GOD CONFIRMS THE WORD OF HIS SERVANTS

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi 

Text: Isaiah 44:26; 1 Kings 17:1

"Who confirms the word of His servant, and performs the counsel of His messengers..." (Isaiah 44:26).

     The Hebrew word translated "confirms" in Isaiah 44:26 is קוּם (qum), meaning to establish, fulfill, cause to stand, make effective, or bring to pass.     God is the One who causes the declarations of His faithful servants to stand firm and become reality.

    This principle is vividly demonstrated in the ministry of Elijah. Standing before King Ahab, Elijah declared, "There shall not be dew nor rain these years, except at my word" (1 Kings 17:1). Though Elijah was a man like other men, God honored his declaration because it was rooted in divine authority and covenant faithfulness. James 5:17-18 confirms that God backed Elijah's words with supernatural power.

    However, God does not confirm every prophetic utterance. He refused to honor the lies of Hananiah, who contradicted God's message through Jeremiah. Because Hananiah spoke presumptuously, God judged him, and he died according to the word of the Lord (Jeremiah 28:15-17).

     The secret of prophetic authority is not eloquence but faithfulness. God's servants must be saturated with His Word. David declared, "My tongue shall speak of Your righteousness and of Your praise all the day long" (Psalm 35:28). Likewise, the Spirit of Jesus said, "He whom God has sent speaks the words of God" (John 3:34).

     God confirms the words of servants who consistently speak His truth, uphold righteousness, and refuse compromise. Heaven still backs men and women whose loyalty to God is greater than their desire for human approval.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as Lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to be courageous 

Dear Lord, fill my heart with Your Word and make my speech a channel of Your truth, that my life may bring glory to Your name. Amen
