Jesus, The Enemies Have Stolen All The Land: Reclaiming God’s Promises For You
In the face of overwhelming adversity, it often feels like everything that once held promise and security has been taken from us. For generations, the Jewish people have faced persecution, loss, and displacement. But throughout the history of Israel, God's promises have remained true. One of the most profound promises in Scripture is that the land belongs to God—and He will not let it slip away. But what happens when it feels like the enemies of God have stolen all the land? How can we reclaim what has been lost?
In the midst of uncertainty, there is hope. Yeshua (Jesus) embodies the fulfillment of God’s promises. Through Him, we can find restoration—not just for the land, but for our hearts, our families, and our future. Let’s explore how God’s Word reassures us that despite the enemies who seem to be in control, God is still sovereign and ready to restore what has been taken.

When the Enemies Steal, God Has a Plan of Restoration
Throughout the Tanakh (the Hebrew Scriptures), God has made it clear that the land belongs to Him and that He will fight for it. When enemies come to steal, destroy, or defile, God's plan of restoration is set in motion. In the past, He has restored the land to His people, and He will continue to do so.
"For the land is Mine; you are but aliens and my tenants." (Leviticus 25:23)
The land ultimately belongs to God. When enemies steal the land, they do not take it from God—they are only taking temporary possession. Ultimately, He will restore what belongs to Him. This is true for the land of Israel, but it is also true for our personal lives. When things feel lost, we can trust that God will return what has been taken, because everything belongs to Him.

God Promises to Fight for His People
When enemies rise against us, it can feel as though we are powerless. But God is always fighting on our behalf. The enemy may seem to have stolen what we cherish, but God promises that He will not leave His people forsaken. Just as He delivered Israel from slavery in Egypt, He will deliver us from the forces that seem to hold us captive.
"The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still." (Exodus 14:14)
The Lord has a history of fighting for His people. The battle is not ours to fight alone. God assures us that He will step in and reclaim what is rightfully ours. In Yeshua, we see the ultimate victory over the enemy. Through His sacrifice and resurrection, Jesus has defeated the power of darkness, making a way for us to experience restoration and peace.

Jesus: The Rebuilder of the Land and the Heart
When Israel faced destruction and exile, God promised that He would one day restore and rebuild His people. Through Yeshua, we see this promise come to fruition. He is not only the spiritual redeemer of Israel but also the one who will ultimately restore all things—physically, spiritually, and emotionally.
"Then they will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations." (Isaiah 61:4)
This prophecy speaks of God's promise to restore the land of Israel, but it also speaks of a deeper, more personal restoration. When enemies come to steal what is rightfully ours—whether it’s our peace, our relationships, or even our dreams—Jesus is the restorer. He rebuilds broken hearts and shattered dreams. He is the one who can redeem what the enemy has stolen from us.

Even when the enemy seems to have taken control, remember that God is sovereign over all things. The land, the resources, the lives of His people—all of it belongs to Him. God has always intended to restore His people to the land, and He will continue to do so. Jesus, the fulfillment of God’s promises, stands as the ultimate guarantee of restoration.
"And I will bring them back from the land of Egypt and gather them from Assyria. I will bring them to Gilead and Lebanon and there will not be room enough for them." (Zechariah 10:10)
God has promised to bring His people back to the land, and in the same way, He promises to bring restoration to every area of our lives. Even when it seems like everything has been taken, God’s Word assures us that He will bring us back, that He will restore what the enemy has tried to take.
