The Mighty Warrior

But the Lord is with me like a mighty warrior;

    so my persecutors will stumble and not prevail.

They will fail and be thoroughly disgraced;

    their dishonor will never be forgotten.

Jeremiah 20:11

Your Encouragement

  • Yesterday, it was the sound of impending danger.
  • Today, it is the whispering of conspiracy against you from friends.
  • They fast, pray, and wait for you to slip and fall. 
  • That they may see your nakedness; that they may pounce on you and have a “good” laugh.
  • BUT! 
  • Boy, I love this.
  • God is with you like a mighty warrior (Jer. 20:11; cf. Joshua 5:13-14).
  • Therefore, those who persecute you will stumble.
  • They will never prevail over you.
  • They will fail every time. 
  • They will thoroughly suffer disgrace.
  • Their dishonor will tower like a memorial – always haunting them.
  • So, commit your case to Jesus today.
  • He says, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay” (Rm. 12:19).
  • Just trust Him and the peace of His Presence. 
  • He will take care of it, and you will have the last laugh. 

Shalom, and good morning.
