Luke 10
After the Seventy returned from their missionary efforts they said -
"...again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name." (Luke 10:17)
Following which the Lord warned -
"Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven." (Luke 10:20)
In my mind, the Lord is warning against pride. Humility and meekness is the law of justification that allows one to receive the power of godliness.
