Bible Reading: Numbers 9-10; Matthew 26:51-75
“Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;” – Hebrews 1:3
The power of God is hidden in His Word.God speaking through the Prophet Isaiah said; “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11. Every Word that is spoken by God has a purpose in your life but the purpose of that Word is unlocked when you believe it.
To believe God’s Word simply means to make it your present day to day consciousness. It has nothing to do with your feelings but everything to do with what you have accepted to be the truth or reality.
The Word of God when received and believed can change, transform and alter even your personality. It makes champions of cowards. The Word of God came to a frightened young man by the name Gideon who hid behind a threshing floor for fear of the Midianites. “And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him, and said unto him, The Lord is with thee, thou mighty man of valour.” Judges 6:12. The Word made him into a mighty man of valour that brought deliverance to Israel as a nation because God’s Word does not speak to us as we are; He always speaks to us based on the things that God has deposited in us that we don’t even yet see about ourselves.
Sometimes, many try to get God to ‘see’ their situation but God is calling them up to see what He is saying. The walk with God and the life of faith is God constantly calling us to see life from His perspective.
There are many voices out there but the voice of God through His Word is what gives you victory in life. Joshua could boldly stand and tell the children of Israel, “There failed not ought of any good thing which the Lord had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.”_ Joshua 21:45.
This is the same thing that happens for you when you believe because the Word of God is the most effective thing in existence.
Allow the Word of God to frame your thoughts and imagination then, you can be sure that all of them will come to pass in your life because the Word always does what the God says it will do in Jesus’ Name.
Prayer: Thank you Father for Your Word that is alive in me in Jesus Name.
