In a world of exaggerated power through electricity, combustion, and nuclear technology, it’s easy to see the Word of God as an “old fashioned guide" for living. Little more than a treasured Almanac. This kind of subtle, unabashed ignorance not only costs us the lasting Joys made available for life, but indeed is the misconception that will set us on a course of self-destruction.
Every sort of energy man enjoys, he claims as a trophy to his own ability. He is ignorantly, and willfully blinded to the Truth that everything: the seen, and the unseen, is all under the authority of the unchanging Word of God. Deep within we know this, though for many, that Knowledge is buried under years of pride and ignorance. "Good men" labor feverishly to prove the authenticity of the Word of God through clever apologetics - but the Word confidently exists on another plane, far superior to man's lofty efforts to prove IT'S Authority.
The Word of God is lavished upon those who seek it, and it effortlessly holds all things together. He is the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the end.
Oh the Peace, Love, and Joy, available to those who will focus on the unseen, underlying foundation of all power and existence. Fall on Its authority today and have your futile ignorance broken that you may be healed! Those determined to resist it will, by its very existence be crushed!
And whosoever shall fall on this Stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever It shall fall, It will grind him to powder.
~Matthew 21:44 KJV
The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the Word of our God shall stand for ever.
~Isaiah 40:8 KJV
While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
~2 Corinthians 4:18 KJV
For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him: and He is before all things, and by Him all things consist.
~Colossians 1:16-17 KJV
For in Him we live, and move, and have our being!
~Acts 17:28a KJV
And His name is called The Word of God.
~Revelation 19:13b KJV
