TOPIC: Work The Word (Rhapsody of Realities 23 October 2025)
Wherefore, my beloved… work out your own salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12).
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:
In Christianity, that you’re born again doesn’t automatically mean you’ll live like a true Christian or experience the results of the Christian life. It doesn’t mean things will automatically start happening of their own accord; no! You have to make them happen. You have to work out your salvation. That means you have to put your faith to work; you have to practise the Word of God.
It’s the doer of the Word that experiences the blessings of salvation: “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed” (James 1:22 & 25).
You have a life that’s superior to Satan, sickness, disease and infirmities—the divine life. You’re an associate of the God-kind: “Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” (2 Peter 1:4). You hail from God: “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4).
Your origin is in God, and He lives in you. You must superimpose these realities upon the circumstances of life. That’s where your knowledge of the Word and meditation comes in. You have to know and meditate on the Word for yourself. Through meditation, the realities in the Word and the truths within your spirit are brought into your consciousness. They become real and tangible to you.
Also, through conscious meditation on the Word, you make your way prosperous, create your victories, and deal wisely in the affairs of life: “This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it; For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success” (Joshua 1:8 AMPC).
There you have it: your glorious and prosperous life isn’t up to God but up to you. He’s given you His Word which is what you need to live supremely blessed, walk in dominion and enjoy the full benefits of salvation. But you must work the Word; act on it to produce in and for you what it talks about.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the divine life you’ve given me. I live in the consciousness of who I am in Christ. I superimpose your Word over my thoughts, my body, and my daily circumstances. I walk in divine health, peace and victory every day because I live from the awareness of your indwelling presence and the power of the Spirit in me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
FURTHER STUDY:
James 1:22-25 (KJV); But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Romans 12:2 (KJV); And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
1 Timothy 4:15 (KJV); Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.
