Faces of Flint (Part 2)
Those who have set their faces like flint, determined and unwavering in their pursuit of my Kingdom, will be the ones who repel lies and accusations. They will laugh with me at the enemy’s schemes to thwart my ways. They will stand because they know that they stand in me; they will be confident in the righteousness I have imparted to them, and they will be guilt-free, for they know how far I have removed their sin.
My child, where do you feel the accusations of the enemy? Do not accept these; I have vindicated you already. I call you blameless and holy. Stand firm; let me lift your head. Resist the enemy, and he will flee. Do not look to the right or the left, but set your face like flint, fixed on me and my expanding kingdom.
Activation:
Today’s activation continues with Isaiah 50:8-9. As you read Verse 8, consider what is presented in this verse: “He who vindicates me is near. Who then will bring charges against me? Let us face each other! Who is my accuser? Let him confront me!” Are you being confronted by the accuser, whether in your thoughts or in the actions and words of others? What lies is he throwing at you? Stand firm and rebuke these lies, as you laugh with the Holy Spirit at their absurdity.
Now, as you read Verse 9: “It is the Sovereign Lord who helps me. Who will condemn me?” Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you the vast difference between their power and God’s in the spirit. Picture yourself putting these things behind you and turning your back on them to face Jesus. Allow His mightiness to fill your being.
Romans 8:33-34 (ESV)
Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.
Psalm 2:1-4 (NIV)
Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the LORD and against his anointed, saying, “Let us break their chains and throw off their shackles.” The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.
Isaiah 50: 8-9 (NIV)
He who vindicates me is near. Who then will bring charges against me? Let us face each other! Who is my accuser? Let him confront me! It is the Sovereign LORD who helps me. Who will condemn me? They will all wear out like a garment; the moths will eat them up.
