Spiritual Immunity
Do you, or I for that matter, fully realise the level of protection and security that we’ve been given by our heavenly Father?
He tells us, very clearly and forcefully almost, through Isaiah….
“….in that coming day no weapon turned against you will succeed. You will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the Lord; their vindication will come from me. I, the Lord, have spoken!” Isaiah 54:17 NLT
Never make the mistake that, because it’s in the Old Testament and before Jesus came, it isn’t relevant to the ‘battle’ scenario. It was the ‘serpent’ in the Garden of Eden that was initially successful over his battle in getting Eve to eat the forbidden fruit – and look at the harm that did!
Basically the Lord is saying to us that we have ‘Spiritual Immunity’ as ‘servants of the Lord’ and no weapon that’s aimed at us will be able to succeed.
The Battle Belongs to the Lord
When you’re faced with a battle, a battle instigated by satan – what sort of reaction does it bring in you? What sort of choice do you make – do you believe the lies and act accordingly; or do you rise up in your spirit and face the enemy? This is what David did when he faced up to Goliath the Philistine. And he declared very definitely that the battle belonged to the Lord and to no one else!
What Does the Word Say?
What does the Word tell us in connection with this sort of battle? The first Word that came to me was from 1 John 4:4 “…greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” (KJV). And believe me – John knew all about battles with the enemy!
Father’s Provision
Our Father has provided us with everything we need to do battle with in His name. Our part is to trust and walk in faith – and He will do His part and overcome our enemy. In fact in Psalm 110:1, David tells us that God has said He will make our enemies a footstool under our feet! What more can we possibly ask for?
Prepared
Be prepared when the enemy attacks and ALWAYS remember that NO weapon formed against you will prosper.
Hallelujah!!! 🙏❣️
PS. One of the best weapons I find is PRAISE – the enemy doesn’t hang around long when we praise and worship the King of Kings!! 💃🏻🙌👏
