When God speaks, His words are binding—they’re like an unbreakable contract. He always says exactly what He means, He never lies, and He never says, “I’ve changed My mind.” Hebrews 1:3 says, “Upholding all things by the word of his power,” and Psalm 89:34 says, “My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out… Continue reading The Word Became Flesh

God’s Word – the Seed of His Blessing
A true revelation of God’s Word is essential for a victorious Christian life. The Word of God often refers to itself as a seed. There are a total of forty-four verses in the New Testament where the Greek word “sperma” was translated “seed.” This is the same word from which we derive our English word “sperm.”… Continue reading God’s Word – the Seed of His Blessing
Speak the Word of the Lord
God does not need to be quoted; He needs men who will be His mouthpiece. People still feel that they can work for Jesus. This has been a problem down through the years. Instead of going out and working for Jesus, wouldn’t it be better to go out and let Jesus work through you? The… Continue reading Speak the Word of the Lord
The living Word
I have been writing since 2011, so the messages I share on Facebook are from years ago, as I edit my website, and share some of the things I have edited. I have so much written that I am trying to preserve it, but it is stale manna, as far as the ministry is concerned… Continue reading The living Word
Always persistent
I have some things that I am going to read to you. First of all, I’m going to read a statement, so brace yourself. Fasten your seat belt. If you receive a Word and do not persist in it, you will seek in frustration for another Word. And then you will seek for another Word,… Continue reading Always persistent
God’s attributes within you
In Galatians 5 we find both a description of the works of the flesh and a list of the fruit of the Spirit: Now the works of the flesh (this is what your flesh produces) are manifest, which are these: fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, parties (or heresies), envyings,… Continue reading God’s attributes within you
The Lord has given a living Word, but who has heard it?
One of the greatest generals of all time was Joshua. Of course, West Point and other military academies came about long after his time—schools where men are taught the strategy that generals learned as they fought wars, changed the destinies of men, and directed the course of history. But there is nothing more important that… Continue reading The Lord has given a living Word, but who has heard it?
The Word was God
What is the Living Word that God is speaking to us today, and what has He always been trying to do for us in both His written and spoken Word? The books of John and Revelation contain a number of passages about the Word. The first chapter of John tells us, In the beginning was… Continue reading The Word was God
The story of the Nephilim
The transition from the Church Age into the Kingdom will come about because God has door openers just as He had in New Testament times. They will take the Word that has been committed and open the door so that you can understand the things that are to be. It is interesting to note that… Continue reading The story of the Nephilim
What faith receives; what it rejects
The Living Word is meat in due season—just the Word that you need when you need it (Psalm 145:15). The principal thing this Word will do is show you where we are, and what we have to claim and walk in now. Regardless of our situation, the problems we face are not really our real… Continue reading What faith receives; what it rejects
We kept His Word
This message gives a good perspective of what God is doing right now in the hearts of His people as far as the Word is concerned. It will also show the basis of intercession at this time; it is perhaps grim, but it is also victorious. There is a real flow of oneness right now… Continue reading We kept His Word
You’re the library of eternity.
In the book of Jeremiah, the weeping prophet, we see that he wept because of the things that were coming to pass. Also, we see that Jeremiah is one of the prophets in the Old Testament who spoke much about the heart. Ezekiel, too, has a great number of references concerning the heart. He spoke… Continue reading You’re the library of eternity.
The memory that lives
The Word is deeper. Some of the best revelation teaching comes during times when there are only a few instead of the many. During these times of waiting on the Lord, the Words come because they are living experiences to us. We are living them. When we speak them to you, you are aware that… Continue reading The memory that lives
The living word faith-factor
When we compare the various interpretations of the Word of God, it becomes evident that the true and the false are not that far apart. The religious world will explain a Scripture such as James 2:26, which says, “Faith without works is dead,” with the kind of interpretation and application which spurs them on to… Continue reading The living word faith-factor
Don’t read it, eat it!
A most effective time to break through to a greater level in the Lord comes when we cease to function by our understanding of our circumstances, and we reach up because we feel a burden in the Spirit. Then we are reaching in to be totally one with the heart of the Lord, and our… Continue reading Don’t read it, eat it!
For the best of His blessing
God has given us so many beautiful truths, but sometimes the flow of the Word is so great that it is difficult to appropriate it all. The Living Word is so rich that it can almost overwhelm us unless we learn how to assimilate it into our very being. The Lord has set us on… Continue reading For the best of His blessing
Are you a turkey?
