ForevaBlack family, in life there will be times where people will not clap for you. There will be people who are our oppositions, but you should never let it shake you. A piece of information that has stuck with me since I’ve learned it is, “the enemy doesn’t bother what he isn’t threatened by.” When trying to walk in your purpose, sometimes it may seem harder, and you may feel alone. Know that you are never alone and that opposition shows up when you’re in the right position.
The enemy would never waste his time fighting something or someone he doesn’t see as a threat. The enemy sees your potential, but he knows that you may not quite see it yet, but I’ve come to let you know today God has instilled so much insight and purpose inside of you that the enemy is so scared for you to fulfill. One thing about the enemy, he will work through different scenarios and people: strangers, friends, family, co-workers, etc. He will use anyone that is around you to knock you off of course. When you step into your rightfully position that God wants you in—whether you are growing spiritually, pursuing a God-given dream, being a pure light in this world, or even trying to break generational cycles—that's when the opposition comes knocking.
This isn’t new—God's people have always faced opposition. Let’s look at Joseph in the Bible—Joseph was positioned by God, God had FAVOR on Joseph. Because of God’s favor on Jacob, his brothers didn’t like it and wanted to be against him, so they sold him into slavery then Joseph ended up in prison. What I love about this is, we see how powerful God’s favor is; no man can stop what God has for you. In the end, Joseph still rose to his position as second-in-command in Egypt, he saved NATIONS. Joseph’s purpose was HUGE; but that’s the thing... the bigger the position, the heavier the oppositions but God always win in the end.
I’ve said all of this to say, don’t let any opposition make you feel like you’ve lost the position. You’re in the right position, even if it has not fully come into fruition yet. It’s tough right now because the enemy knows you’re close and that you will succeed! God is with you every step of the way. Romans 8:31 “If God is for us, who can be against us?” Remember that always! Don’t despise the opposition. See it as proof that you’re positioned with God’s purpose over your life.
I love you all. Be blessed and most importantly, walk in your God-given purpose!
