The Unfailing And Unchangeable Word Of God!

It shall come to pass, Speak, The Word, Unchangeable, Unfailing, Word of God

Psalms 138:2

“I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth; for thou has magnified thy word above all thy name.”

The Word of God is unfailing.  When God speaks whatever He says is done.  He assures us in Isaiah 55:10-11 that “For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater; so shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth; it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.”  Therefore, there is no possibility of the Word of God failing in its purpose.

The word of God is unchangeable.  David also said in Psalms 119:89-91 “For ever, O lord, thy word is settled in heaven.  Thy faithfulness is unto all generations; thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.  They continue this day according to thine ordinances; for all are thy servants.”  When Balaam tried to change the Word that God had spoken over His children Israel he found that he couldn’t reverse the Word of God.  Numbers 23:20 “Behold I have received commandment to bless; and He hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it.”  It didn’t matter what Israel did or didn’t do God’s Word had gone out and the Word was to bless and God’s Word would not return to Him void.

Every single Word  that God has spoken will surely come to pass because His Word once released out of His mouth works to fulfill itself.

Beloved, I say to you today, every single Word that God has spoken to you will surely come to pass and every time you speak the Word of God over your life it will surely come to pass.  The Word of God is unfailing and unchangeable thereby making it unstoppable.  It shall come to pass!

That They May Know

His name is great, Jesus, Jesus is Lord, knowing God, Name of Jesus

Isaiah 37:20
“Now therefore, O Lord our God, save us from his hand that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the Lord, even thou only.”
A person’s name is made great by the life that he lives and the work that he does.  It doesn’t matter if you where born with a great name, somewhere in your blood line someone had to do something great to give you a great name.  The name of Jesus is great because of the life He lived and the work He did for us at Calavary.  Because of His work Philippians 2:9-10 says “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth and things under the earth and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”  All because of the work He did for you and I.
Every time we call on the name of Jesus and the sick are healed, devils are cast out, and people are saved and set free, the name of the Lord is great in that place and the world knows that God is God and Jesus is Lord!
Look at Hezekiah, when Sennacherib sent him a threatening letter, he called on the name of the Lord and the Lord delivered him out of his hand.  Hezekiah said “…save us from this hand that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou are the Lord, even thou only.  In other words that you may be glorified.
God delights in meeting our needs, prospering us and delivering us out of trouble because when He does, His name is made great in that place by us and the world sees that our God is God.   Therefore, be confident in knowing that when you call on the name of Jesus you will not be disappointed or ashamed.  His name is great to save, heal, prosper, and deliver.

Eat And Enjoy!

Jeremiah 29:11
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”

When the children of Israel went into Babylonian captivity the word of the Lord came to them through the prophet Jeremiah to build houses and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them (Jer.29:5).  In other words they were to build and plant before they could eat.

Likewise, when their Fathers where in Egypt they too had to build house and plant vineyards before they could eat.  But when they came out of Egypt to go into the land of promise God told them He was giving them a land that was filled with great and goodly cities, which they didn’t build and houses full of all good things which they didn’t fill and wells they didn’t dig, vineyards and olive trees which they didn’t plant (Num. 6:10-11). They could live in the houses, enjoy the good things and eat till they were full.  In other words, they didn’t have to build or plant before they could eat.

God through Jesus Christ has placed us in a land where we no longer have to build or plant before we eat.  He has done it all.  He has build us houses, and planted us vineyards, and dugged wells for us to drink from, and all we have to do is eat and enjoy.

David said in Psalms 23:1 “The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.”  I think sometimes we separate the first phrase from the second.  We say the Lord is my Shepherd but the I shall not want part we leave to ourselves to fulfill.  No my friends, it’s because the Lord is our Shepherd that we do not want.  David also said “…there is no want to them that fear Him” (Psa. 34:9).

God has given us all things through Christ Jesus.  It’s only when you are captive that you build and plant before you eat.  Jesus has set us free.  Eat and enjoy!

