Jeremiah 23:29 “Is not my word like as a fire? saith the Lord; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?”

DAILY READING – John 19:16-42; 2 Chronicles 30; Psalm 86

Oscar Cervantes is a well-known minister whose prison ministry has positively impacted many lives.
He, himself was an ex-convict, who had been jailed 17 times for brutal crimes.
Oscar began getting into trouble from his childhood and grew worse as he got older. Despite various punishments, Oscar remained incorrigible and Prison psychiatrists eventually declared he was beyond help. His case was seen as hopeless and he appeared doomed to spend the rest of his life in prison.
But when it seemed nothing could change him, an encounter with Christ dramatically transformed him.
During a brief interval of freedom when he was out of prison, Oscar came across an elderly Christian man. This man told him about the love of Christ and God’s amazing grace.
These words penetrated Oscar’s hardened heart and from that moment, a transformation began to take place in his life until he fully surrendered to Christ. From a hardened criminal, he was changed and became a new man. As he grew in faith, years later, he started a prison ministry. God used Oscar to affect many lives for Christ. Prison inmates would come to hear Oscar and sit intently for hours listening to the Gospel as he preached. Hardened criminals were transformed through his ministry. Oscar’s life became a living proof of the transformational power of the Gospel.

Indeed Oscar’s story is a clear picture of God’s grace. What professional psychiatrists had failed to do for Oscar in years of counseling was achieved overnight through God’s power.
The grace of God set him free from every captivity and opened him up to a new glorious destiny in Christ.
Truly, Jesus is the Great Physician who handles hopeless cases. What is deemed impossible by human experts is easily handled by His grace.
His Word is as hammer that breaks every rock in pieces.
No matter how strong any captivity, the Word of God is a spiritual hammer that will thoroughly shatter it.

In Jeremiah 23:29 God says: “Is not my word like as a fire? saith the Lord; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?”

Truly there is power in God’s Word to break every yoke in a man’s life. Anytime it seems as if we are confronted by spiritual strongholds or yokes that seem difficult to break, through faith in God’s Word we can always overcome. All we have to do is to stay connected to the Word until we are impacted by the faith that overcomes the world. As we release the Word against that situation, it goes forth as a spiritual sledge hammer to destroy the chains of captivity and release us into our glorious destiny.
Every sickness, financial challenge, sin, addiction, and afflictions can be broken off instantly by a genuine encounter with God’s Word.
Despite how difficult the condition, through God’s grace, there can be a change of story.
There is no pit so deep, that the power of God cannot deliver us from. There is no yoke so strong that His power cannot break. There is no bondage so thick that His power cannot destroy.
This is why in our lives and in the lives of our loved ones, we should never give up praying or think that any captivity is too strong, because no matter how terrible that situation, the yoke-breaking anointing in God’s Word can handle it.
All it takes is an encounter with the truth that sets free.
As long as we believe and receive God’s Word, His grace will be released for the supernatural restoration of our redemptive dignity. Indeed the grace of God can so color our past that no one sees the mess.
Today, it doesn’t matter how impossible the bondage or affliction confronting you, through God’s grace there can be supernatural deliverance. No matter how long that situation may have lingered, today can be your day of freedom.
Therefore, let us come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find the grace to help in time of need. — [Hebrews 4:16].

PRAYER: Lord, I know you have so much in store for me, please enable me to diligently study Your Word, so that I can encounter the power to break free from every bondage and move into the glorious future of blessings You have for me in Jesus Name. .