According to God’s law of reproduction, everything brings forth after its own kind (Genesis 1:24–25). Dolphins can communicate with humans by responding to certain whistles and other sounds. They are very intelligent; they have a brain similar in size to the human brain. On the other hand, dinosaurs supposedly had a tiny brain; some speculate… Continue reading Are you a turkey?
Seasoned with salt
An Old Testament law required that every meat offering be seasoned with salt (Leviticus 2:13). In the New Testament teaching of the Lord in the Sermon on the Mount, He tells us, Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth… Continue reading Seasoned with salt
Let’s dig a canal
Visualize a beautiful tree, laden with lush foliage and bearing delicious fruit in its season. Next to the tree is a canal full of flowing water. This is the picture portrayed in the first Psalm when it describes the blessed man. How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the… Continue reading Let’s dig a canal
“Wonderful! God accepted me!”
One of the most positive steps that you can take to advance into the Kingdom of God is accepting yourself in your relationship to God. If you do not do this, you are vulnerable for the enemy to minister self-condemnation and guilt to you, when the blood of Christ has actually taken care of your… Continue reading “Wonderful! God accepted me!”
The channel of the higher flow
A Living Word from the Lord comes to us to create in us oneness. We can have a new appreciation of the process by which the Living Word accomplishes that oneness. This may seem vague, but most of the things that God reveals to us are a little beyond our understanding, even after they are… Continue reading The channel of the higher flow
The greatest works are hidden
In the Scriptures, we are told by the Lord Jesus Christ Himself that we will do greater works than He did. “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go to the Father.”… Continue reading The greatest works are hidden
Pure vessels for a pure word
The Lord Jesus Christ is again saying, as He said to His first apostles, “If they have received My Word, they will receive your word also” (John 15:20). The apostolic Word is being spoken again, and those who hear it have an option to accept it or reject it. They may not know that this… Continue reading Pure vessels for a pure word
His word over you is the issue
It is very important that we firmly establish our attitude toward the Lord. Because a living Word is being committed to God’s people in this day, there will be very difficult times when discouragement and persecution will come against us to make us draw back. We will have nothing going for us except the fact… Continue reading His word over you is the issue
A pure word from a clean vessel
According to stories of ancient warfare, whenever an enemy took over a territory and did not want that land or its people to survive, the enemy would sow the fields with salt and throw carcasses in the wells. We read in Genesis how Isaac dug again the wells which his father Abraham had dug, because… Continue reading A pure word from a clean vessel
A hammer and a fire
It is important for you to have the Word of the Lord, so that you can know what you are doing and why you are doing it, as well as God’s ultimate purposes in everything that is taking place. You will stumble if you follow the human level of trying to rationalize situations instead of… Continue reading A hammer and a fire
The word-a vital force
Exhortation God has been showing us the difference between illusion and reality. The illusion that the enemy creates can be so deceptive. We stand upon the reality which is based upon what God has said. Everyone goes through problems in which they seem to have victory on the one hand and unexplainable defeats on the… Continue reading The word-a vital force
It is settled!
Psalm 119:89 is a familiar passage, one that should be memorized. Forever, O Lord, Thy word is settled in heaven. The margin reads, “Stands firm in heaven.” God’s Word stands firm in heaven. Another familiar Scripture is found in Matthew 24:35: Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words shall not pass away. Let’s… Continue reading It is settled!
