Evil has a way of raising its ugly head and attacking unexpectedly. The purpose of such an attack is to prevent its victims from completing their goals. Many people have had their plans disrupted due to some unexpected changes that occurred.
Such unexpected changes are financial problems, loss of personal property, loss of income, broken relationships, divorce, sickness, accidents, bodily injury, and others. Evil causes harm, injuries, death and destruction. It is a universal spiritual force that man cannot defeat.
When evil attack, it is with a force that is meant to destroy. The venomous attack is deadly. In order to survive such an attack one must find a way to avoid focusing on their injury.
Being that, evil is supernatural, it is impossible to fight against, using any method. Therefore, we seek help from God, through prayer. This is when we have to work hard to focus on God. The injury from the attack will challenge its victim’s mind, and body, to prevent them from focusing on God, because the power of God is greater and is the only weapon that can defeat evil.
To move the hand of God, to fight for you against an evil attack, you must be focused on him; persistent, steadfast, determined and constantly in prayer. This is the only way to survive victoriously.
Biblical Event: When Evil Attack
Acts 28:3-6 (K.J.V)
And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened, on his hand. And when the Barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.
Acts 28:3-6 (K.J.V)
And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened, on his hand. And when the Barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.
And he shook off the beast into the fire and felt no harm. Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.
We can shake off the effects of the things that attack us as Paul did, if we stay focused on our goal. Paul wasn't guilty of any wrongdoing. yet, those who didn't know him, accused him of having committed a crime. Note how God came to Paul's defense, and proved to those who lied on an innocent man, to be ignorant and was not in a position to judge; God defeated the purpose of the enemy of evil, and destroyed his position. He gave Paul the victory! God will do the same for us. Stay focused on God.
