FAITH CAPSULE: Seeing in the word of God is to receive victory in the face of challenge.

Joshua 6

It is written, “He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.” (Psalm 107:20) God sent His word for declaration to decorate man with healing and deliverance for any man that will see to receive in His word. One that claims the word of God for deliverance is the one which the word enters. The word must enter to be manifested. Psalm 119:130 declared, “The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple.” When there is understand for the one with the word of God there will be a knowing edge in the face of challenges. Without doubt, just a word which enters a man is enough to terminate a life struggle or make a way for the receiver of the word of God.
God promised the Israelites to take them to the Promised Land but at a point in time of the journey the enemy stood against the Israelites. Open passage was shut by the enemy. The Israelites needed to hear the word of God as direction to have opened door for passage to the Promised Land. It is written, “Now Jericho was securely shut up because of the children of Israel; none went out, and none came in.  And the Lord said to Joshua: “See! I have given Jericho into your hand, its king, and the mighty men of valor.” (Joshua 6:1-2) Without doubt or questioning, by faith, Joshua saw to receive the word of God which granted Israelites a passage. Until one begins to see in the word it becomes impossible to receive the promise of God. The word of God for man must be received with understanding to have a knowing edge over challenge.
God spoke to Jeremiah and he needed to see in the spoken word of God to answer for God in his life. It is written, “See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant. Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Jeremiah, what do you see?” And I said, “I see a branch of an almond tree. Then the Lord said to me, “You have seen well, for I am ready to perform My word.” (Jeremiah 1:10-12) God wanted to perform in the life of Jeremiah for His glory but Jeremiah must be able to see in the word of God. Jeremiah saw and live for the glory of God. It is faith that will make man to identify in the word of God for deliverance and preservation. Faith is the key to go further and not falter regardless of any challenging situation. Seeing in the word of God is to receive victory in the face of challenge.

Prayer for today: Ask God for the grace to be seeing in His word which terminates life struggle.
