Word of God

If you go to church you’ll often hear a lot of songs about Jesus. He’s often given a number of titles too when we sing about Him – like Savior, Redeemer and King of Kings. Did you know that Jesus is also called the Word of God?

Now wait, don’t misunderstand what I’m saying. Jesus is not your physical Bible, and God is not a book, but God did write the book and since the dawn of time He’s been gathering truths about Himself with a much bigger plan than just journaling. He knew they would all be collected together to speak of Him – and ultimately tell the story of His Son, Jesus – so that You would believe in Him and have eternal life!

In the Bible, John introduces us to God as ‘The Word’ (John 1:1) and then says that ‘The Word became flesh and dwelt among us’ (John 1:14). What he’s doing there is introducing Jesus as the God’s perfect revelation of Himself for the fulfillment of His will. The true Word of God had arrived – fully God, yet fully man – prophesied throughout the Old Testament as the Christ for whom will redeem all who turn from their sin and accept Him as their Savior. That’s why we can call Jesus the Word of God.

So when you pass a scripture like Hebrews 4:12 that says the Word of God is living, you can know that your Bible isn’t alive, but God’s truth revealed through His Son by the power of the Holy Spirit can be alive in You if you obey it’s instructions for your life. Walk in the power of God’s Word today – the power of Jesus!
