制伏 means to be in charge of the land, to have control. This verb is also used in Genesis chapter 1, when Adam was entrusted to be in control of the world.
God wanted to give the Israelites the land, but there is still a process of them going to get it. They had to have faith in order to obtain the land.
In this world, in our life, it may seem like we are in charge, but in reality, God is in control. We should use what God provides to go against satan. Be certain that I CAN obtain control and win Satan, because God is with me. 他与我同在
Ask God to help me know my enemy, ask God to help me obtain His promises, to ask and then receive.
What is satan doing in my life?
- Conceited? Too proud?
- Jealousy among friends!
- School work; stress and anxiety, undermining what I can truly do?
What I ask of God:
LORD, since you have brought me so far, can you carry me the rest of the way? Can I leave my stress and just focus, letting you do the 'hard' work? You can do all things. Help me to remember that my battle is against satan, not my friends, not my self competition.
LORD, would you help make me skinny and healthy? Is it wrong to want such a body? Would you help keep me humble and a light for you?
