“THEY WANT ME TO BOW TO THEM LORD (2)”

Post date: Apr 26, 2021 11:17:13 PM

It is not only Satan and his agents who want you to bow to them; people you know and those you do not know are also asking you to bow to their demands, friends, colleagues, foes, enemies, family members, spouses, children, neighbors, Satanist and dozens of other things want you to bow and are pilling pressures on you on every side every day and everywhere. But the scripture is true, resist the devil, stand firm on the word of God, your day of victory will definitely come not your day of defeat despite the pressure and the names they are calling you for refusing, resisting, and standing against their demands. “Be careful—watch out for attacks from Satan, your great enemy. He prowls around like a hungry, roaring lion, looking for some victim to tear apart. Stand firm when he attacks. Trust the Lord, and remember that other Christians all around the world are going through these sufferings too. After you have suffered a little while, our God who is full of kindness through Christ will give you His eternal glory. He personally will come and pick you up, and set you firmly in place, and make you stronger than ever.” 1 Peter 5:8-10

There are many things happening to you, happening around you, happening in your marriage and home, happening in your profession, and happening in your own household that is not ordinary. The intent of these happenings is that you will bow to their evil demands, you will compromise your Christian values and ethics, you will abandon truthfulness and holiness, you will abandon faith in the word of God, and you will follow them to act differently, departing from the standard of God by following the dictates of their thoughts and imaginations which are contrary to the doctrines and words of God. There are many things in life we should not be taking for granted even when we have prayed to God about them and also trust God in them. The devil is not resting over your issues and life. He knows you have prayed, he knows you are trusting in God, he knows you have heard and believed all God’s words, and he knows you have decided to keep yourself through the enabling power of Christ Jesus, yet he is trying if he will one day succeed over you. You should not let that one day Satan is waiting for to happen. Keep your faith strong in Christ Jesus, maintain your love for His word and for His presence; in all things and in all of your ways, seek His face and remain in His love. Christ is capable of keeping you and He will.

Saul lost the kingship he was freely chosen and freely given because of the fear of losing in a battle God was ready to fight for him. He briefly decided to discard God’s instruction given to him through Samuel for a moment due to what he was seeing. That single disobedience was all it took for him to be rejected by God and he never recovered from it. This is what Samuel told him when he came; “What have you done asked Samuel? Saul replied, when I saw that the men were scattering, and that you did not come at the set time, and that the Philistines were assembling at Mikmash, I thought, ‘Now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal, and I have not sought the Lord’s favor. So I felt compelled to offer the burnt offering. You have done a foolish thing, Samuel said. You have not kept the command the Lord your God gave you; if you had, He would have established your kingdom over Israel for all time. But now your kingdom will not endure; the Lord has sought out a man after His own heart and appointed him ruler of His people because you have not kept the Lord’s command.” 1 Samuel 13:11-14

When what you see and hear every day and every time are compelling you to accept and to bow to their demands; when your prayer and request for a particular thing is not answered soon; when you experience delays and disappointments; when your hope and strong expectations fail; when what you truly need and strongly desire are contrary to reality; when your world is turned upside down; when Christianity becomes a challenge; when your faith in God’s word is no more worth following, I want you to that God can pull you out from everything that wants you to bow to evil and He will; keep your trust in Him and obey His words.
