Memorise:
And God said, Let there be light:
and there was light. Genesis 1:3.
Read: Genesis 1:1-3.
1 In the beginning God created the
heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form,
and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God
moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light:
and there was light.
Message
Isaiah 55:10-11 establishes the
wonders- working power of the spoken Word of God. The Word of God can transform
darkness to light (Genesis 1:3). This is why in Mark 10:46-52, when Bartimaeus
cried for recovery of his sight, all Jesus did was speak, and his sight was
restored. Genesis 1:20-22 reveals the fact that the spoken Word of God can
transform emptiness to fullness. At the beginning of creation, the world was
empty and void, but when the spoken Word of God went forth, the world became
full of all sorts of creatures. I prophesy that in the Name of Jesus Christ,
the Son of the Living God, your emptiness shall be transformed to fullness.
Moreover, the spoken Word of God can
bring orderliness to a confused situation. We see this in the story of the
storm that rocked the boat of Jesus and His disciples (Mark 4:35-41). All Jesus
did was to speak peace to the confusion on the sea, and there was calm. This
same spoken Word of God can go into the bowels of the earth to bring the dead
buried there back to life (John 11:39-44). I want to encourage you to identify
genuine prophets of God and never trivialise the word that comes out of their
mouth. In 2 Kings 4:1-7, we read about the word of prophet of God to a poor
widow whose sons were about to be sold into slavery. The moment the man of God
spoke, the multiplying power of God went into the lone bottle of oil in her
hand and the miracle began to happen. Today, as you read this devotional,
standing on the authority of the Word of God, I decree that every emptiness in
your life be filled in Jesus' Name.
Years ago, a man came to us for
prayer. He was distressed because he had become financially bankrupt. After the
prayer, he said that he know he should not come to a man of God empty-handed
but he had nothing to give. As if that was enough, he begged for transport
money back home. I took the little money I had then, gave it to him and said, “This
money will never finish." He said “Amen" and left. Today, I know at
least two of the houses he built after that encounter. My earnest prayer for
you too is that whatever money is in your possession as you are reading this
devotional shall not finish in Jesus' Name. Believe in the spoken Word from the
mouth of Gods prophet, depart from iniquity and you will give testimonies of
power in the Word.
Action Point:
Read aloud all the written
prophecies in today’s devotional, received them by faith and you will
experience the power in the Word.
