THE SPOKEN WORD 03/14/2010
The Spoken Word 2 Timothy 3:16 Last week we saw that the word tells us that all scripture was inspired by God himself. How did He inspire them to write His word? It was with the spoken word. He spoke it by way of His spirit into the hearts of man just like He does today. I also shared with you that the word (Jesus) will not return void. Everything that God the Father spoke, like Jesus (His word did not return unto Him void) Before Jesus died He spoke, It is finished and so everything was done. John 14:23-27 Jesus was telling His disciples that the word, that they were hearing was the word of the Father. How can the Holy Spirit bring all things into our remembrance, if we’ve never heard His word spoken? And this spoken to us by inspiration of His spirit. 1 John 2:27 The Holy Spirit (God’s anointing) will bring the word forth from out of your heart. Now is His spoken word the only thing that has power to work in our lives? James 3:5-8,10 Remember that you have the power of life and death in your tongue. Your words do matter. You are anointed with God’s spirit and out of your mouth you are speaking blessings or cursings. The spirit world is controlled by the word of God. Who is the word? Jesus. Whose name is the greatest name? Jesus. Who has been given all authority over life and death? Jesus. So yes, your words do matter. The bible says that we are ensnared by the words of our own mouth. It also says that it is what comes out of our mouth that defiles us. Now that we have established that God’s word is the real spoken word. And we have the power in the words that we speak. How we should be careful of the words that we choose. The bible tells us that it is God’s word that will not return void. We need to know His word so that we can speak the word which has power to change our circumstances. When the word of God is spoken by man we need to listen for God to speak it to us in the spiritual realm. Our natural mind is controlled by speaking God’s word over it. Mark 4:14-20 The word is sown by God. It depends on the condition of your ground and how it is received. Your ground is your heart. What is the condition of your heart? Well there is hope for you, this same word can be spoken to fill up your ground. Exodus 11:19-20 The word of God will change our stoney hearts and give us a new and refreshed spirit so we can hear the word of the Lord. Romans 10:17 Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the spoken word of God. If we say the word of God doesn’t work for me, this is spiritual law, what ever you speak, negative or positive, will be for you. Negative words also come by hearing. We need to know and speak the spoken word of God to change us and the things in our lives. The word of God is the will of God! Do you want to walk in His will for your life? We need to know that there is a spiritual law at work. Proverbs 18:21 Tells us that there is life or death in our tongues. The word will not happen just because it is His will for us. There are too many people who are still sick, broke and defeated in our world. We must speak His word to increase, to be healed, to have authority, to live, to bless, to encourage, to bind and to loose, to set at liberty. We need His word for everything! Matthew 1:1-4 Man does not live by bread alone. If you are not feeding on His word your spirit man is dead. We need both the word and bread to live in this world. Hebrews 11:1 God’s word produces faith for us to believe in what we can’t see. So our faith to believe in the impossible comes by hearing the spoken word from God. Get into the word because God is speaking! CommentsLeave a Reply |
