Then the LORD turned to him and said, “Go in this might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites. Have I not sent you?

Judges 6: 14

One of the first lessons that those who believe in The Lord need to learn is that The Word of God takes over the absence of Jesus. What IT speaks straight into your heart is the full will of The Most High. Paying heed to what The Scripture declares is just like having listened to the Words of The Lord Himself; therefore, there is just one thing to do: To be obedient. Those who reject The Word do not love God and that is the reason why they do not have the divine power operating on their behalf.

Gideon knew that The Almighty was speaking to him as he heard the preaching of the prophet saying The Lord had sent him to awake the conscience of the children of Israel. That people was turning away from The Truth and for that reason they were facing hardships. Now, at that point, the Midianites were determined to get rid of the Israelites; today, the devil is doing the same regarding the children of God. As the devil casts his net over you he is using his lethal capacity to destroy you, and that is the reason why you must stay away from everything that comes from him.

Today, our Father uses the same method: He sends His servants out to teach us what to do whenever facing a crisis. The special envoys of God have only to speak His Word. That is the reason why you must believe in the understanding you got from The Scriptures, and put it into practice because The Most High will use you that way. Despising the divine voice is like closing the door to all and any operation of the heavenly power.

Gideon was being used by The Lord and that is the reason why the angel of God had an eye on him. The same occurs to those who get hands-on to fulfil what they are told. Yet, watch out for Him not to find you in any embarrassing situation and you must strive for your garments to always be white (Ecclesiastes 9: 8). Do not give the devil any room in your life (Ephesians 4: 27). May the divine power find you always being obedient, in all things, to the voice of The Lord!

The strength that the angel said Gideon had was precisely his understanding of the fact that, if The Lord was with him, the Midianites would be undoubtedly defeated. Your strength is the assurance that comes into your heart as you pay notice to The Word of The Lord; therefore, do not despise the faith God has granted you. You must know that the devil will do all he can to steal it from you because it has the power to lead you to success.

A man who is obedient to God trounces the enemy as if it was one single man. The battle to be fought by you must be entirely conducted by The Lord; so, do not be afraid of the size or amount of capacity that your adversary might seem to possess. As you receive the divine Word you will be receiving God Himself. Therefore, having The Greatest One by your side there is not the slightest possibility for you to be defeated by anything and no one. Success is for those who have The Lord in their hearts. 

Through The Most High you will conquer the deliverance of your problem and, this way, you will trounce the enemy who has risen against your life, your family or the whole community. Your victory begins the moment you believe that you will have that which The Word has revealed to you. Do not despise your deliverance which is on its way already!

In Christ, with love,
