Revelation 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. 14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. 15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. 16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. 17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Life indeed is a journey and a call to Christianity is a call to war; we are not here to have fun, we are here to war against the kingdom of darkness. We need to have a mentality of a warrior in order to make most of our journey here on earth. The world is not smiling at you because you are not of the world even though you are in the world; the world hates you and it is a waste of time trying to turn your hater into a friend; it will only end in sorrow. John 17:14 (I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world). The word of God is His commandments and having it and the testimony of Jesus make you an overcomer and also an assurance that you will end your journey well. At new birth you are initiated into Christ as his weapon of warfare and his army. Many are confused about this particular issue; it seems they are far better off when they knew not Christ than now they met him; it is not like that; you just need the understanding of your new status and believe in the new you. Satan does not want you to keep the commandments of God and the testimony of Jesus; and that is what New birth has empowered you to do. Satan wants you to remain in disobedience because he is the Father the children of disobedience; so, his other name is disobedience. When you give your life to Christ you have changed your surname to Obedience instead of disobedience and he is angry that he has lost a child and he will come after you with all his weapons. The reality is that you are a weapon that God has created and released against him and his kingdom; all you need is the understanding of who you are in redemption and you will continue to defeat him and his agents any day and any time. It is like a mother hen that lost one of her chick to a hawk, she will abandon the rest and go after the hawk as if she can get her back and that's exactly what Satan is doing by chasing you. Satan was wroth and directed his anger against the remnant of the seed of the woman, which keeps the commandments of God, and has the testimony of Jesus. One of his strategies is to come against you in mass in order to overwhelm you; and subdue you and then discourage you. It is not time to lament, it is time to war because the more battles you engage in the sharper you become as a weapon. Jesus Christ is not to take us out of the world but to keep us from evil; so, he wants us to confront the world and conquer because he has given us all we need to overcome (John 17:15). He promised to be with us till the end and that's exactly what he is doing. The only way we can be defeated is if we step out of where our defense and power is; which is the presence of God. I pray for someone reading this message now, to receive grace to abide in the vine, in Jesus name. Friends, you can see why you are always struggling to obey God and to keep His commandments; that is the real war. It is not by power nor might but by the Spirit of God; so, it is only those who are born of the spirit that are the children of God and have the power to keep His commandments. In case you are tired of being in bondage of Satan and want your freedom; while waiting, please come over and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour today and be blessed by the LORD.
Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen
NENE ISAH,
