The Living Word

I am now making my words in your mouth a fire and this people wood, and the fire shall devour them. -Jeremiah 5:14

How powerful is the Word. It is alive and it speaks to us. It convicts us and loves us. It corrects us and encourages. What an amazing thing that God has given us this blueprint. But not just a bunch of words on paper, limited to one place, one time, one people. This is Him, on our shoulder, in our mind…carried to our heart by the Holy Spirit. We have a way!

Indeed, the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing until it divides the soul from the spirit, joints from the marrow; it is able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And before him no creature is hidden, but all are naked and laid bare to the eyes of the one to whom we must render an account. -Hebrews 4:12
