Deuteronomy 28:7
« The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways. »
MEDITATION:
Some people think that Jesus and the devil are always confronting and fighting each other. But when I read my Bible, I don’t see fights between the two. What I see is the devil having to flee whenever he encounters Jesus!
For exemple, let us consider the demoniac from the country of the Gadarenes in Luke 8:26-39. The demons in the man begged Jesus not to torment them or send them into the abyss, but to let them enter in a herd of swine nearby.
We see that neither the devil nor his demons can stand before Jesus. All it took was just one word from Jesus, and the entire legion of demons had to come out of the man and flee into the swine.
As children of God, we exude a spiritual fragrance which evil spirits can detect and which causes them to tremble. It is the life of Jesus inside us.
And He who is in us is greater than he who is in the world (see 1 John 4:4). That is why no curse, spell, accusation, scandal or destruction planned against us can succeed.
Our enemies may come against us one way, but the Lord will confuse them and cause them to flee before us seven ways!
Beloved, Jesus’ enemies were united and had “victory” over Him. But because He triumphed over them through the cross and rose again, today, our enemies will be scattered and we will have victory over them!
PRAYER:
Lord our God, give us to see our enemies flee before us, because of the presence of Jesus in us.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray.
Amen.
