The POWER of the WORD OF GOD

In these scriptures, much emphasis is given regarding the “power of God’s WORD.”


“They were amazed at his teaching, because his message had authority”….. Jesus spoke “come out of him!” “All the people were amazed… with authority and power he gives orders to evil spirits and they come out!”

God’s word shall not return unto him void; therefore we are to rest in God’s
promise, trusting HIM to work HIS WORD that we speak; and He will give us the WORDS to speak in that same hour.

Isa 55:11 “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not
return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall
prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.”

Mt 10:19 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.

Lu 24:49 “And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.”

Note the name Jerusalem means foundation of peace, or founded in peace,
teaching peace, duel peace shall be taught, lay/set ye double peace.

Jesus is our foundation. He is the PRINCE of PEACE. He is the WORD. We are to tarry in the WORD until we are endued with power. Worshiping Him in TRUTH (the WORD) and in SPIRIT. God works his WORD two ways: inside us as we read and hear the WORD, and when it flows outward as we speak to others. God WORKS his WORD in and through us. It’s a domino effect: once spoken to someone and they hear the Word, God works His Word on the inside of them, and so on. The point is that we are to tarry in the WORD until we are endued with power.  You cannot give what you do not have:  Read it, hear it, chew on it awhile, then share it:  speak it outloud outward. 

Heb 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

SWORD OF THE SPIRIT. This is the word (rhma) of God, what His mouth has spoken, and is the only offensive weapon given to Christians with which to fight the Lord’s battles. #Eph 6:17. The word (logov) of God is likened to a two-edged sword, #Heb 4:12.

Speak the simple WORD of GOD trusting the LORD to work HIS WORD. Yield to the Holy Spirit so that God’s Word flows out of your mouth, as you rest your faith in God, trusting HIM to work HIS WORD, and God’s power will flow through you. God will work his WORD in those who hear the WORD you have spoken to them, long after you have left their presence.

Heavenly Father draw your children to you like a magnet with a deep desire to seek you and your WORD, to tarry until they are endued with power. In Jesus’ name. AMEN!

God Bless you.

March 2011 Just Thoughts and Thankfulness

What a long Winter of ups and downs of cold and colder, of snow and more snow and even more snow.  So many have the flu or viruses and colds.  Thank you Lord for our health.  Thank you Lord for the warmth of our home, for the roof over our head; for shoes on my feet so I can tread through the snow .... to search for clean snow to make snow ice cream.  Thank you for my family and friends and their warm hearts and love they share.  Thank you Lord for the cleansing that comes with being cooped up inside during the Winter seasons of our lives.  Thank you for the hope of Spring to come and the expectations in my heart.  Winter makes one appreciate Spring even more!  Oh the seasons of our lives!  Thank you Lord for the years and years of seasons of my life and the experiences and teachings that finally soaked in.  Thank you for your presence that I feel in my heart and spirit  ... especially when I'm all alone in the quietness and stillness of nothingness of my thoughts, in the darkness.  Thank you LORD for the HOPE you have always given me and continue to provide.  Thank you LORD that you are my source and supplier of all the necessities of this life and eternal life to come.  Until then I continue onward toward you, my "master" LORD JESUS!
