Revelation chapter 12, verses 10 and 11.

And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying,

Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God

and the authority of His Christ have come.

For the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down,

who accuses them day and night before our God,

and they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb

and by the word of their testimony,

for they loved not their lives even unto death. This picture, it's really twofold.

So it's a picture of Satan, the devil being thrown down along with all of his demons are accuser,

and it's a picture of victory and triumph for all those who've trusted in the blood of Christ

and proclaim the gospel of Christ.

So you think about both of those pictures in our lives.

So one, the devil, the Satan, the accuser, who is constantly accusing us, causing guilt and shame and fear to mark even our relationships with God in our lives,

just reminding us of all that we have done wrong, reminding us of the shame of our sin,

causing us in an unhealthy way to think about that sin when Jesus,

his blood has covered over our sin. We've conquered, not because we've been great, we've conquered by

his blood, by the blood of the lamb. And there's coming a day when our accuser will be thrown down totally.

He will be silenced.

And we will stand, not on our own merit, but on the merit of the blood of Jesus.

Remember that today.
