The Anointed Word of God

Psalm 119:130 "The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple."

The words of almighty God are powerful beyond our wildest imagination. With words He created the entire universe. They were His only tools to form everything out of nothing. He spoke out of infinite wisdom, and both the heavens and the earth were established. He simply uttered words that were in His loving heart, and all creatures that exist today were designed to total perfection.

God's words are light and life to all who hear them. He makes the crooked way straight and puts the impossible within man's reach. Even though we were once condemned to death as a penalty for our transgressions, we are set free by the Word of almighty God Himself. He has decreed that if we believe in His Son, Jesus Christ, and all that He did for us, that we are saved to eternal life.

With words the Lord created mankind and with words He sustains us. Everything that proceeds out of the mouth of our all-knowing God has a distinct meaning and purpose. He is determined to share all that He is and all that He has with us. We have mercy, grace and favor with Him. The words that He speaks redeem us; convict us of any shortcomings; and lead us into righteousness and godliness.

Proverbs 1:23 "Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you."

The Lord speaks to men and gives them awesome, spiritual gifts, so that they can be all that they are called to be. He created us in His very own image and likeness, and we have power and authority to speak what He says and do what He tells us. Our words that line up with those of almighty God are true dynamos, capable of changing our world and everyone in it to conform to His wishes.

We have divine destinies to fulfill as His sons and daughters. We have to overcome all evil with good, so that Jesus Christ can return to rule and reign. We will speak God's awesome words and see dramatic results in every area of our lives. We will introduce the government of God and His justice system. All of mankind will be impacted by our words, and the Lord will be glorified in us.

Words will be our tools for creativity and our weapons for spiritual warfare. We will bring blessings to the earth and destroy all evil by overcoming it with good. We will bind Satan and all of his minions, so that there is peace, order and stability everywhere. There will be no more war, violence, conflict, poverty and lack. We will establish God's express will on earth for all mankind to benefit.

Exodus 4:15 "And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth: and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do."

The whole world will be revolutionized by the Word of God, as it is spoken through His people. We will reveal His law in all of its power and authority. His way of thinking and doing things will be implemented everywhere. We will bring order and stability to all of our human affairs. There will be no more strife and division that separate us from one another or displease our heavenly Father.

All of creation will be positively affected by our faith-based words. We will command harmony in the plant and animal kingdoms and speak to the climate, so that it is always temperate and predictable. We will reverse all the negative effects of pollution, and restore all of nature back to its original beauty and balance. The earth and everything in it will be purged, cleansed and purified of all evil.

If we diligently study the Word of God and speak only what He speaks, we will be able to usher in the Kingdom of God in all of its glory. We will literally alter the face of the entire planet and prepare the hearts of all mankind to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. The Word will change lives as nothing else can, and release men from their sins to the blessings of eternal life.

Job 22:22 "Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart."

The Word of God will set the perfect standard for our lives. We will tear down all demonic strongholds and establish Kingdom principles of fairness and justice for all. We will speak to all world governments and insist that they abolish war, violence and conflict in their dealings with one another. We will eradicate all poverty and lack, and introduce peace, prosperity and security to everyone.

We will give all mankind hope for their future and demonstrate the very love, mercy and compassion of God Himself. Men will be delivered from their bondage to sin and evil. We will lay hands on the sick and they will be healed. We will tear down all demonic strongholds. We will even raise the dead back to life again, if we speak the Word of almighty God in all of its power and authority.

All of creation will respond to our faith-filled words and be restored to its original beauty and balance. We will command everything to line up with the Word of God and be in perfect harmony. The climate will be regulated, so that there are no more natural catastrophes. Plants and animals will be totally compatible with one another and subject to man again, as they once were in the Garden of Eden.

Deuteronomy 4:2 "Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish [ought] from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you."

Our words have the inherent ability to create or destroy. We will not ever add or subtract from what God tells us. We will be totally obedient to say and do all that He requires of us. We will fulfill our divine destinies as His very own sons and daughters. If we are fully cooperative with Him, we will change the fate of the entire world. All mankind will be challenged with the truth.

We will utterly destroy Satan and all of his efforts to oppress men and keep them in bondage to sin and evil. We will share our faith with power and conviction, so that all those who are open to repent of their sins and be baptized in Jesus' name will be set free. We will make the awesome Word of God available to all men, women and children who are willing to receive it as their own.

