Listen while you read: "Thine Be The Glory"1 (Lyrics) |
Luke 18:35-38 – Then it happened, as He was coming near Jericho, that a certain blind man sat by the road begging. And hearing a multitude passing by, he asked what it meant. So they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. And he cried out, saying, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" (NKJV)
Brother Charles has been a very good Christian friend to me, and his faith challenged me to become a believer. One day, he gave me information that a certain pastor would be visiting the Christian Centre in Abuja, Nigeria, for ministry. For me, it was information not to delay over. That momentous day, we prepared and went for the programme. It was there that the man of God gave a message through which the Lord changed my life for good. I was liberated from my guilt and deceit, and today, I am a happy fellow to whom God decided to show mercy. If it were not for that information, I would still be held bound by Satan.
The case of the blind man in today's Scripture illustrates the value of good information. The blind man was given accurate information about Jesus Christ who was passing by, and the blind man used that information to cry out to Jesus for mercy. The more that he was rebuked, the more that he cried out. Jesus heard him, and that was how he received his healing. All the people praised God. The blind man made good use of the information, and he was delivered. When we pray that the right people will give us good information that will bring about our breakthrough, victory, and healing, God Almighty will bring them across our way in Jesus' name.
God is the custodian of all vital spiritual information, and always He wants us to inquire of Him, just as David did before he attacked the Amalekites. When we receive spiritual information from God and act on it, it will lead to our breakthrough and liberation from every satanic shackle. God always wants us to ask Him for sensitive information, and He is willing to release it to us so that our souls can be liberated for good.
Do we know that any information that we desire, whether for healing or breakthrough, God can grant to us through Jesus Christ our Lord? We have to be genuinely born again first, and then we can get vital information from God through fasting and prayer. Here is a supporting Scripture that we can apply on a daily basis as well:
Jeremiah 33:3 – Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know. (NKJV)
God is the only true source of spiritual information. A genuine source of information is a sure gateway for liberation.
Prayer: Dear Lord Jesus Christ, through Your Holy Spirit, grant us and our family members Your spiritual information that will help us to change our stories and bring our lives into order. Amen.

Hello
Praise God for your testimony and devotional. I, too, found liberation when I accepted Jesus many years ago last night, May 2.
I really like this verse in Jeremiah. Thanks for sharing.
God bless!!!
That is one of the most wonderfully timed pieces of information I have received! Thank you so very much for this way of describing how we can help others – by asking the Lord to give US the information we need, and to open the spiritual eyes of those for whom we pray, so that they are enabled to “hear and understand” God’s Word, and His call on their lives. Knowing the truth, from Him, is so amazing and wonderful! God bless you.
Dear Onome Ogbajibrede,
Thank you for your message of your coming to believe in Jesus Christ as your Savior.
I pray that you will continue to grow in your faith and trust and knowledge of Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and the Savior of the world. I pray that many persons who know Jesus Christ, whom to know is life eternal, will be filled with His Holy Spirit and be witnesses and voices for his Kingdom.
Keep writing and speaking of His mighty words and deeds.
Amen.
