“so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11 NIV
This weeks inspiration comes from Steven Furtick’s 1 minute motivation; Who’s got the final word? In this video he talks about putting our trust in God. When we think of God being the all knowing, Great I Am, is it easier to put our trust in Him? Depending on what season we are in, might depend on what we call God. For the first time, I heard God referenced as the “Final Word fom Heaven”. When you read that, what scripture verses come to mind? The first one for me is from John 19:30 NIV; “When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.” Jesus himself was the final word and His purpose on earth was finished.
Look at the beautiful ocean pictured here. Think about how God’s word does not return empty. Even when sent out to the vast ocean. What He desires to achieve will happen with purpose. We have the choice to live out that purpose, daily putting God’s word into practice. What better way to put His word into practice than to put our trust in Him? On this Spiritual Sunday, let’s recenter our hearts and minds on God’s final word from Heaven.
