We humans have very limited vision. We have very limited wisdom. We have very limited knowledge. We have very limited power. We cannot see what is somebody else’s heart. We don’t know for sure whom we can trust. We are easily tricked. We usually think we know who our friends are, but sometimes we are betrayed by people whom we would have trusted with our lives. It’s bad enough having to deal with other human beings, but they are not the worst of our problems. Our biggest problem is the enemy of our souls, the father of lies, Satan himself. As the Lord said in John 8:44, “He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”

 

When a person invites Jesus Christ into his heart he is declaring war against Satan and his kingdom. When that person joins God’s family, all necessary resources are made available to him to prevail in spiritual warfare, including God’s unlimited wisdom and His omnipotent power. But a believer must learn to rely on these divine resources and he must learn how to use them. If we rely on our own carnal resources when we are in conflict with other humans, sometimes we may win and sometimes we will lose. If we rely on our own limited understanding and our own human power and carnal resources in our mortal combat with Satan, failure is certain. Satan will outsmart us every time. But Satan will never outsmart God. God knows the thoughts and intentions of every human and every demon. He always knows what to do, and He never loses. If we rely on God’s resources, we will never lose.

 

When Moses lead Israel out of Egypt, following the cloud of God’s direction, it brought them to the edge of the Red Sea. When they saw the powerful Egyptian army closing in on them, it looked like God had lead them right into a trap. Even Moses didn’t understand God’s strategy. He didn’t have to understand. All Moses had to do was trust and obey. The result was the freedom of the nation of Israel and the annihilation of the Egyptian army.

 

Since God’s strategy is always successful, and since God’s power is never defeated, why don’t all Christians rely on God’s resources? Sometimes it is because the believer has never learned how to use the powerful resources which God has made available to us. But often it is because the believer doesn’t want God to direct his paths. The man wants to choose his own path and do what he wants with his own life. God’s unstoppable resources are meant for those who seek their place in God’s great master plan. He who seeks any other purpose is wasting his life, and when he stands before God on judgment day he will have nothing to show for all his labor.