The Lord wants to gather us into the Kingdom of God, and we will make certain that everyone has an equal opportunity to receive its blessings. Every race, tongue and nation will hear His Word and be touched by it. The Gospel will change lives forever and entitle many souls to receive the gift of eternal life. We will teach men to obey the commandments and show love for God and others.

We will speak God's words and heal all those who are sick and afflicted among us. The blind will see; the deaf will hear; and the lame will walk through our efforts. We will cast out all demons that torment men and even raise the dead back to life once again, as Christ Himself did. Nothing will be impossible to us, if we know the Word and speak it out of our mouths, as the Lord directs us.

The Power of the Tongue

Ecclesiastes 5:2 "Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter [any] thing before God: for God [is] in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few."

We can never speak an idle word or we will be held accountable by almighty God. He can strip us of power just as surely as He conferred it upon us. Our words are creative tools and weapons of spiritual warfare. We have to be fully instructed in the use of our tongues, or we could generate horrible, negative consequences to our lives and the lives of others.

Careless words could bring devastation and destruction on us. Vows made in haste can come back to haunt us. Harsh words could cause a spirit of offense to come between us. Critical, judgmental words can bring strife and division. Frivolous words are simply a waste of time and energy. Our words have to always be righteous and godly, so that they are productive.

The Lord backs up our faith-based words that line up with His very own. If we say what God says, we can be assured of great success in all of our situations and circumstances. However, if we speak against the Word of God, we will see detrimental results from our disobedience. We must guard our tongues at all times and be diligent to decree the Word verbatim.

The more we become accustomed to God's way of doing things, the greater the likelihood that we will prevail in all that we think, say and do on His behalf. We should seek the Lord for what we say. We can overcome the world, our flesh and the devil simply by being disciplined in what we speak. Our words must be carefully chosen to achieve the desired results.

Proverbs 13:3 "He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: [but] he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction."

The devil hates the Word of God and all that is represents to him. He knows that the words of our mouth either support God's Word or oppose it. He would like nothing more than to play us out of position, so that we sin with our mouths and speak rashly. We cannot succumb to that type of temptation. We have been given a sacred charge to speak only what God wants vocalized.

We should be slow to anger, regardless of the provocation, and never speak any retaliation. The Lord insists that we humble ourselves and forgive and forget all that others do to us. He will take vengeance on our enemies and vindicate us Himself. We need not rise up, combat others and settle our own scores. To do so can have disastrous results for all those who are concerned.

Those who speak against the Word of God risk eternal condemnation for lawlessness and rebellion. We cannot join in with them, or we will also be held accountable. Our mouths are to be used for godly purposes – to glorify God and bless others. We will be justified or condemned by our words for all of eternity. We will all face judgment for our works and our words.

Proverbs 18:21 "Death and life [are] in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."

Our words that line up with those of almighty God will be powerful for destroying all evil and overcoming it with good. We will vocalize exactly what God tells us and see miraculous results generated all around us. All world governments will be restructured and reorganized as a result of our commands to line up with principles of fairness and justice for all mankind. We will establish peace on the earth, as the Lord intends.

There will be no more poverty and lack that is driven by materialism, greed and covetousness. We will speak to men's hearts and encourage them to share all that they have with others. The wealth of the wicked will ultimately be redistributed to the righteous. No one will ever suffer from unmet needs again. The sons of God will make certain that all the resources of the universe are fairly and equally distributed to everyone.

All of nature will be orderly and stable once again, as a result of our faith-based words that are spoken in divine power and authority. We will decree total harmony to all the plants and animals. There will be no more predatory activities that harm any of God's creatures. We will reverse the effects of all pollution, and declare the climate to be regulated, so there are no more natural disasters that bring destruction to the earth.

Everything that we utter from our mouths will have a significant meaning and an exact purpose in the critical days that lie ahead. We will accomplish great feats for the Lord, if we are obedient to His Word and careful what we speak into existence. Our words will be fruitful and accomplish all that God intends. The Lord will be glorified in us, and generously reward us for our devoted service to Him and His people.

Words That Offend God

James 3:2 "For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same [is] a perfect man, [and] able also to bridle the whole body."

