Many church people believe we will exercise our spiritual authority sometime in the Millennium. The trouble is that believers relegate everything to the future! Yet the average believer has more faith in Satan's authority and power than in God's! All that Jesus did, He did for you and me. Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.' This is why Satan doesn't have the right to rule or dominate Christians.
