Enemies Are Conquered

David Eells - 8/26/20

(audio)

Friends, Our enemies are conquered and we enter this promise by faith. Luk 1:67-75  Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel; For he hath visited and wrought redemption for his people,  69  And hath raised up a horn of salvation for us In the house of his servant David (Jesus, and now Jesus in the Man-child David reformers) 70  (As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets that have been from of old),  71  Salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us; (We have already been saved from the wicked enemies because Jesus was cursed for us.) 72  To show mercy towards our fathers, And to remember his holy covenant; (It is His covenant to save us from enemies) 73  The oath which he sware unto Abraham our father,  74  To grant unto us that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies Should serve him without fear, (We were delivered from the hand of the wicked) 75  In holiness and righteousness before him all our days. (We were given his holiness and righteousness which the wicked refuse in the root of bitterness of Esau's seed.)

I received this text a few days ago concerning our enemies.  I know of the natural fulfillment of this text but the Lord was showing me a spiritual fulfimment.  Zec 12:1-9  The burden of the word of Jehovah concerning Israel. Thus saith Jehovah, who stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him:  2  Behold, I will make Jerusalem (The Bride) a cup of reeling unto all the peoples round about, and upon Judah also shall it be in the siege against Jerusalem. (The wicked stagger with hatred for the Bride. The Dragon, shown to be Satan in his world body in Rev 12, has one consuming desire, to devour the Man-child so he can then devour the Woman. Those of his vessels who proclaim to be Christians besiege them for they are of the Dragon.  Just as their forefathers did Jesus, the prophets, and the saints. They consider that they are doing God a favor. I have been amazed since we heard from God years ago of the parallel between the faction in the Church and the faction in the government.  The God of the leftist, communist, anarchist, fornicators, etc shows the same hatred and uses the same slander against the Trump administration.  They are always assured by Satan that they will win because they cheat but they ultimately will lose for all the evidence of their perversion, theft, lies, etc. is against them and all will be revealed.  Rev 12:11-12  And they overcame him [the Dragon] because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony; and they loved not their life even unto death.  12  Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe for the earth and for the sea: because the devil is gone down unto you, having great wrath, knowing that he hath but a short time.) 

3  And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples; all that burden themselves with it shall be sore wounded; and all the nations of the earth shall be gathered together against it. (The wicked hate the Bride for she is a manifestation of all that sinners hate.  She is a manifestation of Jesus who came unto His own and His own received Him not.) 4  In that day, saith Jehovah, I will smite every horse with terror, (The horse represents the strength of the beastly flesh that is harnessed to do man’s/Satans will. They are in terror now because they fear that all of their evil is known and will be prosecuted.  The faction in both camps of the Dragon are launching one last desperate attempt to destroy their enemy but God has foretold their end.  The Red Sea, Sennacherib, Jehoshaphat, the Northern army, is their end.) 

I will smite… his rider with madness (Even the average lost man sees their insanity. They cant stop telling on themselves that they are communist, anarchist, racist, murderers, fornicators, etc.); and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the peoples with blindness. (They will not be able to find a way to defeat us or a way out of their predicament.) 5  And the chieftains of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in Jehovah of hosts their God.  6  In that day will I make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire among wood, and like a flaming torch among sheaves; and they shall devour all the peoples round about, (Just as David did) on the right hand and on the left; and they of Jerusalem shall yet again dwell in their own place, even in Jerusalem. (David conquered unregenerate Jerusalem which was called Jebus. The Jebusites were the old man of the land, the wicked who had to be removed so it would become Jerusalem, the Bride. It is coming to pass by the grace of our God.) 7  Jehovah also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem be not magnified above Judah.  8  In that day shall Jehovah defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem (The Bride): and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of Jehovah before them. (What enemy can win when God is in His people by His Word and Spirit?) 9  And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. (And so it shall be)

Psa 44:2-8  Thou didst drive out the nations with thy hand; But them thou didst plant: Thou didst afflict the peoples; But them thou didst spread abroad.  3  For they gat not the land in possession by their own sword, Neither did their own arm save them; But thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, Because thou wast favorable unto them.  4  Thou art my King, O God: Command deliverance for Jacob.  5  Through thee will we push down our adversaries: Through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.  6  For I will not trust in my bow, Neither shall my sword save me.  7  But thou hast saved us from our adversaries, And hast put them to shame that hate us.  8  In God have we made our boast all the day long, And we will give thanks unto thy name for ever. Selah.