The sons and daughters of almighty God have been given a sacred charge. We are to speak what the Lord wants spoken on this earth and see dramatic results from our words. If we fail to do what is expected of us, important work will remain undone. We cannot sin with our tongues in any way, shape or form. We can never succumb to gossip, criticism or idle chatter.

The Lord is infinitely patient and merciful to His people, but He definitely has no tolerance for deliberate disobedience, lawlessness and rebellion. He is not a God of compromise. He has absolute standards for all that we think, say and do. If we abide by His Word and obey all of His commandments to us, we will continually maintain our right standing with Him.

None of us is perfect; we all make mistakes and fall short of the glory of God. What separates us one from another is our reaction to our sin. If we immediately repent of all wrongdoing and ask the Lord for His forgiveness, he will be quick to respond to us. He will always restore us to right standing with Him if we are truly remorseful and renounce all of our sins.

We can never make excuses for our bad behavior and expect the Lord to overlook it. His Word says that we must have faith in Jesus Christ, be obedient to His commandments and walk in love, or face eternal damnation. If any of those are lacking in us, we can be certain that we will be judged and held accountable. Soon there will be no more opportunity to repent.

Proverbs 6:2 "Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth."

If our words do not coincide with what God would speak, we will be punished. He will not permit us to sin with our mouths and injure one another or offend Him. He created us to be talking spirits in His very own image and likeness, and He cannot allow us to do damage with our words. We have been given a great privilege to be able to speak the Word of God to those around us.

We should always guard what we say, to ensure that we remain righteous and godly at all times. We must also be circumspect of what we hear others say, so it does not contaminate us in any way. What goes in our ears, gets down into our hearts and comes out of our very own mouths. It is wise to be particular about what we hear and speak, so that we prevent defilement to our spirit.

Believers are to be in the world, but not of it. We are expected to crucify our fleshly lusts and forego all our selfish soul ambitions. We must put our spirit man in ascendancy to our body and soul and be godly role models at all times, so that we can lead others to the Lord. If we imitate the laid down life of Jesus Christ, we will be totally victorious in all that we think, say and do.

He was eminently successful in all that He did, because He took time to pray and hear from His Father. Jesus never spoke in His own human wisdom, but relied on almighty God to tell Him what to say on every occasion. He was fully obedient to the Word of God and careful to speak it as He was instructed. We should do likewise, if we wish to be effective in our earthly ministry.

Malachi 2:17 "Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied [him]? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil [is] good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them; or, Where [is] the God of judgment?"

The Word of God is sharper than any two-edged sword, and cuts right to the heart of every matter. We dare not insult the Lord with words that minimize sin or encourage unrighteousness of any kind. He is not interested in excuses for our bad behavior or that of those who are still in the world. Sin is sin, and it requires payback. The penalty for sin is death and if we are not remorseful, the Lord will be compelled to relegate us to eternal damnation for our sin guilt.

We can never distort the Word of almighty God or pollute His Gospel message in any way. It is powerful for convicting men of their sins and exhorting them to accept the truth. We cannot alter the Word or put our own twist on it. That opens us up to the charge of heresy. There are many false teachers who will be banished to the lake of fire for perverting God's words to the detriment of others. The Word of God is sacred and inviolable and the Lord will defend it.

Very soon now, Jesus Christ will return to us to rule and reign in His everlasting Kingdom. He will not be a babe in the manger or the meek and mild Lamb of God this time. He has vengeance in His heart to punish all wrongdoers. He will judge each of us to determine whether we are righteous or evil. No one will escape His scrutiny or persuade Him to lower His perfect, impeccable standards. Anyone who has corrupted God's Word will be severely punished.

Psalm 59:12 "[For] the sin of their mouth [and] the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying [which] they speak."

All those who have sinned against almighty God and spoken proud and arrogant words will be held strictly accountable. Those who blaspheme the Holy Spirit in any way will not escape punishment. All word curses and lies will be severely judged. Words of fear, doubt or unbelief will generate the Lord's reprisal. Flattering, deceitful words that entice others to sin will not be overlooked. Any perversion of the Word that comes out of our mouths will be refuted.

