The Standard

“So (as the result of the Messiah’s intervention) they shall reverently fear the name of the Lord from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him and put him to flight (for He will come like a rushing stream which the breath of the Lord drives).” Isaiah 59:19 The Amplified Bible

I am so thankful that God has supreme authority over Satan and that He will put him to flight whenever he comes against God’s children. Because of His authority we are able to experience victory when the enemy floods our minds with lies, fear and doubt. Because God’s very breath can drive the enemy away we can trust in Him that Satan will never come any closer to us than what God’s sovereignty will allow. Always remember the standard He has raised against the enemy and know you can place your trust in Him so that you may be able to have peace in all circumstances because of His glory, sovereignty and authority over the enemy.

The enemy may seem to come at us from all sides occasionally but the Spirit of the Lord is able to drive him away like a mighty rushing stream with His very breath!
