Hi friends,
As we view eternity at a closer range, I will want to
remind you friends that it is high time we rise up to possess the gates of our
enemies.
May be you have been so relaxed and unperturbed about
too many issues of life.
In the book
of Judges 16:2-4, the Bible records the account of Samson, who made a trip to a
foreign land and only for his enemies to compass him and lay in ambush waiting
for him.
And it was told the Gazites, saying, Samson is come hither.
And they compassed him in, and laid wait for him all night
in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night,
saying,
In the morning, when
it is day, we shall kill him. And Samson
lay till midnight, and arose at midnight, and took the doors
of the gate of the city, and the two posts, and went away
with
them, bar and all, and put them upon his shoulders, and carried
them up to the top of
an hill that is before Hebron.
It is possible that every effort you have made at
getting something better out of life has always being work done in futility and
all you have decided to do is to resolve to fate. I want remind you that there
are enemies at the gates who have built spiritual strongholds against your life
and destiny that you must uproot.
May I also
remind you that in this same way the devil- your arch enemy is also ways
compassing you and laying ambushes against you and your God ordained destiny
even when you are unaware.
Little
wonder, we are enjoined further in the scriptures on the need to be sober and
vigilant because, the enemy of our salvation roams about seeking for whom a may
destroy, whom we must resist steadfastly.
Samson by
the enablement of the Holy Spirit, did something that was quite amazing. He
rose up at their own unguided hours to possess the gates of his enemies.
He didn’t just
stop there, he uprooted it with the bar and all that can make the gate to be
replaced.
The devil
does not pity anyone not even you. His threefold mission is to kill, steal and
destroy. His motto is total destruction and a fight to finish. The battle you
fight halfway today will go and re-enforce against you in the future.
Ask the Lord
to anoint you for total and complete victory against every battle as you
journey on this high way.
It is high
time you rise up to the challenge against you and everything called God in your
life. You cannot afford to die cheaply in the hands of your enemies. You are
too defended to be a victim. You are too equipped to be a prey.
Your friend and
fellow pilgrim in the Kingdom race,
Pastor Janet
