TOO LATE: WE HAVE MADE MANY ENEMIES
READ Judges 15
Judges 15:6, KJV
"Then the Philistines said, Who hath done this? And they answered, Samson, the son in law of the Timnite, because he had taken his wife, and given her to his companion. And the Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fire."
I heard, "we have done much harm to the enemy, we can't at this time repent or prove innocent of such acts." For all these harms that you and I have done our arch enemy, Satan, a retaliating band is on the outlook for us. We shouldn't be scared. Though He pursues after us, Christ is our strong tower. By Him, we'll continue to dare and dip fingers in his face yet go scot-free in Jesus' name.
Like somebody who has sinned deeply to the extent that he convinces himself in error that he can't be accepted again (though he still has a chance and God won't in any wise cast him away), so seems our own case. Since you and I agreed to do ministry and go on that path, you can't but be followed after for your many offensive works. If you want peace with Satan, you wouldn't be born again at all let alone heeding God's call to ministry. That you enroll as a Christian who faithfully does the will of God means you'll be followed after.
In today's passage, we see Samson avenging the giving of his wife to his best man. He destroys the farms of the Philistines and this touches them to the core. This is typical of our spiritual exploits as Christians and ministers. How we set the captives free from the clutches of hell. Didn't the Bible say, Satan specializes in not opening the prison door for his prisoners to go home (Isaiah 14:17).
Such man is He who we have robbed by might of the anointing and collected his prey from his mouth as we preach, crusade all around, do deliverance, counsel etc. Don't think you're not making impact. These quotes you're sending out is affecting hell. By that only, you've attracted his attention like Samson attracted that of the Philistines. When the anointing rests on a man, it does not only become an announcement and make headline in heaven but in hell. You're therefore in sight!
Satan will respond. Don't think he doesn't know who has collected his prey from his mouth. The Philistines asked, "who has done this (exploit)?" It was fed them, "Samson." In retaliation, they went to burn down his wife and her father. If Satan can't immediately get you (which is his core target), he'll launch attacks at your associations.
When Jesus says no one says yes and looks back, it is very valid.
Luke 9:62, KJV
"...No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."
You have signed in O man of God. You have done much havoc and already have enough records for which Satan will pursue you. You can't say you don't mean all you were doing. You can't go on vacation spiritually now. You can't afford to backslide now. Doing any of these is actually making yourself a cheap meat for the devil who has you in mind to hurt for the blows you've dealt him. Only Satan can chronicle how much hurt you've done him. No Samson knows actually.
The tracts you thought no one read has brought loss of souls to hell. Why won't he seek you to pay for that damage? You may be shouting hallelujah that you're bringing profit to God. However, you've also brought losses to the devil. No business person wants losses. God and Satan are business men. They trade in the souls of men and rival to have them. You have by your works accrued many enemies. Don't pedal down now for you've been declared wanted: dead or alive by hell.
Despite this unleashing of hell at you, behold your resources.
II Kings 6:16, KJV
"And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them."
As long as you don't make provision for the flesh or give the enemy an occasion to blaspheme God like David mistakenly did, you can't be reproached by Satan nor anything of his found in you (II Samuel 12:14). So, continue to bring losses to Satan while not forgetting for once that each of your hurt to him makes you more wanted.
PRAYER: Lord, may no unrighteousness be found in me that Satan can accuse me of. I repent of all hidden and unconfessed sins. I purge myself of all weapons of hell that are alive in me. May I avenge the Lord daily.
