The enemy will always try to stop God’s plan. His forces of evil will always try to interrupt God’s goodness. Hell will always come against Heaven’s objective. However, Hell never wins. Evil will be overcome by good. The enemy is forever defeated by God.

Hell may look like it wins a few rounds, but the war has already been won by the Lord. God is not cornered. He’s not stuck. He’s not worried, stressed or overwhelmed. He forever holds victory in his right hand. Maybe what you’re experiencing right now looks like a win for the enemy, but his defeat is guaranteed. God will turn this around, and he will turn it around BIG TIME!

That’s what you really need to know, my friend. God will turn this around. The things that are against you right now will not always be against you. The things that have overwhelmed you can be under you as you rise up in the power offered to you through Jesus. The tide will turn and what’s been going out will start coming in. Prodigals come home. Walls come down. Chains are broken. Seas are parted. The mouths of lions are sealed. Blind eyes are opened. Dead bones shake.

In our study of Exodus, we last left off with the Israelites as slaves in Egypt, and while under affliction, they grew. The harder things became, the more they grew in number and in strength. We see that no amount of affliction can defeat God’s purposes. We also see that fear causes us to make terrible decisions and become someone we were never created to be.

The new King of Egypt was so fearful of the growing presence of his enslaved Israelites that he did unspeakable things to control them. His fear became a tool for the enemy to use.

Did you know Satan works in your fear? Your fear is a open door that allows the enemy access to your heart and mind. In fear, you make horrible choices. In fear, you say horrible things. In fear, you not only miss God’s plan, but you partner with the enemy’s.

In fear, the King of Egypt partnered with Satan’s plan to wipe out the Israelite population. Here’s what Satan knew – he knew the Messiah would come from the children of Israel, so he wanted to destroy them. All he needed was a fear driven soul to give him an open door to work. The fear driven soul of the King gave the enemy an opportunity to kill God’s deliverer before he was ever born.

BUT THE PLANS OF THE ENEMY NEVER WIN AGAINST GOD. He may try. He may win a few rounds. But the war has already been won through Jesus. Satan tried to stop that, but he was not successful.

The fear-driven demands of the King bring about the order in Exodus 1:22, “Throw every newborn Hebrew boy into the Nile River. But you may let the girls live.”

Imagine being a pregnant woman at this time. Imagine having a newborn baby boy. Imagine knowing they’re coming to take your baby and throw him in the river to drown him.

When you’re facing evil like that, what do you do? You trust God! You trust God to do what only God can do, as you do everything you can do.

Exodus 2 tells us of a couple that got married and she became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She hid him for 3 months. But, as we know, 3 month olds aren’t exactly quiet, so they could no longer hide him. In complete trust of God, the mother places the baby boy in a basket and floats him down the river. A river filled with crocodiles!

And here we see God align the most beautiful unfolding of providential provision for the mom who trusted him. The King’s daughter is downstream bathing in the river and she sees the baby floating in a basket. She rescues the baby. Then, get this – in the way only God can – it all turns around!

The Princess comes to the baby’s mother and says, “Take this baby and nurse him for me.” The princess told the baby’s mother, “I will pay you for your help.” So the woman took her baby home and nursed him.

She was then PAID to lovingly take care of the baby she had to give up.

That’s what God can do in impossible situations. He can turn it all around.

This is not too far gone for God to work. This is not hopeless in the hands of the Lord. He can work here. He can turn all things around and use them for good!
