ONE WORD
Luke 19:28-37

Just one word of God is enough to terminate every struggle in the life of a believer or non-believer. Whenever the word of God finds an entrance into the life of the hearer, it will not leave without putting its mark of deliverance on the receiver. Luke 19: 30-31, “Saying, ‘Go into the village opposite you, where as you enter you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Loose it and bring it here. 31 And if anyone asks you, Why are you loosing it? Thus you shall say to him, Because the Lord has need of it.’” All that the Lord Jesus gave His disciples who went to get the colt was His word. The word of Jesus was received by the disciples without doubt or questioning. There was faith in place and in faith there is no alternative but to focus on God. Have you received any word of direction where there is no way out? The disciples went with the word of direction, word of command to where the colt was tied down. The colt owner responded by questioning why the colt was being loose. In response to the colt owner, the word of Jesus went out in Luke 19:34, “And they said, ‘The Lord has need of him.’” The colt owner responded to the word without any questioning or investigation of the word by allowing the colt to go. Often times, in the life of a believer, when the word of direction sounds, the contrast between the premise that we know too much and the truth of our not knowing enough hinders us getting enough from what the word of God wants to offer us. Indeed the word of wisdom states, ignorance makes a destitute of a believer and it can be evident in a situation of acting like we know more when knowing less is actually being demonstrated. In responding to the word of God, asking too many questions or attempting to investigate the dependability in the word will lead to stagnation. With stagnation in place, the miracle for breakthrough will cease from having its place. Which word has been sounding in your direction with no response coming forth from you? If you will choose to take to the word of God, your release or your breakthrough will be manifested. The word of Jesus that answered for the disciples delivered the colt into the hand of the disciples. How long will you continue to delay your breakthrough? As you enter into a new day, week, or season, let the word of God and not your world, have its way. If you are wiling and obedient, allow the word that sounds in your direction to release you into your service for the One that has created you for His glory and service.

Prayer for today: Let the simplicity of heart that allows the entrance of Your word that gives light have its place in my life.
