The Scriptures record a very striking conversation Satan had with The LORD Jesus Christ when He came tempting Him in the wilderness…

“And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine!” Luke 4:5-7.

The question here is, who delivered it to Satan?

When Adam and eve obeyed Satan, they lost the dominion they were given over the world to Satan, because by their obedience they submitted.

Romans 6 tells us,

“Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?” Romans 6:16.

Simply put, by spiritual law, “You serve whom you obey!” — and not the other way round, like we think it to be!

The same thing happened to Judas. He became a servant to the masters he obeyed — did they bidding — and lost his apostleship.

As we regain Thrones and Spheres of this world by our warfare against principalities, powers and rulers of darkness… bear in mind, the enemy is always fighting to retake conquered grounds.

One way this happens is by setting cunning traps. These traps are schemes designed to make you obey the enemy, so that these Thrones and Conquered Grounds, can be “delivered again into his hands.”

The LORD Jesus Christ recognizing the victories The Philadelphia Church were gaining, and warned them…

“Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.” Revelation 3:11 .

The Apostle Paul also warned…

“Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.” 1 Corinthians 10:12.

The Scripture speaks about a beast that was wounded to death, yet somehow was healed.

“And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.” Revelation 13:3.

This speaks of a beast who was fought in time past, almost conquered, yet somehow managed to regain the territory he once lost.

The Scripture shows that when this beast re-emerged on the scene, it was commissioned by the dragon to make war against the Saints — a bid to contend and take back grounds already conquered by the Saints.

“And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.” Revelation 13:7.

We are in very significant times in The Seasons of The Kingdom; and there are demonic commissioning going on, as the enemy is hellbent on taking back conquered territories.

We must hold fast the admonition of The LORD Jesus Christ to the Philadelphian Church.

“Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.” Revelation 3:11.
