I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today is from the book of Isaiah 41:12, “Though you search for your enemies, you will not find them. Those who wage war against you will be as nothing at all.”
From the above context we understand that our God will have compassion upon us and drive out all our enemies. God speaks with tenderness saying fear not, for I am with Thee, I will strengthen thee and help thee in the time of need. I will uphold thee with that righteous right hand which is full of righteousness, giving forth rewards to those who do good, and punishments to those who disobey God.
There are many people who strive against God’s people that seek their own hurt. God’s people should not render evil for evil, but wait, for God’s time. Often we find, it is the worm Jacob, so little, so weak, so despised, and trampled on, by everybody. God’s people are like worms. God’s people are often considered as worms, by their enemies, haughty thoughts. But the Lord will help them, for He is their Redeemer. The Lord will make God’s children as threshing instrument, new and having spikes, fit for use.
Our enemies may be large in number, but it would be impossible to find them when you search for them, for they would cease to exist. They shall be so totally consumed that although you search for them, you shall not be able to find them. They will never harm you again as in the past, for the Lord, has redeemed you from bondage and slavery. The Israelites were under bondage in Egypt for nearly 430 years. They were treated like worms by the cruel taskmasters. But the time came when God sent Moses to liberate his people from oppression. When they left Egypt they had to pass through the Red Sea and the Egyptian army was chasing them from behind. They were caught up between the Red Sea and the Egyptian army. They cried out to the God of Israel. God heard their cry and rescued them from their enemies.
The destruction of Chariots in the deep sea, was an extraordinary miracle a supernatural one. The Egyptians were scared of the Israelites for they feared that the God of Israel was fighting for his people. Pharaoh and his men knew very well that they could not with stand the power of the God of Israel. So they decided to escape from the Israelites, but God covered the sea with the waters and destroyed the Egyptian army. Though the Israelites searched for them they could not find them anywhere.
Similarly, you might have faced many tribulations in your life. Bad, cruel and unkind and dangerous, people might have come against you and your children. They would have tried to manipulate you into all kinds of evil plans. But God whom you believed would have saved you from their wretched hands in a wonderful way. Hallelujah.! From this day onwards, God’s favour will descend upon you. People who troubled you will see directly how God intervenes in your life to save you from their wicked hands. For our God is good all the time. The Bible says, though we are faithless yet He remains faithful for he cannot disown himself.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father We thank You for this blessed day. Lord, You have saved our lives from treacherous people. So we thank You. You intervened directly into our problems and rescued us from our foes. Help us to remain grateful to You throughout our lives. Thank You for performing supernatural miracles to save us. Our Life is in your hands. Help us to live the way You want us to be.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
