“… He (Jesus) had a name written, that no man knew … his name is called The Word of God…” (Revelation 19:12-13 NASB).
*
As this book comes to a close I must
ponder on what I have learned. I don’t want to simply give out information
without first getting an understanding of how to apply what God has revealed,
to me, to my own life.
I have learned just because you KNOW about
something doesn’t mean you KNOW something or SOMEONE. “…Many will say to me in that
day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast
out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess
unto them, I never knew you: depart
from me, ye that work iniquity…”
(Matthew 7:22-23 KJV).
Knowing ABOUT something is in the category of
second-hand knowledge. KNOWING something is EXPERIENCE. “…He answered and said unto them, Well hath
Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites,
as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me…”
(Mark 7:6 KJV). “…for thy heart is not right in the sight of God…” (Acts
8:21 KJV). “…Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his
eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable…”
(Hebrews 4:13 NLT).
What is
the point of knowing ANYTHING; if you don’t KNOW the ONE who is EVERYTHING! “Beloved, let us love one another:
for love is of God; and every one that loveth is begotten of God, and knoweth
God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for
God is love” (1
John 4:7-8 ASV).
I have learned God’s WORDS are SPIRIT. “…THE
WORDS THAT I SPEAK unto
you, they ARE SPIRIT…” (John 6:63 KJV). God is
SPIRIT. “…God is Spirit …” (John 4:24 KJV). The “WORD” is
spirit and God is spirit; they are one
and the same. “…the Word was God … (John 1:1-4 NASB).
Then I LEARNED the WORD became “flesh” or
a human vessel. “….The
Word became flesh…” (John
1:14 NASB).
I’ve also learned that the human vessel
was human, but the spoken words were Spirit. "…That which is born of the flesh (human) is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit (of God) is Spirit…”
(John 3:6 KJV). “…the flesh profiteth NOTHING…”
(John 6:63 KJV). “….THE WORDS that I speak
unto you, they are SPIRIT…”
(John 6:63 KJV).
God, the Holy Spirit, SPEAKS “HIS”
WORDS, through human mouthpieces. “… [JESUS SAID]…I
have not spoken of myself;
but the Father which sent me, he gave me a [WORD], what I should say, and what I should speak…” (John 12:49 KJV).
God,
the Holy Spirit, “SPEAKS,” his WORDS, which are SPIRIT, through human
flesh, yet his words are NOT human. “…God
is not human “…God is Spirit” …Does he speak and then not act? Does he
promise and not fulfill…” (Numbers 23:19 NIV & John 4:24 KJV).
“…THE WORDS THAT I SPEAK unto you, they ARE SPIRIT…”
(John 6:63 KJV). “…Not one
of all the LORD's good promises … failed;
every one was
fulfilled” (Joshua 21:45 NIV). “…My
[WORDS, they are SPIRIT and they]… SHALL stand, and I will do all my pleasure…”
(Isaiah 46:10 KJV).
God’s WORDS,
which have been around since the beginning of CREATION, were SPOKEN through a
human MOUTHPIECES. “…THE WORDS THAT I
SPEAK unto you, they ARE SPIRIT…” (John 6:63 KJV). “…In the beginning was the
Word (which is spirit), and the Word (which is
spirit) was with God, and the Word (which
is spirit) was God…“…God is Spirit”” (John 1:1-4 NASB & John
4:24 KJV). “…. All things came into being
through Him (The WORD, which is SPIRIT),
and apart from Him (The WORD, which is SPIRIT) nothing came into being that has
come into being … (John 1:1-4 NASB). “…
[The
Father, the Word, and the SPIRIT]…. [THESE] three agree in one [god]…” (1 John 5:8 KJV).
THE WORD OF GOD is SPIRIT and
God, specially created JESUS, who came in a human vessel; as a human mouthpiece
AND JESUS SPOKE his WORDS, which are SPIRIT. “…THE WORDS
THAT I SPEAK unto you, they ARE SPIRIT…” (John 6:63 KJV). "…That
which is born of the flesh (human) is flesh; and that
which is born of
the Spirit (of God) is spirit…” (John 3:6 KJV).
Jesus had another name. “… his name is called The Word of God…” (Revelation 19:12-13 NASB).
JESUS, THE WORD OF GOD, HAS ALL
POWER. “… Jesus (the WORD of GOD) …came
and SPAKE, unto them saying, “All POWER is given unto me IN heaven and earth…” (Matthew 28:18 KJV).
JESUS, THE WORD OF GOD,
DEMONSTRATED THAT POWER!
“…God anointed Jesus of Nazareth (HOW?)with the Holy Ghost (god IS SPIRIT) and WITH POWER: (WHAT DID THE HOLY SPIRIT & GOD’S POWER CAUSE JESUS TO DO?) [HE]... went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for GOD[who is SPIRIT] WAS WITH HIM…” (Acts 10:38-39 KJV).
