SEEDS OF DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL 26 JULY 2024 SOD MESSAGE WRITTEN BY DR. PAUL ENENCHE
Dunamis Seeds of Destiny Daily Devotional 26 July 2024, SOD Reading for Friday
TOPIC: No One Can Stop You
SCRIPTURE: And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. MATTHEW 11:12.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: If God can set aside His own law because of a fighter, there is no witch, devil or principality that can stop you from becoming what God wants you to be if you deploy the fighting spirit.
We have seen that it takes a fighting spirit to access your inheritance in God. Ruth was one person who accessed her inheritance by the fighting spirit. Originally, Ruth was not an Israelite. She was from the tribe of Moab, a cursed tribe that came out from the union of Lot and one of his two daughters. Ruth was married for ten years, but had no child and then, her husband died. She was a barren widow. Then, it was time for Naomi, her mother in-law to return to her father’s house in the land of Israel.
You know, God said that Moabites must never enter the congregation of the Lord (Deuteronomy 23:3-6). This means, Ruth was not qualified to enter the congregation of the children of Israel. She was not qualified to follow Naomi to the land Israel. But Ruth fought her way into the land of Israel.
When Naomi, her mother in-law asked her to go back, she replied “I am going nowhere. I am not going back; your God shall be my God, your people shall be my people. Where you die, there I shall die; where you are buried, there, I shall be buried. It is only death that can separate us” (Ruth 1:16-17, paraphrased).
And because of her fighting spirit, Ruth, who was a stranger that was not meant to share fellowship with the people of God, forced her way into commonwealth of Israel which was contrary to divine injunction. It was God who made the law that the Moabite must never mingle with Israelites; but when God saw her decision and fighting spirit, he set aside the law. God seemed to have said, “I can stop other Moabites, but not this one.” And because Ruth was a fighter, she became one of the ancestors of Jesus Christ.
Beloved, if God can set aside His own law because of a fighter, there is no witch, devil or principality that can stop you from becoming what God wants you to be if you deploy the fighting spirit.
REMEMBER THIS: If God can set aside His own law because of a fighter, there is no witch, devil or principality that can stop you from becoming what God wants you to be if you deploy the fighting spirit.
