THE SEED
“And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb, and by the word of their testimony…” Revelation 12:11
Testimonies are very powerful. Revelation 12:11 confirms that the devil can be overcome by the word of our testimony. Have you observed that those who frequently share testimonies always have new ones? This is because when you talk about what God has done in the past, He will be moved to do more. A testimony is a weapon of warfare. 2 Chronicles 20:5-7 shows this clearly. King Jehoshaphat knew how to give testimonies. Three different armies had gathered to destroy him, so he began to testify: God are you not the one who did this? Are you not the one who did that? God told him there was no need to fight the battle. Because he testified to the goodness of God in the life of the Israelites, Jehoshaphat and his people only had to sing and God destroyed this army before them. King David was another man who knew how to give testimonies. His testimonies are all over the book of Psalms. There is a lot to gain from sharing testimonies and a lot to lose from keeping God’s wondrous works to oneself. Have you been hiding your testimony? Why not start relaying your testimonies at every opportunity you have even if it is with just one person and see what God will do in your life? Share your testimony today and you will begin to experience more wondrous blessings from God.

PRAYER: O Lord grant me grace to continually share my testimony to manifest your greater love towards me in Jesus’ name Amen
