This is what I posted on face book to day: "The devil is working hard 24/7 to try to keep his forts and strongholds secure. It's time for unceasing intercessory prayer and bind the strongman and carry away all that he has stolen (especially souls) for greater is He that is within us!" But one person who replied to this feels the 'strong man' referred to in the following scriptures(Matthew 12:29, Mark 3:27/Luke 11:21) is not the devil but 'us'. But I feel..our flesh can be a "strong man', difficult to overcome but the enemy too is.....! To get his plunder out all our prayers can bind and restrict his activity and our God's able to drive him out of our lives...and destroy his works in peoples lives... .Matthew 12:29.."Or how can one enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house." Mark 3:27 "No one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house." Praise God one day satan will be bound forever!(Rev 20:10) Luke 11: 21 "When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are safe. 22 But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted and divides up the spoils." (How ever strong the enemy may think he is and think he can strip down a child of God, our God's much stronger! The enemy may be a "strongman" but a child of the Most High God for who his God is his strength, strong tower n refuge is for sure stronger than the strong man n strongholds of the enemy he faces!) What do you feel? who is the 'strong man'?
