Disarmed

When he had disarmed the rulers and authorities, He made a public display of them, having triumphed over them through Him.

"Jesus' death and resurrection triumphed over and disarmed the rulers and authorities of the kingdom of darkness; Matthew 28:18 tells us "all authority ... in heaven and on earth" has been given to Christ. This means Satan is a defeated foe, and he has no authority over those who are in Christ. Affirming this truth is key to successfully combating the enemy's attempts to intimidate and hassle you."
