“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”

Psalms 140: 7, 8

O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation, you have covered my head in the day of battle.

Do not grant, O Lord, the desires of the wicked; Do not further his wicked scheme, lest they be exalted. Selah

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen

Our soul, the bride, the church is delivered and saved by the Lord from all the enemies surrounding us.

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days, we meditated that we, the bride, the church should never forget the benefits which the Lord has done. If we will forget in this manner, then God will submit us into the hands of the enemy for war and we meditated this along with patterns.

Next, what we are meditating is that 1 Samuel 12: 9 - 11 And when they forgot the Lord their God, He sold them into the hand of Sisera, commander of the army of Hazor, into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab; and they fought against them. 

Then they cried out to the Lord, and said, ‘We have sinned, because we have forsaken the Lord and served the Baals and Ashtoreths; but now deliver us from the hand of our enemies, and we will serve You.’ 

And the Lord sent Jerubbaal, Bedan, Jephthah, and Samuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side; and you dwelt in safety.

In the above-mentioned verses, because the people of Israel did in this manner he sold them into the hand of Sisera, into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab. In this manner when they were fighting there, the Israelites cried out to the Lord and are confessing the mistakes that they had done. They said that we have sinned and now deliver us from the hand of our enemies, and we will serve you. And the Lord sent Jerubbaal, Bedan, Jephthah, and Samuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side; and you dwelt in safety.

My dear people, these enemies in our soul do not allow us to walk truthfully and many enemies which bring up many evil thoughts work against us from uniting with God and against our holy life and God is showing this as a pattern regarding the enemies who are working in this manner. That is, if we confess our mistakes in the presence of the Lord, he will deliver us from such kind of enemies and save us. Therefore, let us submit ourselves for him to deliver us from all kinds of enemies.

Let us pray. May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
