I have been mediating on
the scripture Luke 10:19 all day which says,
“I have given you authority to trample on
snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will
harm you”
It’s amazing how our frame of mind can affect our interpretation of
scripture Before reading the scripture this morning , I had
been talking to God about some things I needed
Him to attend to for my
household. So, when I read the scripture
early this morning, the “NOTHING WILL
HARM YOU” portion of the scripture jumped out at me. My confidence in God’s protection, safety, and
provision for my family was strengthen.
However, I could not get
the scripture out my mind all day. It was at the forefront of my spirit all
day. I found myself repeating it throughout the day. Later in the day, I read
the scripture again. My God! It hit me what God was trying to say to me.
The beginning of the
scripture reads, “I have given you AUTHORITY
to trample on snakes and scorpions and to OVERCOME ALL THE POWER OF THE ENEMY”. By speaking the scripture early to me this
morning He was saying two things.
Promise #1 - God wants us
to have confidence in Him, knowing that He has already orchestrated that NOTHING WILL HARM US.
Promise #2 - We have AUTHORITY given to us by Him. Its s fixed fight. He has given us the ability to OVERCOME ALL THE POWER OF THE ENEMY”. Glory! No meditate on that!!! Shondo!
Now, I have read this
scripture before and knew that God gave us power and authority. But, today was a deeper revelation of that
scripture. 1 Cor 2: 10 says that y God will continue to revealed to us His
will by his Spirit.
So, in 2013 God is
telling us to increase our confidence in HIM & walk in it! There's much
that still needs to be done. Another level of faith & confidence is
required. You can do it! J
In Christ,