Plowing Through The Winter Of Your Dreams

Proverbs 20:4

“The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.”

During the winter of your dreams when it’s cold, and the ground is hard, when it seems like nothing is happening and you’re never going to see the fulfillment of your desires don’t  give up keep plowing!

Very few things bloom in the winter but if we don’t plow in the winter there be no harvest in the spring.  It’s during those winter days that we need to take the word of God and begin to speak it over our dreams and desires.  Do what God told the prophet Ezekiel to do, speak (Ezk. 37:4).

God is a God of words, He is The Word.  He spoke in the beginning and He’s speaking now.  He never stops speaking and when He speaks He sees what He says.  We are made in the image and likeness of God and when we speak we can see what we say.   Just as  God took nothing and created all that we see and feel with His Word, you can take His Word and speak it over your dreams and desires and watch them come to life before your eyes, just as Ezekiel saw the army of dry bones.

However, the key is in the plowing.  One of Webster’s definitions for plowing is to proceed steadily and laboriously.  In other words don’t give up in the winter of your dreams, when you can’t see anything happening, keep turning the ground over and planting the word of God because harvest is just around the corner.

El Shaddai

Genesis 17:1

“And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.”

Abram was eighty-six years old when Ishmael was born and being at that age I’m sure he was excited to finally have an heir, but Ishmael was not the fulfillment of the covenant that God made with him.  God appeared to Abram when he was ninety-nine years old and says to him that I am the Almighty God or El Shaddai.

When we think of the number ninety-nine most of us think of the end of a thing.  That one more step and it’s over.  You start preparing for the end.  But God came to Abram when he was ninety-nine and told him that He was his El Shaddai.  The word Shaddai comes from the Hebrew word Shad which means breast as in a woman’s breast.  The place where the child receives his nourishment to live.   Whenever the child is hungry or feels lack the child cries for the mother’s breast.  Once upon the mother’s breast the child is quieted and satisfied.

At ninety-nine when Abram thought he had the best that he could have God says to him it’s not over.  I El Shaddai am your supply and as such I will pour into you want you need as you feed upon me.  It was at the time of this revelation that God changed Abram’s name to Abraham and Sarai’s name to Sarah and a year later Issac was born.

Are you at your ninety-nine today? Have given up believing to see the fulfillment of the promise of God in your life? Are you ready to throw in the towel?  See God as your El Shaddai, see Him as the one who is continuously pouring into your life and supplying you with everything you need.   Feed upon His breast, He not only will nourish you but He will restore you and satisfy you with His goodness.  He will never forget His covenant with you.

Celebrate Through The Process!

Deuteronomy 7:22

“And the Lord thy God will put out those nations before thee by little and little; thou mayest not consume them at once, lest the beast of the field increase upon thee.”

Sometimes when God performs a miracle in our lives we can see the manifestation of that miracle all at once but other times there is a process before we can see full manifestation.  The miracle is done but the manifestation is a process.

Some diet programs are  based upon this very principle.  Each week you go and get weighed in and you’re taught to celebrate every inch or every pound lost.   While their process of losing weight may be slower, it results in the clients ability to maintain his or her goal weight but during the process they celebrate.

Likewise as believers we too must remember to celebrate through the process.   The enemy will never let you see how far you’ve come but he’ll always let you see how far you have to go.   Your situation is changing everyday, the miracle has already been done, it’s up to you to celebrate every sight of manifestation.  The manifestations may be small at first but little by little you’ll see change until you have full manifestation.

Don’t let the enemy steal those little changes.  If you can’t walk and you believe for full manifestation of your legs  but all you are beginning to feel is some sensation in your right foot celebrate that manifestation.   Maybe you’re believing God for restoration in your relationship, beforehand you couldn’t stand to hear one another voice but now you’re talking over the phone.   Don’t let the enemy steal that change celebrate it.  While the manifestation may be a process the miracle is done and as you celebrate what you will possess will be what no beast can devour.

