The Living Word
Hello everyone,
How are you doing on this day? I hope well and
bubbling in the Lord. I want the Word of God to be real, to be active, and to
feel the potency of it. Hebrews 4v12-13 (New Living Translation) says “For the
word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged
sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes
our innermost thoughts and desires. Nothing in all creation
is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before His eyes, and He is
the one to whom we are accountable.”
God’s Word is alive and it is living, and it is
powerful. Jesus is the Word of God and He is the Word of Life, in Him is light
and the light is the life of men. 1 John 1v1-3 (Classic Amplified Bible) says “[We
are writing] about the Word of Life [in] Him Who existed from the beginning,
Whom we have heard, Whom we have seen with our [own] eyes, Whom we have gazed
upon [for ourselves] and have touched with our [own] hands. And the Life [an
aspect of His being] was revealed (made manifest, demonstrated), and we saw [as
eyewitnesses] and are testifying to and declare to you the Life, the eternal
Life [in Him] Who already existed with the Father and Who [actually] was made
visible (was revealed) to us [His followers]. What we have seen and [ourselves]
heard, we are also telling you, so that you too may realize and enjoy fellowship as partners and partakers with us. And
[this] fellowship that we have [which is a distinguishing mark of
Christians] is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ (the Messiah).”
God desires our fellowship. One distinguishing
mark of Christians is that we have eternal life. “And this is the way to have
eternal life—to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent
to earth.” (John 17v3, New Living Translation). One way we know the Lord is by
reading and meditating on His Word. May His Word become alive to us and real to
us in Jesus name, amen.
Prayer
Father, I thank You for the eternal life that You
have given to us. Thank You for that fellowship we have with the Father and the
Son, and the Holy Spirit. Lord we pray, as we read Your written Word, let it
become alive and real to us in Jesus name, amen. Let there be illumination o
God, in Jesus name, amen.
Perhaps you do not have this eternal life; you do
not have fellowship with the Father and the Son, and do not have the Holy
Spirit in you and with you. God desires a relationship with you dear one.
Because of sin, man was separated from Him, and He sent Jesus to die as a
sacrifice for that sin. But you have to accept that indeed you are a sinner and
that you want Jesus to be your Saviour, the One who rescues you. If you want to
do that, you can say this prayer:
Heavenly Father, I come to You today. I
acknowledge that I am a sinner and need a Saviour. I want to be Your own. I believe
that Jesus is the Son of God and accept Him as my Lord and personal Saviour.
Thank You for accepting me as Your own. In Jesus name, amen.
Welcome into the family of God. Do begin to
attend a Bible-believing church. Feel free to send me a message if you have
questions.
