For My people are fools; they have not known Me. They are foolish children, without understanding. They are skilled in doing evil, but they know not how to do good. (Jeremiah 4) They abandoned all the commandments of the Lord their God and have made for themselves idols. They devote themselves to doing evil in the sight of the Lord and provoking Him to anger. (2 Kings 17) The ox knows its owner, and the donkey its master’s manger, but My people do not understand (Isaiah 1).
I will go before thee, and make crooked places straight: I will break in pieces gates of brass, and cut bars of iron: I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am God. I have called thee by thy name though thou hast not known me. I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me. There is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things. (Isaiah 45)

Exercise your authority to tread on serpents and to cast out demons. You are the head and not the tail. Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. Exercise your holy boldness.
