In Christ, we are free, whole, delivered and redeemed. That includes from COVID-19. Psalm 91:3 says, “Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.” Noisome pestilence means “wicked plague.” It is anything that is toxic, injurious, noxious or hurtful. Shout out loud, “I am redeemed from COVID-19!” Commence Firing! How do we attack COVID-19? We act on Mark 11:23, which says, “For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.” We speak to our bodies and take authority over them. We make sure that the words we speak are filled with life and power from God’s WORD. We recognize that life or death is in the words we speak (Proverbs 18:21), and we respond accordingly. No Weapon Will Prosper Against Us We may be in this world, but we are certainly not of it. We have been delivered from the kingdom of darkness and have been translated into the kingdom of God’s dear Son (Colossians 1:13). That is not a promise in store for us when we go to heaven. It is available to us right now here on earth. Isaiah 54:17 is a scripture that Kenneth and Gloria Copeland have been standing on since the inception of their ministry in 1967. “No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.” No weapon—including COVID-19—will ever prosper against us. We receive this promise as our inheritance as servants of The LORD. Resist the Enemy Don’t let the devil push you around. Don’t allow him to intimidate you. James 4:7, AMPC, says, “So be subject to God. Resist the devil [stand firm against him], and he will flee from you.” One translation says he will run from you in stark terror. I will conclude this article the same way Paul did in Ephesians 6:10-14 ("AMPC"). In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides]. Put on God’s whole armor [the armor of a heavy-armed soldier which God supplies], that you may be able successfully to stand up against [all] the strategies and the deceits of the devil. For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere. Therefore put on God’s complete armor, that you may be able to resist and stand your ground on the evil day [of danger], and, having done all [the crisis demands], to stand [firmly in your place]. Stand therefore [hold your ground]. Watch My Sermon On Sunday, Sept. 5, I preached a message with the same title as this article, “Enough Is Enough!” Afterward, my wife, Terri, and I led the congregation in a faith confession from Pastor Keith Moore on “101 Things God Said About Healing.” We then received Communion together. I encourage you to go online to our website at emic.org and watch that service with your family. I believe it will help you know how to stand in faith against COVID, and any other attack of the enemy. You can find the message by going to kcm.org/enoughisenough As you gather your family this Christmas, declare: “Enough is enough!” over any attack you may be facing. Rise up and fight the good fight of faith! V George Pearsons is CEO of Kenneth Copeland Ministries and senior pastor of Eagle Mountain International Church, located on the grounds of KCM.
