PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY
THIS YEAR, GOD’S WORD WILL WORK WONDERS IN YOUR LIFE AND MAKE YOU A LIVING TESTIMONY OF HIS GOODNESS IN THE NAME OF JESUS.
MFM Devotional For Today 2023 MESSAGE:
The power of God’s infallible word is awesome and profound. It is the all-purpose, life-giving and life-changing force that offers solution to all human problems. However, the present day believers have highly under-valued and under-utilised this immensely beneficial divine gift. This is why we shall turn our attention, today, to the excellency of God’s word and encourage believers to take advantage of its numerous life-transforming blessings.
What are the awesome benefits of the word of God that should make us value and cherish it extremely as believers? Here are some of them: (1) God’s word is full of divine blessings granted by God to those who honour His word, keep His testimony and seek Him with their whole hearts – Psalm 119:1-2, Matthew 6:22-24 (2) It offers protection against sin. In Psalm 119: 9, 11, 16 the Bible assures us that we can overcome our battle against sin and dislodge the tempter and accuser by taking heed to God’s word, by hiding it in our hearts and by delighting ourselves in it and not forgetting it. (3) It offers fullness of life. God’s word is the source of Zoe, God’s kind of life that is full, abundant and eternal. (4) It gives believers spiritual perception and invaluable counsel – Psalm 119:17-24, John 10:10. (5) It gives believers strength in sorrows and trials. It has enlivening power and the ability to move you from despair to strength or fortitude – James 1:2-4.
God’s word does even more. (6) It establishes the fear of God and provides the grace to live in conformity with God’s way and will – Psalm 119:33-40, Proverbs 1:7. (7) It saves to the uttermost – Psalm 119:41, 1 Timothy 2:4, 1 Peter 3:15.
Beloved, you can record phenomenal success, groundbreaking achievements, progress with giant strides as well as jaw-dropping testimonies this year if you give God’s word a pre-eminent place in your life. Love it more than your necessary food. Value it more than gold and silver. Let it fill your memory. Make it your map, staff, compass and sword as well as your final authority. Finally, obey God’s commandment in Joshua 1:8 (today’s memory verse). 2024 will be your best year ever, in Jesus’ name.
