THE INEGRITY OF GOD’S WORD!

EVERYDAY IN THE WORD!

SATURDAY NOVEMBER 30, 2019.

SUBJECT: THE INTEGRITY OF GOD’S WORD! 

Memory verse: "Forever, O LORD, Your word is settled in heaven.” (Psalm 119 vs 89.) 

READ: Isaiah 55 vs 10 - 11: 

55:10: For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return not there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

55:11: So shall My Word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

INTIMATION:

God embodies all truth, therefore, He cannot lie. Because God is truth, you are secured in His Word; you don’t need to wonder if He will change His mind or plans, and by His nature He cannot change (Malachi 3 vs 6; Hebrews 13 vs 8) hence the Scripture recognizes the immutability of His Word (see Hebrews 6 vs 17 - 18). The integrity of the Word is the basis of faith, hence Paul called it "The Word of faith" (Romans 10 vs 8). The reason for unbelief and a faltering faith is a lack of assurance of the integrity of the promises in the Word. God's Word is an embodiment of His faith. When you understand rightly the integrity of God's Word, you will then appreciate why David said the Word is sweeter than honey to his mouth (Psalm 119 vs 103). 

In Hebrews 11 vs 3 the Bible states: "By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible." God called the universe into existence out of nothing; He declared that it was to be, and it was. Our faith is in the God who created the entire universe by His Word. God's Word has awesome power.

God is the same with His Word, and linked Himself with His Word hence He named Jesus "the Word." He is back of His Word, and He cannot be separated from His Word (John 1 vs 1). The same Word became flesh and dwelt among us (John 1 vs 14), and more than 2500 years of the coming of Christ, the Word had the same creative and powerful effects when spoken by Him.

Here are some facts about the Word; (1) The Word is always now; (2) It has been, it is, and it will be, the voice of God; (3) It is never old, it is always fresh and new; (4) To the heart that is in fellowship with the Father, the Word is a present-tense, living voice from heaven; (5) The Word is like the author: Eternal, Unchanging, Living.

Jesus is the guarantor for every word from The New Testament (Matthew 1 vs 1 to Revelation 22 vs 21). All heaven is back of the Word; the very throne of God is back of the Word; and Jesus and the Father are back of the throne. 

Jesus said in John 16 vs 28: "I came from the Father, and am come into the world; again, I leave the world, and go unto my Father." The Word came into the world from the Author and has gone to be with the Author, having the same power. When you speak the word, you are speaking God and the Son Jesus into the situation. 

Now that you have known the unchanging nature and efficacy of His Word (Psalm 33 vs 11; Isaiah 14 vs 24; 40 vs 8), as well as the purity and power in the Word (Proverbs 30 vs 5; Psalm 12 vs 6; Psalm 18 vs 30; Hebrews 4 vs 12), and how He hastens to perform His Word (Jeremiah 1 vs 12), search, and locate the desired Word applicable to the situation of concern in your life. Jesus clearly stated that all authority has been given to Him in heaven and on earth (Matthew 28 vs 18), and He handed us the same authority to the believers in His name. The Word spoken in His name works wonders (Mark 16 vs 15 - 18).

For instance, if you are having any health challenges, see Psalm 107 vs 20, how God sent His Word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. Speak the Word in Isaiah 53 vs 4 - 5, Matthew 8 vs 17, First Peter 2 vs 24, into your health situation; "Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; and by His stripes we are healed; He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses" in His body nailed them on the Cross that we might be free and are freed. Keep saying it, don't stop saying it, and the result is sure to come. Though it may tarry, be patient and wait for it, for it shall surely come. 

There is a Word for every situation in life. Locate the Word for what you are requesting, sow the seed by speaking the Word (Luke 8 vs 11), and when sowed on good soil (the good soil is the qualifying conditions mentioned above), you are certain of bearing good fruit of up to a hundredfold.

While locating the Word don't loose site of the qualifying conditions to bring the power in the Word into action. These are: (1) you must be a believer; (2) you must not hold a grudge against another person (Mark 11 vs 25); (3) you must not pray with selfish motives; (4) your request must be for the good of God's kingdom; (5) you must have faith in God and His Word, not faith in the object of your request.

Prayer: Abba Father, You all given us all things in Your Word. Engrace me to daily search the Scriptures for Your Word that I may lead a triumphant life, overcoming all circumstances by Your Word, in Jesus’ Name I prayed. Amen.

PRAISE THE LORD!
