STICK TO THE WORD

…yea, let God be true, but every man a liar… (Romans 3:4).

PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD.

God’s Word never fails; it is truth and produces what it talks about. Titus 1:2 tells us that God cannot lie. It brings to mind an encounter I had with a blind man many years ago in one of our meetings. After praying for him, the Lord told me he had been healed. So I approached him and asked, “Sir, can you see me?” He said, “No.” His eyes were completely shut, and the crowd began to laugh.

Nevertheless, I stood firm on what the Lord had told me and declared before everyone, “God said this man has been healed, and God cannot lie.” Though the man insisted he couldn’t see, I remained unruffled. And after a few minutes, his eyes opened, and he began to rejoice that he could see. If I hadn’t acted on the truth of God’s Word, he might have gone back home blind. Stick to the Word, and you’d surely have a testimony.

On another occasion, the Lord showed me a striking vision. He put a man before me and said, “This man was diagnosed with cancer, but look at him, there’s no cancer in his body.” And indeed, when I looked, there was no cancer. Then the Lord said, “But he will die of cancer.” Shocked, I asked, “Why will he die if there’s no cancer?”

And the Lord replied, “Because he believes the report he was given.” That’s the difference between facts and truth. Human diagnosis may present a fact, but God’s Word reveals the truth. The man would die, not because there was cancer in him, but because he chose to believe the wrong report, and his faith in that report created the cancer. 

Many Christians struggle with flaws simply because they believe in them rather than see themselves from the standpoint of God’s Word. As long as you keep saying, “I have this weakness, I have this flaw,” you’ll live in that struggle. But when you believe and declare God’s Word, and see yourself the way He sees you in the Word, you’ll live triumphantly every day. Your life blossoms from glory to glory when you stick to the Word, speaking and living accordingly.

PRAYER 

Dear Father, thank you for bringing me into perfection in Christ Jesus. My words are consistent with your truth, and I walk in the consciousness of who I am in Christ. I live beyond human limitations, manifesting your glory and righteousness. My life glows from glory to glory because I live in and by your Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY

Hebrews 4:12 NIV; For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

2 Corinthians 3:18; But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Isaiah 55:10-11 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 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.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 2025 LET THE GOSPEL BE YOUR PASSION For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to save, heal, deliver and transform lives. That’s why it must be a message you understand, live by, and burn with passion to share with others especially as the coming of the Lord draws nearer than we’ve ever known. Paul the Apostle declared that he was not ashamed of the Gospel. That statement came from a place of deep conviction and unwavering commitment. For him, preaching the Gospel wasn’t optional but life itself. He lived for the Gospel and was willing to die for its advancement. Read His inspiring and heart-stirring words in Acts 20:22-27, “And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying ...

  SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH 2025 THE KINGDOM, THE FIELD, AND THE SEED Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field (Matthew 13:24). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Lord Jesus, in His remarkable teachings about the Kingdom, used parables to unveil profound truths. One of such examples is the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew 13. He said, "...the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field" (Matthew 13:24). That "man" is the Lord Himself, while the "good seed" represents the children of the Kingdom. The "field," as He later explained, is the world. This is extraordinary. The Lord sowed good seed, not in someone else's field, but in His own field. That tells you the world is His field and part of His Kingdom. It belongs to Him. No matter what we see in the world today, no matter how polluted it appears, the field still b...