“…God anointed Jesus of Nazareth (HOW?)with the Holy Ghost (god IS SPIRIT) and WITH POWER: (WHAT DID THE HOLY SPIRIT & GOD’S POWER CAUSE JESUS TO DO?) [HE]... went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for GOD[who is SPIRIT] WAS WITH HIM…” (Acts 10:38-39 KJV).
“…[GOD, who is SPIRIT]... anointed [ENDOWED him with the POWER] to preach the gospel to the poor …to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives,
and recovering of sight to the
blind, to set at liberty them that
are bruised, To preach the
acceptable year of the Lord…” (John 4:16-21 KJV).
JESUS, THE WORD OF GOD,
proves the WORD has the inherent POWER to do exceedingly GREAT WORKS. “… [HE]... went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil;
for GOD[who is
SPIRIT] WAS WITH HIM…” (Acts 10:38-39 KJV). “…he
doeth the works…” (John 14:10 KJV).
JESUS, THE WORD OF GOD,
proves NOTHING is too HARD for the WORD to accomplish. “… [God] is able TO DO exceeding abundantly ABOVE all that we ask or think…”
(Ephesians 3:20 KJV). “…I am the Lord,
the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?” (Jeremiah 32:27
KJV). “…he doeth the
works…” (John 14:10 KJV).
JESUS, THE WORD OF GOD,
proves the things impossible for humans are POSSIBLE with the WORD. “…The things which are impossible with men … [are] POSSIBLE [with God, who is SPIRIT] …”
(Luke 18:27 KJV). “…he doeth the
works…” (John 14:10 KJV).
“…THE WORDS … they ARE SPIRIT…”
(John 6:63 KJV). “…God is Spirit …” (John 4:24 KJV). “…The Lord
(Jesus Christ, who is the Word of God) is that Spirit…” (2
Corinthians 3:17 KJV). . “I (Jesus the Word of God) and the father
(God, who is Spirit) are one…”
(John 10:30 KJV). The “WORD” or JESUS is
spirit and God is spirit; they are one
and the same. “…the Word was God …” (John 1:1-4 NASB).
SINCE GOD IS SPIRIT, HIS WORDS COULD “ONLY”
BE SPIRIT TOO! “…THE WORDS … they ARE SPIRIT…” (John 6:63 KJV). THUS, “…God
is not human “…God is Spirit” …Does he speak and then not act? Does he
promise and not fulfill…” (Numbers 23:19 NIV & John 4:24 KJV).
Therefore, “…You can ask for anything in my name (IN MY WORD (JESUS)), and I “will” do it...” (John 14:12-14 NLT). “…You can ask for anything in my name (jesus, the word of god)...” (John 14:12-14 NLT). “….You
may ask for anything you want…”
(JOHN 15:7 NASB). “…Ask and it will be given to you…”
(Matthew 7:7 NIV). “…everyone who asks receives…” (Matthew 7:8 NIV).
“…And this is the confidence that we have in him
(Jesus), that, if
we ask any thing according to his will (WHICH IS his word), he heareth us…” (1 John 5:14 KJV). “… [We] … Receive from him
anything we ask, because we
keep
his commands (follow his instructions) and do what
pleases him…” (1 John 3:22 NIV). “…If we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we
have what we asked of him…” (1
John 5:15 NIV).
Therefore,“…Trust
in the Lord with all thine heart…” (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV). “… lean not unto
thine own understanding…”
(Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV). “…The Father that dwelleth in [you], he doeth the works…” (John 14:10 KJV). “…He helps me…”
(Psalms 28:7 NLT).
“… [His word] shall not return unto [him]… void, but it shall
accomplish that which [God]… please[s], and it shall prosper in the
thing whereto [God]… sent it…” (Isaiah 55:11 KJV). “…I will do
whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in
the Son…” (John 14:13 NIV). “…I will do whatever you ask in my
name (Jesus, which is the Word of God)…”
(John 14:13 NIV). "… [Depend upon THE
WORD OF GOD and] …what
[you] say will happen [and]…will be done for [you]….”
(MARK 11:23 NIV).
The HOLY SPIRIT “WILL” do; not might do,
WHATEVER you ask in JESUS name, which is THE WORD OF GOD. “…… his (JESUS) name is called The Word of God…”
(Revelation 19:12-13 NASB).
Whatever you ASK in the WORD of GOD “WILL”
be done and it “WILL” bring GLORY to God. “…I will do whatever you ask in my
name, so
that the Father may be glorified in the Son…” (John 14:13 NIV).
This is not MAGIC and God is NOT a genie
in a bottle. What God is SAYING is that he has GIVEN you the FULL permission to
UTILIZE the power and authority inherent in his WORD to accomplish he plans and
purposes upon earth. “…Christ, who is the head
over every power and authority (Colossians 2:10 NIV). “… The
Son of Man (the WORD) has authority on
earth to forgive sins...” (Matthew 9:6 NASB). “… Jesus (the WORD) …SPOKE to them,
saying, “All authority
has been given to Me in heaven and on earth…” (Matthew 28:18 NASB).
