I was reading my Bible this morning when I stumbled across this verse in Luke –
I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. Luke 10:9
I have read Luke before but for some reason this verse never caught my attention like it did today. How awesome it is to know that with the power of Jesus I have authority to overcome the power of the enemy. I don’t ever have to listen to his lies and as long as I choose to not listen to him he can never harm me.
I can Trample on feelings like Rejection, Uncertainty and failure.
When the enemy tries to say things to me like “you are worthless”, “you are ugly”, “you are unimportant”, or “Nobody loves you” I have authority to trample all over those lies because the voice of Jesus tells me, “I am beautiful”, “I am worthy”, “I am important”, and “I am loved”
Pretty awesome huh? 🙂
Now it’s your turn
Trample on this –> “I am worthless” “I am ugly“ “I am not important, “Nobody loves me“
and instead KNOW this –>“I am beautiful” “I am worthy” “I am important”, “I am loved”
Because its true, you are beautiful, worthy, important and loved. Nobody can ever take that away from you.
Have a blessed day ,
What a joy to know we have this power. Thanks for your post today.

So very True T, Satan lies, he tells us we are worthless, but that is not what God tells us, below is some Scripture that reminds me how God sees us but I also want to leave you a few links that share very much the same as you shared, I’m sure that is no surprise, anyway let me confirm what you shared , yes we are God’s priceless Treasure, yes we are Royalty, Princes and Princesses of The King.
1 Peter 2:9-10 But ye are a chosen Generation, a Royal Priesthood, an Holy Nation, a Peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the Praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvellous light; Which in time past were not a people, but are now the People of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
