The Effectual Working Of The Word

Apostle Grace Lubega

1 Thessalonians 2:13 (KJV); For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

In our theme scripture we understand that the church at Thessalonica, at the time the Gospel was preached unto them, did not receive the Word of God as preached by Paul as though it were the words of a mere man. But they received it as the Word of God in truth.

For this reason, the Word which Thessalonica received worked effectually in them that did believe it.

The Greek word that is used to translate the words “effectually worketh” in our opening scripture is “energeō” which means to put forth power.

The Word of God you believe has a definite effect in your spirit. The moment you believe it, it starts to put forth power to make things around you respond to it.

Child of God, what does the Word of God say about you? Believe it and speak it upon your life.

Paul admonished us in his letter to Philemon, teaching us that ‘the communication of your faith is made effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing that is in you’ (Philemon 1:6).

Learn to communicate the Word of God with your mouth. Speak it upon your life. As you believe and speak it, it releases the power to cause results. Hallelujah!

GOLDEN NUGGET:

The Word of God you believe has a definite effect in your spirit. The moment you believe it, it starts to put forth power to make things around you respond to it.

PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for this great assurance. I thank you because all things are possible to him that believes. I live a life that demonstrates the miraculous. I abound in faith and I am fruitful in every good work, bearing results in my ministry, in my education, in my business, at my workplace, in my health and in my family life. I see your Word work in my life! Hallelujah!