The Lord will punish all wrongdoers that abuse their tongues for evil. He will banish them to the eternal lake of fire, where there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth for all time. He expects us all to obey His commandments and speak the truth with one another. We should use the words of our mouth to glorify God and bless men at all times and under all situations and circumstances. We can never distort the Word and expect to be held unaccountable for it.

The greater God's gift to us, the higher His expectations for its usage. We are responsible to speak words that line up with the very words of God Himself. We have genuine power and authority that has been conferred on us and we can never misuse it. We must speak the uncompromised Word of God and set men free in the truth of it, so that they can be saved to eternal life just as we are. The Gospel is eminently able to deliver them of all their transgressions.

Words That Please God

2Timothy 1:13 "Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus."

God's Word is light and life to all who hear it. We pay Him the highest compliment when we speak His words out of our mouths to enrich and encourage others. He will always back up our words that line up with His very own. We can be certain that they will never return to us void of power. They will succeed in everything that they were meant to accomplish.

If we are mature sons and daughters of almighty God who have been entrusted with His words, we must be diligent to share what we hear with others. We should preach the Gospel of the Kingdom of God in all of its power and see men released from their bondage to sin and evil. We are obligated to preach the Word, so that others can receive the free gift of eternal life.

We must give all of mankind hope for their future. No matter how bleak and dismal things might become, the Lord has a perfect plan in place for our eternal welfare. This world will never end, but it will line up with the Word of God. Everything will have to be cleansed and purified, so that we can usher heaven into the earth realm in the everlasting Kingdom of God.

When the full number of souls is gathered in the end-time harvest, the Lord will give the command for heaven to be brought to this earth. He will actually come and dwell with us for all of eternity. There will be no good thing that we lack in His awesome presence. He will grant us all peace and prosperity, safety and security, health and longevity, joy and freedom.

Matthew 10:27 "What I tell you in darkness, [that] speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, [that] preach ye upon the housetops."

We must share this good news with others. We are light and salt in a dark and troubled world. We cannot just be content with our own salvation. We have a responsibility to serve others, a sacred charge that has been given to us by Jesus Christ Himself. We are to walk like He walked on this earth, and resume His ministry where He left off when He went to be with His heavenly Father.

Christ shared the good news of the Kingdom with all whom He met. He forgave men their sins and healed the sick with the power of His words. He cast out demons and made men whole. He even raised the dead back to life again through words that mirrored those of His Father. Jesus was the consummate Word of almighty God Himself, and we have been chosen to follow in His footsteps.

We are the Body of Christ on the earth – His hands, feet and voice to all of humanity. Our function in the critical days ahead should not be minimized. We must share our faith, so that others can be set free as we have been. We have to confront all wickedness that we see and exhort men to seek the truth in the Word of God. We must be godly role models and warn all mankind of His judgment.

Our words that line up with God's Word will deliver men from their bondage to sin and evil and heal them of all their afflictions. There will be no sick and infirm among us, as we enter into Christ's everlasting Kingdom. We will destroy demonic strongholds that impede our work and overcome all evil with good. Nothing will be impossible to us if we wield the Word of God in all its power.

Zechariah 8:16 "These [are] the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates:"

We will speak to all world governments and challenge them in their political and social policies. We will eliminate all wars and violence and abolish all injustice. Men will be treated with fairness, dignity and respect, as the Lord requires. There will be no more poverty and lack when we confront the wicked and speak the Word to them, which insists that they share with others in need.

There will soon be peace, order and stability established in all of our human affairs. Men will learn to walk in love and unity and care for one another, as they do themselves. We will teach them to obey all of God's commandments, so that their lives can go well for them now and in the Kingdom to come. The entire world will be cleansed and purified, so that it lines up with the will of God.

The Lord will be pleased with all of our efforts on His behalf and ultimately give the command for heaven to be ushered into the earth realm in the Kingdom of God. We will dwell with both men and angels and our heavenly Father will come and take up residence here. There will be no more separation between us. He will be our God and we will be the people who are called by His holy name.

Words With a Purpose

Isaiah 50:4 "The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to [him that is] weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned."

God's words always have a specific meaning, purpose and intent. They are never just random comments that lack power and authority. The Lord backs up His Word with His personal oath, so that it will not return to Him void. Our words that line up with His own will accomplish mighty feats in the days to come. We have been given a sacred charge to speak light and life to all with whom we come in contact.

