THE BATTLE IS THE LORDS

>ISAIAH 8:9-10 Associate yourselves, O ye people, and ye shall be broken in pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries: gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces. (10) Take counsel together, and it shall come to nought; speak the word, and it shall not stand: for GOD is with us. COMMENTARY: Brethren in Christ, The Lord GOD spoke through prophet Isaiah to assure his people that he is with them when their enemies take counsel against them. His word teaches us to stay away from gossiping, backbiting and plotting evil against one another. When the demons and witches plan evil against us in the spiritual realm; when we face warfare at the work place, or when friends and family members whom we trusted turn in against us. The Lord GOD, assures us through prophet Isaiah that none of these plans from the enemies shall hold for he will fight our battles and justify us. Brethren, how can we get the Lord to fight our battles for us? We have to build a relationship with him, we need to pray everyday, read his word (the bible) and believe in him through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. CONCLUSION: Let us stay away from gossiping, backbiting, and skimming against one another in the workplace, among friends and family or in the church of God. The Lord knows when our enemies gird themselves against us; and he will surely fight our battles and prevail for he is with us. Amen and Amen!
