Heb.1:13 – But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
Christ has been anointed as He sits at the Father’s right hand waiting for all of His enemies to be put at His feet. We know that this will be fulfilled when Christ returns to this earth, in the meantime the battle rages…The good news is that we have weapons; our weapons are the word of God in our mouth and the anointing of the Holy Spirit that brings destruction upon all of the enemies we encounter in this age. Here are some of those enemies and God’s word that He has given us guaranteeing our victory.
THE ENEMY OF DEATH
1 Cor.25,26,54 – For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
THE ENEMY OF SICKNESS
Luke 13:16
And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?
THE ENEMY OF POVERTY
Gal.3:13 – Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us:
Lk.4:18 – The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor…
THE ENEMY OF OPPRESSION
Lk.4:18 – The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives,A
THE ENEMY OF ADDICTION
Isa.10:27 – And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.
This anointing that was poured out on Jesus in heaven to destroy His enemies is flowing down upon the body of Christ- we call this the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. We are anointed to overcome these enemies bringing the harvest in at the end of the age. This is our moment, its time seize our opportunity.
