From The Dawn
The battle we face is not distant. It is not even at a time of convenience. Our battle takes place wherever we are, and can be at any time. This is because we have an evil enemy that is spiritual.
Ephesians 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
This enemy is on a clear mission. It is to destroy us.
John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
But even as he tries to destroy us, Jesus is there to protect and fight for us. We can count on Him to be there at all times. This battle even happens as we fall to sleep or as we wake. This is why David called to God at all times, and why God answers at all times.
Psalms 121:1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2 My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
8 The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
Isaiah 26:9With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.
If you find yourself under attack whether in your body or mind, whether morning, noon, or night, call out to our God and He alone will rescue.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You and thank You for coming to our rescue at all times. You alone are worthy of all our praise. Let Your kingdom reign in this earth. Forgive us when we transgress Your commands, and teach us Your ways. Heal us and deliver us. In Yeshua’s (Jesus’) name. Amen.
