DIMENSIONS OF THE WORD (4): THE WORD IS PROPHETIC

We have also a more sure word of prophecy? whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
II Peter 1:19 (KJV)

The Word of Yahweh is prophetic. This means that the Word foretells the events of the future. We have the glimpse of the end by the Word of the Lord. The Word of the Lord speaks to our future and to our moments. Until you are in the Word, you would not have idea of what the future looks like. Everything happening today is already prophesied in the Word. We know that the Word does not fail because what it foretold of old had come to pass, so what it foretell of the end shall come to pass. Anybody that refuses to take warning that the Word has already given has himself/herself to blame. The Word shows you the picture of your future. When you come into terms with that, then you will begin to walk in paths preordained for you. Romans 8:29 says, ‘For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.’ Even your salvation is a function of divine foreknowledge. It is because you were marked for salvation that irrespective of your past wickedness, somehow, salvation found you and when you heard the Word, you believed.

DIMENSIONS OF THE WORD (3): THE WORD IS SURGICAL

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Hebrews 4:12 (KJV)

When we say that the Word is surgical, we mean to say that the Word has the power to open up your spirit, soul and body and stitch, repair or replace whatever is missing, damaged, or failing. The Word can cut open your spirit, soul and body. That is exactly this surgical dimension that our opening text is speaking about. The Word of Yahweh is sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the dividing asunder of the soul and spirit and of the joints and marrow and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. The Word can cut your body open and remove cancer cell without physically cutting you open but when you go to the doctors or laboratory, they would confirm that you don’t have any cancer any more. Beloved, with the Word in your mouth you can cut off sickness, disease or infection from your body. The Word of Yahweh in your mouth in the name of the Lord Yahushua is a surgical knife that can cut off any pain harassing your life. As a Pastor, this is the way the author deals with satanic affliction in the life of the people. I just lay hands on the person and I cut off the hold of that devil in the life of the person in the name of the Lord Yahushua and it is settled.

DIMENSIONS OF THE WORD (2): THE WORD IS CURATIVE

DIMENSIONS OF THE WORD (2): THE WORD IS CURATIVE

For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
Proverbs 4:22 (KJV)

The Word of Yahweh produces cure. The Hebrew word translated health in our opening text is ‘marpe’ meaning a medicine, remedy or healing. From Proverbs 4:20 we see that it was Yahweh’s Word that brings about this medicine to all their flesh. When you find the Word, you have found medicine. The Word brings cure to anywhere it arrives. The Word is like the river in Ezekiel 47:9, “And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the river cometh.” The Word became flesh and dwelt among us in the person of Yahushua. Yahushua HaMashiach is also known as our Great Physician and that means through which He brings His cure is through His Word. Whatever he spoke to received life. Finding the Word and applying it to yourself is a guarantee for cure because its medicine does not fail. This Great Physician through the Word has preventive medicine. These are set of instructions from the Word that if adhered to, would cause you to walk in divine health all the days of your life. Preventive medicine is how the Lord keeps your body from getting sick in the first place. In preventive medicine, the Lord Yahushua exposes you to the knowledge that will help you maintain your body which is the temple of the Holy Spirit. Most people are sick today not because of the devil but because of ignorance of what to eat and not to eat. To some the cream they are applying in their body has the capacity to cause them cancer tomorrow. Cases of diabetes is almost apart from where it is hereditary a function of what you put into your mouth in terms of food and drinks. Hosea 4:6 says that my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. As a new creation in HaMashiach, Satan has no power and authority over your health but ignorance can undo you. So avail yourself of the information the Great Physician by the Holy Spirit living in you is exposing you to.

