How Far Can They Go?

1 Samuel 23:26-28 "Saul went on one side of the mountain while David and his men went on the other side of the mountain. David was hurrying to get away from Saul while Saul and his men were closing in on David and his men to capture them. Then a messenger came to Saul with this news: “Come quickly, because the Philistines have made a raid on the land!” So Saul turned around from pursuing David and went to meet the Philistines. Therefore, they call that place the Rock of Escape."ISV

*Point to ponder on*: It doesn't matter what is pursuing you there is a rock of escape ahead of you that will change the game and lead you into rest.

Anyone truly living is pursuing something but could it be that as people are pursuing whatever it could be, something else is pursuing them. Definitely, I expect you to think of goodness and mercy following you. However, sometimes people who don't want to see you greater than them can be the one pursuing trying to hunt you down. In Africa, especially in my country Nigeria, there are many sides to this. I am talking about both visible and invisible forces. But let us talk about those who never imagined your lifting will emerge now but they are so shocked to see you shining and coming out into limelight and are so envious and jealous trying to get you off the show. Some won't hide their hatred and some might even be so close that you won't know except the LORD reveals such to you. Beloved, I have seen some unimaginable battle between people of the same blood line in this category. Consequently, whichever category the haters fall into, how far can they go. Just as Saul was frustrated and distracted from pursuing David at the rock of escape so the Lord will cause every hater to be distracted with heavy challenges that will make them turn back  like it happened to Saul in Jesus name. Sometimes, haters focus on their enemies because they have lesser issues to deal with. But the Lord will give every hater of your life enough issues that will turn them away from you in Jesus name. They cannot go far because the LORD is with you. They will be discomfited and you will escape every assault against your destiny in Jesus name. God fights your battle but apply the wisdom of David. David did not confront Saul until God provided such opportunity of making Saul vulnerable and defenceless. God will always fight for you and make a way of escape. Don't get worried about the haters they can't go far, you will always escape.

Good morning. Enjoy His favour.

I celebrate you.
