THE WORD IS RELIABLE
‘’Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgements endureth forever.’’ Psalm 119:160 KJV
In the world we live in today, everything is changing fast. The only thing however that has not and is still constant is the word of God. Every other thing will fail but not the word. Remember that God’s word to Moses was: “go forward.” For as long as he heeded to what God said, he had victory. God never starts anything without His Word. Whenever God wants to do anything on the earth, He sends His Word ahead of time and that settles it. The psalmist says in Psalm 119:89 ‘’Forever, O lord, thy word is settled in heaven.’’
That is why you must take a quality decision to stake your life only on the errorless, impregnable and authoritative word of God. One vital decision you must take this year is to always sit at the feet of the Master. As we climax the age, evil will increase and the devil, like a roaring lion is still in the business of looking for those whom he may devour.
Sitting at the feet of the Master should not just be a mere desire, but you must work at it. That is why you should not choose the services to attend or play church. When you skip services for every flimsy reason, you will not be fully equipped to function like you are supposed to. The amount of the word you have determines the amount of revelation that you can function with. When you refuse to feed on the word, you will definitely function like a servant even though you are a son. Take advantage of your position in Christ, and you will always come out victorious.
When next the enemy comes around, confront him with what is written in the word. Remind him that you are a joint heir with Christ. Let him know that the Greater One lives in you and he will flee from you! Beloved, whatever cannot touch Christ cannot touch you!
