Psalm 23:5 ‘Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.’

DAILY READING; • Romans 12; 1 Samuel 23-24; Psalm 67

In 1515,, William Tyndale was a young priest who began work on an English translation of the New Testament. This was a very dangerous activity at the time because to translate anything from the Bible into English was a capital offence.
To seek permission for his translation project, Tyndale travelled to London for a meeting with the Bishop of London, Cuthbert Tunstall. Though Tyndale solicited the support of the Bishop, he was refused.
Not to be deterred, in 1524 Tyndale left England and sailed to Germany where he worked on the New Testament translation. After printing the Bibles he arranged for them to be smuggled into England for distribution..
During the next few years 18,000 copies of this Bible were printed and smuggled into England.
However a time came when Tyndale needed.more funds to print improved versions of the Bible.
At this time, the bishop of London was doing everything he could to eradicate Tyndale’s Bibles. And so he arranged with an English merchant to buy up every available edition of the Bibles..
The Bishop bought 6,000 copies which he arranged to be ceremoniously burned at the steps of St Paul’s Cathedral.
As these Bibles were burned, and their flames shot skyward, it seemed indeed Tyndale’s works were being destroyed.
However what the bishop did not know was that by buying up the Bibles he had provided the funds Tyndale was looking for to make his work become better.
Indeed, without meaning to, the bishop of London provided Tyndale the funds for the printing of improved editions of the Bible, which helped to spread the work. Through Tyndale, the English translation of the Bible was made available to the common man and continues to bless the world today.

Sometimes we may worry about how we are going to get through certain situations, but we have to learn to trust in God’s divine provision. God can raise help for you from unexpected quarters. God can use even your enemies to bless you.
Indeed when our focus is on honoring God, whatever the enemy meant for evil, God will keep turning it all around to our advantage.
Where your detractors planned for you to stumble and fall, God will cause you to arise and soar.
While the enemy may think he is cutting you down, he will only end up helping to prune you to grow bigger and better.
Indeed God knows how to turn the tables around in our favour.
Especially as we wait upon the Lord in this season, we must trust that He is at work to turn round every contrary situation in our lives.
Part of the blessings of fasting and praying is experiencing a season of open Heavens. Therefore, we must trust that in this season, God is moving supernaturally in our favour to command blessings for us from even least expected quarters.
Though you may have gone through fire and through water, God is about to bring you into a wealthy place. There is a shift taking place in your circumstances.
Despite the enemy’s attempts to put you down, you will only come out better and stronger, and keep rising higher, because being born of God you are born to overcome the world.
It doesn’t matter how much anyone tries to cut you down, through Christ, you will only keep multiplying. When Pharoah tried to destroy the children of Israel through oppression, the more he persecuted them the more they multiplied.
By destiny we are designed to always triumph through Christ. As you remain faithful and continue to choose to please God, He will prepare a table before you in the presence of your enemies, He will anoint you head with oil and your cup will surely run over with blessings!
Through God’s sufficient grace we will triumph over every trial and certainly emerge victorious over every battle.

PRAYER; Father, I know that right now everything that has been a set-back and a hindrance is about to turn around for my good. It is certainly my season to enjoy open Heavens in all my endeavors in Jesus Name. .
