FAITH CAPSULE: The Word will break every barrier.

1 Kings 18:1-19

In the beginning God created all things by speaking the word. God said, “Let there be light; and there was light.” (Genesis 1:3) Nothing was created outside of the word of God. In the book of John, the Bible recorded, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.” (John 1:1-3) The Word of God is power. The above information is not a story but was written to sustain our faith that the Word of God is power; it has neither limitation nor barrier. The Word of God cannot be stopped by any force under heaven. The Word is already here for you if you will pay the price to have it become your indwelling. The price for the Word is your commitment to the Word of God, and the Word will be committed to you. The Word will break every barrier that is stopping man from possessing possessions. Nowhere was Elijah mentioned in the Bible until he appeared to King Ahab. In the name of God, he commanded rain to cease for years and it was honored in heaven. After his declaration he began to run from place to place. Elijah could no longer show himself to King Ahab. There was no rain in the land and Elijah could not be located anywhere. Elijah could not present himself at the ground where the power of God was demonstrated through him. 1 Kings 18:1, “And it came to pass after many days that the word of the LORD came to Elijah, in the third year saying, ‘Go, present yourself to Ahab, and I will send rain to the earth.’” When the Word of the Lord came to Elijah, Elijah broke away from hiding, and he had the liberty and freedom to present himself where he would not have been able to. The Word will break every barrier that is stopping you from presenting yourself where you choose to. 1 Kings18:2, “So Elijah went to present himself to Ahab and there was a severe famine in Samaria.” The Word that sounded for Elijah was power, and no man could deny the move of the power of God. Psalmist recorded, “He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.” (Psalms 107:20) Apostle Paul stated,“So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.” (Acts 20:32) Do you believe? 

Prayer for today: Ask God for the word that delivered Elijah from hiding to sound in your direction to deliver and establish your freedom on grounds that have kept you in hiding.
