The bible talks about the “accuser” who points the finger at you and me to accuse us before God. This can sometimes feel jarring and overwhelming. But I have great news for you today – his accusations against you are without merit – essentially, no legal basis or ground exists for his claims. How can that be true, you might ask? Well, let’s see what the bible says. 

First, from the book of Colossians, we understand that while we were sinners, God made us alive in Christ. He did not just stop there; He also forgave us all our sins. Now here is the catch – in addition to forgiving our sins, He also cancelled and took away the charge of the legal indebtedness that stood against us and condemned us. He nailed it all to the cross! 

Do you understand what that means? On that cross, Jesus Christ paid the price with His blood and cancelled the legal charge that stood against you – therefore, no further claim can be made. 

Now, to take this one step further, the book of Romans reminds us that no one can bring a charge against those who God has chosen (which is you and I) because it is God who justifies. Who then is the one who condemns us? No one! Because it is Christ Jesus who died for us, and even more than that, He was raised to life and is now seated at the right hand of God, interceding for us. 

One extra piece of information you need to know is what Isaiah 54:17 says – it says that no weapon formed against you shall prosper, and “you” will silence every voice raised up to “accuse you.” This is your benefit, and your vindication comes from the Lord!

So, what do you do? When the accuser comes after you (which might be very often), you need to silence him by saying clearly that his accusations are without merit and have no legal ground!

You must remember that your enemy is relentless in his accusations. You would have to be even more relentless in proclaiming the truth to counter his deceits. You do this by staying ready with the word of God, the consciousness of the power of the word, and the power you carry through His Spirit. 

So, do not forget – the case against you is without merit because Jesus paid the price. Act on that information and continue to walk in victory!
