Work The Word!

Last night I took some time to exercise my faith and confess the Word. I had to face some difficult issues yesterday, and I knew that before I went to sleep, I needed to strengthen my spirit. So, I took out the Word and reminded the Lord and myself of what He had spoken over my life and the life of my family.

It was David's remembrance of God's Word that helped him when he was facing hardships and trouble. The book of Psalms is full of David's prayers where he clung to God's Word to sustain him.

Jesus was able to endure the temptation of satan by His continued dependence on God's Word. With every situation the devil presented, Jesus was able to overcome it with the Word of God.

It is in God's Word that we are to put our trust. (Proverbs 30:5) It is His Word that never fails. (Isaiah 55:11) His Word will bring life, order, and blessing. (John 6:63)

It is our job to work the Word. Our faith to believe, confess, and meditate on the Word brings about the changes we seek. We have to grab onto what God has spoken over our lives. Whether it's a written Scripture, a Word received during quiet moments of prayer, or a prophetic Word, we have to put our active faith in agreement with it. We can't just let it lie dormant.

What Word of God are you using to activate your blessing? What Word are you standing on in faith? What Scripture are you holding onto that speaks to your situation?

Make sure you are keeping God's Word on your lips!

Verse of the Day: 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. Joshua 1:8
