God is Spirit who says.
God shows himself through His word: His word is His presence with man.
God and His word share the same standing: the dignity of God's word equals to Himself.
God created all beings with His word; in everything you see you also see God; in everything you perceive you may know Him.
Without word anything in the heavens and on the earth could not be made; everything was created by His word.
Therefore the word in the beginning was God Himself.
His word is the beginning and the end of all beings: the knowledge to know all beings; the light to see all beings; and the wealth to possess all beings.
So the biggest wealth is to have God and the life from Him. God showed Himself as the word to the world: the word is light and the light is life and truth.
"In Him was life, and that life was the light of men." (John 1:4)
If you want life but fail to get it, consider you are not in the light, not in the understanding of the word, and not in the Holy Spirit.
Obedience to the word is to admit God, accept the word as the God Himself who is the absolute word.
The word of God never fails; it is light and life; it is God Himself and His personality that never perish.
God's word is omniscient and omnipotent; He knows origins of all things, knows how to manage them, and is able to control them in His absolute knowledge.( Luke 1:37)
Because God's word has personality, this also comes out when the word is spoken. To our greatest luck, the word of God orders blessings necessary to us human beings.( Psalm 133:3)
The word also destroys cruel diseases and heals death-bringing sickness of people who suffer from them.( Psalm 107: 20)
Jesus ordered His disciples in the word and the word was done as spoken; He spoke on His death and resurrection and His word was done as spoken. Only His word is what we believe: And whoever obeys His word shows such His signs and miracles as He spoke.(Mark 16: 17-20)
"And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well."
"After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God. Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed His word by the signs that accompanied it."(Mark 16: 17-20)
Because God is eternal, His word is also eternal: it is as it was and it will be as it is.
"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."(Hebrew 13:8)
Without word you won't be able to have the most precious eternal life how severely you struggle to live.
"Later Jesus found him at the temple and said to him, "See, you are well again. Stop sinning or something worse may happen to you."(John 5:24)
If you want to live, don't go for nothing but for God's word: Only the word becomes the wisdom, the knowledge and the power for the human to live.
"The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life." (John 6: 63)
Nothing from the abundant materialism of the world can be the key but only the Lord's word to life for those perishing away:
The word is life-bringing Spirit: as the word of Jesus Christ became the flesh, His flesh is the word and the power.
"The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth."(John 1:14)
Therefore out of no names under the heavens and on the earth you won't get a salvation; but the name of Jesus Christ who is light and eternal life is the power for salvation.
Everything shall follow and obey God's word: nothing can deny His word.
Do you want to get freed from troubles? Then depend on God's word.
Do you want to be born again? Then go to God's word.
Do you want to get out of the pains from sickness? Then ask for God's word.
Do you want to be blessed with eternal life? Then listen to God's word to make it your share. Only listen to what the word says and do it. You shall see the glory of God when you follow what He says.
My dear fellows in Jesus Christ, in all matters of your lives today please make the word of God work for you. O Lord! Just say your word and it shall be done! Amen.
