OUR LORD WHO LIBERATES HIS PEOPLE FROM THE OPPRESSOR.

Isaiah chapter 19 verses 3 - 4 says this;

The Egyptians will lose heart, and I will bring their plans to nothing; they will consult the idols and the spirits of the dead, the mediums and the spiritists.

I will hand the Egyptians over to the power of a cruel master, and a fierce king will rule over them,” declares the Lord, the Lord Almighty.

The Egyptians in this passage are stand-ins for a global oppressor of God's people. Having undertaken to gain total control over the affairs of all men, the Egyptians meet blistering opposition from the Lord as He rises to defend His people.

As the text reveals, the oppressors, shocked that their plans are disrupted and reversed, become disheartened.

They try to come to grips with the overwhelming supernatural conter-actions to their activities and  they resort to consulting idols and spirits of the dead using mediums and spiritists so as to receive insight into how to regain the upper hand in achieving their ambitions.

All the while, the organization  of darkness will descend into an internecine civil war and their resources will dry up leaving them scrambling to hold the operation together.

As their resolve falters, their organization will be given into the hands of a fierce and cruel  master who will assert control over their ranks using brutal retribution and intimidation tactics.  The oppressive power of Egypt will itself be placed under extreme oppression by its leaders and it will disintegrate under the pressure.

Bless our Lord who delivers us and counteracts those who try to crush us.

Amen.
