FAITH CAPSULE: The word of God is the power of God.
Hebrews 4
The Old and New Testaments record the importance of knowing about the word of God.
Deuteronomy 4:2 warns, “You shall not add to the word which I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.”
Are you taking away or adding to the word of God?
Hebrews 4:12 introduces what the word of God is about for all, “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.”
Give yourself to know the word of God that is magnified by God as Psalm 138:2 states, “For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.”
The word of God is the power of God over any force or activity of darkness.
Psalm 105 states, “He sent darkness and made it dark, and they did not rebel against His word.”
The word of God is power for healing and deliverance.
Psalm 107:20 made it known, “He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.”
Calling on God by His word, God shall intervene.
God will not fail to send His magnified word against challenges.
Are you full of the word of God?
One full of the word of God will not be quiet but know to call for the magnified word of God in times of challenge.
Jesus was with His disciples when He demonstrated the power of the word of God that can calm a troubling wind and sea as He traveled on the sea.
The Bible records, “Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him. And suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep. Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!” But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. So, the men marveled, saying, “Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?” (Matthew 8:23-27)
Jesus spoke the word to calm the troubling wind and sea.
As a believer of the word of God, in the troubling challenge, speak the word of God that delivers and preserves from evil agenda.
Listen, power belongs to the word of God to rebuke and calm any challenge that ravages your world.
Give yourself to the word of God that will build you to give you abundant life.
The word of God speaks to all.
