   Isaiah 54:17 17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the Lord. Weapon: 1) article, vessel, implement, utensil 1a) article, object (general) 1b) utensil, implement, apparatus, vessel 1b1) implement (of hunting or war) to be spent, be used up 1a6) to waste away, be exhausted, fail 1a7) to come to an end, vanish, perish, be destroyed Formed:  (through the squeezing into shape); (compare H3331); to mold into a form; especially as a potter; figuratively to determine (that is, form a resolution) Prosper: To advance, prosper, make progress, succeed, be profitable. To push forward. Condemned: Declare wrong; by implication to disturb, violate: - condemn, make trouble, vex, be (commit, deal, depart, do) wicked (-ly, -ness). Because of the amount of darkness around, discouragement can come in, and situations can start speaking things contrary to the Truth of God for our lives. The enemy starts forming weapons against us like: · Worry · Anxiety · Confusion  · Hopelessness · Depression  * The enemy will try to bate us into arguments or trap us in an offence based off of what someone said. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ *When situations start presenting arguments contrary to truth, we are not to get sucked into the argument; we are called to speak the truth. Speak don’t Strike This is what cost Moses his inheritance in the promise land.    Numbers 20:7-12 7Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 8“Take the rod; you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water; thus you shall bring water for them out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their animals.” 9So Moses took the rod from before the Lord as He commanded him. 10And Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock; and he said to them, “Hear now, you rebels! Must we bring water for you out of this rock?” 11Then Moses lifted his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod; and water came out abundantly, and the congregation and their animals drank.12Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not believe Me, to hallow Me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.”
