Take away the spoil

 

Text: Song of Solomon 2:15 (KJV)

Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes.

As Christians, we have the great opportunity of being fruitful. We are made in God’s image, and this privilege helps us to multiply and bear tender grapes. Unfortunately, the sweetness of grapes calls for attraction from pests, which are destructive animals that attack the juices of the grapes. Matthew 8:20- And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head. As believers we ought to bear much more fruits, but some limitations pose as hindrances. It can either be natural or man-made, but they emerge so as to fight your output.  But you just need to identify those little foxes and deal with it now. We just need the help of God in guiding our vineyard, so that our vineyard does not appear broken or dead. I tell you, my sisters and brothers, it is really amazing to know that we are that vineyard. We need to stay healthy so that our harvest can be fruitful.

Interestingly, for us to enjoy the harvest and the sweetness of the vine, we need to uproot those foxes which aim at spoiling and delaying our sweet product. It says in John 15:2- Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. It may seem like those little attitudes do not matter now, but we need to lay them at God’s feet so that they will not weigh us down while running. We just need to declare the Word of God over those foxes, so DO NOT KEEP QUIET. If you do all these things, you will experience a turnaround and  I pray God will help us, in Jesus name.

PRAYER POINTS:

1. Oh Lord, help me to create an atmosphere with the Holy Spirit that will make the negative attitudes not to survive in Jesus name.

ACTION QUOTE: Do not over look the little foxes before they spoil your tomorrow.
