A Word

Behold, I have given you authority to tread on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will harm you.

Luke 10:19BSB

What it means

The authority belongs to Jesus and is given, not earned. It is real, and it is over the enemy. Yet He immediately redirects their joy from power to belonging.

The seventy-two return rejoicing that demons submit to them in His name. Jesus affirms it, then tells them where their deeper joy should rest.

Where it addresses you

  • You feel powerless against something dark.

  • You are tempted to make spiritual power the center of your faith.
