Title: The Power of Words to change things    
  
  
  
  

   

  
  
  
  


Words make a difference.   The Truth is the Truth whether it is spoken or not.   But, its power is released when it is spoken.   

In the first occurrence of the word 'word' the Lord clarifies His preferred relationship with man.   
After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am your shield, and your exceeding great reward.
The Lord tells Abram to fear not.     He is telling him to get fear our of his life so that only faith remains.     

Despite all the blessing that the Lord heaped upon Abram, the Lord Himself was Abram's great reward.

In the second occurrence of the word 'word' the Lord clarifies who the heir of the promise was:
And, behold, the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, This shall not be your heir; but he that shall come forth out of your own bowels shall be your heir.
Isaac is promised.

He further clarifies His relationship to us to be communicated among us: !insert 19:61
The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
We can have perfect confidence in the words of the Lord.     He is faithful.

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
This represents a desire to be in agreement with the Lord.     It is a heart that actually loves the Lord.

By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

How sweet are your words unto my taste!     yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
To love the Word is to love the Lord.     He is His Word and His Holy Spirit.

A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.
Tree, Word Power, WordBlessing

Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
God created us in His Image ().      He gave us the Powers of Imagination and Speech.     

Just as God is Life He has given us Life.     Just as God's Words accomplish His Will so our words have the Power to accomplish our Will.     

When God Speaks He Speaks in Faith, knowing that what He has Spoken will be ().      The Holy Spirit who is the Power of God gives substance to His Words ( ).     

Jesus made it possible for us to become New Spirit beings () as God is Spirit ().     

Jesus made it possible for our Body to be Filled with the Holy Spirit ( ).     

As Spirit Filled New Creatures we are One with the Father () and therefore have His Will as our Will ().     

In this mature state of Faith and Relationship we can Speak the Words of God and see the Will of God manifested just as our Lord Jesus did ().     

Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What do you?
King Jesus speaks and His Holy Spirit power brings it to pass.     

Christ Jesus answers to no one.     He is above all.     

The Holy Spirit is upon me; because He has anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
The Holy Spirit in Jesus made Him the Christ who Preached the Gospel to us.

But what says it?     The word is near you, even in your mouth, and in your heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
The Word Of Faith is our objective in terms of operating in the Spirit.     relationship is still paramount but our ability to affect the world is dependent on the Word and our utilization of it by speaking the Word Of Faith,

Those who would discount Word Of Faith do not grasp the authority and power delivered to us through Christ Jesus by His Holy Spirit.

So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of the Lord.
We are totally dependent on reaching people through the Word Of The Lord.     It is the Truth.     It is revelation, It is salvation, It is victory, It is peace, It is love.     It is joy in the Holy Spirit.

How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed?     and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?     and how shall they hear without a preacher?
Reversing the order we find that:
    a preacher must be sent
    the preacher must preach the Gospel
    the hearer must believe the Gospel
    the believer must call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ
    the Holy Spirit and Word birth them into the kingdom

For after that in the wisdom of the Lord the world by wisdom knew not the Lord, it pleased the Lord by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
There is no substitute for preaching the Gospel of Grace Through Faith for the unbeliever to be saved.     It may seem foolish to preach and it may seem foolish to believe but that is the prescription.

Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
This is an amazing verse!     Let's enumerate the points it makes:
    Jesus is the epitome of God's Glory
    Jesus is how God looks
    Jesus holds everything together by the Word of His Power
    Jesus has purged all sin by himself
    Jesus is seated at the right hand of Majesty
This profound statement speaks to the fact that matter exists and is ordered by the command of the eternal Word by the eternal Spirit.     

It explains why science is unable to fathom the essence of matter.     They have reached the point where the energy to inspect the smaller particles moves them (Heisenberg uncertainty principle).     
If they were able to keep delving they would find nothing material, only Jesus' spoken Word!     

The Holy Spirit is The Majesty.     Jesus is His physical form.     The Majesty is not defined by dimensions.     He is infinite.     Jesus' body is finite but He is the focal point of The Majesty.     We cannot 'see' His Holy Spirit in the same way we 'see' Jesus.     -

For the word of the Lord is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
The Word of the Lord destroys our Sin Nature and makes us a New Spirit being.     
    If we stay in the Word it will transform our minds to the Mind Of Christ.     
    If we trust the Word it will heal our Bodies.     
    By the Word and the Holy Spirit we come to have the thoughts and intents of the Lord so purifying our hearts.

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
This is the order of the day to all believers.     

We are each called to publicly proclaim the Gospel.     
We are always to be ready to share the Truth
We are to reprimand and censure those who sin.     
We are to express strong disapproval of evil.     
We are to strongly encourage people to receive Christ.     
We are to stay within the authority of the scriptures with these actions.     

We need to understand that we are not to harangue individuals with the Gospel, just make sure everyone we know hears it from us.

But sanctify the Lord in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asks you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
How do we sanctify the Lord in our hearts?     
By the washing of water of the Word .     

We are able to give an answer for the reason of our hope by growing in Grace and knowledge our Lord Jesus Christ and by praying in the Holy Spirit.     

Our testimony of Jesus Christ should be with power and authority.     This is how Peter spoke on the day of Pentecost.

Jesus answered and said unto them, Truly I say unto you, If you have faith, and doubt not, you shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if you shall say unto this mountain, Be you removed, and be you cast into the sea; it shall be done.
Jesus is speaking an 'unbelievable' Truth.     He is telling us that the Lord has made faith available for us to do anything.

The Word Of The Lord is powerful.   When we speak the Word Of The Lord with the authority of the Holy Spirit it accomplishes God's will.   

We are the Lord's voice and hands in this age of the world.   If we don't speak, if we don't touch, there is no power released to change lives.   

Let Christ manifest through you!   Speak to Him.   Speak of Him.   


All words have power, even the words of Satan and his children.   

When we were unregenerated we were at the mercy of all words whether good or evil.   

The Truth sets us free from the power of words which conflict with the Truth.   

Cruelty, pride, one-up-man-ship and outright hate are not going to disappear.   Our only defense against such is the knowledge of the Truth.   
    I am accepted in the beloved.   
    I am complete and secure in Him.   
    I need no one else's approval, support or encouragement.   

Each of us must enter into the strength of standing in Christ Jesus or we will be at the mercy of the unregenerate who use words to steal, kill and destroy at their father's behest.a
