THE ROD IN YOUR HAND

Exodus 4:1(And Moses answered and said, But, behold they will not believe me nor hearken unto my voice: for they will say, The LORD had not appeared unto thee. 2 And the LORD said unto him, what is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod. 3 And he said, cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from before it).

Hebrews 4:12(For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of thoughts and intent of heart).

The word of God in our hand is the commander of sign and wonder. The word of God is a powerful tool in the hand of a believer. As we continue our journey here on earth, we need the rod which is the word of God to succeed because we are always going to be confronted by some obstacles that our hand alone will not be able to destroy. Some hard situations need to be smashed by the rod and if you don’t have the rod in your hand there is not much you can do. The question is how much of the rod do you have? Because the amount of the word of God you have in you will determine the level of your command of sign and wonder. You are limited by the amount of the word of God in you. When God sent Moses to Egypt to deliver his people the only weapon he has was the rod which is the word of God. Moses tells God that the children of Israel will not believe that God has sent him. God asked him what is in his hand and he said the rod. The word of God will always speak for himself because the word of God is spirit and life. John 6:63(it is the spirit that quickeneth the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life). The word of God defeated Pharaoh and his armies. He will terminate any struggles. We just have to know how powerful the word of God is. The word of God empowers believers. Imagine Moses that ran away from Egypt when he tried to deliver the Israelite without the rod. The same Moses, the same Egypt, nothing has really changed except that he encountered God and his word. I pray for you, that you will encounter God and his word today in Jesus name. People will be surprised at your exploit and they will say the same thing they said concerning Jesus is he not the carpenter son. Your name will ring a bell in Jesus' name. At the wedding in Canaan, the spoken words of Jesus to the servant turn water into wine. If Moses did not use the rod in his hand they would be no sign and wonder. You need to be both hearer and doer of the word before it can produce results in your life. Moses listened to the word of God, received the word, ran to Egypt with word and applied the word and came out of Egypt with the children of Israel as the LORD had spoken. Friends, no matter how long your journey is, if you will do exactly what Moses does with the word he received you will surely make it to the end. Moses did not give up, because he knew the word of God can never fail. No matter how stubborn that Pharaoh is, the word will surely wear him down and destroy. Moses keeps engaging the word from the Lord until the last one that finally nails Pharaoh. I don’t know how many times you have tried, don’t give up so easily. That stubborn pharaoh will definitely bow in the name of Jesus. The word of God does not work in the hand of everybody; it can only work in the hand of those who give him attention. Please give him your attention today in case you have not and allow him to mold your destiny.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and savior. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