If we are sensitive to the Word of God and obedient to speak it out of our own mouths, we will see the fruit of it positively affect all of mankind. It offers hope and encouragement to those who are weary. It enlightens those who are in darkness and deception, and exhorts those who have strayed from the path that the Lord intends for them. It has the power to save us from all of our sins and bring us eternal life.

When we speak what God tells us, we see miracles abound everywhere. The wicked and unrepentant turn towards Him and ask for forgiveness. Those who are oppressed and in bondage to sin and evil are set free. Many are sanctified in the truth, so that they can embrace their divine destinies and serve almighty God and His people. If we are diligent to speak every word that the Lord tells us, we can change the world.

Our role is to usher in the everlasting Kingdom of God, so that His will can be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Everything will have to be cleansed and purified before Christ returns to us. We must be diligent to speak God's words that decree and declare His wishes. All of creation is waiting for the revealing of the sons of God, so we can bring liberty to the captives and introduce global peace, order and stability.

Jeremiah 5:14 "Wherefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them."

We will challenge all world governments to line up with God's Word and His will for us. Leaders will be confronted with the truth; wars, violence and conflict only lead to our demise. We will bring only justice and equality to all of our human affairs, if we diligently speak God's Word in all its power and authority. His way of doing things will ultimately be established on the earth.

All wickedness will soon be revealed and abolished. Men will no longer oppress one another with power and greed as their motives. Those who attempt to harm or defile their fellow man in any way will be punished for all time. The Lord will not tolerate His people being destroyed by anyone – man or devil. He will vindicate us Himself and take vengeance on all of our enemies.

There will be no more strife and division among us. Poverty and lack will be eliminated, as the wealth of the universe is redistributed. All social injustice will be a thing of the past. Men everywhere will be treated with fairness, dignity and respect. We will dwell in love and unity with one another, as the Lord desires, and He will gather us into the everlasting Kingdom of God.

Titus 2:11-15 "For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee."

Believers know the truth and are expected to walk in it at all times. We are the sons and daughters of almighty God Himself with divine destinies to fulfill. We have been bought with a dear price, the Blood of our Savior, Jesus Christ. We will serve the Lord with zeal and conviction, and minister in love, mercy and compassion to others. We will speak His words with divine power and authority and overcome all evil.

We have an obligation to warn mankind of the impending judgment that will come on all men and even angels. The Lord, Jesus Christ, will soon return to us. He has vengeance in His heart and He will destroy all the ungodly in this world. We will all be subjected to a strict scrutiny for our works in the flesh. No one will be exempt from eternal punishment if they have disobeyed God or hurt His people in any way.

The Lord has perfect, impeccable standards for our behavior. He will not tolerate deliberate rebellion in any of us. If we are disobedient and committed to sin and evil, we will perish in the eternal lake of fire. Only those who walk in love and keep all of God's commandments will be spared His wrath in the days to come. He will gather all of the righteous to Himself in the Kingdom of God and bless us for all eternity.

There is no good thing that we will ever lack. We will have endless peace and prosperity. The Lord will supply all our needs, even before we ask Him. He will change our bodies into glorious, resurrection forms that live forever free of disease and death. He will take vengeance on all of our enemies and restore all that has been lost to us over the years. We will dwell with Him forever more in a literal paradise on this earth.

1Timothy 6:3-5 "If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, [even] the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself."

Darkness and deception will cover the earth just before Christ's return to us. We must share our faith as the Lord arranges our contacts, so that others can be set free in the truth. The Gospel of Jesus Christ must be preached to all mankind, so that no one perishes for lack of knowledge. It alone has the power to save men from their sins, so that they can receive the free gift of eternal life.

God's Word is immutable and it will not return to Him void. If we obey all of His commandments and walk in love, we will inherit the Kingdom of God and all its many blessings. However, if we refuse to accept the powerful doctrine of salvation and persist in doing evil, we will be permanently condemned in our own ignorance and rebellion and be punished in the lake of fire.

Many false teachers will arise in the days to come, the Bible tells us. They will try to refute God's words and spread lies that will ultimately lead others into perdition. They excuse sin and glorify themselves, instead of almighty God. Their words will not help us as we enter into all of eternity. We must purposely choose to believe the uncompromised Word of God, and that alone.

