Word converts the soul…..

The Word is both alive and life giving…
         Achieving the impossible,
Overcoming every obstacle,
Healing the broken,
Beautifying the meek, AND
Transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary!

 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple… ~ Psalm 19:7

Converts the soul: The Scripture is like a mirror, we look into it and see ourselves and our need. The Word has Divine power to:
Rescues sinners
Restores wandering saints
Revives weary warriors
Renews strength

 Jesus is the Word!

Consider these promises:
·         Redemption comes through the Word… 1 Peter 1:22-25
·         Power to heal and restore Hosea 6:1-3
·         Teaches, admonishes, and strengthens Colossians 3:16-17
·         2 Timothy 3:16-17: All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
·         Turns heaviness into praise Psalm 30:11-12
·         Our armor and protection Psalm 91:4
·         Luke 21:33: heaven and earth will pass away, but My Words will never pass away.
·     Do you need revival today? The spirit gives life, the flesh profits nothing – the Words I speak are spirit and they are life.~ John 6:63
o   Psalm 119:28: strengthen
o   Psalm 119:25, 37-40: revive
o   Psalm 119:41: mercy /salvation
o   Psalm 119:50: gives life
o   Psalm 119:77: comfort
o   Psalm 119:88: lovingkindness
o   Psalm 119:116: uphold
o   Psalm 119:133: direction

Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. ~ James 1:21

The power of Almighty God is in the Word! And that Word is in your hands NOW…
            What are you doing with the Word?

Jesus in the parable of the sower said the seed is the Word of God. Therefore you can rest assured the seed is always good. If we want to see our kids, our neighbors, our co-workers or anyone else in our lives saved our part is to sow!

God does the tilling of the heart! Yet so often when it’s the close family members we try to till and then wonder why there is no fruit.

So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. ~ Isaiah 55:11

Let your lifestyle PROVE that you believe there is life giving power in the Word? Then go out there and use it, sow, water, pull weeds, nurture, and watch how God brings forth fruit and enables us to reap the ones you love.
