…..”GET THEE BEHIND ME, SATAN: FOR IT IS WRITTEN”


Revelation 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

Job2:5 But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face.

Zachariah 3:1 And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him. {Satan: that is, an adversary} {to...: Heb. to be his adversary}

John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

There was the story of Ayo and Ojo who were in the boarding school. They were put in care of a teacher. In those days, when a student was put in care of a teacher, he or she was in trouble because as far as the teacher was concerned, anything short of first position would not do.

Ayo and Ojo were supposed to look after the duck owned by the teacher, one day, Ayo mistakenly killed a duck. He decided to eat the duck as a way of hiding the mistake. His morning work was to sweep the sitting room, clean the kitchen, wash the plates, warm the soup and dress his master’s children for school before he himself would get ready for school.

The work of Ojo was to make sure that the grass around the house was cut and the flowers were all watered. The first day after Ayo ate the duck, he woke up at 6a.m and woke Ojo up too but Ojo told him that he would wake up by 7a.m and that Ayo should make sure he helped him with his morning work if not, he would tell their master that he had killed a duck.

From then on, Ojo did nothing in the house. Ayo was doing all the work and was growing lean. Sometimes, when they were served their meals, Ojo would eat all the meat. When the teacher noticed that Ayo was getting lean, he asked him what the problem was. Ayo denied having any problem but one day, he could no longer bear it so he went to confess to his master and asked for forgiveness.

The master asked him how long ago it was he killed the duck and he said, “nine months ago.” The master said, “Don’t worry, I have forgiven you.”

So, Ayo slept happily for the first time in nine months. The following morning, Ojo, who did not know that Ayo had sorted himself out, woke him up as usual and said, “Ayo have forgotten that you killed a duck.”

Ayo told him to go ahead and report because he was no longer afraid, having confessed his sins. This is how problem blackmails many people. It just dictates to them how to live their life. Until you carry out a spiritual rebellion against an obstacle, it will continue to blackmail.

Any platform of disgrace the enemy is using to afflict your life, I pray that today is the terminal date in Jesus name.
