Matthew 12:29 For who is powerful enough to enter the house of a strong man like Satan and plunder his goods? Only someone even stronger–someone who could tie him up and then plunder his house.

When Adam sinned, Adam gave his power, dominion, and all the promises God had for us to Satan. Satan became the ruler of this world. Through the sacrifice of Jesus, Jesus returned our authority, dominion, and all of God’s promises back to us (Colossians 2:15). For those in Christ, we now have our authority in this earth and we have the ability to bring heaven to earth. 

Although we’ve received our authority, there are still a few areas that have the appearance of being under the control of the enemy. Jesus shows us how to handle the areas where Satan seems to be dominate. Using our greatest weapon, our mouths, we have the ability to bind Satan’s appearance of dominance. Things that look dark, dismal, and disgusting, we have the ability to shine the light of God in that particular area and obtain what He promised for us.

For instance, if a person’s marriage seems to be filled with arguments, chaos, and anger that person has the ability to bind Satan’s activities within that marriage and cause the glory of God to shine bright. They can declare their marriage has peace, joy, and tranquility. Because we have our authority through Jesus, peace, joy, and tranquility has to take place within that person’s marriage. 

Whatever is not looking heavenly in your life, bind the strong man, and declare the perfect will of God in that area.
