“And now my head will
be lifted up higher than my haters who are round me: because of this I will
make offerings of joy in his tent; I will make a song, truly I will make a song
of praise to the Lord.” Bible in Basic English- Psalm 27:6
“And now shall mine
head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in
his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto
the LORD.” KJV- Psalm 27:6
God is a righteous
God. He lifts up one person and puts down another. He enjoys raising His Children.
When God decides to bless you or visit you, nobody can stop Him. God wants to
showcase you in the midst of your foes. God can raise you up. It does not
matter how long you have been despised or neglected, God will visit you. God
will lift you up against all oppositions. No matter how deep you are in a pit
or mess, no matter the position of that strong man hindering your promotion at
your work place. God will change your status.
One key to enjoying
God’s promotion in the midst of evil people is to carry His presence. When He
is with you no amount of obstacle can withstand His presence. I have observed
that you don’t have to do anything wrong before people hate you. You don’t have
to be wrong before you are accused of wrongdoing. You can be hated for no
reason. Joseph’s brothers hated him just because his father loved him and
bought him a nice clothe (Gen 37:4). You can be hated for your beauty. You can
be hated for looking nice. A colleague at work can hate you because of your
diligence and begin to plan against you. Joseph had a dream and told his
brothers and he was hated the more (Gen 37:5). You can be hated for your
vision, comportment, attitude or lifestyle. He was just being himself but he
was hated.
Most times if you are
living right like Joseph, you will have enemies. However, the presence of
enemies around you is an opportunity for your rising in life. No matter the
conspiracy, God will set you apart for good. He lifted the head of David and
Joseph in the midst of their enemies. He will lift you up. To receive more
victories and deliverance in the midst of your enemies (within and without)
learn to always be joyful, rejoice in your testimonies and sing praises to the
lord. When you spend time with God, obey Him and live for Him, you will keep rising
until you get to your place in destiny. Rejoice in the Spirit for God will
anoint your head, He will refresh you in the midst of your enemies. Never be
afraid of your enemies and wicked people only fear God. (Psalm 27:1, Luke
12:4-5)
