An encouraging reminder for today:
The Lord is mighty – the Lord is good!
He has promised to deliver us from our enemy. There is much going on that we do not understand. The enemy is still fighting – he is still not willing to go down easily. We must be vigilant in our prayers. Do not give up – continue to pray and seek God’s wisdom.
We must pray for God to protect the innocent ones that do not fully understand what is happening. We must pray for a covering over our families – a hedge of protection around our loved ones.
The enemy prowls around like a lion – looking for a way to destroy us. (1st Peter 5:8)
Declare Isaiah 54:17 over you and your families:
“No weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you.”
Read Psalm 91 and declare it over your families:
“Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.’
Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.
If you say, ‘The Lord is my refuge,’ and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
‘Because he loves me,’ says the Lord, ‘I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”
Tell the enemy WHOSE you are – a child of God – your CREATOR – the One who knows how many hairs you have on your head. (Luke 12:7)
Listen for the Lord’s voice. It is crucial right now that you stay close to Him. He will guide your steps.
Get quiet before the Lord. Pray. Listen. Trust. Have faith.
God’s word is your weapon. Use it to bring your enemy down.
Remember who you are in God – because the enemy never forgets. He is always looking for a way to worm his wickedness into your life. Stand on God’s word.
We will get to the other side of this battle we are in – we will receive all that God has promised us. Until then – we stand on faith together. We pray. We fight. We ask for His wisdom and guidance. He will see us through all of it.
I want to encourage you that God has every single detail worked out. There is nothing He is going to leave unfinished in this fight. It may not make sense yet, but He has promised that everything our enemy has been doing will be brought into the light. We will know the truth. The lies will be exposed. Our victory is coming.
Trust and have faith in the One that loves you like no other – the One that wants you and all your loved ones to thrive and not suffer anymore. He will do it. Amen!
In His love,
Kathy
