You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.  Psalm 23.5

If you are afraid the devil might discover the good that God does to you and, thus, may harm you, then you still don’t know the Lord and you don’t know what He is capable of doing. No plans of the Most High can be prevented, and nothing can stop you from enjoying the fulfillment of His promises. After all, when the Most High works, He does good to those that believe in Him. 

For the Lord, the best place for Him to prepare you a table in which you will satisfy the hunger of your soul and you will go out to assert your rights in Christ is in the presence of your enemies. It´s as if He gathered those who want your evil and received a mission from Satan to make you suffer, and called them to show them how much He loves you. 

On this table, you will lack nothing. The Most High would not forget to put on it a simple and necessary item for your growth in faith or something to give you power. Day after day, your adversaries see you eating and getting stronger. Although they burn in hatred for what God is doing for you, they cannot harm you, because the Lord envelops and protects you from all sides. 

Once you are at the Lord´s table, His anointment will come over your head and, then, you will begin to understand things you had never seen or thought. From one moment to the next, the holy oil will make you realize that you can be more illustrious than your brethren and your faith will be stronger than before. God will give you the same oil of joy that He gave His Son Jesus. Thus, you will be able to go everywhere and do good to all people. 

The outcome of this anointment is that your cup will overflow. Then, everything you put your hand on will prosper, your life will advance and you will walk more firmly, doing good to all those people the Lord sends you too. Besides, you will not complain anymore about people and God, because the divine anointment over your head will cause you to overflow in power. 

Everyone needs the overflow of the Lord´s anointment over their life. Thus, both to the left and to the right, you will make people take hold of the blessings the Heavenly Father prepared for those who do His will. Until then, before the anointment began to be poured, you lived a “tight” faith and, in some situations, coward, for you did not have the courage to go before God and demand until you came out as a conqueror. 

The secret is to sit at the table and not look with fear to your opponents, but see them defeated. With the “nourishment” from Heaven, your time to reign has arrived. Then, every time the Word is revealed to you, smile; because the enemy has become aware of the powerful “food” God gave you and you became a threat to him. 

 

In Christ, with love,
