Psalms 119:23-24 Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did meditate in thy statutes. (24) Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counsellors.
Abraham overcame the five kings of the valley by obeying the Word of God. Joseph won Pharaoh with the wisdom and integrity of the Word of God. Moses also challenged a pharaoh with the strength of the Word of God. Joshua, and the judges conquered their enemies by following the Word of God. Daniel won a king to salvation by opening the Word of God. Paul of Tarsus changed the face of the world proclaiming the Word of God. Martin Luther stood up to princes and kings, with the sole authority of the Word of God, and won!
Today, the princes of darkness speak against the righteous. They connive tricks to make us fall, or at least to control the damage we cause to their ‘cozy’ little kingdom. They have pulled out all the stops in their efforts to drown the people of God.
Shall we fight the devil on our own? Run yes let’s run. This is not our fight; the devil is really is not fighting against us, he is fighting against the Lord and our sole weapon and protection, is Him. So let’s run, yes let’s run. Not from him as though in fear. Is a soldier coward because he runs to his sword in time of attack? So run to the two-edged sword of the Word that defeated the devil 2000 years ago with the joy, anticipation and expectation brought by the assurance of great victories, and fight.
Psalms 18:10 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.
