Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name." And He said to them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from Heaven. Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you." Luke 10:17-19
Jesus wasn't talking about bugs and snakes, He was speaking of all the power of demonic spirits, principalities, powers, rulers, and authorities! Jesus said, "You (disciples) will cast out demons in My name!"
Satan is the most overrated character in the Bible being exalted and portrayed as a fearful villain who is a liar and deceiver! His bark is definitely worse than his bite but don't ever turn your back on him because he has deceived millions. Some of the greatest men of God have been brought down by his schemes.
Adam, Samson, King Saul, King David, and Peter to name a few, and many more have been deceived and brought down by his lies. Satan is a hunter and a trapper setting snares for the unsuspecting soul who is not on the alert for one of his schemes.
Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. I Peter 5:8,9
