How to Endure Under Pressure

Reading of the Word Psalm 118

Israel had provoked God in the wilderness over and over again.

Aaron – closet to God, for they were set apart for private services unto God

All who will reverence God, His mercy will endureth forever

(v5)  distress- confinement, disability, trouble, anguish, oppress, to cramp, to harass, anxiety

(V 10-13) what have the devil threaten to take from you, have he threaten to take your life, your children, your finances, your ministry, your job, your marriage. Tell the devil, I come against thee in the name of the Lord and you can’t have my family, my job, my health, etc. I’m reminder of David when he said unto Philistine, thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied. This day will the Lord deliver thee into mind hand, and I will smite thee, and take thy head from thee and I will give the carcasses of the host of the philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beast of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear, for the Battle is the Lord’s and he will give you into our hands.

Someone needs to prophesy right now… this day the Lord will deliver you over into our hands

(V 14 -21) blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Lord

To endure under Pressure

1.       Be thankful unto God

2.       Give God all praises

3.       Come against your enemy in the name of the Lord

4.       Rejoice in the Lord

5.       Stand and put your confidence in the Lord.

6.       Bless his Holy Name

7.       Open your mouth and prophecy tell your enemies that the Lord is going to deliver you, so you tell your enemy where to go.

(v 22-29)

So many areas where the enemy is defeated in this psalm, he defeated in death, in distress, prosperity and rejection.

Psalm 100:4-5 enter into his gates with thanksgiving and into his courts with praise; be thankful unto him and bless his name. For the Lord is Good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endureth to all generations.
