Our God is the God of salvation; and to GOD the Lord belong escapes from death.

Psalm 68:20

With God on our side, we cannot even doubt whether He will save us and bless our lives. In Him, there is always yes and yes; after all, He has already done what was necessary to give us His blessing and rescue us from the clutches of the enemy – no matter how strong the pressure of Satan over us might be. The Almighty is the One in whom we can trust and who has the escapes from death. When He works, no one can reverse it or get in His way.

In your mind, what picture do you make of the Most High? Is He all-knowing, almighty and omnipresent? Does He have to make any efforts in order to know what happens in your life? Well, our God is the only Lord in all situations! This means that when He gets into action there’s no such thing as an impossible task. Therefore, he to whom the Almighty is revealed is halfway through to being blessed.

In the Lord, there is always yes and yes. In fact, His promises have already been provided, and nothing is lacking on His part. So, if we believe in what He tells us, then we won’t lack anything either. Even if you are going through a major problem – to which, apparently, there is no escape – but the Word visits your heart and you feel that, by faith, you can achieve victory, at that very moment you should believe and take possession of your blessing because it only depends on your action.

There is no other way for man to escape the powers of darkness, except with the escapes that God created for man to flee death, which is Satan’s nature. When someone is overcome by temptation and falls into sin, he or she can only get rid of the infernal bond by means of the divine revelations, which can be obtained through the Holy Word. The good thing is that besides possessing that which frees us from slavery, God will never hide from anybody.

It’s impossible not to trust the Almighty! Of all the promises He made to us not even one of them was left unfulfilled (Numbers 23:19); after all, He honors what His lips have uttered. In His Word, there isn’t one single statement claiming that the Lord was wrong or misguided. Everything is naked and exposed before His eyes! So those who believe in what He says will see that His promises will be confirmed in their life. Also, there was never a time when He was prevented from completing His plans. Actually, the one who was opposed to His intents was removed.

The best thing to do is to give yourself wholeheartedly to the divine work and accomplish what the Father commands for if you remain silent, others will obey Him. The blessings that God has planned for you do not depend on the fact that there is too much or too little pressure from the enemy. When the Almighty decides to take action, it is better to submit to His plans, for what He determines will come true, albeit the heavens and the earth will pass away (Luke 21:33). He decided to grant you salvation!

In Christ with love,
