TOPIC: WONDERS OF GOD’S WORD
TEXT: ISAIAH 55:8-11
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11 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.
MEMORY VERSE: “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).
MESSAGE
God’s word is the final authority on all matters of life in all ages. It is eternally settled in Heaven and cannot be altered or mutilated. God’s word reveals His majesty, might, judgment and justice. It is a dynamic and powerful tool with inexhaustible attributes of wisdom and operations.
Read FAITH IN AN ENVIRONMENT OF FEAR
God’s word is a creative word (Psalm 33:6). It also sustains creation such that anyone who chooses to believe it can be sustained in any circumstance. The word of God has the power to impart new life, bringing life to those that are dead in sin and trespasses.
More so, it releases grace, power and revelation by which believers grow in faith and commitment to Jesus Christ. It polishes our character and refines us to glowing and glory. It is the sword of the Spirit by which Satan can be defeated. It judges and corrects us so that we can remain secured in Christ.
To profit maximally from the Word, you must read, study, meditate, and personally apply the light of revelations. God is faithful to His Word and promise.
QUOTE: Satan has been defeated.
CHALLENGE: Jesus Christ is God’s Word personified.
PRAYER: Oh Lord, establish me in Your Word and Your Word in me.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
