SPEAKING
THE WORD
Hebrew 4:8-12
Devotional:- “For the
word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword,
piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and
is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart” (V. 12) NKJV.
Children of God
have to come to an understanding of the power of the word of God. Many of us
carry the bible in our hands without knowing the power in it. It is like a
powerful weapon in the hands of a slothful or weak person, or a living
instrument in the hands of a dead man. So, the word of God could be powerless
if people lack understanding (Hosea 4:6). That Bible in your hands is the
strongest weapon that heaven and earth have and recognize (Jeremiah 23:29). It
contains the words spoken by God.
Don’t forget that
the word of God creates the world and it has not lost its value and power (John
1:1-3). It is jealously guided by the Holy Spirit even when men are translating
it. So, it can recreate your life, heal your diseases, and change your
situation for good. You need to know that the Bible is the spoken word of God
and since the time it has been spoken, it has remained alive and dynamic
(Isaiah 55:8). It is as you take it that you will find the assurance of faith
that will give you rest (Romans 10:17). If anyone will receive it to himself by
studying and meditating in it, the word will enter him and his mouth will be
full of it to change life and situations.
The word is
referred to in Ephesians 6:17 as the sword of the Spirit. Always take it by
studying it daily. So, when a situation confronts you, speak exactly what the
word says. When you don’t doubt it you will see the result God saw, because the
word is still alive. When Jesus was faced with the devil, He overcame by the
word. “It is written” (Luke 4:8). Any time the devil shows up, face him with the
scripture. He will flee out of your life. Make your voice that of the word, and
the angels of God will execute it (Psalm 103:20). Don’t watch sicknesses and
sorrow destroy your life and family. The word is your sword. It's your
incantation. Take it, fight with it, and win.
PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO BE LOADED DAILY WITH
YOUR WORD.
“YOUR MOUTH
IS THE WEAPON TO RELEASE THE WORD FOR FURTHER MANIFESTATION”
