TODAY’S DEVOTION (Wednesday 30th July 2025)
“The Lord is my Strength and my Song, and He has become my Salvation; this is my God, and I will praise Him, my father’s God, and I will exalt Him.”
“The Lord is a Man of War; the Lord is His name.” Exodus 15:2-3 AMP
WELCOME TO THE 211th DAY OF OUR YEAR OF VICTORY!
I want to begin by strongly but in humility, requesting that you go read the devotional of yesterday. If you have read it, then forward it to someone who has not. The word of the LORD against the activities of witchcraft is not something to be taken lightly.
Over the years, the ministries of sorcerers called prophets, heretics called apostles, and men who steal revelation to preach in their churches, have prospered in part because of the promise of the false liberty from the activities of witchcraft that they demonstrate.
People have believed and followed things they took for the truth to deal with the activities of witchcraft only to end up moving from the captivity of black witchcraft to that of charismatic witchcraft. God wants all free from any dark power because the release of the destiny of the righteous is the topmost priority of heaven for all mankind.
The LORD made it clear to us yesterday via the holy scriptures that no one can fulfill their destinies under the trappings of witchcraft and that we cannot overcome this dark force by asking that God kill the witches or wizards. The LORD showed us the most effective way. I believe it is something that should be published repeatedly, so that people can find the right light to shine in the darkness of any form of witchcraft and release their destinies.
It is my prayer that God’s promise for our lives stands. That whatever He has declared in His word concerning our lives provokes a visitation from His throne. Amen and amen.
It is important to note that God hate seeing us in the hands of our enemies. He hates seeing predators attacking us and devils dealing with us helplessly. That was why He sent that word to us. God will never leave you in the hands of your enemy if you have a divine destiny to fulfill, He will never leave you under any dark force with a divine assignment on your life.
WHEN THE NATION OF ISRAEL WAS REDUCED TO SLAVES IN EGYPT, WITH A DIVINE DESTINY TO FULFILL, GOD NEVER LEFT THEM THERE.
He went in to break the backbone of Pharoah and caused them to go free. He smashed the gods of Egypt and brought His people out, chiefly because of His assignment upon their lives. That established that He will never leave His own under the grip of witchcraft. But we must follow the solution we saw in His word yesterday!!
Yes, we must because we are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, and a holy nation. We fight for our freedom following His ways or warfare tact. We do not fight based on our emotions. He will always roar from His throne room and cause us to picked it in our different burning bushes like He did for Moses.
He will make sure that we are not given over to the will of our enemies. Even if the enemy takes over a preacher to entrap God’s people, Heaven does not spare. A lot of what we call witchcraft now comes from the pulpit, exposing many to what comes from other places. This is not the first time it has happened.
It happened in Bible times, leading to God crying through Ezekiel saying,
“Behold, I am against the shepherds, and I will require My flock at their hand; I will cause them to cease feeding the sheep, and the shepherds shall feed themselves no more; for I will deliver My flock from their mouths, that they may no longer be food for them.”
“Behold, I Myself will judge between the fat and the lean sheep.” “Because you have pushed with side and shoulder, butted all the weak ones with your horns, and scattered them abroad, therefore I will save My flock, and they shall no longer be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep.” Ezekiel 34:10, 20-22 NKJV
God will not allow your destiny to be trapped even in the wrong church. He will not allow an irresponsible shepherd to neutralize His plan for your life. He will not allow men and women with a false spirit to keep you for too long. What He wants to do with your life is stronger than anything else in this world.
DO NOT LET ANY DECEIVE YOU.
He will never allow you or anyone out there to be given over to the will of those the Bible calls the enemies of the CROSS. No, He will not. He will not give us over to the will of envious, jealous, and misguided leaders. When He saw David being given over to the will of Saul, He swiftly intervened, handing over even the life of Saul to David.
However, David knew it was a test, hence He did not kill him but rather handed him over to God.
Your divine destiny will need such escapes from wickedness for it to be fulfilled. As we can see, Saul wanted David dead, but because of David’s destiny, God rather gave Saul to David to kill. But as earlier stated, the young man of GOD was wiser than the old king. He knew the wickedness of the wicked will slay them hence not staining his hands with blood.
There is a blessing for the tribe of Judah. It is the blessing of having our hands on the neck of our enemies. That was what manifested in the life of David. The heritage is still available to us today by the blood of Jesus. By this heritage He can still hand over the lives of those who want you dead into your hands. Not for you to kill, but to demonstrate the nature of Christ.
Understand that whenever we are facing life threatening situations as men and women of destiny, Heaven has a way of shifting the gear of victory in our favor. When it becomes necessary, God will move His warfare angels to fight the battle. He will change the tune of His voice to begin to speak forth victories for us.
There are times you will find Him roaring like a lion against our enemies. Let that be your confidence in whatever you may be going through. The Bible says,
“If a trumpet is blown in a city, will not the people be afraid? If there is calamity in a city, will not the Lord have done it?
“Surely the Lord God does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets. A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord God has spoken! Who can but prophesy?” Amos 3:6-8 NKJV
OUR DEVOTIONAL TEXT THIS MORNING SAYS, “THE LORD IS A MAN OF WAR, THE LORD IS HIS NAME.”
Who will have this kind of God by his side and fear what men may be planning to do or may have already done against him? Who will have this Kind of God by his side and not fulfil their divine destiny, even in the presence of their enemies.
Here is a secret, there is no god, devil, politician, king, prince, or fierce messenger of death with the title of MAN OF WAR in the spirit realm. Only our Almighty God has that title. That is why every other god become like wax in His hands whenever He moves to save us. The Bible says,
“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?”
“He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.”
“Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.” Romans 8:31-35 NKJV
Paul saw How God helped him against the beast of Ephesus, and the political force of his days. The early church was helped by all that rose against them. We will be helped too. They had the man of war by their side, and we have Him too. If you have the man of war by your side, it does not matter who is not by your side. You will fulfill your destiny!!!
What is the message of our devotion this morning? The message is a simple prophetic word for someone in need of divine rescue. It says, “God will not hand you over to the will of your enemies.” Cheer Up!
MAKE THIS SCRIPTURE AN ADDITIONAL MEDITATION FOR THE DAY!!
“Don’t be afraid. I am with you. Don’t tremble with fear. I am your God. I will make you strong, as I protect you with my arm and give you victories.”
“Everyone who hates you will be terribly disgraced; those who attack will vanish into thin air. You will look around for those brutal enemies, but you won’t find them because they will be gone.”
“I am the Lord your God. I am holding your hand, so don’t be afraid. I am here to help you.” Isaiah 41:10-13 CEV
