TODAY’S SCRIPTURE: Psalm 23
“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” (Psalm 23: 4)
In our Focal Scripture, the psalmist speaks about the walk through the valley of the shadow of death. The psalmist journeyed in the valley. The valley is a place of death. The valley is a low ground. The valley is the opposite of the mountain top. The psalmist went through the valley, and it was a valley of the shadow of death. It was a low ground that had death hiding in it. It was a low ground that had death in the offing for the psalmist.
Friend, when the enemy wants to extinguish a life, he begins with creating a valley experience. A journey through the valley is a potential journey of death. If the enemy is encouraging you to go on low grounds, you just might be making yourself more available for destruction. When you journey in the valley of sin and depression, below your destiny mandate and below your consecration, the enemy is preparing you for death.
If there be any valley you are already caught in, it is time to arise out of it. Walk away from the valley of unhealthy relationships. Walk away from the valley of reduction. Walk away from the valley of your wrong choices. Walk away from the valley of sin. Walk away from every connection that takes you to the valley. Say no to every connection that bring you down from the heights where God placed you. Refuse to go down in destiny.
Notice that the psalmist simply walked through the valley of the shadow of death. He didn’t stay in the valley. Make a commitment to leave every valley you have found yourself in. Walk away from every low ground that the enemy wants you to dwell in. Don’t stay down because you went down. Don’t accept the valley because you are already in it. Arise and walk away. If there be people who take you to the valley, walk away from them.
You were not wired to be in the valley. You were made for the mountain. You were made for heights. Your time in the valley is over.
Micah 7: 8 says: “Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me.”
DECLARATION: I refuse to dwell in the valley; I will not end in the valley, in Jesus’ name!
