1 Samuel 1:8-20
Devotional Verse – (V. 18) “And
she said,"Let your maidservant find favor in your sight." So the woman
went her way and ate, and her face was no longer sad”(V. 18)
The
word of God is powerful and is able to destroy any yoke of the devil.
The word of God is not mere word like that of most men. They are words
that can be carried out by the unseen forces and backed up by the Spirit
of the Lord. The forces of the angels of God are always waiting to
carry out the word of God (Psalms 103:20). The Bible says the word of
God is powerful, it is sharper than a two edged sword (Hebrews 4:12).
The word of God will always prosper in the mouth of a true servant of
God. It will prosper wherever it is sent (Isaiah 55:11).
The
word of God told us about the story of Hannah. She was a barren woman
mocked by other women. Hannah was waiting on the Lord to receive a word
from God. The man of God spoke into her life the word of life and the
word prospered in her (Hebrews 4:2). Her bareness was terminated. Her
shame was rolled away. Whatever was wrong either in her body or that of
her husband was readjusted. And her womb was ready to host and birth a
ruler.
Friend, when an
anointed and righteous man speaks by the spirit of the Lord, power is
released. There are people God has given the grace to always speak the
word (Psalms 68:11). This is because of their closeness in fellowship
with the word of life. Don’t join anyone to mock the word of God or the
servant of God. Then you will always prosper in Jesus name (2 Chronicles
20:20). Peace!
Prayer: Lord, speak your word into my situation
“THE WORD OF GOD IS A CREATIVE FORCE”
