LIFESAVER - THE WORD OF THE LORD

Friday, August 6, 2010
Acts 11:14-16
Who shall tell thee words, by which thou and all thy house shall be saved. And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, as on us at the beginning. Then remembered I the Word of the LORD, how He said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.
Psalm 119:89,94
Forever, O LORD, Thy Word is settled in heaven.
I am thine; save me; for I have sought Thy precepts.

First and greatest lifesaver of humankind is the Name of the LORD - JESUS. The next lifesaver is the Word of the LORD. JESUS is the Word of the LORD and when you speak His Holy Name, the Holy Word is activated. All the promises of GOD are in His Word and He will perform that which He has promised. The Name and the Word are linked together in a Holy bond.

When JESUS was in the wilderness and was tempted and tried by the devil, He quoted the Word of the LORD as His only reply to Satan. In our life, all that we need to be saved is JESUS, who is Savior, LORD, and the Word. The "manufacturer's handbook" on living a GODLY life is the Holy Scripture. There is nothing that enters into the life of a person which does not have an answer in the Word of the LORD. GOD always keeps His Word.

When we speak the Word of the LORD, the Holy Spirit carries that Word deep into the heart, mind and spirit of the listener. His Word has power to save and to transform. His Word will not return to Him void; it will accomplish that for which He sent it.
