THE POWER OF THE WORD





And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ. 
EPHESIANS 3:9

Another unfathomable treasure we have obtained as believers is the revelation of the immeasurable power of God’s Word. This revelation begins with understanding that God “created all things by Jesus Christ.” Like the “fellowship of the mystery,” in these few words we are presented with a truth that is foolishness to the natural mind. 

All of creation is the work of Jesus Christ because He is the living Word of God, and God created all things by His Word. John the apostle began his account of the Gospel with this same truth:

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 
JOHN 1:1-3

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
 JOHN 1:14

Jesus is the Word incarnate, and God continues to create all things through His Word, Jesus Christ. As John says, “Without him was not any thing made that was made.” When God spoke, it was the Word, Jesus Christ, who caused God’s intent to come into being, and that is true today.

When God speaks, it is the Word who causes miracles to happen, the sick to be healed, the sinners to be forgiven, the demons to flee, and the weak to be made strong.

Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. 
HEBREWS 11:3

God speaks from the invisible realm and the Word brings forth a visible reality. We were not a people—not a Church—until Jesus Christ spoke the intent of God into existence and said, “Let there be.” The same creative Word that created light in a dark void created salvation in a heathen heart!
To those who marveled and wondered, How can this be that God would include Gentiles in His plan? Paul said, “It is by the same power that God created the world out of nothing. The Gentiles were brought in and the Church was born out of the mouth of God.”

God sends His Word and His Word causes things to come into existence that were not previously seen or known. God sent His Word in the form of flesh-and-blood humanity into this world and by Christ Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection, He caused a Church to be birthed that had not existed before.

God spoke in your heart the truth of Jesus Christ, you believed in Him, and you were birthed again in your spirit. God spoke and the Holy Spirit filled your being so that you entered a new realm of existence—you in Christ and Christ in you forever. 

When God speaks, reality happens! His Word is full of grace and power, fully effectual to bring about anything He desires. One of the main reasons we praise and worship God, one of our motivations and greatest joys, is this fact that God continues to create life and wholeness and purpose out of things that seem dead and broken and void of purpose. We are what we are today because God spoke His Word and made us and remade us and continues to remake us. Everything we need, desire, hope for, and believe for is created and will be created by the power of His Word. Nothing is beyond the power of God, and that power is expressed and manifested through His Word.

Whatever He desires to exist, He speaks it into existence! And we partake of the unsearchable riches of Christ when we speak and proclaim His Word in the earth today. When we think and act and speak in accordance with God’s Word, all the forces of nature, every demon, and even the angels of heaven must obey because God’s Word is the final authority in all matters and in all situations! Every knee must bow to the name of Jesus, who is the Living Word.

In Hebrews 1:3 we read that Jesus Christ is, even today, “upholding all things by the word of his power.” When God speaks, His Word has power embedded within it to do what God sends it to do and it will sustain that work forever.

For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. 
ISAIAH 55:10-11

When you speak what God speaks and you speak it according to His will, His Word prevails over any attack and destroys any obstacle the enemy presents you with. When you live according to God’s Word and believe, all things are truly possible. Now, that is unfathomable wealth!

The Blessings

I am created for blessing. As a result, I am fruitful in every good thing and I multiply and increase in blessing. Because my God has blessed me, no curse can touch me. In the name of Jesus Christ and by the power of His blood, I decree His covenant of blessing around my life and all that pertains to me. Nothing but blessing is permitted to come into my life or sphere of influence. If the enemy attempts to attack me, he will be caught in the act and pay sevenfold what he stole and then I will plunder his house, for I only accept blessing. His attempts create testimonies of God’s increased blessings in my life. Like Abraham, I am blessed and am called to be a blessing. Through my life in Jesus, nations are blessed. Blessings come upon me and overtake me. Blessings are attracted to me. I am a blessing magnet. I am blessed coming in and blessed going out. I am blessed in the city and blessed in the field. The heavens are open over my life and  the rain of God’s abundant goodness falls...

Intimacy with the Most High

Intimacy With the Most High How important is it to us to dwell in the place of communion with God? What price will we pay to experience the presence and glory of God? That I may know Him Philippians 3:7-11 7 But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. 8 Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ. 9 and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith; 10 that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, 11 if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. Philippians 1:21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. Apostle Paul made “knowing Christ” His primary passion. He laid aside everything else s...

2021 YEAR OF DOMINION

2021 YEAR OF DOMINION     There’s a phrase which I don’t like at all. Undoubtedly, you’ve heard it too, usually in drawn out, religious sounding tones when circumstances seem to fall short of what God has promised us in His Word. “Well...God is sovereign.” Of course, without question, God is sovereign. But what people are really saying behind that statement is, “You never know what God is going to do.” The problem with that view of sovereignty is it releases us of all responsibility. After all, if God is sovereign, He will do what He wants to anyway, so we might as well go watch television and forget about it, right? Wrong. According to Psalm 8:6 , God Himself put mankind in charge, gave us dominion, and put all things under our feet. He doesn’t intervene in the affairs of the Earth whenever He wants. He respects the dominion and authority He has given us. Are all things under your feet today? If not, it’s time to take a closer look at what dominion really means.   1. Do...
