And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go. (Mark 11:6, KJV)
In the account of creation, the Bible says in Genesis 1:3 “And God said…” He spoke the Word. And in Psalms 107:20, the Bible says God sent His Word; Jesus Christ, Who in turn became flesh and dwelt amongst us; John 1:14.
Jesus Christ is the Word of God and the Word of God is God Himself, so when the disciples said what Jesus had commanded them, they actually presented Jesus Christ Himself to those who stood against their loosing the colt.
When we study the Word of God and catch a light, it is the life of Christ Himself that illuminates our hearts and then we reflect it by living it. That is why the Bible says in John 1:4-5;
In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
When we live in the light by obeying God’s commandments, we overcome every adversary and adversities.
Notice from our reading that the disciples did exactly as Jesus commanded, if they had done otherwise, there would not have been a release, but rather some dare consequencies.
One of the unfailing keys to total victory over darkness is absolute obedience to God’s Word. There is nothing like short cuts or half obedience. Half obedience, as a matter of fact is total disobedience.
I pray, from today, may the good Lord give you victory over every opposition even as you obey His commands to the latter, in Jesus mighty name!
It is well with you!
