For the word of God is living and powerful,
and sharper than any two-edged sword,
piercing even to the division of soul and spirit,
and of joints and marrow,
and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.. Hebrews 4:12
God’s word, God’s words are not just any words
In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God. John 1:1
When you read God’s word,
you are reading His heart, His character, His likeness
His word is alive as He is a living God
Jesus is the Word
And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood:
and His name is called The Word of God. Revelation 19:13
Speaking the word is powerful in and of itself
God’s word will not come back empty
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. Isaiah 55:11
Speaking the word in faith is a form of battle
Keeping in mind, Jesus is the One who battles for us
We can remind ourselves, even strengthen our own faith,
by reading and speaking His word:
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Romans 4:17
Hearing with our spiritual ears,
praying God’s word over the circumstances in our lives
and letting the sword of the spirit have its way in our circumstances
