TEXT: 1 SAMUEL 2: 1-10
Adversaries are enemies and they abound everywhere, at home – household enemies, at work or place of business and even in the church of God. Only grace through Christ can silence our enemies and that grace is available for somebody today in Jesus name. The job to silence your enemy is not a big deal for God; He has done it in the lives of many people before. Your case will not be a novelty to God. There is nothing unique or unheard of about whatever you might be going through. No matter what may seem your case, God already has a template you can work with, edit and personalized for your own use.
Brothers and sisters in Christ, I wish to write on four ways by which God can silence your adversaries, though this is by no means the only ways possible. God can bless you so greatly. In 1 Sam. 2:21……. As at this time, Hannah already had 3 boys and 2 girls. God did not just remove the reproach, but silenced her adversary PERMANENTLY. You are the next in line in Jesus name. God can honor you and make your enemy the MC at your celebration. Esther 6:11. God can promote you above your adversary and make him or her even come to you for help, sustenance, advice or counsel. It’s not the time to pay evil with evil……Mat 5:44.
Children of the Most High God, God can kill your adversary…1 Sam. 17: 49, 50. Beloved, if you are a covenant child of God, any one that opposes you opposes God Himself because you are in a covenant relationship with God and He’s a covenant keeping God. Even human beings defend their investments and God will not do less.
However, to every coin, there are two sides. God expects you to play your own part as well as God do His own and that is where grace, the unmerited favor of God comes to play. “For by grace are you saved through faith and not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by works lest any man should boast “….Eph. 2: 8, 9. 1 Sam. 2:9. “By strength shall no man prevail…….” By our own efforts, we cannot fulfill our own side of the bargain, but the grace of God is available to qualify the unqualified.
I pray that grace will speak for you over all your adversaries in Jesus name.
PRAISE THE LORD.