Each of us has the personal responsibility to study God's Word and abide by sound doctrine. We cannot be seduced by flattering lips that care nothing for our eternal welfare. We must expose all lies and separate ourselves from those who dilute the truth or pervert the Gospel message. It is only through a sincere faith in Jesus Christ, and all that He did for us, that we can be redeemed.

How Jesus Used Words

Matthew 13:34 "All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:"

Jesus knew how very precious and powerful His words were to all those who heard them. He did not share God's wisdom and revelation with just anyone. He could discern the thoughts and hearts of all men and He only spoke the truth to those whom He knew would eventually receive Him. He spoke in parables to the masses, so that His words would not be challenged or refuted in any way.

Our Lord and Savior loved all of mankind, but He did not waste His time teaching those who were firmly committed to sin and evil. He revealed the truth only to those who were eager and receptive to it. He taught repentance to those who were sincere and contrite in heart. He gave instruction regarding the Lord's commandments and encouraged all His followers to be loving and obedient.

Christ spoke the Word of God in all of it power and authority, and many were amazed at His teaching. He was a diligent student of the Old Testament Himself, and He urged His disciples to study the Word of God for their own benefit. Jesus knew that we need the guidance and direction that only almighty God could provide. He only spoke what He was told to speak by His heavenly Father.

John 8:47 "He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear [them] not, because ye are not of God."

Christ was constantly challenged in His public ministry. He faced fear, doubt and unbelief everywhere He went. The average person tuned Him out. The religious leaders of His day labeled Him a rebel. They called Him a liar and a blasphemer even though He spoke the pure Word of God. Although He was totally obedient, and only spoke and did what He was instructed to do, Jesus suffered recrimination for His words.

He was continually threatened by those in the government and church hierarchy. They plotted and schemed to silence Him any way that they could. Christ was on a mission from almighty God Himself and He could not be deterred or detained until He had finished His work in its entirety. He was called to offer the Gospel of the Kingdom of God to all those who might be receptive to it, so that they could be set free.

Spiritual concepts are only grasped by those who know and love God. Through the intervention of His Holy Spirit, even simple, uneducated minds can receive divine truth. The Word of God has inherent power and authority to dispel all darkness and deception. However if men purposely reject it, it is usually because they are not of God. The Bible has the ability to enlighten all who embrace it with pure and humble hearts.

If we pray and ask the Lord to reveal His secrets to us, He will always be faithful to accommodate us. We can receive discernment through the power of His Holy Spirit. His words will light our path and bring healing and prosperity to us. They will set us free to pursue our divine destinies and serve the Lord and others. We will walk in a supernatural anointing if we diligently study and fully comprehend God's words.

Matthew 8:16 "When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with [his] word, and healed all that were sick:"

Our Lord and Savior was very wise for a human being. Even though He laid down His deity when He came to this earth, He operated in the divine wisdom of His Father by staying in constant prayer and meditation on the Word of God. He knew when to open His mouth and when to remain silent; His words always had specific meaning and purpose.

With words that lined up with those of His heavenly Father, Jesus cast out demons and set men free from their bondage and torment. He spoke healing to all of their afflictions, and if they believed His words, they were made whole. He taught His disciples with real power and authority. He even raised the dead back to life once again by the Word of almighty God.

Jesus rebuked fevers and all sorts of infirmity and it was forever banished. He spoke the Word and will of almighty God Himself to all those with whom He came in contact. Those who were called of God, always received what He had to say, while those who were evil rejected Him. Christ was totally obedient and successful in everything that He said and did.

His words were virtual powerhouses for good, and no one could refute them. He changed the course of human events through the words that He spoke. He left us with tremendous wisdom and revelation that is recorded in the gospels to this day. He preached the Kingdom of God and all its many benefits, so that we would have hope and confidence for our future.

Luke 8:24 "And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm."

Jesus Christ even spoke to the inclement weather and the roaring seas. Nature obeyed His words and immediately there was a calm established. He dispelled fear and dread from His disciples' minds, by asserting the Word of God in all of its divine power and authority. Christ also taught His followers that they could have whatever they spoke in faith.

