And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to
the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an
inheritance among all them which are sanctified (Acts 20:32).
The Word of God is the building block we
need as Christians to shape up our lives and become all that God has planned
for us to be. This is because the Word has inherent ability to produce what it
says. In Joshua 1:8, ever before Joshua could embark on the mission of leading
the Jews into the Promised Land, God instructed him to meditate on the Word
regularly and keep the Word in his mouth. He was to have the Word in his heart
and in his mouth, and be completely taken over by the Word. That way, he would
be careful to do the Word.
This was necessary because God had
premised Joshua’s success on meditating on the Word. If this was true for
Joshua, it’s all the more true for us today as Christians. The Word of God is
what we need to live a successful, prosperous and victorious life. Thus, you
shouldn’t allow any kind of failure in your life! God has given us His Word
that’s able to make us successful, prosperous and victorious. Our
responsibility is to think God’s thoughts; speak and live according to the
Word.
God’s Word is our sure road map to a life
of unending victories. So if as a Christian you’ve been experiencing consistent
failures rather than victories in your life endeavours, what you need do is a
Word-check. It might mean that you’re not living according to God’s Word. Now,
that doesn’t mean you’re necessarily doing something wrong. It does mean
however that there’re some important things you’re not doing. An example could
be proper meditation on the Word; it’s a sure recipe for success. Praise the
Lord!
As we approach the final days of this
month of victories, it’s important that you remain conscious of the fact that
you’ve been born into a life of consistent and continuous victories. Take time
out also to honour the Lord by celebrating all the victories of this special
month as you share your testimonies and experiences of victories on this
platform. God bless you