Boldly Declare The Goodness Of God

Boldly, Declare, Jesus, Proclaim, Say, Speak, Tell, The Goodness of God

Psalms 31:19

“Oh how great is thy goodness which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!”

When you publicly declare that God will rescue you; God will publicly show his love and goodness upon you before all men.

He did it for Daniel when he was in the lion’s den. Daniel openly declare that God would rescue him from the mouth of the lions and God openly show Nebuchadnezzar his love and goodness  upon Daniel (Dan. 6:16-24).

The more we show God off the more He shows us off.  How do we show God off?  We show Him off by declaring, by saying who He is to us and what He has done for us.  In the face of our enemy we declare His goodness; in the midst of our trials and tribulations we declare His goodness.   David said in Psalms 34:2 “My soul shall make her boast in the Lord; the humble shall hear thereof and be glad.”  When you boast in the goodness of God; the goodness of God will cause you to boast.

Boldly declare today that God is your deliver, your healer your provider.  Boldly declare He will provide whatever it is that you need.  Don’t shrink back because God will never let you be ashamed.   The more you declare Him to the world, the more the world will see Him in you.  The goodness of God  is laid up for those that will run to Him for refuge.

Will You Be Saved Today?

Romans 10:9

“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”

Making Christ the Lord of your life is the greatest decision you will ever make in life. If you haven’t already, step into the greatness that God has for you by making Jesus the Lord of your life today! Just pray this prayer.

Dear Jesus, I believe that you are the Christ the Son of the living God, I believe that you came to this world, you died on the cross for my sins and rose on the third day.  I invite you to come into my life and be Lord of my life.  I thank you for your blood that washes and cleanses me from all my sins in Jesus name I pray. I thank you Jesus that you have come!  Amen.

If you made this decision today let me be the first to say welcome to family of God.  Also let us know  that we may rejoice with you.  God bless you.

Keep Dreaming!

Desires, Dreams, Goals, Plans, success

Genesis 13:17

“Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee.”

The imagination is a wonderful and powerful thing.  God gave us imagination so that we can see the things that He has promised us.

Look at Abraham, he had not yet possessed the land but God told him to look out from from the place where he was north, south, east and west because everything that he saw would one day be his and his descendants (Gen. 13:14-15).  When Abraham look out he could imagine the land filled with his descendants from the north, south east and west.  What was yet to be seen in the natural could clearly be seen in Abraham minds.

When you imagine something in your mind it builds desire in you to possess what you see.  The more you look at it the more you will desire it and scripture tells us that God will give us the desires of our heart (Psa. 37:4).  Therefore, one of the major things the enemy comes to steal from us is our desire.  If he can cause you not to desire something, than he has succeeded in stealing from you.

Don’t allow the enemy to steal your desire.  Visit your dreams do as God told Abraham arise, don’t be lazy in your mind.  Walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for the things you see are yours.

The Goodness Of God

Exodus 33:19
“And He said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will show mercy.”

It is impossible to see the goodness of  God and not be affected by it.   Even though God’s goodness only passed by Moses, Moses was never the same.  He was changed on the inside and outside.

Moses was an hundred and twenty years old  when he died and scripture says “…yet his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated” (Deut. 34:7).  Notice it said his eye not eyes I believe that Moses hadn’t become weak spiritually he still was able to see the goodness of God.  And likewise his natural eyes and strength didn’t fade.  Moses was affected by the goodness of God that passed by him.

Now if Moses could reap the benefits of God’s goodness that only passed by him, how much more are we reaping the benefits of God’s goodness now that He resides in us.  Our eye and eyes  will not go dim and our natural strength is renewed like the eagles.  Even in our old age we will run and not be weary; and we will walk and not faint (Isa. 40:31).  Thank God for His goodness that’s resting in and upon you today!
