“God’s word will accomplish”

So shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth; it will not return to me void, but it will accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it will prosper in the thing for which I sent it. Isaiah 55:11 AMPC

Verse Reflections:  After decades of trying to lose weight, there is not a doubt in my mind that God’s word is the only secret to my success.  God’s word will accomplish what we cannot by our own power and strength.  God’s word will not be read without infusing us with power.  His word is power, it is never empty.  Christ wants us to be healthy and to care for our bodies, our health.  Therefore, He has given us power through His word, His verses.  It WILL accomplish God’s will for our life.  We will, His word WILL prosper in the thing for which I sent it.  Just relaxing in the knowledge that God is in control, that His word is changing over habits, our thoughts, our eating style will make the difference.  God’s word promises us here that every verse He gives us has power, it is not empty.  It will accomplish His promises.  We have tried and tried to “prosper” (be successful or grow strong and healthy) in our healthy eating.  We cannot.  This verse reminds me that we will “prosper” with His verses, the power behind these verses.  We can take His words, the words in all these devotionals and wrap them into our heart.  Every word that goes out of God’s mouth will prosper and be successful.  We are changing, morphing into different people every time we read His word.

Prayer:  Lord, I trust that every word You speak, every one of these verses are full of power.  I know that Your words are not empty.  I trust that You are filling me with power every time I read one of these verses.  God, You are changing me.  I feel it, I know it.  Without Your word, I have no strength of character.  I begin to crave foods that are not healthy.  Your word seems to form a protective cocoon around my thoughts and cravings.  They become beautiful like a butterfly instead of being a worm that eats into my very being.  I depend on Your word, the power of Your word.  I stand on the promise that Your words are not empty.  Thank You Father.  Every time I read words that You have spoken that promise me the ability to eat healthy, I reach up to grab those words and hold them close.  Thank You for making a difference.  Today we will prosper in eating healthy.
