ISAIAH 54:17 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. 

The enemy is always scheming how he can tear us down. He is devising a weapon to destroy us. Each one of us has a different weapon that he uses against us because he knows our weaknesses. However, God says those weapons will not prosper.

It is our heritage. It is part of our bloodline as children of God.  We are born of the Spirit, we have Jesus’ blood, and we have the same rights to inherit things of God. Because Jesus overcame Satan and took the keys of death, hell and the grave from him, he cannot prevail against us unless we allow it.

What gives the enemy and his weapons power? It is the words that come out of our mouths. We start letting fear and anxiety take over and then we start talking negatively. This gives the enemy power, the things we choose to focus on, in this case, the negative things become bigger to us. If we can keep our God focus, He will be bigger to us. Because we know our God has our back. The enemy’s schemes will seem smaller and will not prosper against us.

We have power over the enemy because he is under our feet.  When I think about Satan being under our feet, I think about a little lady whom I was privileged to know.  She had such spunk, she took a black marker and wrote on the bottom of her shoe. ‘Devil, I am walking all over you.’  I learned so much from her. She suffered many things in her lifetime.  But she was always full of joy.  When she was buried, she had a golden fork in her hand. Because she wanted to remind everyone that it was not the end, but the best was yet to come.

The next time the enemy tries to attack, remind him that you are of the bloodline of Christ and no weapon he can create with prosper.

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS
