God Is Our Ally
"If you indeed obey his voice and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries."
~ Exodus 23:22
"Jesus Christ is to be acknowledged and obeyed. He is the vicegerent of God and speaks in the Father's name, and it is our responsibility to do as He commands. We shall lose the promise if we disregard the precept.
The Lord enters into a league with His people. He will bless those who bless us, and curse those who curse us. God will go heart and soul with His people. We need not concern ourselves about our adversaries when we are assured that they have become the adversaries of God.
So far as our own interest is concerned, we have no enemies; but for the cause of truth and righteousness, we take up arms and go forth to conflict. We are allied with the eternal God; and if we carefully obey the law of our Lord Jesus, He is engaged to put forth all His power on our behalf." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
Please pray this prayer with me this morning. Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us of all our sins, our debts, and our trespasses against You and man, as we forgive those who are indebted to us, and those who have trespassed against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from all evil:For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Honor, and the Glory, forever. It is in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