THE POWER AND AUTHORITY IS “IN” THE WORD. “…
Jesus
(the WORD) …SPOKE to them, saying,
“All authority has been given to Me
in heaven and on earth…” (Matthew 28:18 NASB).
GOD HAS GIVEN “HIS” PEOPLE POWER AND
AUTHORITY “THROUGH” HIS WORD WHICH IS “IN” THEM.“…God, who had given such authority to
men…” (Matthew 9:8 NASB). “… Jesus (THE WORD) ….gave them
power and authority to cast out all demons and to heal all
diseases…” (Luke 9:1 NASB). “… I (JESUS, THE WORD) have given you authority to
tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and
nothing will injure you…” (Luke 10:19 NASB).
“…You can ask
for anything
in my name (in my
authority (THE WORD)), and I will do it...” (John 14:12-14 NLT). “….You may ask for anything you
want…” (JOHN 15:7 NASB). …Ask and it will be given to you…”
(Matthew 7:7 NIV). “…everyone who asks receives…”
(Matthew 7:8 NIV). “…I will do
whatever you ask in my name (my authority), so that the Father may be
glorified in the Son…” (John 14:13 NIV).
“…And this is the confidence that we have in him
(Jesus), that, if
we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us…” (1 John 5:14 KJV). “…
[We] … Receive
from him anything we ask, because
we keep
his commands and do
what pleases him…” (1 John 3:22 NIV).
“…If
we know that he hears us—whatever
we ask—we know that we have what
we asked of him…” (1 John 5:15 NIV).
The POWER and AUTHORITY
to ASK, or DECLARE or DECREE a thing, or
call those things that are NOT as those they were, or any GREAT work that is
DONE according to and in agreement with GOD’s WORD, his WILL, and his PLAN will
be DONE!! “… I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me (dependence upon me;
the Word of God) will do what I (Jesus, the WORD) have been doing. He
will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.
And I will do whatever you ask in my name,(Jesus, the WORD with inherent power
and authority) so that the Son (also the WORD OF GOD) may bring glory to the
Father (God is SPIRIT). You may ask me for anything in my name,(the WORD,
with inherent power and authority) and I will do it...” (John 14:12-14 NIV).
Jesus, the WORD OF GOD, through the indwelling Holy Spirit, empowers
true followers to DO the SAME WORKS Jesus DID. “…God
anointed Jesus of Nazareth (HOW?)with
the Holy Ghost (god IS SPIRIT) and WITH
POWER: (WHAT DID THE HOLY SPIRIT
& GOD’S POWER CAUSE JESUS TO DO?) [HE]... went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil;
for GOD[who is
SPIRIT] WAS WITH HIM…” (Acts 10:38-39 KJV).
“…[GOD, who is SPIRIT]... anointed [ENDOWED him with the POWER] to preach the gospel to the poor …to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives,
and recovering of sight to the
blind, to set at liberty them that
are bruised, To preach the
acceptable year of the Lord…” (John 4:16-21 KJV).
The KEY is this: “…I
will do whatever you ask in my name (jesus, the word of
god with inherent power and authority), so that the Father may be glorified in
the Son…” (John 14:13 NIV).
“…And this is the confidence that we have in him
(Jesus, the Word with inherent power and authority), that, if we ask any thing according to his will (also his word), he heareth us…” (1 John 5:14 KJV).
The WORD of GOD has authority and it WORKS “in” and “through” true
followers to DISPLAY God’s POWER upon the earth.“…the Father that
dwelleth in [you], he doeth the works…”
(John 14:10 KJV).“…God who does the work IN and THROUGH all of
us who are his. The HOLY SPIRIT
DISPLAYS God’s power THROUGH each of us …… (1 Corinthians
12:4-11 NLT).
God is the SOURCE that SUPPLIES AUTHORITY
to his WORD and DISPLAYS his POWER through willing human vessels like Jesus. “… Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders
and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know…” (Acts 2:22 NIV).
God is the SOURCE that SUPPLIES AUTHORITY
to his WORD and DISPLAYS his POWER through ALL of his true followers who are willingly
submitted to him. “… So Paul and Barnabas spent
considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who confirmed the message of his grace by enabling them to do miraculous signs and
wonders… “ (Acts 14:3 NIV). “… [God’s people shall] serve as signs … from the Lord…”
(Isaiah 8:18 NLT). “…The HOLY SPIRIT DISPLAYS God’s power (and authority) THROUGH
each of [them] … (1 Corinthians 12:4-11 NLT). For instance, “…God
gave Paul the power to perform unusual miracles…” (Acts 19:11 NLT).
“…That great Shepherd of the sheep, equip
you with everything good for doing his will…”
(Hebrews 13:20-21 NIV). “…That
great Shepherd of the sheep …work “IN US” what is pleasing to him, through
Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen…” (Hebrews 13:20-21
NIV). “…It is
God which worketh IN YOU both to will and to do of his good pleasure…” (Philippians
2:13 KJV).
