Isaiah 54:16-17
Behold, I have created the smith who blows the fire of coals and produces a weapon for its purpose. I have also created the ravager to destroy; no weapon that is fashioned against you shall succeed, and you shall refute every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD and their vindication from me, declares the LORD.”
Every person has an opinion about what a person should be. Most ideas are based on the influences of their environment. When people look through their biased lens, they discover many individuals refuse to come into focus for their convenience.
When we subject ourselves to the agendas of others, we face a unique moment where we must choose to walk in the totality of our inheritance or forfeit it to bow down to unsanctioned pressure.
God has told us that the creative genius behind humanity’s creation was a Heaven’s original. Yet, that intricate design has made decisions on what position they want to take. The ones who choose the righteous path have access to everything necessary to survive the attacks, opinions, and unsolicited conjecture that others may produce.
The righteous must always remember that the prosperity of evil is predicated upon our desire to forfeit our inheritance. Remember that you are a kingdom citizen with access to the covering that will protect you from the attacks of enemies near and far. The moments may come that may rock us to our core, but we will always find ourselves standing tall. Why? This reality is our inheritance from a irrefutable trust established in heavenly places.
