THE WORD OF GOD HAS NO MARGIN FOR FAILURE
“And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome” Acts 23:11 KJVEvery effort was made to kill Paul. But by reason of divine happenings he was not killed. There were some people who took an oath that they would not eat or drink until they kill Paul. But by divine manipulation, a young boy heard when they were plotting against Paul and went to reveal this plot to the officials who now moved Paul ahead of time in order to prevent those people from killing him. It was a divine arrangement that God made based on the Word He had earlier spoken. The Word of God will not fall to the ground. He had spoken that Paul would defend himself in Rome. The Word spoken by God brought about all the challenges. That is telling you that the devil will always fight every Word of God. But God is able to keep you and ensure that His Word comes to pass.The battle is about the Word and the Promise. Persecutions, trials, temptations, and difficulties come for the word’s sake. The more revelation you receive, the more attack you will be under. But as long as you latch on to the Word in faith, God will always come through for you.Faith is the access. Faith is the medium by which we tap into God’s resources. That is why God gave you faith the day you are saved. This faith is supernatural faith. It is not human faith. There is no margin of error with the Word of God. It can never fail.Never build your faith on what you can see, what you can hear, what you can touch, what you can taste or what you can feel. We don’t wait to see before we believe. We believe what God has said and our faith brings forth the manifestation.Further Reading: Joshua 21:43-45, Isaiah 55:8-11, Jeremiah 1:9-12Daily Bible Reading: Morning- Hosea 9-11; Evening- Revelation 3
