When God Speaks

Reading through the creation account, we see quite clearly what God's words can do. When God speaks,there is always a difference. From nothing God spoke creation into existence. God's ways of bringing things into existence has been by his words. And whenever he speaks, a change is made. God does not negotiate with situations or with any person before he speaks. God's words are usually commanding and nothing defies his command. When God speaks he makes sure that his words become reality.

When Jesus came to the earth as a human being, he continued this same "talk and do" (Ekwu eme) system. And so, "whenever Jesus spoke, what He said came to pass. Lepers found that a word from Jesus meant healing (Luke 5:13;17:14). The blind man discovered that a word from Jesus meant sight (Luke 18:42). Through a barren fig tree the disciples saw that a curse from Jesus meant destruction (Mark 11:20). The sinner experienced forgiveness through a word from Jesus (John 8:11). How many attempts did it take Jesus to raise Lazarus from the dead? Only one (John 11:43). There was never a time that Jesus spoke that what He said did not happen".
The same words of God have the same effect on your life. His words still heal; they still transform and renew. His words still destroy the power of the enemy around your life. When he speaks on your life a change is realized. The next time you read your bible try to discover what words Jesus is addressing to you. Don't be satisfied merely with the letters of those words. See the power behind them and the person that is speaking. So approach your bible with prayer.
