No Weapon Shall Prevail Against Me
This week’s focus is on declarations of a child of God!
Declaration 1: NO MAN SHALL STAND AGAINST ME!
We are protected by the backup of the heavenly army!
In the previous message we read in Psalm 107:2 (AMPC);
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He has delivered from the hand of the adversary,
The redeemed of the Lord not only needs to think about it or meditate on it but need to verbalise it! They have to speak it out and declare it. Declarations will take us forward in our Christian life. Those who believe should open their mouths and declare!
Declaration 2: NO WEAPON SHALL PREVAIL AGAINST ME!
Believe in it and it will be true in your life.
Romans 10:9 emphasises the importance of confessing with the mouth. It says;
9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Just like we tell our family members, we need to verbally tell God how much we love Him. Take a look at Peter, who denied Jesus three times, Jesus asked Peter if he loves Jesus 3 times and he said ‘yes’ all the 3 times. Even though God knows inside our hearts, we need to say it aloud!
There is no point in keeping it all inside be it to God or to a regular person or a child,
Isaiah 54:17 says, no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and this is their vindication from me,” declares the Lord.
Fear of weapons is the second type of fear we face after fear of enemies. Sometimes we face an internal fear that others are against us. This is the fear of man. The fear of weapons is that we are terrified that people are plotting against us. We can overcome this using Isaiah 54:17. It is clearly written and we should declare that “NO WEAPON FORGED AGAINST ME WILL PREVAIL!”
Take the case of David and Goliath in 1 Samuel 17 onwards. David was a young boy who had no prior military training who goes up against Goliath, the giant warrior. While reading the scriptural portion we see the depiction of Goliath from his height to his scary demeanour. Goliath was without any doubt, a terrifying sight! In his hands were weapons that no one else is Israel could wield. But ultimately it was God who was in control of David. Even though David’s weapons were just a sling and a rock, God was on his side. Though David was ridiculed for his choice of weaponry, none of the weapons that took years to be made stood a chance against David who was under God’s protection. Not only was David left unharmed but Goliath ended up being beheaded by his own weapon.
Similarly, in our lives there might be people wanting to see our downfall. They might be planning and plotting against us with other people in groups. But we need to always remember as children of God, the weapons our enemies make to use against us will be the cause of their own downfall!
People might cause issues, file a case in the Supreme Court but we always need to remember that there is no need to fear man because he will also pass. There is no need to fear the Supreme Court or human courts because there is a court with even more authority - the heavenly court! This is the headquarters which will take care of all our problems for us because God will take care of His children.
The devil does not have any weapons with him but he has schemes and ploys to work against us.
2 Corinthians 2:11 says, in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.
In any circumstance, we should be able to discern the scheme of Satan in our lives. This should not bring us down for that is the aim of Satan - our downfall.
It is written in Ephesians 6:16 to wear the Armour of God. This is very important for us as His children to use God’s gifts which are free for us and adorn ourselves with it!
In the current times, the weapons used may not be one that causes physical harm but harmful for us in other ways. For instance, it may be a case filed against you or a social media movement against you. This will turn crowds of people to turn against you and become your enemy.
God has given us plenty of weapons to use but most of the time we don’t use His weapons.
Just like how an elephant keeps walking straight ahead without glancing down at the crowds of dogs barking and chasing the elephant, we also need to learn to look forward and keep our eyes on God regardless of the circumstances!
