Protecting your fruits!

 “……..for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children.” Isaiah 49:25b KJV

The Word of God assures us in our text that God will contend with those who contend with us and save our children. This powerful promise reminds us that God is not passive about the attacks we face—He rises to fight on our behalf. Just as He defended the children of Israel against Pharaoh (Exodus 14:14), God is actively contending with anyone or anything threatening your fruit—whether that be your children, your destiny, your ministry, or the results of your labor. The enemy’s strategy is to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but our God is a mighty defender who will not allow your harvest to be devoured.

Your fruit is precious to God. Remember how He preserved Moses from Pharaoh’s slaughter (Exodus 2), and protected Jesus from Herod’s wrath (Matthew 2:13-15)? In the same way, He will safeguard what concerns you. Do not fight in your own strength—commit your battles to the Lord, for “the battle is not yours, but God's” (2 Chronicles 20:15). Through prayer, faith, and obedience, you invite divine intervention. Stay vigilant, but trust fully in the One who never loses a battle. Your fruit will not be lost, for the Lord your God is both your shield and your exceeding great reward (Genesis 15:1).

Prophetic word: "Your fruit shall not be wasted. The hands that labored shall see the harvest. I, the Lord, have drawn a line around what belongs to you—your children, your destiny, and your increase—and I will be a wall of fire around them (Zechariah 2:5). Where the enemy sought access, I am shutting the door. Where he planned destruction, I am releasing restoration. I contend with the contender, and I war against the devourer. No longer shall your joy be stolen, your seed be scattered, or your testimony delayed. Watch and see—what you thought was lost will spring forth again. For I am the Lord who saves, delivers, and restores," says the Lord your Redeemer (Joel 2:25, Isaiah 43:19).

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You because You are my Defender and the Keeper of all that concerns me. According to Your Word in Isaiah 49:25, You contend with those who contend with me and save my children. Lord, I bring before You every area of my life where the enemy has tried to steal my fruit—my children, my calling, my peace, my progress, and my testimony. Arise, O Lord, and scatter every adversary (Psalm 68:1). Let every plan of the enemy to gain access into my life or lineage be overturned by the blood of Jesus. Surround me with Your fire, hedge me in with Your angels, and let no weapon formed against me prosper (Isaiah 54:17). I surrender all my battles to You, and I declare that I will not lose what You have given me. Thank You for restoring, protecting, and multiplying my fruits in Jesus' mighty name. Amen.