DIMENSIONS OF THE WORD (1): THE WORD IS CREATIVE

DIMENSIONS OF THE WORD (1): THE WORD IS CREATIVE

Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

Hebrews 11:3 (KJV)

In Genesis 1:3, 6, 9, 11, 14, 17, 20, we saw Yahweh speaking the Word and the result is the world that we see today. Yahweh’s Word is creative. Whatever He calls forth comes into being. John 1:1-3 lets us know that “1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him? and without him was not any thing made that was made.” By the creative force of the Word, the universe as we see it today was brought forth. All things were made by the Word and they are being sustained by the Word. Hebrews 1:3 (Amp) says ‘upholding and maintaining and guiding and propelling the universe by His mighty word of power.’ The mighty Word of His power that created all things is the same Word that is upholding, maintaining, guiding and propelling the universe day in day out. The Word of Yahweh is more powerful than a nuclear reactor. There is no nuclear reactor that can propel the universe for over 13.8 billion years now. The creative Word of Yahweh perfectly and excellently placed everything in such a position that it has never needed an adjustment from the very time the Word spoke them into existence.

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (9): BY GIVING YOU PEACE

Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.

Psalms 119:165 (KJV)

There are few things that are as valuable in life as peace. Peace is a stress-free state of security and calmness that comes when there’s no fighting or war, everything coexisting in perfect harmony and freedom. Peace is a state where there is no war or fighting within or without you. It is coming to a place of perfect rest and tranquillity in your spirit-man. So many people are at war within. They have the good things of life and live in good places and environment yet there is war within, no peace. The worst case of existence is lack of peace existence. That is the reason for suicide. The worst part of it is that there is nothing physical that can give or guarantee you peace within. Peace within comes first from surrendering your heart to the Lord Yahushua, reconciling with the Father through the Lord Yahushua. Then that state of peace is established by taking your seat in the Word. When you are in the Word, no devil can offend you, nothing can upset your heart. The world may be in turmoil; your environment may be on fire but within there is absolute peace and tranquillity. Peace is a state of living without a guilty conscience. Peace is a state of living without your heart skipping at the thoughts of things.

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (8): BY IMPARTING AN EXCELLENT SPIRIT

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (8): BY IMPARTING AN EXCELLENT SPIRIT

Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
Daniel 6:3 (KJV)

Excellence is a talent or quality which is unusually good and so surpasses ordinary standards. Excellence is above par performance or outcome. It is a performance that wows everyone and evokes feelings of awe and admiration. The Word builds us up by imparting excellence into our spirit-man. As you interact with the Word on daily basis, there is a metamorphosis going on in your spirit-man. Our Father is an excellent God and all He does is excellent. There is no single mistake or error in Yahweh. Relating with Him in His Word turns you into that image of excellence. That was the story of Daniel. He was an addict of the Word (see Daniel 9:2). The Word was his meditation even in a strange land. What did the Word make of him? Daniel became a man that exuded excellence like no man’s business. Daniel was in power in the reign of four kings in Babylon. At a time, the king preferred Daniel above all other presidents and princes. That is not to say that this Daniel was a captive and a stranger in the land. He was not the son of the soil as we would say in this part of the world. But excellence has a way of breaking protocols. There is no racial discrimination where excellence is at work. Whenever excellence shows up favouritism dies.

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (7): BY IMPARTING DIVINE WISDOM

For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.
Proverbs 2:6 (KJV)

It is practically impossible to function in this kingdom outside the Word of Yahweh. This is because all that makes for real life and godliness are the impartation of the Word. The Word builds us up by giving us Divine Wisdom. Proverbs 4:7 says, ‘Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.’ Wisdom is the trait of utilizing knowledge and experience with common sense and insight. It is the ability to apply knowledge or experience or understanding or common sense and insight. It is the quality of being prudent and sensible. There are four kinds of Wisdom according James 3:15-18. The first kind of Wisdom is earthly or natural wisdom. It is the wisdom that we are born with as human being. Even though a child is just born, he/she does not put his/her mother’s breast in his/her nose and start sucking, earthly wisdom enables the child to put breast in his/her mouth and to suck. He/she does not need any lecture to get that done. Secondly, we have sensual wisdom. This is the wisdom acquired in the citadel of learning. It is also called intellectual wisdom. It comes through intellectual training and it enhances our social status. Thirdly, we have Devilish wisdom. This is the wisdom of diabolism and the occult. It is destructive in nature and it is used by magicians, witches, wizards and the occult. Then fourthly, we have the Wisdom from above. This is divine Wisdom and comes by interaction with the Word of Yahweh, the Bible.

