Those Who Contend Against The Church...
Dear God,

Your church, even as Israel has experienced, has those who are incensed against us. But You say: “Fear not! I am with you.” The church rests in Your hands and does good. In the doing of good, there are those who are infuriated and have the audacity to contend against the work and the workers.

There are those who are so set on destruction that they are incensed that good is being done. They are vicious in defense of their own realm and declare anyone who is not of a like mind to be weak. And, yet, You say that “...I, the LORD your God, hold your right hand.” There is nothing that the church’s enemy can be jubilant about because their enemy is God.

Jubilation is in the Body of Christ because, as we turn around to seek after our enemy, he is suddenly no more. Shame has consumed him. He is nothing at all. Even his thoughts and plans have devoured him. The Father of all Creation always prevails, as does His church, when she is about doing good.

Isaiah 41:10-13

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you. I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Behold, all who are incensed against you shall be put to shame and confounded; those who strive against you shall be as nothing and shall perish.

You shall seek those who contend with you but you shall not find them; those who war against you shall be as nothing at all.

For I, the LORD your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, “Fear not, I am the one who helps you.”






Thank You for taking away all of my fear and timidity. I will prepare for the days ahead without fear. Whatever Your enemy, O God, conjures up, I will continue to seek You zealously and know that You are my strength and my deliverer. Arise O Lord and have Your way!
