The greatest of all our gifts is love. Without love we are merely sounding cymbals. Clanging gongs! See 1 Corinthians 13:13. Love is the greatest force in heaven and in earth. Because God is love and has shed abroad in the believer's heart the love that exist in His very own heart. It is by the exercise of this love that we defeat all the evil of this world and its master. As we love God, our Father, as Christ does. And love others as we love ourselves, we become winners; undefeatable spiritual warriors.
Spiritual warfare is a necessary reality in the life of all the redeemed in Christ. satan has been for sure defeated by Jesus' sacrifice. But, at the present time neither he nor the whole passel of his cronies are silent and inactive. Therefore, if it is written in God's word pursue it with the very passion of heaven until the promised results are established. You have been given the greatest gift that heaven has to offer, which is the very Spirit of Love. Through Christ God defected satan and forever sealed his doom. Then He graciously invited all who will, to sit with Christ in the heavenly places and share in that victory. See Ephesians 1:20; 2:6; 3:10.
When this is the stance of our life, we move into the fullness of who we have become in Jesus. This love is the very same love by which He fulfilled the law and the prophets. See Matthew 7:12; 22:40, Galatians 5:14, Romans 13:18; 10:4, Act 3:18 Luke 22:37. And then set us free to be as He is in this world. 1 John 4:17. It is this restoration of who God created us to be that satan fears and is so adamantly opposed to. In this place no weapon he forms or anything he says against us can prosper, because God Himself will condemn him. Isaiah 54:17. Why is this so? It is so because when we fail to exercise the use of God's greater power and authority over him, he is enabled to use his greatest power against us. Remember satan is a defeated foe whom God has given us authority over all of his power. Luke 10:19. However, we must take our place in His kingdom and live out this promise.
Satans greatest weapon against the child of God is to convince us that he has more power than we do in Christ. Or we could say more power than Christ in us. While satan and all his minions are thoroughly and eternally defeated they fight on. And you and I are the targets of their arrows of evil intentions. Therefore, just as these principalities and powers of evil fight for his kingdom to rule; we must fight for the kingdom of our God to rule here as it does in heaven. We accomplish this by way of our becoming spiritual godly lights in the darkness of this world. Lights set a blaze by the Spirit of God, which neither man nor demon can extinguish. Satan is defeated but far from inactive. God's people are winners, but far from living out the full reality of our victory in Christ. If you as a victorious conqueror (and this is who God says you are) fail to go forth and conquer evil in the authority of Jesus name; satan will still hold you captive to destruction and defeat. See Romans 8:37. Never forget that winners actively pursue the prize set before them. Until at last they possess all of the benefits of that prize.
Go now and knock down those walls that stand between you and all the benefits of your redemption in Christ. It is written: As Jesus is so are you in this world. We are the throbbing pain in satan's evil heart. When we live up to whom God created and calls us to be. We are actually not enlisted to defeat satan. Christ did that. We are to take our place as lights through which Jesus shines as He Himself dispels the darkness of evil which fills this world. It is Jesus who enforces and ensures our victory and satan's defeat.

May all that is allowed in heaven fill your life each day. And may all that is not allowed there be forbidden in your life. See Matthew 16:19; 18:19.

Love big, stay strong in the Lord and let the power of His might forever be your stronghold of safety.
