Psalm 107:20 ‘He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions’

DAILY READING          Philippians 1:1-11; Ezekiel 18; Isaiah 47

In past centuries, the South Sea islands have been known for their cannibalism, which only came to a stop in recent times.  Missionaries risked their lives to bring the Gospel to these people. And when the message of the Gospel finally gained a hold on some of these former cannibals, their lives were greatly transformed. Leaving behind their old ways, they served God with dedication.

The story is told of an anthropologist who was carrying out research in the region of the South Sea islands. One day he came upon one of these converted cannibals who was sitting by a large pot reading his Bible. When the anthropologist saw him, he was curious as to what the man was doing. He approached the native and said, “What are you doing?” The ex-cannibal replied, “I’m reading the Bible.” The anthropologist then said, “Don’t you know that modern man has rejected that book?” The cannibal looked him over and said, “Sir, if it weren’t for this book, you’d be in that pot.”

The anthropologist of course became immediately grateful for the transformation upon the cannibal.  The truth is that if it weren’t for the Bible, many of us would have been in various pots of life. But through knowledge of the truth we have been set free. The Word of God is His instrument of rescue to us.

Psalm 107:20 says ‘He sent His Word and healed them and delivered them from their destructions’. Indeed The Word of God delivers us from destruction. It  is the supernatural force sent by God into the world to rescue us from every negative situation. And don’t forget that The Word is a person and His name is Jesus.

Jesus came primarily to the earth to rescue men and destroy the works of the devil. And whatever works of the enemy may be confronting you today, Jesus through the instrument of The Word is able to set you free. It doesn’t matter how tight things may seem,  there is power in God’s Word to transform that situation and turn it around for your good. Always know that there is a way out . You can be free, you can have your miracle, you can have the victory. You only need to pay attention to The Word  to gain revelation of what to do. Many people’s sufferings are simply because they lack the knowledge of what to do to get out of their predicament.

Hosea 4:6 says ‘My people perish for lack of knowledge’ And a wise man said ‘there is no mountain anywhere, every man’s ignorance is his ow mountain.’

There is a key of knowledge which when you apply it, will open the door for you to walk out free. The knowledge that comes from God’s Word provides us the ticket to freedom. Our depth of knowledge of The Word will determine the height of liberty we can enjoy in life. The Word of God is able to transform any situation. In-depth knowledge of God’s Word is the way of escape from every negative circumstance.

Just sit down with The Word and ask God to show you the way out. As you begin to diligently study The Word, The Holy Spirit will begin to connect scriptures that will reveal to you what to do to be free. Indeed with God’s Word, you can  sort any situation.!

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for the freedom and deliverance that has come my way through the instrument of Your Word. Indeed by Your word I am preserved and delivered from every trap of destiny in Jesus  Name. .. ..
