RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY THURSDAY 16TH JANUARY 2025.
In John 8, the Lord Jesus addressed the inability of the Jewish religious leaders to understand His message. He said, “Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word” (John 8:43). To them, His words were mere speeches—sermons that didn’t penetrate their hearts. But to others, it was the living and active Word of the Spirit.
God’s active Word in your spirit, released by you, effects changes. When you want to change hopeless situations, you speak forth His Word. That’s what Paul calls the sword of the Spirit in the opening verse—the spoken, active Word. The “word” is translated from the Greek “Rhema.” It’s also translated “word” in Hebrews 4:12: “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword. “
However, the Word, even though sharper than any two- edged sword, is in its sheath until you speak it. When you utter it, it becomes the sharp cutting edge that demolishes the works of darkness. In Revelation 1:16, the apostle John, referring to Jesus, said, “…out of his mouth went a sharp two edged sword. “ This doesn’t mean a literal sword was protruding from His mouth but that His words were a sharp weapon as they proceeded from His mouth.
The Greek word “stoma” is used for “mouth,” and it refers to the front or edge of a weapon. Your mouth is the front or edge of a weapon. When the Word of God comes out of your mouth, you’re cutting down cancer, you’re cutting down growths, diseases and poverty; you’re discomfiting Satan and the works of darkness. Your mouth is a sword. Use it to cut down the works of the enemy in your city, nation and nations of the world.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the power of your Word in
my mouth. As I utter your Word, situations align with the realities of the glorious life that you’ve ordained for me in Christ. Through my words, I bring healing and health, deliverance, victory and success to my world, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
