For some time now, we have been receiving teachings on how to access God’s presence and prosperity. Today, we will learn, as God helps us, the enemies of God’s presence and prosperity, and how to deal with them.
We have already established that, it is God’s will for His children to prosper and that; we can access God’s order of prosperity when we dwell in God’s presence. However, the devil does not want you to enjoy God’s will for you and as such, he will always try to stop you from accessing God’s presence and prosperity.
What are these enemies?
- The enemy of spiritual intimidation and low self-esteem (Numbers 13:30-33). Don’t be surprised to see ‘low self-esteem’ here, indeed, as it is applicable in the physical, so it is in the spiritual. Your access to God’s presence and prosperity answers to your spiritual, physical and mental self esteem. In order to stop you from accessing God’s benefits for you, the devil tries to intimidate you into thinking that you are not qualified to receive God’s blessings. On the other hand, when you fail to see your glorious destiny and continually belittle yourself, you will find yourself missing out on God’s plan. The devil harasses you easily when you look down on yourself and fail to build your spirit man.
- The Spirit of spontaneous fear (2 Timothy 1:7, Luke 1:13, 30, 2:10). Fear has the capacity to enslave you and keep you stagnated. If you are afraid to climb spiritual heights, you might not enjoy the peak of God’s presence. If you are afraid to take risks needed to succeed in your career or business, you will not progress. If you are afraid to offer help to strangers or meet new people or you claim to be an introvert, you will miss so many wonderful opportunities. Fear is one tool the devil uses to cripple your destiny. Note also that the spirit of fear is associated with the spirit of death (Hebrews 2:14-15). You are delivered from fear in Jesus name. Amen!
- Railing accusation and conspiracy of satan (Revelation 12:10, Job 1:9-11, Zechariah 3:1, 2Peter 2:11, Isaiah 54:17). This has been the business of satan from the onset. He will always try to make you look bad before God and unqualified for God’s blessings. Beyond that, he could influence individuals to black mail you and thereby stop you from receiving favour. These accusations though false, have the capacity to change the mind of a person who wishes to faour you. Every accuser of your soul is crushed forever in Jesus name. Amen!
How do you deal with these enemies?
You rebuke them (Jude 1:8-9, Zechariah 3:2). If you keep quiet and watch the devil ruin you, then you have yourself to blame. Your future is your tongue. Rise up now and call forth your glorious destiny.
Prayer Line: Father in the name of Jesus, I rebuke every enemy of my advancement in life and destiny. Amen!
