DAY 37
REJOICE NOT AGAINST ME
“Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me.” Micah 7:8
Life is full of seasons highs and lows, joy and sorrow, mountain tops and valleys. Every believer must pass through their wilderness experience on the journey to destiny. The Bible declares,
“Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the Lord: look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged.” Isaiah 51:1
Child of God, to be hewn means to be shaped, refined, and molded through pressure and divine chiseling. Abraham, the father of faith, could not walk in full alignment with God until he was shaped and reformed by divine encounters. The process is often painful, but it is necessary for divine manifestation.
The wilderness is God’s spiritual workshop. It is the place where flesh is crucified, pride is broken, and character is mortified. It is a period when your wisdom fails, when connections can’t help, and when your strength is not enough. In that place, only God’s mercy and light can bring you through.
During such times, people may mock you, enemies may rejoice, and even heaven may seem silent,but remember, it is not your end; it is your making. Even our Lord Jesus cried on the cross,
“My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” Psalm 22:2
Yet, through that darkness came the greatest light resurrection glory!
Beloved, though you may be sitting in darkness now, the Lord shall be a light unto you. He will guide your feet into the way of peace and cause your night to turn into day.
“To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.” Luke 1:79
When your season of wilderness is fulfilled and the lesson is learned, God will comfort you and restore your glory. Your speech will carry grace, your presence will carry power, and your testimony will inspire others.
The evidence of the wilderness is visible it either refines or hardens you. But for those who endure it with faith, glory awaits! So, despise the shame, ignore the mockery, and lift your eyes toward the joy set before you.
When your enemies rejoice over your fall, remind them:
“Rejoice not against me, O my enemy, when I fall, I shall arise!”
PRAYERS:
1. Father, thank You for being my light in dark seasons. Even when I fall, I know You will lift me again.
2. Lord Jesus, give me strength to endure my wilderness process without murmuring or losing faith.
3. Holy Spirit, refine my character and purge me of everything that does not glorify You.
4. Father, turn every darkness in my life into light and let my pain produce power.
5. Lord, silence every enemy rejoicing over me let them see Your glory rise upon me.
6. Father, announce me in the same place where I was once mocked and rejected.
7. Lord, teach me to wait patiently in my wilderness until my day of manifestation comes.
DECLARATIONS:
I declare that I shall rise again no fall shall define my destiny.
I declare that my darkness shall turn into divine illumination.
I declare that God is making me, not breaking me.
I declare that my enemies shall witness my restoration and glorify God.
