Satan has always strove to steal what belongs to God’s people; he has done this from time immemorial. In fact this has been his stock in trade, as he has no other job than to steal, kill and destroy.
The sufferings of so many today do not emanate from lack of blessings from God, but from the thefts of what God has graciously packaged and dispatched to them from heaven. The devil either confiscates or delays these heavenly packages from reaching their owners since he is bent on frustrating men and women in their relationships with the Almighty. The devil is constantly on the lookout for what to loot, steal or plunder. No wonder the Bible says: “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.” John 10:10
Whenever the devil comes against you, even a hundred times, he is always looking for a way to steal your blessings, kill your joy and destroy your peace.
There is no gainsaying the fact that Satan has stolen a lot of things from the people of God. Many of these people have therefore given up, concluding that their stolen packages can never be recovered again. But I have good news for you. I declare to you today, by the Spirit of the Living God, that recovery is possible. You shall recover what you have lost. The devil has no right to keep what belongs to you that he has stolen.
You can rise up in faith and determine this very moment that you will recover all your goods the devil has stolen from you.
The Bible has given us a challenging example on how to recover all our divine packages that the enemy has either stolen or that were lost in transit between heaven and earth. But let me state that miracles do not come cheap.
The devil will try his best to prevent you from receiving and enjoying what God has given to you. The devil will also attempt to continue sitting on your blessings, unless you challenge him in spiritual warfare and force him to take his hands off your divine packages. This truth is demonstrated in the life of David.
Read 1 Samuel 30:1-6 from your Bible
David and his hundred aides had just suffered human and material loses. The enemy had struck and the invasion had taken such a heavy toll on them that they wept until they had no more power to weep. But they were determined to recover what they had lost.
Weeping does not move the devil, it will also not bring him into submission to surrender what he has stolen from you, it may sound funny or unbelievable, but it is true. Resorting to weeping is a very wrong step to take when you have just suffered the loss of something that is precious to you. Warfare, not weeping, is the only answer and the key to victory.
When you wage war against the enemy in the mighty name of Jesus, you will win, but when you resort to weeping, you will end up being whipped, and a loser. Show me a warrior and I will show you a victor. Show me somebody who weeps when trouble comes, and I will show you a victim.
If you have tried weeping and the devil has refused to budge, why not try warfare?
