Foxes that spoil

I believe we are in a season where we are facing some giants that challenge our authority and dominion. Too many times we allow the little things in our lives to spoil the miracles that God intended for us to have, especially in our marriages and general relationships!

In Matthew 8:20 we read that Foxes have holes and birds have nests and I asked a simple question…Why? This opened a whole new perspective on this scripture because in the next phrase it states that the Son of Man has NO PLACE! We accommodate:a) Foxes that create holes in our lives and marriage;b) Birds that fly in and nest, using up space and clotting our lives.

We hardly accommodate the Son of Man! We make room for chaos and the worries and concerns we are so boldly told NOT to allow.

Why is it so easy to make room for everything else but when it comes to the things of God we are either too tired, too poor or something! In Judges 15:4 Samson caught foxes and tied them tail to tail. Before we get that drastic we have to do a few things first!We need to firstly Discern the foxes (those little things that cause havoc).

After that we need to tie it down (don’t allow it anymore room in your life). We must come to the point of taking stock of our relationships and decide to address what’s not beneficial or from God. We are making room for too many squatters in our relationships. Fear is squatting illegally. Doubt and unbelief is squatting illegally. Distrust and lies are illegal vagrants making room where they are not allowed to!

If we continue to allow them access and they become truly on fire, they set whole harvest fields alight and burns it to nothing! The harvest of miracles in your life is burnt to nothingness and emptiness. Song of Solomon 2:15 says it’s the foxes that spoil the vineyards of marriage! Protect your marriage; it’s the most precious relationship you’ve got. It reflects the relationship between God and the Church. No more messing around with the sacred trust of our spouses Enough is enough! Stop your extramarital affair….it may seem sweet today but tomorrow the bitter aftertaste of deceit and lies is the only remaining savor we taste!

Make a bold declaration and tell your spouse: I am prepared to deal with the foxes in our marriage! Confront those foxes and deal with them! No more room in my life!
