Morning Devotional For Monday 2nd April - Edoman - 04-02-2018
Rhapsody of Realities.
No Word From God Is Void Of Power.
Monday, April 2nd .
Pastor Chris
_*For with God nothing shall be impossible (Luke 1:37).*_
Our opening verse has a greater and far more profound meaning than how the King James translation puts it. What the verse really means is captured in the American Standard Version. It says, _*“For no word from God shall be void of power”;*_ that’s coming from the actual Greek rendering.
When someone gives you a piece of information, and you want to report it, you’d probably say, “He told me something,” not, “He told me words,” even though he spoke words to you. In the same way, if you made a statement and someone wants to know what you just said, in Greek, it’d be, “What ‘thing’ did you say?”
This perhaps explains why the translators had difficulty rendering Luke 1:37 accurately. Words are things. Every time God speaks, anything He says is loaded with power. His words are never empty. That’s why when His Word comes to you, you must take a hold of it and act upon it. God’s Word has in it the power to produce in and for you the message it carries; it has the power to translate the message into reality.
Therefore, your response to the Word at all times should be like Mary’s: _*“…be it unto me according to thy word...”*_ (Luke 1:38). Mary trusted the Word, the message that the angel brought to her; she believed and responded, and it worked. Your response to the Word is important. No Word from God is void of power, yes! But that power is activated by your response.
For example, the Lord told us at the beginning of the year that it’s “our year of the supernatural”; the Word has gone out in the spirit-realm. Your responsibility is to take a hold of it and say, “I’m going to experience and manifest the supernatural, like never before,” because _*“...he hath said…So that we may boldly say…”*_ (Hebrews 13:5-6); that’s the principle! That’s how you activate the power of the Word and make it living and active in your life.
*PRAYER*
*Dear Father, thank you for your Word, which is my sure and firm foundation; upon it I rest secure and immovable, strengthened, rooted and grounded. I hold fast to your Word, for it’s absolutely trustworthy and established in my life. Thank you, for the reality of your ever-dependable Word in my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.*
*FURTHER STUDY:* *||* *Isaiah 55:10-11* For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 11 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. *||*
*||* *Acts 20:32* And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified. *||*
*||* *Mark 11:23* For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. *||*

I affirm that life is not a mystery to me, because as I meditate on the Word, the Spirit of God unveils spiritual realities to me, enlightening the eyes of my understanding and guiding me into all truth. I refuse to live on the dark side of life; for the true light that lightens every man’s world has shone in my heart. The Word of God is in my heart and in my mouth, prevailing against adverse circumstances, and producing what it talks about in my spirit, soul, and body. The Lord has given me rest on every side; therefore, I have ceased from all struggles. This is my month of influence, and the Lord has made me an influence on the face of the earth. Everywhere I go and in everything I do, I manifest God’s power; work miracles as I live in and through the power of the Holy Spirit and the Word. Today, and always, I display the wonderful deeds and perfections of Him who has called me out of darkness into glory and virtue! Hallelujah! The wisdom of God is in my heart and in my mouth today! God’s Word is as fire shut up in my bones; and as I speak it forth, I dissolve doubts and bring forth divine direction to men. Glory to God. Hallelujah! -SEE VIDEOS-
