Today is the day for you to begin a march on the deceptive tactics of the devil. Today is a good day to start! You must march onto the battlefield of your life and wage offensive warfare against Satan and his powers of darkness. You cannot be victorious just through defensive measures alone.
We know that Satan is defeated and the time will come when the whole world will know this. The Prophet Isaiah declared Isaiah 14:12, 15-16:
"How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble?"
In the end Satan loses and those who are on his side will lose with him. God is the winner, and those on His side will win with Him, The Apostle Paul declared, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit in Romans 8:37:
“In all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.”
You have the choice. God has given you a free will. He will not violate your will, although He will continually seek by His Holy Spirit to draw you to Himself.
Deuteronomy 11:26-28 defines your choices in this way:
"Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; A blessing if ye obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you this day: And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day."
Samson was deceived and taken captive by the enemy. Yet, in the final moments of his life he made a choice to repent and ask for God's strength to once again be manifested in his life. In his death, Samson conquered more of the enemy than he had in his lifetime. He made a choice and this time it was the right one!
This matter of choosing was clearly given to the people of Israel by Joshua when he said, “Choose you this day whom ye will serve!” in Joshua 24:15.
Elijah presented the same choice in his confrontation with the prophets of Baal in 1 Kings 18:21:
“How long halt ye between two opinions?”
God is putting that same challenges to you today:
-Choose you this day who you will serve.
-How long will you halt between two opinions?
The difference between victory and defeat is your choice. Will you make the right one today?
