TODAY’S DEVOTION (SATURDAY 8TH November 2025)
“[And the Lord answered] Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yes, they may forget, yet I will not forget you.
Behold, I have indelibly imprinted (tattooed a picture of) you on the palm of each of My hands; [O Zion] your walls are continually before Me.
Your children and your builders make haste; your destroyers and those who laid you waste go forth from you.” Isaiah 49:15-17 AMPC
WELCOME TO THE 312TH DAY OF OUR YEAR OF VICTORY
One of the common miracles that Jesus performed when He was physically on earth was the opening of blind eyes. It pleases the LORD that our eyes be restored. Eyes means vision.
His healing of blind eyes tells us that the restoration of prophetic vision is one of the works of the Spirit of Christ. It also tells us that God wants us to live visionary lives. If we are not visionary, we are spiritually blind, and things will not end up well with us.
The first thing the enemy will take out of a person of rich potentials is the ability of the person to see into the future, into the spirit realm and into God’s plans for the person’s life. He will make the person one who live by their emotions instead of life vision.
Understand that, no matter how gifted, brilliant or blessed you are, if you are not living your life by your God given life vision, you will not achieve anything in His plans for your life. All your potential will just be channeled in the wrong direction or shut down completely.
The potentials of Samson were channeled in the wrong direction when they took away his eyes during the Delilah experience. The Bible says:
“But the Philistines laid hold of him, bored out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza and bound him with [two] bronze fetters; and he ground at the mill in the prison.” Judges 16: 21 AMPC
Why were the eyes or vision of Samson the first to be touched by the enemy? It is a major sign to men and women of great potentials in every generation. The enemy takes away the vision of GOD’s people first whenever we fall into his hands, because he knows how powerful we can be if we are visionary.
THAT IS WHY THE WORD SAYS, “GIVE NO PLACE TO THE DEVIL.”
If we give him a place, he will come for our vision; our ability to live visionary lives or see into the unseen realm and sense what the future holds. Once that happens, and he succeeds, we will become bound by his bronze fetters of suffering, making us mince at the mill in the prisons of life.
Maybe this will help us understand; have you ever seen very gifted, brilliant and blessed people suffering? The enemy have taken away their vision or ability to be visionary, hence the suffering. When suffering is associated with or caused by lack of vision, there is no amount of prayer that can change a man’s situation.
Until visionary living is restored, prayers will do little or nothing to change our situations in life. Those who understand what we know as spiritual warfare in Church knows that the first assault of hell against you will be on your ability to see into the unseen or your ability to perceive God’s plans for your life or sense the future.
He will take away all instruments of visionary living in a person’s life. Yes, there are instruments of visionary living. One of the major things we must learn to protect in our lives in spiritual warfare is whatever concerns our life visions or our ability to perceive in the Spirit and take accurate prophetic steps in life.
We should not forget that if we do not have a life vision from the LORD, we are still blind in life no matter how good our natural eyesight may be. We are bound to fall into the ditches of life through bad decisions, because it is our vision that tells us of the decision to make and the ones not to make.
One of the major decisions to make in life is the decision to respect the laws of visionary living. One of those laws is the law of visionary relations.
Laws are principles that determines outcomes in life. One cannot replace them with prayers. In fact, if you are praying and not respecting these laws as a child of God, things will not be working well in your life.
YOU WILL END UP FRUSTRATED AND GOING BACK TO YOUR OLD WAYS.
The law of visionary relations is even used by Satan to ruin lives. So, let me begin with visionary relations from the kingdom of darkness.
Satan will assign people to our lives whose only reasons for bringing them into our lives is to ruin us down. They will not come saying, “I want to ruin your life.” No! It will be to offer help. But if you sit down to access what the relationship has brought into your life, you will see ruin, ruin, ruin, ruin.
They only leave your life either when you are ruined or when you are being ruined.
