He Will Take Another

Time doesn’t really make things better; what happens IN time is what has the power to change the course of actions.

So, if the enemy has stolen from your life, marriage, family, and career last year, he will come to take another this year. Don’t think that the passage of time from 2024 to 2025 will stop him from taking another. He will come for another!

“Then he killed James the brother of John with the sword. And because he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to seize Peter also. Now it was during the Days of Unleavened Bread.” Acts 12‬:2‬-3 [NKJV]‬‬

Herod had killed James, and you would think that was enough and that time would make him stop. It didn’t. When he was done with James, he went for Peter! And had he been able to deal with Peter, he would have gone for another. And then another. And another… until there was none left.

“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy…” John 10‬:10 [NKJV]‬‬

But the church stopped that from happening—they stopped the enemy from taking another. How?

“Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him. Acts 12‬:5 [KJV]‬‬

Prayer was made without ceasing. What changed the narrative was what the church did in time—they made constant prayers.

In this season, things will spiral into more mess if you don’t step in and stop the flow. The enemy will take another if you don’t step in and stop the flow. More things will go wrong in your marriage if you don’t step in and stop the flow. Your life will get worse if you don’t arise and stop the flow.

It’s that year that we arise and declare, “No more!”

Let us pray.
