READ YOUR RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. THE WONDER OF HIS WORD - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME. SATURDAY, AUGUST 6TH, 2016.
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).
It
would seem paradoxical to think that some people who go to church don’t have
time to listen to the Word. Some of them love the music; they enjoy the music
ministrations, after which they leave the church service. They don’t wait for
the message, because they have no value for the Word.
The
Word of God is too important. To value the Word is to value Jesus, for Jesus is
the living Word. The Bible says, “The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor
a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the
gathering of the people be” (Genesis 49:10). When the Word of God is taught in
church, it’s not only so we can learn it or just for us to believe and act upon
it, but it’s also for the Word to reproduce itself in us. It’s the greatest
benefit we derive from the Word of God. Hallelujah!
As
you listen to, and believe the Word, the creative power therein comes into
effect and transforms your life. That’s the mystery of the spoken Word! The
ministration of God’s Word produces in you what it talks about. God’s Word has
the divine power to do what it says. It’s different from man’s words. Anyone
can say anything, but when it’s the Word of God, it has the power to affect our
human spirits. There’s a miracle power about it that works.
Cherish
the Word. Let it be what you delight in the most whenever you’re in church. As
you receive the Word, it has the potentiality and capacity to make you what it
talks about. That’s the wonder of God’s Word.
PRAYER:
Dear Father, I thank you for the wonder-working power of your Word; it heals the sick and raises the dead. The Word works in and for me always, producing the results of what it talks about, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Joshua
1:8(KJV)
This
book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate
therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is
written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou
shalt have good success.
Hebrews
4:12(KJV)
For
the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword,
piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and
marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
