THE WORD WORKS!

Isaiah 34:16 TLB

Search the book of the Lord and see all that he will do; not one detail will he miss; not one kite will be there without a mate, for the Lord has said it, and his Spirit will make it all come true.

 

The word of God works! Indeed it does. The word of God is spirit and live according to John 6:63 capable of producing the authentic spiritual life, only the Spirit can do this. The Holy Spirit works in and through the word that Jesus speaks to do what the word declares. The word of God is living and active says Hebrews 4:12, when quickened by the Holy Spirit, has dynamic power to impart spiritual life to us.

God’s Word is far more than just an interesting book, it has inherent power as the carrier of undisputed truth that cannot be withstood or disproved.

Through the word, believers are born again, faith is worked, and God’s power operates within them. The word itself is a source of power, working faith that is strong and capable3. God’s Word functions to spur believers on, and it will achieve its purpose regardless of human faithfulness.

Isaiah claimed the authority of God’s word as all the prophets of old, reminding us that God always fulfils His word when the time comes.

God made His word available to everyone, levelling the playing field so that no one can say they can’t access the word because it was economically, materially and socially out of their league or reach according to Isaiah 55. Verses 1-3 says we can have anything in God without money and price, although the grace of God to salvation is free, it cost God and Jesus a great deal.

God is true to His word, as verses 10-11 state, rain and snow do not fall to the ground to fulfil their God-given purposes unhindered, so too will His word concerning all things be unhindered. The word is always fruitful and will not return void or empty to the Father.

The book of the Lord, the bible is all divinely inspired by God with the authority to manifest His word in the lives of the believer who believes in the literal interpretation of the Bible, and that all of it has truly come to us from God the Father.

David said in Psalm 119:148 that one must meditate on the Bible to find its meaning and how to apply the truth within the word to our daily lives. Meditating on the Bible means thinking about, chewing on, and figuring out the meaning of all of the different verses in the Bible and the differences they make in and to us.

All through the Bible, we see the word of God manifested and fulfilled at God’s appointed time as declared in Ecclesiastes 3:11. God puts eternity in the heart of man, so that man cannot find any other way to know about him without discovering His word or experiencing this world without the word.

Jesus declares the authenticity and infallibility of the word in Matthew 5:18 telling us that until heaven and earth disappear, not even the smallest detail of God's law will disappear until its purpose is achieved, that is, to do the work it was sent forth to do as confirmed in Isaiah 55:11.

The Holy Spirit is the only one who reveals and communicates the Bible’s truths to us, without his teaching, we would have no understanding because, unlike all other books, the word of God is spiritually discerned. It’s a spiritual and not a mental or academic exercise.

From Genesis to Revelation, we would find that every prophetic word of God did, will and continues to manifest in God’s time without fail. None of His spoken word has ever nor will ever return empty to Him until the work is done.

The word works!

Hold on to the word for it shall surely come to pass.

His word is yes and amen in Christ Jesus according to 2 Corinthians 1:20.

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START AGAIN!

Job 17:10-11 GW   "But now, all of you, come and try again! I won’t find one wise man among you.  My days are passing by. My plans are broken. My dreams are shattered."[10]   Life may require us to start again—and it’s never too late to start over. One of life’s certainties is that everyone will experience failure at something at some point. Life is never an unbroken series of victories. Setbacks, losses, and sometimes defeat will happen and may overwhelm us. Defeat may be thrust upon us by circumstance or by others, or we may defeat ourselves by our own thoughts and actions. When this happens, some give up, some persist until they succeed, and others are willing to start over again. Luke 7:11-15 gives the account of the widow of Nain, on her way to bury her only son, crying, distraught after losing another close family member. On the way, Jesus saw her, had compassion, and acted.  The woman must have thought, "Is He kidding? Does He know what I've been t...

DIVINE VISION!

Jeremiah 1:1-11 NASB The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, [2] to whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. [3] It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the exile of Jerusalem in the fifth month. [4] Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, [5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” [6] Then I said, “Oh, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, Because I am a youth.” [7] But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ Because everywhere I send you, you shall go, And all that I command you, you shall speak. [8] “Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to save you,” declares the Lord. [9] Then the Lord stretch...

RESISTANCE FROM STEPPING INTO PURPOSE!

John 16:33 AMPC I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]   Stepping into your God-given purpose is one of the most powerful decisions you will ever make. But it is also one of the most resisted. The Bible makes it clear that whenever God calls a person, opposition rises—externally, internally, and spiritually. Jesus Himself tells us that trials will come, but His victory gives us courage and peace. Every believer must understand this: resistance is not a sign that you’re in the wrong place; it is often proof that you’re stepping into the right one. Everyone called by God faces resistance! Throughout Scripture, the moment people stepped into divine purpose, they faced pushback. ...
