FAITH CAPSULE: Be a carrier of God’s word and His Word will not fail in carrying you.

Daniel 3

The word of God is God. The book of John 1:1-3 pointed out, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.” The Word of God is true and is power. The Word has never stopped coming to us since the beginning. The Word that has been made available will only be available if heart is opened and receptive for the Word to reign and rule.
Are you opened for the word or opened to the world?
Psalm 107:20 stated, “He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.” The same Word of God that was sent is the same that is near our mouths and we are to use it as a weapon for defense against all that the enemy brings in our direction. Elijah was walking and standing in the word as he took a stand to declare word with power of God in action as recorded, “And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, ’As the LORD God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, except at my word.’” (1Kings 17:1)
Daniel’s three friends disobeyed king by taking to the word of God. The three friends refused to fall down and worship the gold image which King Nebuchadnezzar set up. Three friends stood in the word of God as they were set to be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. In the face of King Nebuchadnezzar, the three friends declared word that is faith entrenched, “…O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.  If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king.  But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up.” (Daniel 3:16-18)
Since the creation, there is no king that can overpower word of God. With word, Elijah was untouchable by shutting up heaven for rain as declared by the word of God. Three friends of Daniel were placed in the fiery furnace but God showed up as King Nebuchadnezzar saw and stated, “I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.” (Daniel 3:25)
The word of God is not a fun fair it is for real. Meditate on it day and night; be a carrier of God’s word and His Word will not fail in carrying you.

Prayer for today: Ask for the Word of God to be established in you for the glory of God.
