" Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.” (John 17:17 NIV)
The Spirit of God uses the Word of God to make us
like the Son of God.
To become like Jesus, we must fill our lives with
his Word.
The Bible says, “Through the Word we are put together and
shaped up
for the tasks God has for us” (2 Timothy 3:17 MSG).
God’s Word is unlike any other word. It is alive.
Jesus said, “The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are
life”
(John 6:63 NASB).
When God speaks, things change. Everything around you
—
all of creation — exists because “God said it.” He spoke it all into
existence.
God’s Word generates life, creates faith, produces
change, frightens the Devil,
causes miracles, heals hurts, builds
character, transforms circumstances,
imparts joy, overcomes adversity,
defeats temptation, infuses hope,
releases power, cleanses our minds,
brings things into being,
and guarantees our future forever!
We cannot
live without the Word of God! Never take it for granted.
You should
consider it as essential to your life as food.
Job said, “I have treasured the words of his mouth
more than
my daily bread” (Job 23:12 NIV).
God’s Word is the spiritual
nourishment you must have to fulfill your purpose.

" All Things Work Together For Good "
Once
upon a time there was a King in a country who was on a tour with his
Ministers, including his royal security and others.
He was taking rest,
under the shade of the mongo tree at the mango garden with his team when
suddenly a stone hit him directly on the forehead.
Immediately he
started bleeding.
The king had no idea who threw the stone at him, but
he did know that he was experiencing an intolerable pain.
The royal
securities left right away to find the person who threw the stone at the
king.
After searching they found only one old lady there, and they
asked if she had thrown any stones recently.
"Yes," she replied. "I
threw a stone at the mango tree." They asked her, "Did you throw any
stone at the king?"
The woman's face showed how terrified she was, so
the guard forcefully told her that she would be punished.
The woman was
arrested and presented before the King.
She trembled with immense fear and prayed that they would not kill her.
She trembled with immense fear and prayed that they would not kill her.
After seeing the
blood flow down the King’s face, she became more upset and felt
hopeless.
"What will happen to me?" she thought.
The king, very calmly
asked her, "Did you throw the stone at me?"
She replied, "Your majesty, I
threw the stone at the mango tree.” Why?" the king asked.
She replied
weeping, "Your majesty, my child has been starving for two days.
I was
collecting food for him but could not find any.
I hoped that when I
threw the stone at the mango tree, a mango would fall so that I could
feed my son.
Your majesty, by mistake the stone hit your forehead and
that is my unknowing mistake."
The woman bowed down before the king
begging pardon for her mistake.
The king was a kind hearted one and
understood the situation very clearly.
He forgave her mistake and
ordered his security personnel not punish her in any way.
Instead of
punishment he said to give her money, food, and return her safely to her
home.
And
we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of
those who love God
and are called according to His purpose for them. Romans 8:28.
