I once read a word that was quite profound. One I believe relates to many seasons in our life.
The word was… The enemy has been and is attacking the very area God is breathing upon in your life. So be encouraged that great increase and fruitfulness is being released in that part of your life.
As it often is with God, the word came when I needed it most. At the time, I was contending for health. I had begun studying healing more in-depth and was daily reading the word concerning healing. During that time, I experienced attack after attack on my body.
This word, however, encouraged me. It reminded me that the enemy only attacks area where he sees God is working. I knew if I continued my pursuit of healing and wholeness, I would see the fruitfulness God was releasing in my life. And I have.
While these attacks were not life altering, they have made life difficult. Attempting to delay my progress. Some days it felt like I was walking through quicksand.
As I talked about this with a friend about this, one scripture came to mind.
Catch for us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes. (Song of Sol 2:15)
The little foxes come at harvest time. They come for one reason. To spoil the vine. To stop or hinder the harvest. To make you want to quit.
The good news is, if the little foxes are here, so is the harvest!
The better news is…they cannot spoil your harvest. It is sealed in the shed blood of Jesus Christ.
I love that the word I shared said, the enemy is attacking the very areas that God is breathing upon.
Knowing this, I recognize the areas being attacked. Therefore, I can see which areas are being breathed upon by God. I can see which areas are having increase and fruitfulness released to them. That is awesome news, my friend!
How about you? Are there certain areas in your life that seem to be under attack?
It’s the same for you. Whatever areas the enemy seems to be attacking, pay attention. Those areas are marked for increase. They are marked for breakthrough. Your God is breathing upon them today. He is sending forth his angelic hosts to bring increase and fruitfulness. Don’t stop. Keep pressing in.
What an awesome season we are in!
Yes, it is hard at times. However, we are about to experience breakthroughs beyond our imagination. If we hold our confidence steadfast to the end.
We have promises from God. And from His word. We will not stop until we see them manifest in our lives. Every single one of them.
Today, this word has breathed new life into me. I realize why the little foxes are here. They are here because the harvest is here! They are the evidence that God is indeed, breathing on our harvest.