The words God has spoken to us
Above everything else, there must be a determination in your heart to walk in the will of the Lord and to submit your will totally to what the Lord would bring forth. There must be more than a simple consent to it. You do not consent to the truth, you walk in it violently! Do… Continue reading The words God has spoken to us
Speak the Word of the Lord
As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. Whoever speaks, let him speak, as it were, the utterances of God; whoever serves, let him do so as by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may… Continue reading Speak the Word of the Lord
The new kingdom bible
But the righteousness which is of faith saith thus, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down:) or, Who shall descend into the abyss? (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.) For what saith it? The word is nigh thee, in thy mouth, and in… Continue reading The new kingdom bible
By the Word, in the Word
There has to be a new emphasis upon the Word of the Lord. The emphasis cannot be upon a leader; it must be upon the Living Word that is spoken and upon the impartation that is coming to us in this new level. The churches are always healthier as a result of this focus, because… Continue reading By the Word, in the Word
The Word on a higher level
There is an important truth about judgment which we must understand: our speaking the Word of Christ into the earth—Christ speaking with His voice once again in a many-membered Body—will be the determining factor in judgment (Ephesians 3:10). But how does prophecy of that caliber come? I am very much impressed that it does not… Continue reading The Word on a higher level
Blown into kingdom come-by the word
We are coming to an era in which we shall be speaking the word of the Lord. To speak the word of the Lord sounds simple, but the process of it coming to pass has meant long warfare. From the very beginning of human history, when God spoke a word to people, Satan contested that… Continue reading Blown into kingdom come-by the word
Heart, hand and head
Now this is the commandment, the statutes, and the ordinances, which Jehovah your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it; that thou mightest fear Jehovah thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy… Continue reading Heart, hand and head
Let the Word have free course
And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him. Now the feast of the Jews, the feast of tabernacles, was at hand. His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works… Continue reading Let the Word have free course
My Words in your mouth
Now the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee; I have appointed thee a prophet unto the nations. Then said I, Ah, Lord Jehovah! behold, I know not how to speak; for I… Continue reading My Words in your mouth
Dreams and words
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brethren: and they hated him yet the more. And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed: for, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your… Continue reading Dreams and words
Alert to the Spirit
The Lord is speaking in this day about a joy that comes to strengthen the believer. That joy will be needed; otherwise the Body of Christ will bog down under the heaviness of the Word. The Word, although heavy, does not come to crush the people of God; it comes to open the door so… Continue reading Alert to the Spirit
The Word made flesh
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 through him; and without him was not anything made that hath been made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And… Continue reading The Word made flesh
Can these bones live?
The hand of the Lord was upon me, and He brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me down in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones. And He caused me to pass among them round about, and behold, there were very many on the surface of… Continue reading Can these bones live?
The man believed the Word
The second chapter of John records Jesus’ first miracle that of changing water into wine. This miracle is called a “sign.” It is a picture of what is to come in the end time. The best wine that was saved for the last at the wedding of Cana symbolizes the miraculous living Word that God… Continue reading The man believed the Word
Be it done unto me according to your word
Have you decided that you are not content to be what you were yesterday, and instead you are going to be what God says you are? Everything is done by the Word of the Lord. Imagine for a moment that you are poised on a high diving board. It is the first time you have… Continue reading Be it done unto me according to your word
To be and to become
In speaking about the Word of God, we must include all that God is speaking today, without distinguishing between the written Scriptures and prophecy. Inevitably critics will say that this is exalting prophecy to a place equal with the Scriptures; yet there are instances in which prophecy can be exalted above the Scriptures. It is… Continue reading To be and to become
The word sounded forth
The way the Lord brought forth the churches in the first century was very exciting. Some sprang up in a matter of a few weeks or months through the ministry of apostolic companies going forth in the land. Here is the story of one church. We give thanks to God always for you all, making… Continue reading The word sounded forth
Believe it and say it
But the righteousness based on faith speaks thus, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down), or ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).” But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and… Continue reading Believe it and say it
Jacob and Israel
The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel. Isaiah 9:8. This verse follows the well-known prophecy, For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince… Continue reading Jacob and Israel
The lavor
Just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her; that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she should be… Continue reading The lavor
Those who spoke the Word of God
Too many Christians are still missing the real meaning of the Word of God. The living Word is very basic to a walk in the Spirit. God’s people are going to speak the Word of God. This concept has already been accepted by a remnant of believers, but it is not in the depths of… Continue reading Those who spoke the Word of God
The testimony of Jesus
THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS Revelation 19 is one of the most significant chapters in the Bible. It ends a three-chapter portrait of two mystical, symbolical women who actually represent the picture of Christianity today: Babylon, the great harlot, symbolizing the systems of religion built in the name of Christ which commit fornication with the kings… Continue reading The testimony of Jesus
