The Fall and Defeat of Satan
Scripture exploration on Luke
“The seventy-two returned with joy and said, "Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name." He replied, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you." ... "And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony."”
Temptation and evil can make life feel like an exhausting battle. But Scripture reminds us that Christ has already won the ultimate victory through His cross and resurrection. You do not have to live in fear of darkness or defeat. God’s grace and love are far stronger than anything fighting against you.
