Some years ago, my daughter returned from a Christian school sponsored music trip in which she was supposed to perform at a function. While on route to the event, in a bus full of students, a teacher prayed for the upcoming event. In particular, the teacher asked God to “bind Satan” so that the performance would go off without a hitch. Unfortunately, said binding did not prevent a disaster in which the sound system blew out, electricity went out in the building and did not turn back on in time for the students to perform. So, the students were loaded back on the bus, returning home after a long day and no performance.