Speak the Word of God
SPEAK THE WORD OF THE LORD God does not need to be quoted; He needs men who will be His mouthpiece. People still feel that they can work for Jesus. This has been a problem down through the years. Instead of going out and working for Jesus, wouldn’t it be better to go out and… Continue reading Speak the Word of God
The famine for the word of God
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord: and they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to… Continue reading The famine for the word of God
Speak the Word only
The early disciples of Christ had a unique power to turn the world upside down. What was the secret of their success? Was it because of the great abilities they had? I am sure the secret of that strange power was the Word of God which they spoke with great boldness. The early believers did… Continue reading Speak the Word only
I ate the book
The war over God’s word began early in Genesis when Satan came into the garden and asked, “Has God said?” Satan’s whole effort is to challenge and to question what God says. The believer’s victory is found in believing implicitly what God says and absorbing His word until he actually becomes a channel of speaking… Continue reading I ate the book
By Word of God-and His hornets
BY THE WORD OF GOD—AND HIS HORNETS Chapters 7 and 8 of Deuteronomy describe the way that immunity in spiritual warfare comes to God’s people and the way that it is preserved. Chapter 9 mentions the sons of Anak, the Anakim. They were giants, a breed of Nephilim who constantly opposed the children of Israel.… Continue reading By Word of God-and His hornets
Speak the word of the Lord with humility
O thou children of the Lord, hath He not put His word within thy mouth? Did not our Master say, “I judge no man, but the words that I speak, they shall judge men in the last day.” That last day hath come, and the words of your Lord within your mouth will be the… Continue reading Speak the word of the Lord with humility
But I am only eight years old
The prophesying of Jeremiah came at a time when judgment upon God’s people was imminent. The same dedication to the pure word of God that came forth in Jeremiah must be wrought in our spirits, for in this hour we are standing on the threshold of the same kind of ministry that Jeremiah had. The… Continue reading But I am only eight years old
The word that shakes
Sometimes the first part of a chapter in the Word is not understood until the last part is read. The end of the twelfth chapter of Hebrews says, …Our God is a consuming fire. Verse 29. If you orient yourself to this verse, the entire chapter will have more meaning. Verses 25 and 26 say… Continue reading The word that shakes
The pure coin of the realm
God has a way of either veiling or unveiling the truth. Many passages in the Scriptures are deep and mystical, as well as philosophical. When you read the Word, the Lord must give you a heart to perceive and understand the parables, the visions, the dreams, and the cryptic sayings that have hidden meanings to… Continue reading The pure coin of the realm
Streets of gold
And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; each one of the gates was a single pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass. Revelation 21:21. Most believers know that everything in the hook of Revelation is rather symbolic. This Scripture is a symbolic picture of the New Jerusalem, the holy… Continue reading Streets of gold
Is the rain of the Spirit beginning?
A panoramic view of the book of Acts shows what the early disciples actually became conditioned to. Many Christians do not recognize the true emphasis in the book of Acts. They read how the Holy Spirit fell on the day of Pentecost, loosing the power of God in the Church. They are thrilled by the… Continue reading Is the rain of the Spirit beginning?
Expand! explode!
The principal purpose of the book of Acts seems to be the description of the anointing of the Lord and the fullness of the Spirit that rested upon the early believers. Many Christians today have too narrow an understanding of this dynamic book. A Pentecostal influence leads them to view Acts only as a book… Continue reading Expand! explode!
The enemy of God’s Word
For every action there seems to be a corresponding reaction. Whenever God gives a word to your heart, Satan will fight that word, and you will become the source of both action and reaction. No matter how strong the anointing is that brings the word, there will be a corresponding power exercised to take the… Continue reading The enemy of God’s Word
You’d better believe it!
From the dawn of human history, Satan’s tactic has been the assault against God’s word. He comes with one question: “Hath God said?” The conflict of the ages, as far as God’s people are concerned, points back to what happened in the Garden of Eden. There sin was introduced into the world because Satan was… Continue reading You’d better believe it!
Singleness of heart
What is the fullness of Pentecost to mean to us today? Can it mean that the Lord will take many and give them singleness of heart as He did at the beginning? You see this day that is before you, and the only thing that matters is that you have heard a Word and you… Continue reading Singleness of heart
The pierced hearts
Among the 120 gathered for the day of Pentecost was Mary, the mother of the Lord. She was typical of many today who have followed the Lord saying as Mary, “Be it done unto me according to Thy Word.” The prophet said, “A sword shall pierce your own heart,” and so we experience the devastation… Continue reading The pierced hearts
Seize upon God’s word!
I am convinced there isn’t a day we live when we reach over ten per cent of the potential of that day. That is true of the services we have too. I don’t know how to reach it; being emotional, and intense, isn’t the answer. There must be something in our spirit, an expectation that… Continue reading Seize upon God’s word!
The word of power
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. Matthew 24:14. This coming move of God isn’t a dying missionary effort. We’re going forth with the discernment and we’re speaking words of power. We are not speaking words only,… Continue reading The word of power
The Word of truth
Remind them of these things, and solemnly charge them in the presence of God not to wrangle about words, which is useless, and leads to the ruin of the hearers. Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, handling accurately the word of truth. But… Continue reading The Word of truth
They spoke the word of God!
The early disciples had a unique power to turn the world upside down. The secret of their success was not their human abilities or natural talents. Their secret was the releasing of the nature and the power of God in the word they spoke. The early believers did not talk about the Scriptures or even… Continue reading They spoke the word of God!
