The word of God alone is true. Even if circumstances should all be against you, His word remains true. When you have problems with your home, school, business or personal needs, your prayers will be in vain if you do not believe God’s word. You have not, because you pray not. You pray and still have not, because you do not believe in God’s word. It is a waste of time to pray without believing in the word of God. In order to receive God’s grace, one thing which is so necessary is to lay hold of His word.
You believe and God performs. Whenever something confronts you, you must ask Him to give you a word. And then with His word, you shall be able to break through any problem whatsoever. To have God’s word in such a manner is to possess the sword of the Spirit. Almost all the armor mentioned in Ephesians 6 is for defensive purposes; only the sword of the Holy Spirit, "which is the word of God," is for offensive use. Having God’s word, you can overthrow every obstacle and solve all problems.
“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life” (Prov. 4.24)
