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.

MONDAY AUGUST 26TH 2024 EXTRICATED FROM DEATH …who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel (2 Timothy 1:10).  PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  The Bible records that in ancient times, humans lived for exceptionally long periods with lifespans exceeding 900 years. However, as sin increased, lifespans diminished. Genesis 6:3 says because of sin, man's lifespan was limited to 120 years. Moses, in his psalms, made an observation that due to sin, the typical lifespan of man was seventy years or eighty for those who were stronger. Even in old age, man’s life was filled with toil and sorrow, ultimately ending in death (Psalm 90:8-10). The Lord Jesus, however, came to address the root cause of this limitation, which is sin. Through His sacrifice, He provided salvation from sin and made eternal life possible. Eternal life includes “deathlessness.” When you were born again, you passed from death to life (John 5:24). Recall what we read in our them...

TUESDAY, JULY 1ST 2025 CUSTODIANS OF A MESSAGE THAT WORKS For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  The Gospel of Jesus Christ that we preach is a message that truly works. It’s a message that produces undeniable results for everyone who believes it. It’s the reason you must be quick and bold to share it with others. I remember talking to a man who had a very severe heart condition. The doctors had diagnosed him with heart failure and said he needed a transplant. But as I shared the Gospel with him, I said, “While I’m talking with you, there’ll be a change in your heart. All you have to do is believe what I’m telling you; just believe and give me a few minutes of your attention.” He agreed. So, I kept talking to him, sharing with him the words of life. After about 15 minutes, I said to him, “It’s done.” And he replied, “Yes; it’s done.” The next test conducted on him ...
