I don’t know about you, but when I think about that phrase, “This far and no more!” it becomes an “Aah” moment for me! You see, knowing that God watches over you, working things out for you, and blocking the assault of the enemy against you, can’t be but an “Aah” moment! “This far and no more,” means the enemy can only come but so far and then he must stop. For He said, “thus far and no father will you come.” I don’t know about you, but that an “Aah” moment for me!
You
see, when God got behind Israel, He put a separation between
them and the enemy. The Egyptians, who sought to attack them from behind, were
neutralized. God blocked the attack. I want you
to know that, you don’t have to run away from the enemy, be
intimidated, or fearful, because God got
your back. He is your defense. That’s
why what the devil tries won’t work!
As Exodus 14:14 says, “The Lord will fight for you; you need
only to be still.”Place your hope, confidence and trust in the Lord who defends
you. Don’t
panic! Don’t fear. God has you covered
and has the enemy blocked. Know that He’s blocking the
attack on your family. He’s blocking the attack in
every area of your life where Satan has tried to stop you from possessing the
promises of God.
I tell you, when the devil and his imps are waging war in your life, don’t worry, be happy! Because the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you, and keep you from evil. God got your back! The same God who showed Himself strong on Hezekiah’s behalf is showing Himself strong on your behalf. Top of FormBottom of FormNo weapon formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord. [Isaiah 54:17]
“Though I walk in the midst of trouble, God preserve my life, He stretch out His hands against the wrath of my enemies, and His right hand delivered me….[Psalms 138:1-8].
As David said, “We put our hope in the Lord. He is our help and our shield…” [Psalm 33:20-22]
