Say HiApart from prayer, God’s word remains His ever-lasting method to bring about the release ofsupernatural power. In fact, prayer without the appropriate understanding and backing ofthe Word may be ineffective. A.

The Word of God is the‘super’ behind the ‘natural.’ Only the Word can stop the hand of the devil (Matthew 4:11).A good understanding of the Word sets a believer on the pathway to continuous victory.
