The Word of God Effectively Works in You

1Thess 2:13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

Most Born Again believers know that they should read the Bible but some do not know to abide in the Word and allow the Word to abide in them. Abiding in the Word and allowing the Word to abide in us means spending time reading the Word and confessing it daily. It also means to hear anointed preaching and teaching on a regular basis.

John 8:31-32 says, “Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Abiding in the Word makes us disciples and we will know the truth and that truth will make us free.”

Abiding in the Word also gives us victory over our enemy, Satan. 1John 2:14 says “I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.”

Prayer Focus: Father, thank you for your Word that is more powerful than a two-edged sword.

Verse of the Day: 1Pet 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever.

Living the Word Today: Continuously abide in the Word of God and you will know the truth. The truth will set up free.
