God Fights for You
Isaiah 54:15-17
“If anyone attacks you, it is not from Me; whoever attacks you will fall before you. Look, I have created the craftsman who blows on the charcoal fire and produces a weapon suitable for its task; and I have created the destroyer to work havoc. No weapon formed against you will succeed, and you will refute any accusation raised against you in court. This is the heritage of the LORD’s servants and their righteousness is from Me.” This is the LORD’s declaration.
When bad things happen, the enemy always tries to convince us that God is punishing us or against us. His goal is to cause us to lose hope and start relying upon our own strength, which will always fail us. He may remind you of your sin and cause you to think you deserve his attack, but God boldly declares that your righteousness is from Him. He made you righteous through the blood of Jesus because your own righteousness would never be enough. The Devil is a liar, and this passage proves it! Any attack we encounter is NOT from God, and we should never lose hope or turn our backs on the One who fights for us!
God is creating a weapon to completely destroy the carefully constructed plans the Devil has worked against you. Don’t think for one moment God is fighting against you; He fights for you! He has created the destroyer to work havoc against your foe, and no weapon formed against you shall prosper! You have God’s word on it, and He has declared your victory!
Praise God for His wonderful works this morning, and thank Him for fighting your battles. You belong to Him, and He cares for His own. He gets glory in your victory and not in your defeat. Let your praises rise and your enemies scatter. Your Champion and Defender is the LORD!
Have a blessed day!
