The Healing Power of His Spoken Word

September 14 Devotional Meditation 

By Dr Patrick Elijah Anyomi 

Key Text:

 "He sent out his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave." (Psalm 107:20)

Devotional Meditation:

Praise the Lord! This verse is a powerful testimony to the creative, life-giving power of God’s spoken word. It reveals that God’s primary method of performing miracles is not through complex formulas or distant decrees, but by the release of His Word. 

His Word is not just information; it is activation. It carries within it the very substance and power to perform what it proclaims.
When God “sends out His word,” it is like a healing missile launched from the throne of heaven, targeted directly at the condition of the one in need. It is the same Word that spoke light into darkness, that called worlds into existence. That same creative, explosive power is released for your healing!

This is not a passive hope; it is an active force. The Hebrew word for healed here, “rapha,”means to mend, to cure, to repair thoroughly. God’s Word does not just cover symptoms; it reaches into the very root of the disease, the trauma, or the brokenness and performs a creative work of restoration. It rescues from the grave—from the deepest pits of despair, sickness, and death itself.

For the believer, this truth finds its ultimate fulfillment in JESUS, who is the Living Word made flesh (John 1:1, 14). Jesus is the Word that God “sent out” into the world to heal and to save! Every word He spoke carried this healing virtue: “Be clean!” “Be opened!” “Stretch out your hand!” And the power of those words is still available to us today through the Holy Spirit.
The same Word that healed them then is alive today—in the Scriptures we stand upon, in the promises we proclaim, and in the name of Jesus we command over sickness. 

When we speak His Word in faith, we are releasing that same healing power into our circumstances. Receive His Word today. Let it penetrate your body, your soul, and your spirit. His Word is sent to heal you!

Time of Prayer:
Heavenly Father, we shout praises to Your name! Thank You that You are a God who speaks, and when You speak, creation must obey! Thank You for sending Your Word to heal and to deliver.

Right now, we stand on the authority of Your Word. Your Word says You sent it to heal, so we receive our healing now! We speak to every sickness, every disease, every spirit of infirmity: BE HEALED in the mighty name of Jesus! We command bones to be strengthened, organs to function perfectly, blood to be cleansed, and every cell to come into divine order. We command pain to leave, inflammation to flee, and strength to flood every body right now!

Lord Jesus, You are the Word. We invite Your healing presence to saturate us. Let Your life flow into every area of need. We believe we are receiving a creative miracle from You right now. We break every assignment of the enemy meant to bring death and destruction, and we declare that we are rescued from the grave and restored to full health!

We receive it, we believe it, and we thank You for it! Let our lives be a testimony to the healing power of Your spoken Word in Jesus Name! Amen and Hallelujah