If we are sincere believers in the Lord, Jesus Christ, then we have His supernatural abilities available to us, as well. He is the Head and we are His Body on this earth. We can do everything that He did, and even greater works, the Bible tells us. Our words that line up with those of almighty God Himself will work miracles, signs and wonders in the days ahead.

We will rise up in our kingly and priestly anointing and share the Gospel with zeal and conviction. We will gather in the full, end-time harvest of souls that is required. We will heal the sick of all their afflictions and cast out demons in Christ's name. We will even raise the dead by the words of our mouth. Nothing will be impossible to us if we speak the Word of God.

The Power Behind Our Words

John 14:10 "Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works."

God's Word is His perfect, express will for mankind. It never returns to Him void, but is always successful in that which it was sent to do. If we dwell in God and He dwells in us, our words are virtual powerhouses. We have been given the keys to the Kingdom of God. Whatever we bind on earth is also bound in heaven.

Whatever we loose on the earth with our words is also backed up by the power of almighty God Himself.

Our words alone are powerless without God's divine anointing on them. But if we speak what God tells us to say, they are transformed into supernatural tools of creativity. We must imitate the laid down life of Jesus Christ and only speak what God tells us, or we could very possibly see disastrous results from our careless words. We will be held accountable for every word that we speak as the disciples of Jesus Christ.

We have been given a sacred charge. The Lord needs our help in saving all of mankind from destruction. We can deliver them with persuasive, positive words that the Gospel teaches. Our words will convict them of sin and cause them to repent, be saved and baptized in Jesus' name. We can never underestimate the Word of God. It brings light and life to all that we see, if it is wielded with total faith, power and authority.

1Corinthians 2:4-5 "And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God."

The words that we speak, that line up with the Word of God, will revolutionize this entire world. We will eliminate all wars and civil unrest in our human affairs. Power and greed will be abolished. Social injustice will be thing of the past. There will be no more poverty and lack, death and destruction anywhere. The entire earth will be peaceful, orderly and stable, so the Lord can usher in His everlasting Kingdom.

We will confront all wickedness and evil and overcome it with good. The fate of all mankind will be impacted by our words. We will teach others that God loves them and prepare the hearts of all men, women and children to receive Jesus Christ their King. Those who are rebellious will be warned of the impending judgment and the eternal punishment that will result from their ignorance and disobedience.

Nothing that we speak will be negative or detrimental to the Lord's express will and divine purpose. We will be totally obedient to utter only those things that He wants spoken into the atmosphere around us. We will tear down all demonic strongholds of resistance that would deter or detain us in any way. We will speak exactly as instructed, and all of heaven will back up our words that line up with the Word of God.

The Lord will dispatch legions of angels to minister to His people that implement His eternal redemption plan for all mankind. We will see miracles, signs and wonders that result from our mere words that are spoken in conjunction with the will of almighty God. The entire earth will be impacted by our decrees and declarations. Nothing will be impossible to us if we are obedient to speak God's Word as it is intended.

1Peter 4:11 "If any man speak, [let him speak] as the oracles of God; if any man minister, [let him do it] as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen."

The Lord confirms His Word with attending miracles, signs and wonders that attest to its verity. Many will be attracted to the Word of God in the critical days to come, because they will be able to see physical manifestations of its power. We will heal the sick, cast out demons and even raise the dead to prove that the Lord is still in charge of our universe. Men will be won to the truth by the supernatural events they see.

As the Body of Jesus Christ on this earth, we must be diligent to do all that He asks of us. He will have us confront all world governments and establish Kingdom principles of justice and equality for all. We will speak to the hearts of leaders and influence them to eliminate all wars, violence and conflict from our human affairs. We will encourage all men to share what they have with those who are in need of any kind.

We will speak to all of creation and see dramatic changes in nature. All plants and animals will one day be in harmony with one another and subject to man, as they once were in the Garden of Eden. We will command the climate to be temperate and predictable and it will respond to us. There will be no more natural catastrophes that cause devastation and destruction. All effects of pollution will be totally reversed.

The entire earth will be impacted for good with the words that we speak. We will usher in the Kingdom of God in all its glory. The Lord will actually come and dwell with His people, and bless us with all the vast resources that the universe has to offer us. We will have peace and prosperity, safety and security, joy and freedom. He will change our mortal bodies to be like Christ's very own, and we will live for all of eternity.

