“..he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt: 15. And was there until the death of Herod…” (Matthew 2: 14-15). That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today. It is instructive to observe that Herod plotted to kill Jesus. He sought to truncate Jesus’ destiny. He sought to scuttle God’s plan concerning Jesus. Herod was an enemy of Jesus’ destiny, and he hatched a plot to ensure that Jesus’ greatness would not see the light of day. Notice that in spite of Herod’s plan to destroy Jesus, Jesus survived. Despite the plan to cut short His life, Jesus’ life wasn’t cut short. Despite Herod’s attempt to abort Jesus’ greatness, Jesus’ greatness remained intact. Jesus survived and escaped, and Herod’s plan became fruitless. Friend, as 2014 is about to end, God says, you will escape every trap of the enemy; every satanic plan to cut short your life and destiny will be fruitless; those who want to pull you down will pull themselves down; the conspiracies against your progress will not succeed; your greatness won’t be buried or truncated. The gates of hell will not prevail over you and yours; the kingdom of darkness will not have the final say on your life; nothing can consume your destiny; no negative wish against you will come to pass; you are untouchable and unreachable to the enemy; the enemy already lost the battle of 2014, and he will lose again in 2015. After plotting evil against Jesus, Herod later died but Jesus remained (and remains) alive. God says, you will live to see the end of all those who plotted evil against you; you will live to see the downfall of those plotting your downfall. Every evil plan against you will backfire on the planners. Any man waiting to destroy you will wait forever, because your life is hid in Christ, and Christ in God. You will survive and escape. Pray With Me: Lord, I will survive and escape from every trap of the enemy, in Jesus’ name! Have A Wonderful Wednesday. Wishing You All A Prosperous New Year!
