WhO's tHe BoSS?


Here's a dichotomy that might blow your mind and change your life!
My favorite Psalm in the world starts like this.

“The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.” Psalms 24:1 KJV

But then later in scripture, this pops up: 

“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” 2 Corinthians 4:3-4 KJV

So wait! Everything in the world belongs to God but the adversary is the "God of this world"

Don't worry! This isn't confusing at all. It, along with other supporting passages simply teaches us that because of sin, man was undone and the enemy was given authority in the earth but then.......

“Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them.” Job 1:6 KJV

So Satan needs to present himself before the Lord to ask for stuff? Interesting. And then drink this in....

“Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Luke 10:19 KJV

What I'm drinking in is the power can only be given by the one that actually has it. The enemy in your life has authority but the ultimate power rests with the Creator who still has the final say in everything that happens in your life and in your world. Upon Him is where your worship belongs. Have a blessed day! 

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

Romans 12:1-2 KJV
