During prayer and devotional time on June 2, 2018, these words flowed from my heart to share with family and friends.  As for many of us, we are looking for “microwave” results in our lives without dedicating any time to God’s Word, becoming acquainted with His presence, or even understanding His ways of doing things. We must fully grasp that God is looking for us to have a working and loving relationship with Him. We must be a partaker His truth.

Yes, YOU must be a partaker of The Word which you are expecting to heal, produce results, and work diligently and effectively in your life! The Word of God must be digested in faith, believed, consistently meditated upon, and spoken daily! Just as a natural seed is deposited into the ground, consistently watered, attended daily, and eventually sprouts roots into its soil, the Word of God requires the same regiment and will bear the same results in our heart. The results of keeping up with this routine will flow out into our life. Within every seed there’s a plant that produces its own kind. So, if the Word of God is a seed that is filled with sustainable life and precious life-altering promises, it will eventually yield products of its kind in our lives as it germinates through the layers of our soul, and we patiently, faithfully, and lovingly anticipate it to come to fruition.

The Word of God will not go out and return void! It will produce! As decreed in Isaiah 55:11, “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.”

Work the Word!
