This is your scripture for today, may it empower you. Please leave a comment, share it widely and make someone's day.Title: The hand of the Lord is permanently against your enemies.
“And Samuel took a suckling lamb and offered it as a whole burnt offering to the LORD.
Then Samuel cried out to the LORD for Israel, and the LORD answered him.
Now as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel.
But the LORD thundered with a loud thunder upon the Philistines that day,
and so confused them that they were overcome before Israel.
And the men of Israel went out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines,
and drove them back as far as below Beth Car.
Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen, and called its name Ebenezer, saying,
“Thus far the LORD has helped us.” So the Philistines were subdued,
and they did not come anymore into the territory of Israel.
And the hand of the LORD was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.”I Samuel 7:9-13 NKJV.
Combining praise, worship and praying His promises will always give you victory in every situation you face.
Samuel offered a worship offering to the Lord, which the Lord accepted.
Samuel then cried to the Lord one half of Israel and the Lord heard him.
The hand of the Lord from that day onwards was against Samuel's enemies.
Point of Reflection:
In every situation you face, give thanks and worship Almighty God.
Use the weapon of praying the promises to bring your requests before the Almighty God.
He does answer prayer and when He does, nothing ever remains the same.
So remember when you praise and worship often and pray His promises.
The hand of God will be permanently turned against your enemies child of God.
You will be able to put up a memorial stone, a mile peg to mark the occasion and call it Ebenezer: thus far the Lord has helped me.
You need to put up memorials from time to time, take time to reflect, take stock to see what God has done for you.
Do you feel ready to celebrate another Ebenezer mile peg?
When you are ready-
