. Nowadays I see believers quote the above verse cutting off this part, which says we should be ready even to die for our testimony. We are supposed to give the true gospel, even all reject you or threaten to kill you. God’s protection is upon us only when we are doing our Father’s Will: the hairs on our heads are numbered and we are more valuable than many sparrows. I would like to add that the whole heaven will back us up, if we do God’s Will in our lives.
