DIFFICULTY
Some have had to deal with very difficult situations and people where a
really 'firm hand in a velvet glove' was necessary to put an end to
problem areas or incorrect behaviors . Some situations have been
ongoing and their time is up!
Remember, Love never fails. However, do not be lulled into
unconsciousness while the enemy uses flattery and the appearance of
'still waters' to further his deceptive plans! The first trouble was
only a smokescreen for his real agenda!
Daniel chapter 6 shows clearly how those who were close to King
Darius, those whom he trusted with his life, work and kingdom, had their
own agenda. They managed to deceive him and completely fool him into.
thinking all their well laid plans were for his benefit and the
furthering of his kingdom!
When Darius realized how he had been fooled it was almost too late!
If it were not for the favor of God on Daniel, he would not have reaped
the benefits!
Many surrounded Darius but only one was anointed! All had gifts but
only one had anointing! The true majority always lies in the minority.
I pray that all snares and traps set for you are exposed by the light of HIM who is in you!
Promotion!
We see that those who opposed Daniel 'gathered together' and tried to
find what looked like a 'perfectly legal' way to take him out, but God
not only exposed the lies and deception of their well laid plans, but
also turned the plan on them!
Saul tried to kill David because he had heard about Samuel anointing David to be King over Israel.
OVERDUE PROMOTION
Sometimes we are surrounded by those who seemingly push us into the
'limelight' but are actually planning on taking a portion for
themselves. This is not God's plan. Only HE promotes who HE chooses and
HIS way and timing! We are to be surrendered to the plans of God and
not the plans of man! In due season HE will bring our Promotion without
trouble added to it!
David never harmed Saul and neither did he permit anyone else to,
even though he had opportunity! It is often when we are the closest to
our breakthrough that an opportunity or 'Test' may present itself. We
are never to run before the Lord but trust and wait on HIS timing!
Daniel 6:23 states that he was unharmed because he trusted in his God!
ACCUSATIONS
Even though unfair accusations may come against you, remain faithful to
Gods plan and purpose as your accusers fail in all their attempts and
you still receive promotion! God will frustrate, confuse and shame their
plans!
It is important to note that those who attempted to remove Daniel
from his position were in 'high places' and highly regarded. The
position Daniel held was not of man but a position that was part of Gods
plan! No one will remove you from your 'God ordained' position! HIS
plan will prevail. God knows the hearts of all and the plans against the
upright heart will fail! God promotes those who do not qualify in the
eyes of man and who have no agenda! Those whom HE chooses to promote are
often regarded as Gods rebuke of man's choices. God always has the last
laugh and I see Him laughing now!
1 Corinthians 1:27 New International Version (NIV)27 But God chose the
foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things
of the world to shame the strong.
Daniel did not fit in because he would not compromise and he was a
foreigner. Just because HE has made you different does not mean you are
disqualified! You were made to stand out and. Sometimes HE wants you for
Himself!
Be on the Alert for 'Gatherings,' Accusations, and Enemy traps.
Don't fall into them or give these your attention. Your focus should
remain on HIM. Your promotion is about to show up.
Do not be distracted by the enemy as your promotion comes near. Your
stand of faith will defeat, overrule and silence every voice that has
spoken against you. Your Redeemer fulfills HIS plan, by promoting you!
As you see the enemy plans to remove you from your POSITION, job,
marriage, home, family, business, church, ministry, FAIL before your
eyes, you will step into PROMOTION.
Saul's son Jonathan informed David of his father's plans to kill him.
God's favor prevails despite the position your enemy holds.
Receive PROMOTION! Your POSITION remains secure in HIM.
God Bless
