WHOSE REPORT WILL YOU BELIEVE?

A Deep Thoughts Devotional Story

As Inspired by the LIVING WORD

When the doctor handed Chiamaka her test results, his tone was gentle but firm.
“I’m sorry, ma’am. With your condition, conception isn’t possible. You should start considering other options.”

The words echoed in her head for days. She cried, prayed, and then cried some more. But one morning, while reading her Bible, her eyes caught a verse she had read countless times before:

“And God blessed them and said, ‘Be fruitful and multiply…’” — Genesis 1:28

It hit differently that day. “Wait,” she whispered, “God didn’t say some will be fruitful: He said them!”

From that moment, she began to speak God’s Word daily.
“My body is fruitful. My womb is open. God has blessed me.”

She stopped checking online for medical explanations and started declaring divine promises. Weeks turned into months, but her faith didn’t waver. Then, one evening, as she sat reading, she felt an unfamiliar wave of nausea. A pregnancy test confirmed what the doctor said was “impossible.”

Her joy overflowed. “Whose report will you believe?” she kept asking anyone who listened.

Friend, God’s Word is final. People may have opinions, doctors may give reports, circumstances may speak loudly but what God says trumps them all.

You may be battling barrenness, lack, delay, or rejection but heaven’s decree still stands:

“You are fruitful.” (Genesis 1:28)

“You will flourish like a palm tree.” (Psalm 92:12)

“Your vision may tarry, but it will not fail.” (Habakkuk 2:3)

So, stop echoing what fear says.
Start declaring what God says.
Open the door of your breakthrough, the key has always been in your mouth.

KEY SCRIPTURE:
Proverbs 29:25 (GNT) — “It is dangerous to be concerned with what others think of you, but if you trust the Lord, you are safe.”

PRAYER POINTS:
1️⃣ Lord, forgive me for giving more attention to man’s words than to Yours.
2️⃣ Help me to boldly declare Your promises until I see their manifestation.
3️⃣ Father, silence every negative voice contradicting Your Word in my life.
4️⃣ Lord, strengthen my faith to believe that what You have spoken will surely come to pass.
