Failed Attempt
No weapon that is formed against you will prosper; and every tongue that accuses you in judgment you will condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their vindication is from Me, declares the LORD. Isaiah 54:17
I absolutely love this reminder.
We are in a spiritual battle and we must armor up each and every day. As we prepare ourselves for the fight it is nice to be reminded that no weapon formed against us will prosper. In other words an enemy’s weapon formed against you will not succeed in taking you down. If that does not make you want to rejoice, I don’t know what will. So whenever you see something being formed in your life to dismantle the destiny that God has created you for. Take a deep breath and realize that it didn’t say that the weapons wouldn’t come against you, it just said that it wouldn’t work. It would be a failed attempt of the enemy to knock you down.
‘No weapon formed against you shall prosper’ – This is not a promise that you will not receive attacks, or that you will not be struck by a weapon (i.e. test, trial, tribulation, suffering of any kind), but as we know we are born to the trouble (Job 5:7). The promise is that it will NOT PROSPER. Meaning that you will be able to rely on God’s hand to lift you up out of the trouble that you are in, or He will cause the trouble to turn around for good (Romans 8:28).
Be encouraged and understand this truth. If someone is using a job against you, know that it shall not prosper. If someone uses finances against you, know that it shall not prosper. If someone uses their tongue against you, know that it shall not prosper. No weapon formed against you shall prosper says the Word of God and everything we face will be used for God’s glory.
Walk in God’s divine protection plan and you will not fail.