That is why when you were up, they were there. But when you became down, they walked out. Some who do this may not be there to ruin you but to announce your ruin when it happens. Or create it by walking out of your life when you need them most.
Satan would always use his own visionary relations to ruin people. They could come in the guise of husbands, wives, pastors, prophets, business partners, faithful church members, bosom friends or brothers and sisters in times of need. They come with a vision, to see you fall.
Delilah, for example, was a hell’s visionary relation sent to Samson.
She was driven by one passion and one vision, to know the secret of his strength and hand it over to Samson’s enemies. All she did in his life was to achieve that. Her care, concern for his problems and all the massage was not really because she cared for him but because she cared for his ruin.
MAY GOD PROTECT US IN 2026 FROM HELL’S VISIONARY RELATIONS IN JESUS PRECIOUS NAME.
Concerning this mighty warrior of the LORD, Samson, who was ruined through a terrible visionary relation from the kingdom of darkness, the Bible says:
“After this he loved a woman in the Valley of Sorek whose name was Delilah.
And the lords of the Philistines came to her and said to her, Entice him and see in what his great strength lies, and by what means we may overpower him that we may bind him to subdue him. And we will each give you 1,100 pieces of silver.
And Delilah said to Samson, tell me, I pray you, wherein your great strength lies, and with what you might be bound to subdue you.” Judges 16:4-6 AMPC
Visionary relations from the kingdom of darkness are a ruin any day and anytime. But they do not come like men and women from darkness.
They come like men and women from light. The Bible says they masquerade as angels of light, or help, care, prosperity, a brighter future and all that. But within the time they showed in your life and the time they walk away, if you are not protected by the LORD, they will destroy you completely.
Sometimes they seat with you in Church and become your best friend, but you will never know what they will lead to. They will start talking to you about the flaws in the preacher you so honor but mildly, and you will be entertaining the stories innocently, with no ill motive.
Am not talking about when God opens the eyes of His sheep to recognize a charlatan and false preacher who had appeared true hitherto. I am referring to Satan using a visionary relation from his kingdom to paint a true servant of GOD dark, using carefully cooked stories in order to take you away from the place of destiny.
I can’t forget a Church member who even promised people jobs while doing that in our church. It lasted for months, and it was divine protection that helped us.
If talking about the pastor is not working, they will move to telling you stories about other church members, and then the pastor’s wife, if he is married, then this other person. Before you know it, they have shaped your perspective about a good church family you once loved, and a righteous preacher who so blessed your life.
VISIONARY RELATIONS FROM HELL ARE POSITIONED AROUND EVERY ONE OF US, DO NOT BE MISTAKEN ABOUT IT.
There is even one close to you as you read this. His or her line is in your phone. You just may not know, because sometimes until they get to their maturity stage in our lives, they appear helpful to us. That is why we must be careful in life.
There are those who go about defiling men and women in church sexually, in the guise of they want to marry them. They come in different shades my friend, depending on your wants in life. They have ruined so many. The Bible calls them our destroyers.
Visionary relations from God are what we need, and I will share more about that tomorrow.
Our Devotional text says:
“[And the Lord answered] Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yes, they may forget, yet I will not forget you.
Behold, I have indelibly imprinted (tattooed a picture of) you on the palm of each of My hands; [O Zion] your walls are continually before Me.
Your children and your builders make haste; your destroyers and those who laid you waste go forth from you.” Isaiah 49:15-17 AMPC
This is a promise from the LORD on deliverance from visionary relations from hell. It says because of the visions and revelations of the LORD for our lives, as tattooed in His hands, He will make sure those who laid us waste go away from us.
God’s will is that all visionary relations from hell go away from us. You can take that promise to Him in prayer and ask Him to fulfill it in your life as we return tomorrow for another revelation.
MAKE THIS SCRIPTURE AN ADDITIONAL MEDITATION FOR THE DAY!
“Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.
And God’s peace [shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7 AMPC
