HIS WEAPONS DON'T WORK


IN THE BEGINNING…THE WORD
DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY, MARCH 7, 2012
HIS WEAPONS DON’T WORK
No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.  Isaiah 54:17

Jesus will go to battle against our enemy, Satan.  He will surely destroy every satanic force which is positioned to destroy the church, and her faith.   Satan’s weapons, though they are great, don’t work.  Like Goliath opposing David, Satan is defeated. Have you ever had Satan send his lies out against you—creating strife, division, confusion and every evil work?  Have you ever had to simply stand still in the PEACE that passeth understanding until the Lord fights your battle? Have you ever seen Satan’s work turn to stone and stubble, or burn right before your eyes?  Have you ever seen God turn Satan’s schemes around: what Satan meant for evil God meant for good.   Yes, Satan is busy and getting a lot of press, but every weapon that he forms against us will fail, while we continue to flourish in Zion.  And all those tongues, those haters of God, that boldly rise up against us in judgment, we see that they are already condemned--for this is the servant of the Lord’s birthright because our life is hid in Christ and His righteousness is seen in us.
Today, God is for us!