Rom 8:31-37  What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us?  32  He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him freely give us all things?  33  Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth;  34  who is he that condemneth? (Satan, the Dragon, and his body) It is Christ Jesus that died, yea rather, that was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. (And who is mightier than the prayers of Jesus for us?) 35  Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?  36  Even as it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter. (As the flesh of sheep were sacrificed to bring atonement so our self must be sacrificed to make us pure before God. The power by which we do this is that of Jesus’ sacrifice.  He died that we may die to self.)  37  Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

It was said to the Bride, a position that was once forsaken when God’s people went into captivity for their sins, but now God is building her again.  Isa 54:1-17  Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith Jehovah.  2  Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thy habitations; spare not: lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes.  3  For thou shalt spread abroad on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall possess the nations, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.  4  Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth; and the reproach of thy widowhood shalt thou remember no more.  5  For thy Maker is thy husband; Jehovah of hosts is his name: and the Holy One of Israel is thy Redeemer; the God of the whole earth shall he be called.  6  For Jehovah hath called thee as a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, even a wife of youth, when she is cast off, saith thy God.  7  For a small moment have I forsaken thee (As it was with Jesus, “My God, My God, why has thou forsaken me” but then resurrection life came into Him); but with great mercies will I gather thee.  

8  In overflowing wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting lovingkindness will I have mercy on thee, saith Jehovah thy Redeemer.  9  For this is as the waters of Noah unto me (The waters of the Word killed the wicked and saved Noah); for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah shall no more go over the earth, so have I sworn that I will not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.  10  For the mountains may depart, and the hills be removed; but my lovingkindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall my covenant of peace be removed, saith Jehovah that hath mercy on thee.  11  O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will set thy stones in fair colors, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.  12  And I will make thy pinnacles of rubies, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy border of precious stones.  13  And all thy children shall be taught of Jehovah; and great shall be the peace of thy children.  14  In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near thee.  15  Behold, they may gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall because of thee.  16  Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.  17  No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of Jehovah, and their righteousness which is of me, saith Jehovah.

1Co 15:57  but thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58  Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not vain in the Lord. 

Deu 20:4  for Jehovah your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.

2Co 11:13-15  For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, fashioning themselves into apostles of Christ.  14  And no marvel; for even Satan fashioneth himself into an angel of light.  15  It is no great thing therefore if his ministers also fashion themselves as ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works.

2Co 4:1-6  Therefore seeing we have this ministry, even as we obtained mercy, we faint not:  2  but we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by the manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.  3  And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled in them that perish:  4  in whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn upon them.  5  For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.  6  Seeing it is God, that said, Light shall shine out of darkness, who shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

Even when the reprobates hear this text they are unmoved. Rom 1:20-2:11  For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity; that they may be without excuse:  21  because that, knowing God, they glorified him not as God, neither gave thanks; but became vain in their reasonings, and their senseless heart was darkened.  22  Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,  23  and changed the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.  24  Wherefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts unto uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves:  25  for that they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.  26  For this cause God gave them up unto vile passions: for their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature:  27  and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working unseemliness, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was due.  28  And even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up unto a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;  29  being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; whisperers,  30  backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,  31  without understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural affection, unmerciful:  32  who, knowing the ordinance of God, that they that practise such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also consent with them that practise them.  2:1  Wherefore thou art without excuse, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest dost practise the same things.  … 5  but after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up for thyself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;  6  who will render to every man according to his works:  7  to them that by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruption, eternal life:  8  but unto them that are factious, and obey not the truth, but obey unrighteousness, shall be wrath and indignation,  9  tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that worketh evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Greek;  10  but glory and honor and peace to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek:  11  for there is no respect of persons with God.

Eph 6:11-12  Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  12  For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

Luk 10:17-20  And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject unto us in thy name.  18  And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven.  19  Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you.  20  Nevertheless in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.
