The Applied Word of God - Part 5
Dirty Bible: Clean Christian! Clean Bible: Dirty Christian.
John 15.3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.
Some treat the Bible as so holy that they don’t read it. They light candles around it and worship it. We must know that there is ‘written word’ (Logos)and ‘spoken word’ (Rhema) of God.
It is the spoken word that brings change in our lives. We see an example of this in Genesis 1.3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. It was the spoken word of God that brought light into the dark world. The spoken word brings about change in the atmosphere and performs creative miracles.
Romans 10.9 says If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
When a sinner who is on his way to hell, is made to understand that Jesus is the only way, truth and life (John 14.9) and then asked to confess and believe in the Lordship of Jesus, his or her life takes a turn to heaven. The Word spoken by the sinner brings an eternal change in his life. His eternal destination changes. The Word of God has power to save, heal, deliver etc. It is when the Logos (written word) becomes Rhema ( spoken word), that changes happen.
Matthew 21.12,13 Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’
It is when Jesus called the temple, ‘a house of prayer’ that the atmosphere changed and we see in the next verse: verse 14 The blind and the lame came to him at the temple, and he healed them.
Till then it was a marketplace / a den of robbers. When Jesus loudly proclaimed the original purpose, its atmosphere changed: the Temple (a house of prayer) became a healing centre.
This can happen in our personal and corporate lives when we speak and declare the Word into negative situations.
