The Game Changer!

INSPIRE Devotionals With Emmanuel Afiawari Monday, August 4, 2025 Topic: THE GAME CHANGER! Memory Verse: "(As it is written, 'I have made you a father of many nations') in the presence of Him whom he believed—God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did" - Romans 4:17 NKJV Bible Text: 2 Kings 4:26 KJV 26. Run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well. INSPIRATION: Every good and versatile coach studies their game very well and know when to introduce the game-changer in his team that helps them secure the win! As it applies to sporting events, so it does with every other human enterprise, including our faith walk. Unless and until you introduce the deciding factor to the game of your life, nothing changes. You'd just remain at the losing end all your life. Our bible text presents a fascinating story that gives credence to the above assertion! Was all truly well with this woman and her child? Not at all. Did she lie when she said all was well? That would be a rational conclusion. BUT, she was speaking the end in view, not the situation at present. She called what wasn't as if it were and it became (Romans 4: 17). Hallelujah! When you speak faith in the face of gloom, you're not being irrational; you're simply introducing the game changer because you understand the dynamics of the Spirit, where faith is the leveler of mountains. So, speak peace over your storm; speak joy over sorrow; speak health over sickness; speak abundance over lack; favour and acceptance over rejection; success over failure. Let faith govern your heart and frame the reality you desire over what is! TODAY'S TAKE HOME: Declare your end into reality today! Speak faith and not fear!! PRAYER: O Lord, please deliver me from idle and careless talk; teach me how to say the right things that are backed up in faith and scriptures, in Jesus name.
