The Lord Exposes the Wicked who Attack Christians
Psalm 120:1-2 says: "I call on the Lord in my distress, and he
answers me. Save me O Lord, from lying lips and from deceitful
tongues."
Are you being attacked by someone? Has the devil been trying to
destroy you?
This happens a lot in the lives of Christians. They are attacked
daily by someone or something. We as Christians know when we are
being attacked. It is from the devil, and his plan is to try to
destroy Christians and also people who are not Christians. The good
and awesome news is the Lord will expose those who are wicked and
are trying to destroy you. Hebrews 4:12 says: "For the word of God
is full of living power. It is sharper than the sharpest knife,
cutting deep into our innermost thoughts and desires. It exposes us
for what we really are."
Psalm 119:78 says: "Bring disgrace upon the arrogant people who lied
about me; meanwhile, I will concentrate on your commandments."
God is the answer to our victory, and God's word is the answer to
win our victory. All we have to do is press forward to what we know
is right, and what we know the Lord wants us to do, and Jesus will
meet us in our needs.
What are some of the things that you are in need of? I know that my
husband and I are in need of something that is totally out of our
hands, and the only way for us to win our victory over it is by
claiming God's word over it and by praying daily and believing that
God's will shall be done.
Sometimes Christians are attacked by someone, and we get so angry
that it leaves bitterness in us; and that is an opportunity for the
devil to destroy that Christian. We have to be careful when we are
being attacked by someone, because naturally we will become angry
when we are being attacked, and it can cost us badly. But we have to
make sure we are angry at the right thing, and that's the devil--not
the person, but the devil. When we are angry at the person, that is
when bitterness builds up in us and can destroy us. But, when we are
angry instead at what has a hold on the person, that is a "good"
angry.
We also as Christians have to remember when we are in God's will
Jesus well not let us lose our battles if we let him have our
problems. What is your battle? Are you battling with cancer or with
some kind of illness; are you battling with paying your bills each
month, or are you battling with something that the devil is trying
to take away from you that the Lord gave you? How you win victory
over your battles is by finding something about it from God in his
Word, the Bible, and claiming it in Jesus' name. Then it's yours;
consider it done! But, we have to remember that often God might have
something better for us. For example, if you are sick and you find
out your illness is not curable, then you would go to Jesus, who is
the healer of all sickness and can heal any kind of sickness that no
man can treat. But, you pray and pray and your body keeps getting
sicker, and finally the Lord takes you. It was not that your prayer
was not answered; it was the Lord had something better for you, and
that is to meet him face to face in Heaven. What would you rather
have, your life here or be face to face with Jesus in Heaven?
When you are being attacked by someone, remember God will expose
that person for who they are. Jesus will not let anything harm his
children. The devil is out to destroy God's children, especially the
ones who hold a big calling on their lives.
But, praise God, as long as we serve our Saviour Jesus Christ and
stay in his Word and in prayer daily, the devil cannot harm us.
God's word is powerful, and God does answer prayers.
The wicked will be exposed, and you will be restored with blessing.
Psalm 119:71 says: "The suffering you sent was good for me, for it
taught me to pay attention to your principles." (God's word)
Everything we go through in life, every battle, every struggle,
Jesus will only use it to teach us and to make us stronger then we
were before. Jesus will never allow it to destroy us, because he is
a God of love and mercy.
Psalm 119:153 says: "Look upon my suffering and deliver me,
for I have not forgotten your laws."
As long as you don't forget God's laws, He will not forget you, and
he will deliver you out of the hands of the wicked, so all you have
to do is praise God because you are delivered from the hands of the
wicked!
Pray and claim the whole chapter of Psalm 35 over the situation that
you are in. Pray that God will enact Psalm 35 on the person who is
trying to destroy you or take away from you. It's time for you to
win your victory and to win what the devil is trying to take away
from you--or to win back what the devil has taken away from you.
Don't sit back any more and do nothing; get out your Bible and read
it and study it and claim God's word over your situation. Be
encouraged by God's word daily, and you will see things change in
your life that you have never seen before.
Jesus loves you and wants you to have victory over your trials, but
the only way to victory is through Jesus!
God Bless you, and may God bring you out of your troubles and shower
you with his blessings.....
