“OUR GOD IS NOT LIKE THEIR GODS”

“For they are a nation void of counsel, nor is there any understanding in them. Oh, that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end. How could one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, and the Lord had surrendered them? For their rock is not like our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges for their vine is of the vine of Sodom and of the fields of Gomorrah; their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter. Their wine is the poison of serpents, and the cruel venom of cobras. Is this not laid up in store with Me, Sealed up among My treasures? Vengeance is Mine and recompense; their foot shall slip in due time; for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things to come hasten upon them. For the Lord will judge His people and have compassion on His servants when He sees that their power is gone, and there is no one remaining, bond or free. He will say: where are their gods, the rock in which they sought refuge?” Deuteronomy 32:28-37

Let your enemies be your judges; let them sit on the judgment seat against you and your interest; let join head to head and hand to hand against you, your God will still prove Himself strong, true, dependable, reliable and He will still execute His perfect will for your life in that same situation; let the enemy be your counsel and your close confidant, God will still keep you safe and He will still keep you protected under His grace and banner. Let their verdicts be against you, let it be the injustice you never expected, yet God will still justify you and His perfect will and plans for your life will definitely make a way for you. You will not end at their verdict, you will not be consumed by their weak and evil counsel, you will not fall into the same pit they have prepared for you to fall into, God knows how to rescue the innocent, He knows how to promote His children, He knows what is good and absolutely perfect for you. Even when the verdict of the wicked is against your thoughts and desires, God has a verdict for you, He has a desire for you, He has a plan for you, and He has a way He will lead you and He will definitely do what He had promised in His words and what He had planned.

The God of Daniel was there with him in the lion’s den even when the verdict of the people was against his desire, against the will of God as he thought, and when his prayers were not answered the way he had desired in his prayers. The God of Daniel was not like the gods of the people who had judged him guilty and condemned him to death in the den of lions. The God of Jabez was not like the gods of his parents; the God of Moses was not like the gods of Pharaoh and the gods of the Egyptians, the God of the children of Israel was not like the gods of the Egyptians, the God of Joseph was not like the gods of those in prison with him. You are serving a mighty God, the Almighty God, the all knowing and all powerful God, His love is eternal and His power to keep you is eternal. He took David from the sheep pen and made him a king, He took Peter from the bank of the river and made him His disciple, He took the children of Israel to the place He had promised by His mighty power and He confirmed all of His promises to Abraham and to his wife Sarah even when they were old and no one expected anything better in their lives. In all things that will ever involve you, do not compare their gods with your God; do not compare yourself with them; do not compare your life with theirs; do not compare your future with theirs; do not compare your chances of success with anyone else even when you are in the same situation with them, in the same location, in the same profession and the same gender. Your God is greater, He is better, He is much more than any other god and He is the only maker of all things including the things and people they call their gods. Where others had failed, there God will preserve you and there God will bless you. You are not like them in all things and your God is not like theirs in any way. Your God is far above all, far above your weaknesses and failures and feelings; He will not withhold His best from you and there is nothing He cannot do. For Prayers, Click here
