91 Days of Victory – Day 49 (2026/04/17)

Why should I fear when trouble comes, when enemies surround me? Many foes put their trust in their wealth or their positions, and they believe because of this power they can control, manipulate and destroy people. This Psalm basically emphasizes the fact that nothing that we have or possess can buy salvation or benefit us in anyway when we die of when Jesus returns. In verse 8 it clearly says that there is no sum of money that can redeem us from death or to live forever. For those the grave will become their eternal home, and hell will be the outcome of a life lived for idols and not for God. Coming back to my initial statement so why should I fear. David wrote that even if I walk through the valley of death I fear not for God is with us. His rod and His staff bring comfort in knowing that our enemies will not have the last say and that God’s Word is unshakable. Faith has a voice but so does fear. We must decide which one will shout the loudest. Which one will dominate the battle in our minds, and will we die or will we live. It is important that we shut out the voices that supports death and seek out the voices that brings life to the dead areas. Just as the Shunammite woman said “It will be well” we must also profess over our lives and the situations we face that it will be well. You cannot take your possessions nor your wealth to the grave, so do not be dismayed when your enemies prosper, but instead bless them and remember all things are possible to those who believe and as we stand on God’s promises we must keep our minds focussed on those promises and not go back to our old ways but continue to seek the kingdom of God above all else. God said if you look for Him with your whole heart, you will find Him. If you continue to believe in the midst of your worst battles, you will see God. Have an awesome day, my friend, your battles is just a minor obstacle in a path towards eternity. Be of good cheer because Jesus has done it all.
