You are an overcomer!

“And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony...” (Rev. 12:11 NASB)

A  battle in heaven

In revelation 12:7-11, there is the story of a war that took place in heaven between Michael and his angels and the devil and his angels. The devil and his forces were over-powered and hurled down to earth. The passage said God’s Angels overcame the devil by using two things: the Blood of the Lamb, and the word of their testimony. The same two powerful weapons are available for you to use today to defeat the enemy and his demons when they attack you: Jesus’ shed blood on the cross (the blood of the Lamb) and the Word of God spoken in faith (Word of testimony).

Making peace by the blood

“And through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross.”

The blood that speaks a better word

“And to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.” (Heb. 12:24 ESV)

The Word in your mouth

“But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim).” (Rom. 10:8 ESV)

The word of the cross is the power of God

“For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” (1Cor. 1:18 ESV)

Therefore…

“But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.” (Rom. 8:37 NASB)
