ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 24TH JULY 2025.
When King David had been established as king over all Israel in fulfilment of God’s promise concerning him, the Philistines, Israel’s enemies, came to fight him. Prior to this time, David was not a major threat. Though he had reigned for some years in Hebron over a section of Israel, the Philistines were not alarmed.
But as soon as they heard he had become king over Israel, they arose. It is clear that just as the Philistines did not want the nation of God’s people to possess any weapons, so they did not want to have anyone who would provide positive direction for the nation.
Thank God, David defeated them on all occasions! Dear friend, surely the Lord’s promises will be fulfilled in your life. But know that as you rise on the ladder of glory; as you assume new offices and hold appointments that will bring glory to God and advance the course of the gospel or provide deliverance for God’s people, the enemies will come attacking.
They will seek to hold you captive or forcefully take away your joy. The higher you go, the more sophisticated the enemies become. But if you remain hidden in the secret place of the Most High, taking instructions from him daily, all who rise against you will fall before you.
PRAYER: O Lord, let the enemies of your purpose in my life be defeated, in Jesus’ Name, Amen!
