The Word Works

"The word of God may not make sense all of the time, but it makes Spirit" – Pastor Godman Akinlabi.

The word of God is the most powerful resource a person can possess. The Christian faith is founded in the written word of God and it abides forever. In the early days, the Bible was the exclusive preserve of the clergy but thanks to several protests by the Protestants, the bible is now available for everybody to access. The bible should be used as a manual for living. In MATT 4:4, Jesus teaches that man must not live by bread alone rather man must depend on the word of God for existence. We ought to feed our spirit even better than we nourish our physical bodies.

Here in Daystar, the Word Works Wonders is not an advertising cliché; it's the core of our church. To maximize the power in the word of God, we have to pay attention to the word, give it first place and accept it as the final authority in our lives. Anything short of that then we are just playing church and soon enough the evidence of an ailing spirit, a spirit starved of the word of God, will manifest as sickness and lack in the physical. The word of God feeds, strengthens and empowers our spirit to overcome the wiles of the devil.

Get a firm grip on the word of God. His word is powerful, prophetic and carries creative ability. It is the surest foundation for life. There is no future in anything – jobs, relationships, location etc. – it's in revelation, the sure word of God to you. Apply the principles of the word to yourself practically and consult the word before making decisions or taking actions.

Finally, pay attention to those things that contend with the word in your life to defeat them. They could be culture, mindsets and emotions, tradition and bounded rationality. Armed with the sure word of God victory is guaranteed!
