Hidden
With the Everlasting Arms, In a Secure Place, from Spiritual Dogs
and Serpents
These
words came unto me,
I
am your secure place. My name is a tower that is strong and cannot
be penetrated by evil. I am your Everlasting Arms, a refuge from
every storm and every force forged against you. I am a strong
city, not a place that can be entered at the will of your enemies.
Those who have entered the strong city of salvation are supplied
with weapons that are not carnal but weapons that are mighty through
me. These weapons are mighty to the pulling down of strongholds,
the casting down of imaginations, the bringing into captivity
every thought into my obedience. Allow not your thoughts to run
to shelters designed by your enemies. The refuge of God is not
as the shelters designed by man. Your enemies are not human enemies,
but your true enemies are spirits without bodies. Your enemies
are principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of this world,
and spiritual wickedness in high places. These enemies cannot
be fended against using carnal methods of defense, but these enemies
can only be defended against by my provision. Think not that you
shall escape the pursuing enemies of the darkness by running to
man's shelters. They penetrate all things designed by man. The
spiritual dogs are not stymied by a man-made ladder. The spiritual
serpents are not cut away by man-made knives. There is no man-made
defense against your enemies. I am your only refuge, your only
city of refuge. I am the Eternal God, your help and your safety.
I am your shield, and only my sword is excellent in battle. I
cause you to tread upon the high places of your enemies and triumph
through praise.
