"If God says something, it will surely come to pass"
If God says something, whether it is a 'blessing' or it is a 'curse', if it is from the Lord, it will surely come to pass. Two situations in the Bible prove this:
1. Blessing from the Lord:
II Kings 6:24-29
Samaria, where Israelites lived, was surrounded by the King of Aram. So, food materials and other resources didn't come in or go out of Samaria. A great famine prevailed in Samaria. The famine was so intense that "Men were eating men". So, the King of Israel approached Elisha for getting God's word. God's word came to Elisha:
"Elisha said, Hear the word of the LORD. This is what the LORD says: About this time tomorrow, a seah of flour will sell for a shekel and two seahs of barley for a shekel at the gate of Samaria." - II Kings 7:1
The word of God came to pass.
"Then the people went out and plundered the camp of the Arameans. So a seah of flour sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley sold for a shekel, as the LORD had said." - I Kings 7:16
2. Curse from the Lord:
I Kings 22
Ahab, the King of Israel, planned to fight against Ramoth, the enemies of Israel. So, before going to battle, he wanted to know the word of God. So, he called all the prophets of Israel and asked whether he should go to war against Ramoth. God spoke clearly through Micaiah, the prophet of Israel. The words were:
".......The LORD has decreed disaster for you." - I Kings 22:23
Hearing this from the prophet, to protect himself from the attack, Ahab entered the battle in disguise. (I Kings 22: 30). But nothing can prevent the fulfilling of God's words:
"But someone drew his bow at random and hit the king of Israel between the sections of his armor"- I Kings 22:34
"So the king died and was brought to Samaria, and they buried him there" - I Kings 22:37
From the above two instances, we understand how God's words were fulfilled just the way he spoke it : "Blessings" to those who deserve and "Curse" to those who deserve.
Call for us:
Now, God has declared "Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done." - Revelation 22:12.
As He has declared
- He is going to come soon.
- Our rewards are with Him. If we deserve His "Blessing" we'll go with Him to Heaven, if we deserve "Curse" we'll go to hell.
So, be prepared to get the reward of God because "If God says something, it will surely come to pass"
