Be encouraged: the Lord’s word can break the stoniest of hearts!

By Elizabeth Prata

Keep praying for your friends and family. The LORD and His Word is stronger than all circumstances, bigger than any sin, the healer of hearts, and the slayer of fortresses.

I traveled to Italy a few times back in the 1990s. I visited a lot of ancient stone and granite buildings, cathedrals, and monuments. It always amazed me to see the sunken middle step. Where millions of footsteps had trod over millennia, the stone had work away! Stone seems so strong, like it will never be worn out or dented. But with enough persistent pressure and use, the stoniest of stones will wear down.

Whether God works slowly in a person’s life or quickly, His word will wear away the seemingly strongest of guards around the heart. If your family, work acquaintance, or friend isn’t saved, God’s word IS like fire, a hammer, and a sword. It will pierce the strongest of stoutly sinning hearts. Don’t give up speaking truth and praying.
