When tongues rises against the servants of the Lord, they shall be condemned. When the weapon is formed against the children of God, it shall not prosper. The book of James talks about the tongue being a deadly weapon.
James 3
…7All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and creatures of the sea are being tamed and have been tamed by man, 8but no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. 9With the tongue we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God’s likeness.…
The tongue is a restless evil and cannot be tamed by men! The Holyghost is a restrainer and we must allow him to tame our tongues! When a person judge the servants of God wrongfully, they have the ability to condemn that tongue in judgement. God will put those that gossip, mock, slander and harass the child of God to shame.
Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish. Isaiah 41:11
It is God that rises up and vindicates his people. His children need not worry when the enemy comes against them in any way. (Romans 12:19)
Remember: Just because the wicked is condemning and attacking the righteous does not mean that God is condemning and attacking his righteous that are doing what he told them to do. Know today that there is a grave difference between the two.
Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake. Isaiah 54:17
The bible says, those that gather against thee shall fall for thy sake. Just as ancient Jerusalem was assured by God that any weapons formed against them would be ineffective, God is reassuring the church today that any weapons being formed against the righteous will be ineffective. We have to believe that and let God vindicate and respond on our behalf.
Know what your heritage is as a child of God. We're not called to lay down and be doormats and wimps when the devil attacks us. We have been given the weapons of our warfare which are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds: casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God and bringing every thought captive to the obedience of Christ! Knowing who you are as a child of God and what you rights are as his children helps you to navigate in this life.
