Reflection on Every Wicked Agenda
As believers, we live in a world where wicked agendas and evil plans may seem overwhelming. However, the Bible teaches us that God is always watching and intervening. Job 5:12 reminds us that no evil scheme can prevail against God’s will.
Psalm 37:12-13 reinforces this truth:
The wicked plots against the just, and gnashes at him with his teeth. The Lord laughs at him, for He sees that his day is coming.
When we focus on God’s promises, we can rest assured that He sees the intentions of every heart. Wicked agendas may be hidden from our eyes, but they are never hidden from God. He is our protector, working behind the scenes to frustrate the enemy’s plans and shield His children.
What should we do as believers?
- First, we must trust God completely. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” This means surrendering our fears and doubts to Him, knowing that He is in control.
- Second, we should remain prayerful. Ephesians 6:18 calls us to pray at all times, asking God for wisdom and protection. When we seek God through prayer, we invite His power into our lives and situations.
- Lastly, we must choose to walk in righteousness. Wicked agendas cannot stand when we live in alignment with God’s Word. His light shines through us, exposing and dismantling the darkness.
Beloved, trust that God is working for your good, and refuse to be shaken by the schemes of the enemy. Remember, every wicked agenda is powerless against the plans of our Almighty God.
