God will sometimes give you a personal word, just for you! It will be precise, sharp and clear. It will be so "on point" that you know that it is expressly designed to meet your needs, situation or circumstance. You may be in the middle of a famine, a drought or a problem in your life, but there is a personal word from God that can solve every problem and cancel out the designs or plans of the enemy. I am a witness! Sometimes, even in the midst of the destructive intentions of the enemy, God will speak peace, give you a solution or reassurance,etc. You are never alone when you keep your faith in God and He will give you a personal word for your personal situation! I am reminded of the prophet Elijah, when "the word of the Lord came unto him". He received instruction concerning where he was to go in order to be fed. He didn't hesitate. He received the word and subsequently, his provision. God can give you the exact instruction, inspiration,message or answer that you need. Just keep believing in Him, and yes, it's personal! 1 Kings 17:1-3 King James Version (KJV)17 And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.2 And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,3 Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan
