Dunamis Seeds Of Destiny 3 May 2025 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche: The Word Of God – Our Source Of Hope
TOPIC: The Word Of God – Our Source Of Hope (Seeds Of Destiny 3 May 2025)
SCRIPTURE: My soul fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word. Psalm 119:81
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: You are not permitted to be hopeless if you are worded.
MESSAGE:
The importance of the Word of God in the life of the child of God can never be over emphasized. The Word of God is as necessary to a person as clean water is to a thirsty man (Ephesians 5:26). If the Word of God is likened to water, then it means as it is impossible for a person to survive without water so is it for anyone to live without the Word.
Now, why is the Word of God necessary?
We will look at one of the reasons today. The Word of God is the hope of the child of God. Psalm 119:81 says, My soul fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word. The Word of God is fuel for hope in the heart of man. Psalm 119:114 also corroborates this. Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word. Psalm 62:5 buttresses it, My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.
Beloved, wait only upon God and His Word, not upon man, not upon the government, not upon connection abroad.
Some time ago, someone called me from Europe and said, “Pastor, pray for me.” I asked her, “Why?” And she said, “They have given me three weeks to return to Nigeria.” And I said to her, “Why do they want you to return to Nigeria, are you not staying there legally?” She said, she went there as a refugee, like an asylum seeker, that they have not been able to work on her papers for her to stay there legally.
I got very angry in my spirit and asked her, “Asylum? Why? Are you a refugee? Which war did you run from? It is because of your type that people don’t respect us abroad. Is refugee a good thing?” I asked her, “So what do you want?” She said, “Pray for me.” Then I prayed, “Father, let your will be done in her life. If it is your will for her to return to Nigeria, let her return.” I am sure she regretted calling me.
Beloved, look up to God and to His Word; stop working for connection that will amputate your life. The Word of God gives us hope. The meaning is, you are not permitted to be hopeless if you are worded. Wordlessness can bring hopelessness. Place yourself on a consistent diet of the Word. Hopelessness and discouragement are the twins of suicidal tendencies.
The Word of God is what fuels hope in man and hope in man attracts the help of God. So, if you are not wordless, you can’t be hopeless.
Remember this: You are not permitted to be hopeless if you are worded.
ASSIGNMENT (S):
- Ingest the Word of God into your spirit daily.
- Refuse to place your hope on man or in the systems of this world.
- Locate a scripture that addresses what you are trusting God for and wait on God for the manifestation.
PRAYER: Lord, my eyes are on You. I cannot fear what the future holds because You hold my future in Your Hands Lord. Thank You for bringing my expectations to pass, Lord in Jesus’ Name.
