Exodus, chapter 23.25,27: “And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee. There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfill.”
“I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee”.
There the Lord said He will touch you and heal you if you’re sick. There the Lord said He will fulfill the number of your days. Not only that; He said, all the enemies that shall rise up against you…the way they came, that’s the way they will go back. He says He will turn them back away from you. It will be so in Jesus’ name.
Thereafter you will be filled with joy. By the grace of God, your cup will be full and overflowing in Jesus’ name. The joy of the Lord will be your strength in Jesus’ name. Now you’ll be celebrating and be singing. The song of praise will never leave your mouth in Jesus’ name.
All those terrifying enemies, that you have been shaking the knees and trembling before them because they were terrorizing you, after today you’re going to rejoice over those enemies. You are going to have peace. You will have a rest. All the hurrying up and down, running to and fro, wanting to hide (and seek and hide)…you’ve been hiding away from those people terrorizing your life. All that running away and running around…all that is gone. I said, “All that is gone.” You will stand your ground, and it is the enemies that will run in Jesus’ name.
Psalm 18.17: “He delivered me from my strong enemy…” He’ll do it for you. “…and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.” It means then no matter the strength or the power of those enemies that were trying to wipe you out of the earth, today the Lord is saying He will deliver you from those strong enemies. Even though they have been too strong for you, they’re not too strong for the Lord.
Think about your life. Who are the people that make you afraid? What do they do that makes you afraid? How do they look…their faces? What’s their stature…making you afraid? But today the Lord is your strength and the Lord is your light and the Lord is your salvation. Whom will you fear? After this day anybody trying to run after you to destroy your life, they will stumble and they will fall. The confidence of the Lord will come to your life today in Jesus’ name. The victory that Jesus Christ purchased on the cross of Calvary when He gave a spiritual knockout, knock-down, knock-up against the devil…that victory will be yours today in Jesus’ name.
That’s why the Lord is telling you today there is deliverance waiting for every one of us in Jesus’ name. For the Lord has redeemed us from the hands of the people that are stronger than we are.
If you believe this, give me a good amen.
