Topic: God Will Expose Them
Text: Job 12: 13, 22.
13 To God belong wisdom and power; counsel and understanding are His. 22 He reveals the deep things of darkness and brings deep shadows into light. Amen.
There may be several evil conspirators all around and the believer would not even know. Some are friends and others may be people we do not even know exist. Some just hate a thing or two about you while others do not even know why they can’t stand you.
Some just feel infuriated by your existence but do not care what becomes of you. While others take it to a whole new level to work against you both physically and spiritually till they have caused your downfall. And guess what? They celebrate that as an achievement!
Anytime any two or more of such people team up therefore, they plot a whole lot against you. They may even swear an oath never to relent till they have completely destroyed you.
The only clueless person in the picture so far, is you. With a clean heart and mind, you continue to honor God with your life and strive to do more. You try to love God with your all and then to love your neighbors as yourself. If the mercies of God do not reveal the evil desires of your conspirators, you may never know. That is why the Lord continues to expose them to us if only we will pay attention.
You see God, He is all knowing. Nothing is hidden from His bright eyes. Not even those things done under the cover of thick darkness. To Him belong wisdom and power. He reveals (through his word, dreams, visions, words of wisdom and knowledge, prophecies and discernment) the deep things of darkness and even brings deep shadows into light.
The other day Jeremiah gave a testimony, saying “Because the Lord revealed their plot to me, I knew it, for at that time he showed me what they were doing. I had been like a gentle lamb led to the slaughter; I did not realize that they had plotted against me, saying, “Let us destroy the tree and its fruit; let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name be remembered no more.” But you, Lord Almighty, who judge righteously and test the heart and mind, let me see your vengeance on them, for to you I have committed my cause.” (Jer 11: 18- 20).
Awake from your slumber and refuse to be as spiritually sluggish and ignorant as before. Pray right now concerning the many revelations the Lord has shown you about satan’s warfare on your life, family, ministry and career. Those plots must not be allowed to prevail. Declare every weapon fashioned against you null and void.
For surely the Lord will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with His feathers and under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. (Ps 91: 3-4).
May the Lord keep you from all harm— may He watch over your life; may the Lord watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore, IN JESUS NAME!
