The Holy Spirit this morning in my communion time with Him pointed out to me emphatically that when the word says “Let God arise and all His enemies be scattered” we need to embrace the reality of that truth and how that applies to us and what we are facing.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me that we almost by rote think that when God arises enemies are scattered in general but fail to recognise that it means those enemies that have come against us are scattered and we will see them no more available to afflict and seduce us from truth that makes us free.

The Holy Spirit then reminded me of what happened to me at the start of my journey when Jesus invited me to follow Him. I was renting an accommodation with a cousin who suddenly became a thorn in my flesh once I decided to follow Jesus completely. In a vision I saw some lady saying that in our family we cannot go after the power of God.

She pointed out to me that we could be religious but she would fight if we opted to go after the power of the Lord. All I had done was accept the invitation of Jesus and now was facing obstacles and attacks.

This cousin now suddenly started calling and invoking ancestral spirits to come into the house and would say to me today we are coming to kill you but we are afraid that the living God will save you. This reality that the living God would save me gave me assurance that I would not be harmed because it was clear I was being protected from the enemy barrage of attacks..

I came to realize that they were doing things against me and what they were doing was failing because the Hand of the Lord was continually protecting me. She was possessed with satanic power that was targeted against me but I chose to express love to her and not fear her threats.She began doing things that compromised the security and safety of the house such as exposing the wires of the light sockets by taking off the bulb holders and leaving the live wires exposed.

Family relations had told me to throw her out immediately because she was a problem but I did not want to step out of the love of God. However when there was this compromise to the house I had to inform the Landlord who then asked her to leave because he did not want his house to be lost in a fire.

She was then thrown out and I was free. Now she went to stay with other family cousins and attempted to burn their house down because she claimed she had failed in her mission to destroy me and satan was requiring her life. She actually set the house on fire and sat in a circle around herself which she set on fire with all the papers of things she had failed to accomplish against me and when they called in the Fire brigade she was emphatically telling them that she had set the house on fire because she had failed in her mission to destroy me.

She was arrested and thrown into Prison for attempted arson and she then asked for me to come to her aid and get her out. When reality struck and her supposed power could not help her. She now wanted my God to step in and help her. She now seemed to trust in the ability of God above all she had done against me.

Throughout the whole ordeal the Holy Spirit kept reminding me He was with me and all will be well and that’s how it turned out for me triumphant.

Well what had happened for me was that God arose on my behalf and my enemies were scattered around me and all that drama and continuous threat to my life was removed and I was free to serve the Lord without fear as the Lord had promised.

Today the Holy Spirit reminded me of this event and said in like manner as He arises on my behalf all my enemies are scattered because anything that rises against me in Judgment is working against the Lord as I am serving His purpose on earth. The attacks are because I have chosen to follow His plan so the enemies will be scattered by the Lord so that I am able to fulfill His will. This was my introduction to what satan could cause a human to do against us.

This reality Ananias learnt when Jesus pointed out to him in Acts.9:15 that He had arrested Paul and stopped his assault when Ananias was trying to point out to Jesus how dangerous Paul was and what he was doing against the believers of Jesus.

He was unaware that the Lord was scattering the enemies and was speaking his fears to Jesus. However Jesus points out that Paul is His chosen vessel to carry the message of the Gospel into territory they would never go to.

We need to realize that the Holy Spirit will scatter and dismantle all enemies that rise against us so we are in position to fulfill the will of God. When the Lord said in Isaiah.54:17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And their righteousness is from Me,”Says the Lord. This is reality not a fable.

We must, the Holy Spirit pointed out to me, recognize that He has our backs covered and will do everything necessary to protect us from harm and the power of those against us. If we follow the Lord we will not be moved but our enemies will be scattered and we need to embrace this truth and walk in its reality in our lives on earth in Jesus name. Amen.
