Seeds Of Destiny For Today 2024 MESSAGE:

Our anchor Scripture introduces us to Elijah, a Tishbite and an inhabitant of Gilead. One day, he boldly declared to Ahab: As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word. 1Kings 17:1. What audacity! Elijah was a fearless man who could stand before the king of his nation and make authoritative decrees because of his unwavering stand with God. A stand with God means having a firm and consistent relationship with God. Elijah had this level of relationship with God. His boldness to confront Ahab and his authority over demonic powers were rooted in his right standing with God. He lived without guilt or fear because he maintained integrity and godliness. No force on earth or in the spiritual realm dared challenge Elijah in his time. His audacity to confront kings and demonic powers was rooted in his uprightness and godly lifestyle. Elijah’s life demonstrated the fact that those who live uprightly can challenge and overcome any evil authority or demonic power. Righteous living silences the forces of darkness.

On the other hand, the guilt of sin weakens people, making them timid and fearful before the devil and his agents. Elijah was different. By the authority of righteousness, he not only challenged Ahab but also destroyed the prophets of Baal. His integrity and right standing with God gave him the audacity to confront the enemy without fear. Here are questions for your reflection: How strong is your stand with God? How bold are you in confronting forces of darkness? Do you have the integrity required to challenge and silence the forces of evil in your generation? Beloved, make up your mind to clothe yourself with the garment of righteousness. Walk uprightly before God, and you, too, will carry the audacity to confront and overcome any power of darkness.

Remember this: Righteous living silences the forces of darkness.
