08/11/2025 – Who has the advantage?
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 2: 11 lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices.
Reflection: In your current situation, who has the advantage? Sickness? Sin? The devil? One of the most effective strategies for victory in war is the advantage of the secret weapon. In displaying strength, nations conceal their strategy and the most powerful devices at their command. The reason for this hiding of power is to wait until the precise moment to use them, when it is too late for the enemy to prepare.
The enemy of our souls does not have this advantage. We have the advantage of spiritual discernment. God has exposed all the weapons of the enemy of our souls. We are not ignorant of his devices. The king of Syria found this out when he made war against the people of God. All his plans were revealed to the prophet Elisha before he could accomplish them.
We are God’s people today. God has given us the advantage of the word of God. He has also given us spiritual discernment to fight against the enemy of our souls. We have the divine advantage.
