Slay That Dragon!
by PamFord Davis In self-condemnation, do you beat yourself up mentally for failing the LORD or others? I tend to be far more judgmental of myself than towards others. "Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1 NAS)." The blood of the Lamb has the power to slay our accuser, the great dragon! That power is the word of testimony that I proclaim "And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him. Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, 'Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, he who accuses them before our God day and night. And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even when faced with death. For this reason, rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has only a short time (Revelation 12:9-12 NAS)."
