Enemies Blinded: A Reflection

Enemies blinded teaches believers that God is our protector, even when threats seem real and strong.

In 2 Kings 6:18, Elisha’s servant was afraid when surrounded by enemy soldiers. But God showed him the truth: a greater heavenly army was watching over them.

This means God has power over all our enemies, seen and unseen.

Just as God blinded the enemy army, He can confuse and stop attacks against you today. When you face challenges, remember that God fights for you. He is greater than any problem, fear, or enemy.

In Psalm 34:7, it says,

The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, and delivers them.

This promise supports how our enemies may be blinded, showing God’s protection that surrounds His people, to the extent that when dangers, orchestrated by the enemy, loom, God can arise to our defence.
