Text: Psalm 121:1-2
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
Everything the God created is good. The works of his hands are perfect. If you observe that something is wrong with you it is not from the Most High but from the powers of darkness. True help can only come from him. Surprisingly some think they can get help from the powers of darkness to solve the problems caused by the same power of darkness.
The truth is that the devil cannot undo the evil works of his own hands. His kingdom is well organized. You cannot use Satan to drive away Satan. The word of God says,” And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand? Matthew 12:26.
When king Saul lost his connection with God, instead of him to repent and cry back his way to God for mercy, he decided to consult the Witch of Endor (The same witch he had banned from the land in his days of righteousness) – a practice that is an abomination in the sight of the Most High- Deuteronomy 18:11; 1 Samuel 28:7-20.
What the devil does is to steal from someone and give to another- John 10:10. For example, when someone is sick and goes to a witch doctor (an agent of darkness), what he does is to find away to transfer the sickness to someone else. He cannot truly take away any sickness, only Jehovah Rapha can- Exodus 15:26.
Every reproach and imperfection in your life should be taken to Jesus Christ, the Problem Solver and Burden Bearer. He said, “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am [gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30.
Reflective Nugget: True help comes from the Lord.
