Be Positive in Your Storm

1Samuel 4:6-11, Romans 8:31

I salute you in the name of our God Jehovah Sabaoth and I decree in the capability of His ability your victory over enemies in Jesus name, amen.

Today's meal is been packed with sustenance to defy your storm and am so certain that the storm will surely obey as we trust in the SAVING GRACE OF JEHOVAH.

In the text read above was a very familiar story of how a Prophet of God lost his children to battle, the chosen nation lost a battle even while they were with the "Ark of God" the question is why did they lost the battle? Of course many of us will agreed to this that for the punishment of Eli sons and the sins of the Israelites, yes you are right in your opinion but that is not where God wants to speak to us today. 1Samuel 2:12-25, 1Samuel 3:11-18 pls read. God wants you to be courageous and be strong in the face of any battle no matter how fierce and stronger it is, FEAR IS A STRONG TOOL THAT WRECK BELIEVER IN THE BATTLE FIELD NO MATTER HOW PREPARED HE IS, ONCE YOU TRADE IT OUT YOU ARE A VICTOR ALWAYS.

The Philistines knew they were in trouble because the "Ark of God" has arrived the midst of their opponent and knowing fully well the mayhem this has caused those who fought them "Israelites" in the past, read 1Samuel 4:7-8 nonetheless, they proceeded in strength of courage to fight and they WON, not just that but captured also the power of the Israelites, read verse 9-11 hear this "9  Philistines, be strong and be men, or you will become slaves to the Hebrews just as they have been slaves to you! Be men and fight!” what a word of encouragement to face the chosen of God! Romans 8:31 this should be your watchword and not to tremble before your STORM.

Like the saying "life is a battle" and so we fight everyday, some we lost and won some yet the truth remains that the fight continues as long as d "arch enemy" Satan has his abode in this earth, c Revelation 12:7-17. But thanks be to our God who is faithful and for this He will always make a way of escape to all that will remember and trust His name for victory c Psalms 22:5.

Lessons to learn:

1. Dare the strength of your enemies to reach your goal even when it is so visible that they are stronger than you, it is already a battle won. 1Samuel 4:8
2. Fear is a reproach to His name as Jehovah Sabaoth.
3. There is need for sanitization in your tent God can not be mocked. 1Samuel 4:4

Above all it is not over until it is over, submit to God in totality of you, His name is a secured place in time of war FEAR NOT HE WILL SAVE YOU. Prover 18:10

Enjoy your victory enemies been defeated death couldn't hold Him down!
