Psalm 23:5
During a morning prayer walk this week, the Holy
Spirit brought the above Psalm vividly to my mind and admonished me that I must
not become so distracted by all the evil attacks on goodness and godliness
going on in our nation and world that I forget to rejoice in the blessings He
is pouring out "in the presence of my enemies."
To "prepare a table" was to prepare
a feast or banquet for a time of rejoicing and celebration. So, no matter what
kind of enemies surround you today, God is preparing a table for you and there
is nothing they can do about it.
This is also the reason we should be expecting
great revival in the churches of America. Despite the “woke” culture that seems
to be making such inroads into the American culture, God is preparing a table
for His people “in the presence of our enemies.”
Despite the loud, godless voices in the media,
government, and academia, we should expect great revivals to break forth across the land. After all, He has promised to prepare a table for us “in
the presence of our enemies.”
So, while the world is in an uproar, let’s
begin to acknowledge, and act on the fact, that God is powerfully at work on our
behalf. He is preparing a table for us, "in the presence of our enemies."
