Are You Being Oppressed?
“The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.” Psalm 103:6 (KJV)
Knowing that you are under oppression is the beginning of your liberty. Identifying the source of your oppression is vital to your liberty. It is not uncommon to view many oppressions as coming from the devil and his demons (Acts 10:38). It is easier to deal with oppression when it is identified as coming from your own actions; what you need to do is to change the course of your actions and you will walk in liberty. Dear beloved, as said earlier, many oppressions come from the enemy, and he will try to stir up anger, sorrow, or worry in you to think that God doesn’t care about you (Ephesians 4:26–27, Matthew 6:25–32)). If you become angry at God, there is no way you will ever be grateful to Him. You may not even pray as you want to, and the enemy will make your situation worse. Beloved, when you sense oppression or afflictions in any aspect of your life, take them up in prayer and the Holy Spirit will lead you to the source of the oppression; if it as a result of your own actions, then ask God to forgive you, lead you, and you will be fine (Philippians 4:6). But if it is the devil and his demons in there, stand and resist them steadfastly every day and they will disappear (James 4:7). Indeed, God will work out His righteousness in you and judge your oppressors for you to walk in victory. Hallelujah! You are an overcomer!
Prayer Point: My dear heavenly Father, thank You for assuring me that You will work out Your righteousness in me and judge my oppressors. Please lead me to do my part by making prayer my lifestyle and praying every day, even if I don’t feel like praying. Please guide me also to take the right actions in order not to invite oppression into my life, in Jesus’ name. Amen!
