Your Lord Will Fight For You
“And in the morning watch the Lord in the pillar of fire and of cloud looked down on the Egyptian forces and threw the Egyptian forces into a panic, clogging their chariot wheels so that they drove heavily. And the Egyptians said, “Let us flee from before Israel, for the Lord fights for them against the Egyptians.” –Exodus 14:24-25 (ESV)
Never doubt that your Lord will fight for you. Right now, at this very moment He is looking down on your enemies and preparing to throw them into a panic just like he threw the Egyptians into a panic when they were chasing the Children of Israel. The Egyptians thought they had the Israelite’s backed into a corner, but then they saw the pillar of fire and the cloud and remembered how the Israelite’s God fights for them.
Do not your enemies know the same?
Your Lord Will Fight For You
Where-ever you go today, remember that your enemies clearly see God’s pillar of fire and cloud with you. They see His favor on you. They sense that the authority you have is not your own, but from something greater than you. They see God’s hand of protection upon you. They bow to the fact that they cannot touch you because they have already felt the effects of your God’s wrath when trying to attack you. (They may never give you the satisfaction of knowing this, but trust me your God has already “clogged their wheels” on your behalf.)
So relax today in the confidence that the battle you are in is not yours to fight. It is the Lord’s.
Your Lord Will Fight For You
The Lord will cause your enemies to hang on their own gallows (Esther 7:9), He will make your enemies your footstool (Acts 2:35, Luke 20:43), and He will make a show openly of your triumph (Colossians 2:15).
LET’S PRAY
Precious Powerful God of heaven and earth, will you go before my dear reader today? Will you sweep the path before them and remove any spiritual land mines that might have been placed by the enemy? Would you allow their footsteps to thunder in the spirit world serving notice that your heir has just entered? Show yourself strong today! Cause my readers enemies to choke on their own words. Glue their enemy’s mouths shut, and thwart every evil action they may planned. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
