FAITH CAPSULE: The word of God is alive and demands attention.

Jeremiah 1 

The word of God is God.
John 1:1 points out, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
The word of God is living and powerful.
Hebrews 4:12 enlightens, “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.”
The word of God is the power and made all.
John 1:3 confirms, “All things were made through Him, and without Him, nothing was made that was made.”
Unquestionably, the living word of God is the power to make possibility out of impossibility in every area of life.
Do you have an understanding of the word of God?
Do you know the power of the word of God?
The majority do not know the word of God but only know about the word of God.
Jesus, in one of His journeys, must have realized the lack of understanding of the word of God by the people when He spoke rhetorically, “Why do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word.” (John 8:43)
Understanding the word of God to experience the power of the living word of God demands a LISTENING-ABILITY.
One with listening ability shall experience the characters of the word of God to gain the edge in the journey of life.  
ONE OF THE CHARACTERS OF THE WORD OF GOD IS: 
THE WORD OF GOD IS MOVE-ABLE TO LOCATE AND GIVE DIRECTION 
The living word of God is life, move-able to locate whomever God chooses to give direction in the journey of life.
Jonah received the calling of God when the word located him with the direction.
Jonah 1:1-2, “Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before Me.” 
The word of God located Jonah.
Jeremiah was located by the word of God several times for direction and to see in the unseeable situation. 
Jeremiah testifies, “The word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Jeremiah, what do you see?” And I said, “I see a branch of an almond tree.” Then the Lord said to me, “You have seen well, for I am ready to perform My word.” (Jeremiah 1:11-12)
The living word of God does not stagnate but moves. 
The word of God moved to call Jonah for direction, to call on Jeremiah to see the unseeable situation, for him to move, not to become a failure in the assignment of God over his life.

Prayer for today: Ask that the word of God will locate you to live life for His will.
