There’s something deep inside of us that reacts when we’ve been wronged, especially when the enemy steals from us. Whether it’s something physical, emotional, or spiritual, the sense of loss can sting deeply. But here’s the good news: God not only sees every injustice, but He also demands a sevenfold payback from the enemy for everything that’s been stolen.
The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but Jesus came to give us life abundantly. That means everything the enemy has stolen—whether it’s your peace, finances, joy, or even opportunities—must be returned sevenfold. The devil doesn’t get to walk away without paying for what he’s taken. He is a defeated foe, and the Word of God promises that when the thief is caught, he must pay back seven times what he stole (Proverbs 6:31).
In my new book, Vindicated: Keys to Seeing God’s Justice in Every Area of Your Life, I take a deep dive into the spiritual principles that will empower you to see payback in your life.
Standing on God’s Justice
When the enemy robs you, it’s natural to feel anger or frustration at first, but we must remember that vengeance belongs to the Lord and walk in the Spirit rather than react in the flesh. “Vengeance is mine; I will repay, says the Lord” (Romans 12:19). But God’s idea of repayment is not just restoration—He demands restitution.
In God’s economy, the enemy is always required to repay what he stole with interest. The Bible is clear: “If the thief is caught, he must pay sevenfold, though it costs him all the wealth of his house” (Proverbs 6:31). We serve a God of divine retribution, who not only restores but demands that the enemy returns what he’s taken multiplied. That means the enemy is forced to give back to you seven times what he stole.
What Has the Enemy Stolen?
Take a moment and reflect: What has the enemy stolen from you? Your finances? Your health? Your peace of mind? The devil is crafty, and he targets what is valuable to you. But know this—God is not just restoring what’s lost, He’s commanding the enemy to return it sevenfold. Whether it’s time, relationships, or your joy, it’s coming back multiplied in Jesus’ name.
When the enemy comes to steal, don’t accept the loss. Stand your ground. Demand a sevenfold payback! The Word of God backs you up, and you have the authority to call it forth.
Don’t Let the Enemy Get Away With It
The enemy doesn’t get to walk away scot-free. He doesn’t get to leave your life in shambles. God sees, and He will restore when you stand in faith, pray and wait on Him. But don’t just expect restoration—demand retribution. Call forth the sevenfold return in faith.
I want to encourage you today: don’t let the enemy get away with what he’s stolen. Stand on Proverbs 6:31. Forgive the ones who robbed you. Demand sevenfold restitution. You serve a God of justice, a God who vindicates, and a God who ensures the thief pays for what he’s done.
Declare it. Pray for it. Speak it into the atmosphere. Your God will make sure the enemy returns what’s yours—and then some.
It’s time to collect what the enemy owes you. It’s time to see a sevenfold payback.
