Obstacles to God's Peace and Presence

Oct 14, 2020

I was praying with a small group of Watchmen [in Montgomery, AL] and as the leader began our prayer time, she took us to Psalm 68 and she began reading Psalm 68 [verses 1-2] that we would come together and begin to praise God through this Psalm. And as she was praying aloud this Psalm, she said, "Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered; Let those also who hate Him flee before Him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away, God; as wax melts before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God." And the moment that that word was prayed, that as God--He melts like wax the enemy and lets the wicked perish at His presence.

The moment that word was spoken, it was a rhema for me. Because what I could see is that God in heaven is looking and He does see our enemies here on earth and He sees what the enemy is doing. And I know that God doesn't like that and that there is a point when God will leave heaven and He will come down here on earth and He will scatter the enemy. He will melt the enemy. He'll drive them away and they'll melt like wax before the fire and they will perish at His presence. And I immediately thought, God, You see our enemy and You are capable of coming and causing our enemies to melt like wax at Your presence.

But I thought too, God, that is so simple. That is so simple. Then what we need to pray, God, is that Your presence will come to earth and that as You're coming to earth, You will take care of our enemies. And when you take care of our enemies, God, that will resolve all the chaos, all the confusion, all the violence, all the hatred that we see going on in our cities throughout our nation. But then I had to stop and ask, well, God, if You can do that and if it's just that simple, then why are You not doing it?