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (6): BY TEACHING THE FEAR OF YAHWEH

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (6): BY TEACHING THE FEAR OF YAHWEH

Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
Psalms 34:11 (KJV)

The Word teaches us the fear of the Lord. Is it not a wonderful thing that the fear of the Lord can be learnt. That means no one is disadvantaged in life. Just anyone can learn the fear of the Lord and function in the realms of power and glory in their relationship with Yahweh. The Fear of the Lord is reverence for the Lord. It is having a sense of awe for the person, presence and emotions of the Lord. It is living your life in such a way and with the sole priority to please the Lord and bring glory to His holy name. Our relationship with the Father starts with surrendering to the Lordship of Yahushua HaMashiach. John 14:6 says, ‘Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.’ If you have not accepted the Lord Yahushua as Lord and Personal Saviour, then you do not have a relationship with the Father because the scriptures cannot be broken. At the fall of Adam, humanity came short of the glory of the Father. It is only in Yahushua that we are reconciled, restored and empowered to fellowship with the Father. Another need to be saved is that at the fall of Adam, humanity acquired the nature of Satan. But at salvation, you become a new creation with the nature of righteousness of the Lord Yahushua. It is this nature of righteousness that makes it possible to be and live holy lives as a new creation. Holiness is the basis of a valid relationship with the Father (see II Timothty 2.19). Having become a new creation in HaMashiach, you must conform your soul and body to this new man in HaMashiach by doing the Word. It is the fear of the Lord that brings about doing the Word.

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (4): BY PROVOKING EXPECTATION

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (4): BY PROVOKING EXPECTATION

Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
James 1:15 (KJV)

Our opening text looks like a negative scripture but please follow me. This scripture explains what happens with expectation. This scripture is talking about desire/lust. From verse 14 it started saying that every man is tempted when he is drawn away of his own desire/lust and enticed. Then it said that lust/desire when it is conceived, brings forth sin. This is powerful. What you only need to do in this process was to conceive a desire. However, when that process of conception of desire or expectation is finished, it activates chain of reactions and processes that brings about a product. Expectation is defined as belief about (or mental picture of) the future. It is anticipating with confidence of fulfilment of something. The Word shows you the character of Yahweh, the provisions He has made for you, the outcomes of obeying Him and His provisions. All these knowledge deposit an expectation into you and when this expectation is conceived, it brings forth. Proverbs 23:18 says, “For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.” This is the winning ways of the Word. It has the ability to impart expectation that determines manifestation. You can never see manifestation beyond your expectation. It is expectation that sets the limits for divine manifestations in your life. And this is both in the positive and the negative side.

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (3): BY IMPARTING THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIS WILL

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (3): BY IMPARTING THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIS WILL

For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
Colossians 1:9 [KJV]

The Knowledge of Yahweh’s Will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding is the goldmine that when you hit it, your life and world turns around 360 degrees instantly. Coming to the knowledge of His Will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding is so crucial that you should be praying like Apostle Paul both for yourself and especially for your family members to come to this dimension in the Word. The Knowledge of His Will in all Wisdom and spiritual understanding means coming to know the will of Yahweh and being filled with the spiritual understanding to process it as it relates to you and receiving the Wisdom to apply it to your life in order to come into the reality of what it is saying. Firstly is knowing the Will of Yahweh and the Will of Yahweh is what is in the Word, the Bible. The Bible is the Will of Yahweh for you the believer. The Will defines your inheritance and allotments; that is exactly what the Word does, showing you what belongs to you in HaMashiach and the path to take to take delivery of it. Knowing the Will of Yahweh is critical because, you can only act according to knowledge. But then, knowledge alone is not enough.
