YIELD YOURSELF TO GOD’S WORD AND HIS SPIRIT

Luke 1:34-35, 37-38 (NIV)

“How will this be, Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?” The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God. *For no word from God will ever fail.” “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her.

Humanly speaking, the things Mary was being told by the angel of God seemed impossible. There was no way she could give birth to a child without the help of a man, and now she was being told that the child she would give birth to will be the savior of the world.

There are many things in God’s word about you that you may not feel qualified to do or become in your lifetime. You may be feeling this way because you are considering your human capabilities, capacities, and potentials, and all God wants you to do is put your faith in Him. It is not through might or power, but through His Spirit (Zech.4:6-7). By His grace alone, you will do and become everything God has said about you (1Cor.15:10).

Everything God does, He does by His word (John 1:1-3, Heb.11:3) and God’s word and Spirit always work together, (Gen.1:2-3). God’s word is not ordinary. It is alive and it is full of power. It can penetrate into any substance and every area of life and cause great effects, (Heb.4:12). All we have to do is to fill ourselves with God’s word and yield ourselves to it. Christ is the word of God. All scripture testifies of Him (John 5:39-40). Focus on Christ and fill yourself with the revelation of Christ until it takes over your consciousness, (Col.3:16).

Prayer:
O Lord, I submit to your word. I believe what you say about who I am and what I am capable of. Allow your word to rule my life.
