Rhapsody of Realities TeeVo Devotional 23rd June – Have A Word-Diet

(Be Reprogrammed Through God’s Word)

TO THE BIBLE: Romans 12:2 CEV
“Don’t be like the people of this world, but let God change the way you think. Then you will know how to do everything that is good and pleasing to him.”

LET’S TALK
At the well of Samaria, Jesus encountered a woman and asked her for a drink of water. But noticing that He was a Jew, the woman told Him they had nothing in common, and for ethnic reasons, declined. Then, Jesus replied, “…Everyone who drinks this water will get thirsty again. But no one who drinks the water I give will ever be thirsty again. The water I give is like a flowing fountain that gives eternal life” (John 4:13-14 CEV).

The Master knew He could give her something to quench her thirst forever—the Word. With the Word, she would be able to create anything she desired. When people face difficult situations, they need a Word-therapy or what I may call a “Word-diet.” They’d have to listen to God’s Word and study the Scriptures over a while until the Word gets rid of the wrong mindset and reprograms them aright for success.

If that doesn’t happen, their situation won’t change no matter what else you do for them. Sometimes, when people are sick in their bodies, the real problem is beyond the apparent symptoms in their physical bodies. Such pains might stem from their mind. There’s a difference between the sickness of the mind and that of the body. So even when they’re healed in their bodies, the sickness continues because it was really a problem of the mind. The solution is to reprogram their minds through the Word for total restoration.

The Word of God gives you everything you need: health, joy, wealth, prosperity, grace, wisdom and all that the vicarious death of Christ and His triumphant resurrection delivered to us as Christians. That’s what salvation encapsulates. With the knowledge of God’s Word in your spirit, you have what it takes to create anything you want.
