The Word And You
For with God nothing is ever impossible and
no word from God shall be without power or
impossible of fulfillment (Luke 1:37 AMP).
God’s Word is full of power, and that power
is real and available to us. However, the way
to make contact with that power and use it to your
benefit is walking in the Word. Some people think
that God makes a choice and says, “I want to bless
this person and not the other one. I want to heal this
one and not the other; I want to make this person a
success, and not this other person.” But that’s not the way God is.
John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have
everlasting life.” God loves everybody, including
sinners who don’t know Him. He sent Jesus to die
for everybody. The salvation that Jesus brought is for
everybody. In the mind of God, the whole world has
been saved, but not everybody is experiencing the
vital benefits of salvation. However, with regard to
the salvation of the world, God already did all that’s necessary.
The missing link for many is how to make that
which God has given to them?that which He’s already
done?not only available, but a vital experience in
their personal lives. How can you make contact with
the power He’s made available to you? How do you
make His Word effective in the “now” of your life?
Yes, Jesus died for you, was raised from the dead,
and He’s alive today, but what does that mean to you
personally? How can He be shown and proved to be
alive in your life, in your heart, in your home, and in
your circumstances twenty-four hours a day?
The answer is simple: walk in the Word. Accept
and trust the Word of God in its simplicity. When
you hear or study the Word as it pertains to the new
creation in Christ, personalize it, because that’s God
talking to you. Seize what He’s made available; take
a hold of it, and make it personal to you; arrest and
take possession of the Word. Apprehend it; run with
it; use it; live by it! That’s what God wants you to do
with His Word.
Prayer
Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for your Word that dwells richly
in my heart and for its power to produce a transformation in my
life! My heart and mind are open to receive that personal Word of
power, victory and triumph; I’m yielded to your Word, for it puts
me over and causes me to excel in all that I do, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
