Hello warrior of the Lord!
I want us to declare this from our depths: “I WILL NOT BE MOVED!” Say it again with me: “I WILL NOT BE MOVED!”
Do you know that Satan is no challenge for you because you belong to the Most High God?
The Scripture declares in Psalm 118:6-9,
• “The LORD is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me? The LORD is for me among those who help me…It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.”
I encourage you to TRUST IN GOD! Call upon His Name. Trusting God means to lean on, to feel safe, to depend on.
We have all seen elderly people that are walking with the aid of a walker. They are leaning on that walker; they are depending on that walker; it makes them feel safe. This is how we are to depend on God. So when the battle is raging against you, declare this from Isaiah 54:17,
• NO WEAPON formed against me will succeed! I will silence every voice raised up to accuse me. These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the LORD; their vindication will come from Me. I, the LORD have spoken.
Take this Scripture and speak it out loud over your life today! Declare that you can do all things through Christ Who strengthens you. When you are weak, then you are strong (in His strength).
See, we have a covenant with Almighty God. This covenant is a solemn promise pledge or agreement that God will carry out for us through Jesus Christ. Psalm 89:34-35 says,
• “My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of My lips. Once have I sworn by My holiness that I will not lie.”
God is not a liar and He will do exactly what He says He will do concerning you. This is why I exhort you with every fiber of my being to diligently study God’s Word to find out what it is that God has done for you and will do for you. Meditate on every Scripture that refers to God’s covenant until your mind and spirit become saturated with it. Before long, you will not help but be able to relate to God on the basis of your covenant. Your vocabulary will change and you will begin praying and receiving answers from heaven because of your understanding of your covenant rights. Problems that once threatened to overwhelm you will seem small. Remember this family: God is stronger than Satan. Let me give you an example from Ezekiel 28:12-15, 17
• “You (Lucifer) were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every precious stone was your covering…You were the anointed cherub who covers; I established you; You were on the holy mountain of God; You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones. You were perfect in all your ways from the day you were created TILL INIQUITY WAS FOUND IN YOU…Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor; I cast you to the ground…”
Isaiah 14:16-17 concludes with these words,
• “…Those who see you will gaze at you and consider you saying: Is this the man who made the earth tremble, who shook kingdoms, who made the world as a wilderness…?”
Satan has been utterly defeated by Jesus. Colossians 3:15 says,
• Having disarmed principalaties and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.
I am compelled by God to exhort you to make sure you are abiding in Jesus – live in Him; live in His Word. He will always lead you into triumph. Psalm 91:1-3 says,
• “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress; My God in Him I will trust.’ Surely, He WILL deliver you from the snare of the fowler…
Meditate on Psalm 91 and receive it for yourself. It is chock full of promises for your protection and safety from all the fiery darts of the enemy (see Ephesians 6:10-18).
Claim God’s Word from Psalm 63:8 that says,
• My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.
Our God is the Most High God – He is El Elyon in the Hebrew language, which means, the highest supremacy; the Extremely-Exalted Sovereign High God. Psalm 57:2 says,
• I will cry to the Most High…
He is the true and living God and there is no other (Jeremiah 10:10, Isaiah 45:5, John 14:6, Deuteronomy 32:29, and Exodus 8:10, just to name a few).
Standing strong in the Lord,
