The Holy Spirit pointed out to me in my communion time with Him this morning that we as humans always think that if something is being swallowed up by another it is evil. 

It is unfortunate that we have come to believe that because of the python which has that power to swallow up its victims. It is evidence that evil always ends up overtaking good and bringing forth negative results.

The Holy Spirit led me to Isaiah:25:7-8 and pointed out to me that it is He the Lord who swallows up the oppression that weighs us down. He is the One with the power to remove negative things and replace them with His goodness. 

He is the One who calls things that don’t exist as though they did. He is the One that gives life to the dead. Romans.4:17.He is the One that swallows up death forever and gives life and that in its fullest measure.John.10:10. 

The Holy Spirit also reminded me of the time in Revelation 12:16 when the earth swallowed up the flood satan spewed out and saved God’s servant. He pointed out to me that we should be more focused on Him swallowing up every evil work from our lives rather than satan swallowing up our lives and God’s promises over our lives.

 Our consciousness must be centred on His ability to swallow up anything satan throws at us rather than fear and cower at satan’s feeble attempts to threaten and intimidate us with sneak attacks planned to surprise us and then take us hostage on the basis of our fears. 

We have the Holy Spirit advantage and like Jesus did in the storm that suddenly arose, rebuke the storm, swallow it up with all its ferocity. Then restore peace from the inner strength within by the Holy Spirit even though we were asleep when it commenced. Mark.4:39-41.

So today dear fellow heirs of the inheritance in God quickly change your perspective and line up with the Lord’s perspective as you see all the satanic narratives you have experienced swallowed up. Romans.8:17.

They will be replaced with the miraculous Hand of God creating beauty out of ashes [the havoc it has wrecked in your lives] and producing a new song of victory and triumph beyond measure in your life. Isaiah.61:3.

May this song of deliverance be your portion today as you engage in aligning to the word of His grace in Jesus Name. Amen.
