A Foolish Act

Sunday 23 April
READ: Exo. 12:32-42.
MORE LESSONS: II Sam. 15:31

Sometimes when God wants to deal with your enemies, He makes them to behave foolishly. Can you imagine that when the Israelites were leaving Egypt permanently, they asked the Egyptians to lend them silver, gold and clothes? The Egyptians were foolish enough to give to the Israelites who were on their way out of Egypt, such as they required. Why did the Egyptians make that kind of foolish decision? Because God was behind it,
And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required.... Exo. 12:36.
The Lord can cause your enemy to make a costly mistake in order to help you. When God wanted to take Esther to the throne, He made Vashti the queen to disobey the king her husband as recorded in Esther 1:12,
But the queen Vashti refused to come at the king's commandment by his chamberlains: therefore was the king very wroth, and his anger burned in him.
This was a foolish act organised by Heaven to make Vashiti lose her position for Esther to take over. As a child of God, God can do anything for you. He can give men in exchange for your life,
Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life Isa. 43:4.
God can take away the throne of your enemy for you to reign in his stead. Never be afraid of any boss that is threatening you as long as you know that your relationship with God is intact and that you discharge your duties as you should.
Believe God for divine intervention. The Lord will cause your enemies to make a costly mistake that will be the stepping stone for your uplifting, in the mighty name of Jesus. Today is a great day for you. For your enemy to act foolishly to your benefit, you must act wisely by remaining committed to pleasing God in all that you think, say or do. As the book of Proverbs says, When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him: Prov.16:7. By this scripture the easiest way to get rid of your enemy and be at peace and prosperity is by making your ways pleasing to the Lord, God will finish the rest. Receive this wisdom today, in the name of Jesus.

Prayer/Action
* Ask God to cause your enemies to make costly mistakes that lead to your uplifting, in Jesus’ name.
* Ask God to confuse all your adversaries so that they will start working for your favour, in Jesus’ name.
