Matthew 4:4
But He answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of GOD.
THE POWER OF THE WORD
When JESUS was confronted by the devil, He did not waver or doubt, He stood His ground on the Word of the LORD. Satan was attempting to upset the mission and ministry of JESUS by undermining the relationship between JESUS and His Father, through disobedience. JESUS did not listen to the pangs of the human flesh that were hungry, due to 40 days of fasting, instead, He listened only to the Word of His Father through the living Word of GOD.
The "Word that proceedeth out of the mouth of GOD" is on the breath of GOD. When GOD breathes, there is creation and newness of life; the Word of GOD is breath and life. Look at what happens to the dry bones in Ezekiel 37; the breath was blown into the dry bones and they lived. This is what happens when the Word of GOD is spoken, it lives to create and to give power.
We, too, have the power of the Word of GOD. When we speak the Word, there is action from GOD and there is redemption and renewal. There is
POWER IN THE WORD OF GOD, speak it and believe it.
Today's confession:
I am encouraged, never discouraged (1 Samuel 30:6)
