“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life, and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” John 10:27-28 (KJV)
Jesus has already given eternal life unto the believer. Therefore, the believer shall never perish. They have the seal on them. Yes, the devil will attack you because he is an oppressor by nature but he cannot prevail over you.
So, what do I do? Because I have understanding, I am not anxious. I am not afraid. I know that in the end, it will give way. The believer shall never perish! Neither shall any man pluck them out of God’s hand. Nothing will take you out of God’s hands. Not a sickness! Not a disease! Not pain! Not frustration! Not blackmail! Whatever it is, it will never take you out of God’s hands.
When you know that you are always in the hands of God, it puts springs in your feet, and you are able and bold to confront anything that the devil attempts to throw at you. When you are flying on the aeroplane, you are always in His hands. You are not in the hands of the Pilot; you are in the hands of God. When you are doing your business, you are in the hands of God. Whatever you are involved in, you are in the hands of God.
In the book of John 10:29, Jesus declares: “My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man can pluck them out of my Father’s hand”. (KJV). Jesus had confidence in all that God has given to him, that no matter the challenges of life, no one will pluck them. Why? The Father that gave us to him is greater than all. So, no matter the thing, there is no cause for alarm.
And He has sealed us. He did the sealing by Himself. This is not man’s sealing. It is God’s sealing. God has placed the seal of ownership upon you. You are His. Therefore, no one can mess with you. You are protected from all the contaminations of this world. I mean even in the natural.
