Daily Rhema: INTEGRITY OF GOD’S WORD

MARCH 18

INTEGRITY OF GOD’S WORD

Num. 23:19 NKJV
God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?

Heb 6:18-19 NKJV
… that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us.

These scriptures reveal to us the integrity of God’s Word:

God has magnified His Word above His name: this means God Himself is subject to His own Word (Psa. 138:2).

God cannot break His Word: it is impossible for God to lie, or not to fulfill His Word or promises.

God is constantly paying attention to watch over His Word to perform it: so when you speak or pray according to His Word, you have His attention to see to it that His Word is fulfilled in your situation (Jer. 1:12).

What is integrity anyway?

It is honesty, reliability and consistency.

God’s Word is honest because God is righteous.

God’s Word is reliable because God is omnipotent and omniscient.

God’s Word is consistent because God is omnipresent.

All of the glory and majesty of divine nature, wisdom and power back God’s Word, so it is 100% reliable: you can stake your life on it and you will not be disappointed.

Why should you rely on the integrity of the written Word?

Because therein lies all the plans and purposes of God for every individual life (Rev. 22:19) and all of the treasures of wisdom and knowledge (Col. 2:2-3).

For instance, the fact that the earth is round is revealed in scripture (Isa. 40:22).

The ministry of the apostle Paul as a light to the Gentiles (Acts 13:47) was hidden and revealed in this scripture (Isa. 42:6).

How do you enjoy the integrity of God’s Word?

By reading, studying, confessing, meditating and practising in faith God’s written Word.

As you speak God’s Word in faith and pray in the Spirit, with an attitude of the fear of God and the love of God, God will watch over His Word in your life to perform it, and not one jot or tittle will fail to come to pass (Matt. 5.18).
