Today’s Living Word – Stand Against Oppression

4–6 minutes

God speaks prophecy to His victorious and free family: 

To stand against oppression is a valiant thing. Who would try to oppress another? What would be the reason or the goal? To oppress is to hold down or bear down upon? Is the oppressor a greater power than the oppressed? Is it a permanent state or one that fluctuates with the resistance and awareness of the oppressed? Many of my children are oppressed of the devil, far too many. They are weighed down by heavy burdens of debt, sickness, and fear regarding the future. Fear not, my beloved, for my plan of redemption is at hand.  

I am removing your oppressors from their seats of power and replacing them with those who will hear me and bring justice and an equal measure to balance the scales. No longer will they be tipped to favor evil as they have been. I am cutting off the false and rooting out the evil ones that the enemy has sown among you, those who seek to harm and steal for their master’s gain. He temps and manipulates man to serve his wicked agendas and to control you in any way he can. You are not his property nor are you under his control. Like an annoying insect, he buzzes about and irritates you. Swat him and his lies and eliminate his attacks one by one.  

Stand against oppression, my children, by speaking and living according to my word. I have given you life and liberty so you may enjoy freedom, health and prosperity. When evil men rule, they oppress the weak and steal from all the good and righteous men have built. Your country has been plundered by them for far too long and I am about to stop this thievery in the act. My spotlight of truth is shining on them, and you will see pictures and evidence revealed soon that ties them to every evil deed. Rejoice when the bad actors are hauled away in chains. It’s time to lock up the thieves and murderers and bring true freedom to my family. No longer will they steal your money, health, and joy for I am exposing their treachery on a grand scale. Do not submit to their evil agendas but stand and fight against all they promote. This is not their country, for I have given it to you, my people. Stand in the liberty wherewith Christ has made you free and claim your freedom from tyranny today!

I Samuel 10:18 And said unto the children of Israel, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all kingdoms, and of them that oppressed you:

Jeramiah 50:33 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The children of Israel and the children of Judah were oppressed together: and all that took them captives held them fast; they refused to let them go.

Acts 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

(Webster’s defines Oppression as: a prolonged cruel or unjust treatment or control.) As in a region shattered by oppression and killing. It is the state of being subject to unjust treatment or control. It is mental pressure or distress. 

Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

A Word of Encouragement

Praise God for setting us free from the oppressors who are weighing the faithful down with debt, sickness and and fear regarding the future. Many times in the records of the Word, God has intervened when His people were oppressed. The exit from Egypt comes to mind. Not only did God eliminate many of the evil oppressors when He released death upon all the firstborn who were not covered by the blood of the lamb, but He sent them out with the wealth of Egypt and the health and strength for the journey. We are leaving the old behind, and as we obey the voice of God, we will be blessed with His health, wealth and joy.

An Action Item

We are called to stand against oppression by living the Word of God we know. God is removing the evil doers, and He will need good men and women to pray and also to step up to serve in the positions of power and justice. We are the ones to stand against unjust laws and to refuse to submit to evil agendas and suggestions by any leadership that goes against the truth. We stand in liberty for Christ has already made us FREE!
