Rescued Out of Darkness
Ephesians 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Revelations 12:7 And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, 8 but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. 9 So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. 10 Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
Revelations 19 11 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. 12 His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself. 13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.
Satan, our adversary, the 'thief' who comes to kill, steal, and destroy. He comes to steal my joy, my health, my family, my relationships, my vision, my wallet, my life, He comes to fill our hearts with lies and deception to destroy us Acts 5:3; he tempts us 1 Corinthians 7:5; he takes advantage of us 2 Corinthians 2:11; he comes as a deceptive angel of light 11:14; he hinders us 2 Thessalonians 2:18; he represents every negative thing that comes to destroy us. And his primary and most abhorrent task is to destroy my relationship with God, Who he hates, loathes and despises.
The beautiful part of this real life story is he and his angels have no power over me unless I relinquish it to him. We have a God that is greater than all his kingdom combined and His name is Emmanuel, 'God with us', Jesus Christ, The Messiah. And there is a real ending to this real life love story, our King, our Savior, is coming to rescue His bride, she has been waiting with oil in her lamp, He comes riding in on a beautiful white horse to SAVE HER, to take her back to His kingdom to live with Him forever and ever. And we are His bride. The END
Now that's a Love Story with a happy ending!
