The Word of God

Scripture:

Luke 1:37 "For the word of God will never fail."

Observation:

The angel was speaking to Mary about becoming pregnant by the Holy Spirit.  He told her about Elizabeth, her cousin, being pregnant and in her sixth month.  At that point, the angel adds this one simple line, "For the word of God will never fail."

Application:

Sometimes we need reminded that the word of God will never fail.  What God speaks, will come to pass.  Our job is to trust Him and believe that what He says, He is able to perform.  We need to be encouraged periodically to remember the words He has spoken to us so that we can be strengthened to fulfill all He has called us to.  When God speaks... It's going to happen.  We just need to trust Him and keep walking forward.

Prayer:

Father, thanks for the reminder this morning that I can trust Your words.  You are faithful to Your promises and You never fail.  Thank You for strengthening my faith this morning.  Help me to complete every task You have given me and to realize that it is you, and not me, who will bring it to pass.

Your Son,
Jeff
