Isaiah 41:12 NKJV

You shall seek them and not find them— Those who contended with you. Those who war against you Shall be as nothing, As a nonexistent thing.

Isaiah 41:12 NKJV

The Lord reminds everyone that He is the Lord Almighty who created everything and no matter who stands against us for the sake of the gospel will not prevail.

Those who come against us will be no more and will be of non-existent and there will be no trace of them.

All this is because the Lord is the first, the beginning and He is the end. Nothing can overthrow us if we remain in the Great I Am.

As people of God, we will see before our eyes that our enemies will be silenced and their plots will be destroyed. Their works will no longer take effect in any way.

There are a lot of questions in this passage, to bring our minds and our hearts to the reality of WHO GOD IS and who we have become in Him.

God's purpose for the new covenant believers is to establish His kingdom here on earth and to share the saving knowledge of Christ to the entire world.

We are not called to build our secure place for we are already secure in Christ. Therefore, we build the kingdom of God according to all that Christ has established.

No matter how the enemy may scream at our faces and no matter how dark it may look like around us, be of good cheer for we have become the light of the glory of God that no one can put out.

Stand steadfast in the Lord God Almighty by the power of His Spirit and see the enemy vanish away from our sight.

Do we know our God? Do we know what He has done for us? And do we walk by faith and not by sight?

Important questions to ask which will help us to check our foundation whether it is Christ or the flesh. Whether it is God or it is man.

Let us trust God and stand in His might and in His power. Be bold in Him and be bold in the power of His resurrection.

Blessings,

Ps Ambrose
