Acts 26:17 (MEV)
I will deliver you from your people…
The Bible says a person’s enemies can come from their own household. So don’t be surprised when a Judas rises from among your relatives. The psalmist lamented, “If my enemy was insulting me, I could handle it. If someone who hated me was attacking me, I could avoid them. But it was you—my equal, my companion, someone I trusted” (Psalm 55:12-13).
It’s painful when betrayal comes from someone close—a family member, a friend, or someone you thought had your back. God knows this kind of pain. Jesus was betrayed by one of His own disciples, Judas, and still, He fulfilled His purpose.
God will deliver you even from those closest to you who become your enemies. So, don’t be shaken when betrayal strikes. Instead, love them knowing God will rescue you. Your destiny isn’t determined by those who rise against you but by the One who stands with you. Trust our Deliverer, and He will turn every act of betrayal into a setup for your victory.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I decree and declare that betrayal will not shake me or disrupt my destiny. No attack from those close to me can stop God’s plan for my life. Love is my weapon, and the Lord rescues me from every hidden enemy. In the mighty Name of Jesus, every act of betrayal is a stepping stone for my victory. Hallelujah!
