WHEN THE ENEMY COMES LIKE A FLOOD

Recent rains brought unexpected floods in Accra. People’s houses where filled to the brim and vehicles were submerged as though the latest submarines in the Atlantic oceans. When the floods begin, nothing can be done in the process than to wait for all harm to be caused. Floods are unexpected before arrival and unavoidable in the process. This is the same strategy of the enemy against children of God; to come like a flood – unexpected and unavoidable.

GOD’S FIVE (5) WORDS AGAINST LUCIFER’S FIVE (5) “I WILL” STATEMENTS

Lucifer was once an angel (precisely the anointed cherub that covers, Ezek. 28:14) described verily as the son of the morning. He has become a profane thing because he fell in love with his glory and beauty and wisdom; he eminently became proud and self-centered. His prideful rebellion was demonstrated by five (5) “I will” statements against God. The five statements that Lucifer made as recorded in Isaiah 14:13-14 are;

1.      I will ascend into heaven

2.      I will exalt my throne above the stars of God

NAMES OF THE ENEMY (LUCIFER)

     Christianity is a victorious life because every step is demarcated for war, war which we have been given the power to win. The victory of Christianity is not a one day affair but a continual mission of fighting and overcoming the day-to-day war. Here is what the Bible says “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh” (2 Cor. 10:3). So as we live in the flesh as humans we do not war as humans do. The war we are fighting is not one which will require AK47 or a machete because it is not a physical battle (or a war of flesh). It is a spiritual war. All the enemies we are fighting against are in the spiritual (unseen wicked entities).
