“The Word”

 Isaiah 56:11

It is the same with My Word.  I send it out and it always

produces fruit.  It will accomplish all I want it to, and it

will prosper everywhere I send it.  (NLT)

     The wisdom of God's Word is infinite.  It is always perfect and it never changes.  It is always right and never leads anyone astray. It is always fair and just. It is absolutely true and nothing can stand against it.  It is our lifeline to God and our only hope.  God’s Word brings life, not death.  It saves, rather than destroys.  It heals instead of wounds.  It nourishes our lives and keeps us healthy.  It is food for our souls and it makes us wise.  It builds us up, instead of tearing us down.  It is solid as a rock and stands firm in every storm.  It endures all things.  The Word of God is full of living power.  It is sharper than the sharpest knife, cutting deep into our innermost thoughts and desires.  It is a lamp for our feet and a light for our paths.  It gives us understanding and joy.  The Word of God never disappoints us, nor does it ever lie.  It is always faithful and brings us comfort.  It protects us from the Enemy and gives us peace.  It is eternal.  It cannot be disproved and will never be defeated.  It will teach you about the One who created you and why you exist.  It will show you how to make the best of what you have.  It will show you the best way to live this life, and it will tell you what lies beyond this short life.  It is the only Source for Truth. 

     If you wanted to know how a car works and how to fix it when it is broken, the best person to give you that information is one who either makes them or fixes them.  And the same also applies to our broken world and our broken lives.  The Lord God created life and He knows everything about it, including how to fix us when we are broken.  Living apart from the Word, is both foolish and frivolous.  For without God’s Word, my friend, your short life will end in vain and go into something that is far worse and longer lasting.

                                      A Whisper of Hope

I gave you My Word, dear child…so that you would know how much I love you.  My Word is the only hope you have in this evil world that worships the dark things of Satan.  I have given you My life and My blood to save you.  Now give Me your life in return.

John 1:1-5

In the beginning the Word already existed.  He was with God,

and He was God. He was in the beginning with God.  He created

everything there is.  Nothing exists that He didn’t make.  Life itself

was in Him, and this life gives light to everyone.  The Light shines

through the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.  (NLT)

                        Your words are what sustain me.  

     They bring me great joy and are my heart’s desire.

                                  (Jeremiah 15:16)
