THE WORD OF GOD LIVES AND STANDS FOREVER
having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever,
The Word of God is Spirit and invisible. Out of the spiritual comes the physical. Out in the physical, the Word of God is not under the constraints of time or space. God’s Word lives and stands forever. This can only happen by the authority of the Word of God.
“having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever,” (1 Peter 1:23)
Over the centuries, God has always tried to convince mankind by using many different means of speaking in order to remind them of their limited capacity alongside His Divine Majesty.
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1)
God speaks through His creation and since the beginning of time, without even making a sound, God has been preaching to us through His Word. No one can not listen to God’s voice for long. He speaks to us through His creative, perfect, generous, and eternal creation.
“Then God said, “Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens.”” (Genesis 1:20)
Let us think for a moment about all the different plants, all the different animals. How could any one person create such perfection? When we ignore God in creation, we commit the greatest act of foolishness when we pretend to be oblivious to the precision behind God's creation.
“The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge. There is no speech nor language Where their voice is not heard. Their line has gone out through all the earth, And their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun,” (Psalm 19:1-4)
Creation is a clear reflection of the authority of the Word of God that has been here since the beginning of our time and space. The entire Bible was inspired by faith and spoke into existence. It was through the lives of the writers of the different books of the Bible that we received the revelation of God's Word. These people knew that what they were writing would become a spiritual guide for every generation to come.
“has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;” (Hebrews 1:2)
The complete personality of God has been manifested through Jesus. In fact, Jesus is God’s Word made flesh. This is why John said, In Jesus was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.
“In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.” (John 1:4)
As you go about your day today, remember that you have been brought to life, and you are guided and protected by the power of God's Word.
Will you let God’s Word guide your life today?
Heavenly Father, how precious are Your Words to me. Your Words are Spirit, and they are life to me as I receive them to live by in life. Your wisdom created, and Your wisdom lives on in Your children. To sacrifice that peace and joy of knowing You and not take Your Words to live by, would be a horrible thing. I honor Your life-giving seed of Your Word, and I plant it deep within my heart. In my communion with You, I have peace and delight, no matter what this world is saying. Your Word is my refuge from the storms around me as the enemy knows his time is short. All Praise to You in that I know You and the power of Your resurrection. All Thanks and Praise to You alone. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
