RHAPSODY OF REALITIES SUNDAY 3RD DECEMBER.
THE WORD AND YOUR EXPERIENCE
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses (1 Timothy 6:12).
Thereβre people who say they pray and donβt receive answers. Some others lament that they gave so much to God, but never received much in return. Thereβre also those who say, βIβve been speaking the Word over my body for a long time, yet Iβm sick.β If youβve found yourself in a similar situation, hereβs something you should know: Your experience should never affect your confidence in the Word. The Word never fails.
The Word of God is truth, irrespective of what your experiences might be. Just because itβs been several days or months and thereβs still no change as you expect doesnβt mean the Word isnβt working. You must understand that Christian growth and maturity is progressive and thereβs a fight of faith.
Thereβs also the issue of your limited knowledge of the Word. Perhaps you donβt know enough on the subject youβre dealing with. Therefore, what youβre supposed to do is to keep feeding on the Word and exercising your faith. Itβs a training.
If, for example, at a certain time in your life, it took you a while to use your faith to accomplish a certain goal, donβt be discouraged. Rather, grow your faith to the level where it can produce that same result anytime you want it! If it took you three months the first time, tell yourself, βNext time, Iβll get it in a week or even less.β Then, begin to study and meditate on the Word with your new goal in focus.
Thatβs how you train yourself in the Word and in the faith life; you donβt give up! You stand your ground, confident that Godβs Word will prevail over circumstances and put you over all the time.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the veracity of your Word. Irrespective of the adversities I face, I stay on your Word! Every unfavourable situation aligns with my nature as an associate of the God-kind. I keep my eyes on the Word, and I win always, in Jesusβ Name. Amen.
