Good Morning Friends,
“As the rain and the snow come down from
heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud
and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so
is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but
will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.”
(Isaiah 55:10-11)
Nature has its laws. They are principles that
God established in creation that are always at work. The one Isaiah mentions
here is one we talk about in nursery rhymes: “April showers bring May flowers.”
When the rains come, you can count on their having an impact on the land, on
what grows, and what is produced. The rain, with its moisture and its
nutrients, will accomplish its purpose. There will be growth and productivity.
There are spiritual laws at work in our
world, too. Just like the natural laws, these have been established by God,
too. They are always at work. Here’s one: God’s Word will make an impact
wherever it goes.
If we send God’s Word into the darkest land
in the world, the darkness will not overcome the Word. Rather, the Word will
impact the darkness and diminish it. We’ve seen it happen already in place
after place around the world. Lives are changed when God’s Word is preached. It’s
a spiritual law.
When you apply the Word of God to the life of
one who is already a believer, things happen there, too. Growth and spiritual
productivity is the natural result of the growing presence of God’s Word in our
lives.
So, do you want to grow spiritually and be
spiritually productive? Here’s one of the keys – the Word of God. Get into it
and let it get into you and things will happen in your life. It’s a law!
His, by Grace,
Steve
