“If you never bump into the devil, you might be going in the same direction as him.”

Main message: When God gives a prophetic promise, opposition often follows; encountering problems doesn’t mean you’re out of God’s will—sometimes opposition is evidence you’re on the right path.

Key points:

• God’s promises are frequently accompanied by persistent problems or attacks.
• Examples: David’s calling met the giant Goliath; Moses’ calling met Pharaoh’s resistance.
• Facing opposition can be a sign you’re moving in God’s intended direction.
• Never encountering resistance may mean you’re aligned with the enemy’s course, not God’s.

Scriptures mentioned: 1 Samuel 17, Exodus