The Anointed Word of God

Matthew 12:37 "For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned."

Jesus Christ taught us that we will be judged and held accountable for every word idle that we speak. Our words either justify or condemn us, depending upon what we choose to say. We can decree and declare the Word of God and see awesome results generated in the world around us. However, if we are negative in any way, we can bring disastrous results to our lives and those of others.

We have been delivered from the curse and all of its evil influence, through our faith in the redeeming work of Jesus Christ Himself. We should study and meditate on the Word of God, so that our minds are renewed in its truth and our behavior is transformed. If we think only positive, godly thoughts, we can be successful in all that we think, say and do in this world and in the Kingdom to come.

It will be possible for us to change the fate of the entire human race, simply by speaking God's words in all of their power and authority. We can decree peace on earth and justice for all of mankind. We can abolish all poverty and lack simply by persuading others to share their surplus with those in need. We can preach the Gospel, and see men saved to eternal life with all of its many benefits.

If we are diligent to speak the Word of God in all of its power we will work miracles, signs and wonders to attract others to our faith. We will restore all of creation back to its original beauty and balance. We will control the climate with our words and eliminate all natural disasters. Plants and animals will be subject to us and we will take dominion over the entire earth, as we are destined to do.

James 1:21 "Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls."

We should firmly desire to know the Word of almighty God and learn to responsibly speak it forth out of our very own mouths. We cannot ever be frivolous in our speech and hope to be entrusted with God's words that have genuine power and authority. We must crucify our flesh and all of its carnality and purify ourselves in the living Word that has the ability to save our souls from utter destruction.

The Word of God is light and life to all who find it. We should share God's words with others, so that they have hope and confidence for their future. The Lord desires that we be in an intimate relationship with Him as His sons and daughters for all of eternity. He wants to nurture and protect us from all harm. It is His heart's desire to gather all of mankind to Himself in the everlasting Kingdom of God.

If we are sanctified in the truth; totally obedient to God's commandments; and walk in love; we will receive the free gift of eternal life and all of its many blessings. There is no good thing that the Lord will ever withhold from us. We will have all our needs met in abundance, even before we ask Him. He will take vengeance on all our enemies and make certain that we are always healthy and happy.

God's Word promises us that we will live forever in His holy presence in the Kingdom of God on this earth. He will change our bodies into glorious, resurrection forms that are free of disease and decay. We will build beautiful homes for our large families and reap all the bounty of the earth for our food. We will see our offspring for all generations to come and dwell in love, peace and unity with others.

Colossians 3:17 "And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, [do] all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him."

If we are faithful to study and apply the Word of God to our own lives, we will be godly role models for others who are still lost in darkness and deception. We will teach them how to receive salvation in Jesus Christ and protect their righteousness at all times. We will illustrate the practical advice that is available in God's Word, so that they are never without His valuable guidance and direction.

We will give them hope and confidence for their future and encourage them to fulfill their divine destinies. The words that we speak will inspire them to be all that God has intended for them to be. We will offer reproof and correction when they fall short of the glory of God and urge them to repent and seek His forgiveness. We will teach them to obey all His commandments and walk in love.

All of mankind will be reached with the good news of the Kingdom of God. We will baptize countless numbers in Jesus' name and see them saved to eternal life with all of its many benefits. No righteous man, woman or child will be left behind. Our heavenly Father will gather us to Himself for all of eternity, as He has promised us in His Word. We will dwell in a veritable paradise in His presence.

The Lord will be pleased with all of our efforts on His behalf and grant us generous rewards in the Kingdom of God. We will judge both men and angels and share in Christ's very own honor and glory. He will appoint us as kings and priests and give us the heathen for our inheritance in the uttermost parts of the earth. We will even rule and reign with Jesus Christ over every nation of the world.

Our Lord and Savior will be a righteous King and provide all that we need to be healthy, happy and content. We will dwell in peace and unity with both men and angels. We will worship our God in Spirit and in truth and celebrate all of His sabbaths and perpetual feast days with joy and gladness in our hearts. We will give the Lord all the thanks, praise and glory that He deserves forever more.
